■ Game 1

▷ Smeb is Crazy and Rush is playing just like his nickname.

ㄴ KT’s upper half is crazy. Ucal is really the master of Taliyah.

ㄴ KT’s good.

ㄴ Deft: Score… We don’t miss you.

ㄴ AFs banned 3 mid lane champions but Ucal is playing awesome with Taliyah



▷ Rush's objective control is awesome. Even if that's because KT laners are pressuring like heck, but still, his macro is really good.

└ He went to Korea Univ. He's smart.



▷ Isn't it time to re-evaluate SKT? KT has gone crazy.

└ This is real.

└ LOL

└ We should talk about this after the winner is decided today.

└ SKT was just bad.

└ Don't say things like that. Are you an anti-fan? It was simply AFs > SKT in the spring. Don't make SKT fans look bad.



▷ After_Score_Becomes_Champion.jpg

└ Push X to send condolences.

└ RIP... We were happy becuase of you.



▷ ???: Get up and play against Smeb!

└ LOL

└ Marin is appearing too much

└ It looks like someone woke him up by slapping him in the face.

└ Is that Edo Tensei?LOL

■ Game 2

▷ In Large Stone We Trust

└ Stone! STONE!

└ They're playing Malphite against Camille. It seems better than I thought. I should try that.

└ Afreeca and their fun surprise picks.



▷ Don't let Rakan play TusiN.

└ Shouldn't it be don't let TusiN play Rakan?





▷ That last steal was awesome, but the gap was too wide to close up.





▷ KT’s 010 meta.jpg

└ They truly ARE a telecommunication company LOL

*Note: Korean mobile phone numbers start with 010.

└ If you write KT’s score from top to bottom, it becomes 010010010010010.(binary) What does that mean? I was looking for the answer, and I finally found out. If this number is changed to octal numbers, it becomes 22222. Score is always 2nd!

└└ So it’s a plot to summon Score?





▷ The KT ADC.gif

└ Isn’t able to kill Malphite

└ That’s what I thought of when I saw Ezreal at the end of the game.

└ Ahh… Marin...

└ KT LOL

└ ??? : Kiin that bad boy!

└└ Ashe 091’s victim of PTSD



▷ ??? : Mata, what is this stone! Clear out this rock, s**t!

└ LOL

└ There are perfect pictures of Deft proper for any situation LMAO



■ Game 3

▷ TusiN is AWESOME!

└ Just like his nickname, to throw Tu, body siN.

*Note: 投身(tóushēn) is pronounced TusiN in Korean.

└ He’s really no.1 in the LCK on initiating.

└ Don’t give TusiN a support champion

└└ Then give him what? LOL

└└ Now that’s a wise quote.

└└ Send him back to the jungle...





▷ Kuro’s item build is just inspiring. This will give a lot of inspiration in many games to follow.

└ Kuro’s really smart. Taliyah wasn’t able to do anything.

└ Kuro’s Banner of Command stopped Taliyah from roaming. Freakishly smart.

└ Taliyah’s roaming was sealed and the bottom tower got blown later.





▷ AFs draft was a piece of art. They pretended to play LeBlanc as Taliyah’s counter so KT banned LeBlanc. With Karma buying Banner of Command first, they didn’t let Taliyah roam anywhere. And they had Kai’Sa deal freely with Ornn, Karma and Alistar’s protection. Wow.

└ Banner of Command blocked KT’s all moves in the early game.

└ I think KT didn’t do bad against Banner of Command since they took the first tower and Taliyah took benefit at top, but one regretful moment near the dragon plus TusiN’s initiate…



▷ The performance was quite alright, so I don’t want to argue, but the last decision on taking the cloud drake wrecked the whole game.



▷Afreeca’s hidden Ace.jpg

└ He’s really hidden

└ Afreeca became a strong team as soon as Marin left

└ LUL

└ ??? : Hey, you. Get out of there.

└└ Afreeca became strong after Marin left, TSM became weak after Doublelift left.

■ Game 4

▷ Score, places ‘second’ in the semifinals.

└ You are a bad man!

└ Score lost to the ‘2nd’ team he met [in the postseason], who was placed in ‘2nd’ place.

└ When will Score finally be released?

└└ Up to when will this curse go on...

└└ I’m more worried about Yasuo in solo queues than Score not being able to win.





▷ Kuro carries the early game, and when Kuro’s not doing well, Kramer carries the team.

└ I think head coach iloveoov’s 10-man-roster was really successful. He’s a great head coach.





▷ Why didn’t they play Kai’Sa?

└ I think it’s because of the early laning phase. I think in this competition, KT proved that they can’t always win with one style. They always tried to snowball by early strong lane fights so the opponents are able to deal with the same situations. The strategy was too obvious and Kuro’s fast Banner of Command or picking Yasuo was countering KT’s obvious strategies.

└ KT was a snowball comp in all games but Kai’Sa isn’t suitable for snowballing.

└ The difference in preparation was too big.



▷ All playoff matches were lost of the teams that did what they always did. KSV went with their ADC and lost, SKT went with Bang and lost, and KT tried to roll snowballs like always and lost. I don’t know how the finals will go, but I think the team that brings up new picks will win.

└ Afreeca revealed many strategies today. How will the finals go?

└ The players’ performance is important, but Afreeca is the only team that feels easy during the draft, and the only team that tries new things. Although I support a different team, as an LCK fan, those new pick attempts are always welcome. I hope the finals ends in 3-2 score whoever wins, with unique picks.

└ AFs played as they always did too, with TusiN initiating. SKT’s top Cassiopeia against KSV was also what they always did, too. This is only focused on the result.

└└ Is it? It seemed new to me. Picks like Yasuo or buying Banner of Command as the first item. Of course players were good. Especially TusiN.

└└ Is preparing a new pick doing what they always did? Besides, Morgana isn’t a good champion to initiate.



▷ Head coach iloveoov is really brilliant. He didn’t have high APM when he was a pro Starcraft player, but he had his unique builds, and awesome improvising with strategy. Even in LOL, his draft and macro is awesome; he doesn’t rely on just one player. Other teams should learn that.



▷ The International Justice League of Super Aquaintances.jpg

└ What the h**l is this lol

└ That’s perfectly synchronized.

└ Spongebob?





▷ ??? : One down…

└ Kuro: Three to go

└└ LOL

└└ So this goes like that

└└ Old ROX competing like crazy!

└└ PraY is re-tying his shoelaces to run the match





▷ ??? : You beat SKT after I was gone?

└ Former KT Head Coach Lee Ji-hoon: You won’t even be able to be 2nd without me!

└└ And that really happened

└└ Actually he wasn’t the dark veil.

└└ Even when he was there, KT didn’t get 2nd?

└└└ KT came 2nd in 2016 Summer and 2017 Spring



▷ ??? : Why did you lose to a jungle like that?

└ Blank: Then why did you lose to a mid laner like that?

└└ This is priceless

└└ LUL

└└ Faker used to be a mid that beat the mid that beat a mid like that mid.

└└└ That was 2 years ago, but seeing Bang back at his prime, I think Faker will comeback to his old form in the summer.

└└└ Will Faker be able to come back? His performance is so disappointing recently.

└└└ Faker to the jungle like Ambition!

└└└ Bang was worse than Faker nowadays, but he retrieved his performance. I believe that Faker will be able to too.



▷ That person who came to KT to beat SKT.jpg

└ He really beat SKT. Only.

└ He beat SKT that he wanted to beat, but the other old ROX members head to the finals….
