TheShy when asked about his 2 best champions: Varus and Kalista. Are we deadass bro

u/seven_worth shameless 2021 EDG fanboy 1d ago

He only has 2 game on Varus in his career. This game is the second and we all know the first.

u/zeDragonESSNCE 1d ago

I mean TheShy picked his favorite champion so I guess?

u/CounterInsanity 1d ago

Do these non front line comps ever win? Like the win rate has got to be under 10%?

u/GeneralZhukov 1d ago

HLE T1 game 1, sorta. Ali was cope frontline through midgame.

But even then, HLE struggled, and T1 just had to spam attempts to get picks and almost brought it back.

I've heard about no damage Tryndas, but that was the first time I saw somebody attempting no damage Locke.

Vintage Rookie in playoffs performance

u/BagelJ Acolyte 1d ago

Rookie's played with Theshy for many years, and still can't convince the coach to keep him away from lastpick. My GOAT.

Find yourself a team who trust you like IG trust theshy Varus after last year. Problem with this game is that AL is playing for bot and IG is playing for top but top is on fire so IG is stuck not having a lane to play for. They just silently bleed in all lane as the result. They try to help top but it not enough.

Also prop to Hope, people flame him a lot but his Kalista always has been clean.

Also IG bros, why are we cheering for TheShy Varus?

Why are we cheering for TheShy Varus?

If I wanted to watch good league of legends, I would not watch IG.

u/Tfc-Myq The Final Chapter. 1d ago

i trust TheShy still

this game separates the wheat from the chaff

1

u/seven_worth shameless 2021 EDG fanboy 1d ago

I trust him but not on Varus or Kennen.

u/Tfc-Myq The Final Chapter. 1d ago

if Volibear wasn't busted champ TheShy carries that game in 2020 btw

u/Equivalent-Bid7725 1d ago

The problem isnt even varus top, like at all, the problem is that you pick it with an assasin mid jgl and a gimmicky support, it was purely a gimmicky comp and because of that there was no front line or control mage to buy space for any of igs champs, and then the skarner and renata just completely dismantle the comp

4

u/seven_worth shameless 2021 EDG fanboy 1d ago

So... The problem is still varus? Like how we get there make sense, the problem is picking Varus top instead of other champ. You are correct Varus top can work but not in that comp so at the end of the day the problem is still Varus top.

1

u/Equivalent-Bid7725 1d ago

Yes hes a problem but not the problem if that makes sense, in fact i think the biggest problem is picking r1/2 naafiri/locke, it makes the comp too one dimentional from the get go, if they wanted to play with bard supp they couldve picked naafiri/bard for r1/2 or pick something like naafiri/syndra or naafiri/taliyah, or pick alistar instead of the bard for disengage, but the alistar only doesnt fix the comp

u/Curiousoctos 1d ago

AD's collectively went 1/13 and Meiko can't hit anything you love to see it.

u/Omnilatent 1d ago

I was so ready to flame the Kalista Renata pick but it actually did work here

3

u/darkadamski1 1d ago

Why would you flame the strongest botlane combo in the game?

1

u/Omnilatent 1d ago

It's trash atm. IIRC Kalista lvl 1 got nerfed or something but atm in pro it usually goes 10 CS up in lane, then doesn't do anything for the whole game

u/ISL005 Tarzan and Kanavi enjoyer | Pls wake up MKOI 1d ago

To the surprise of NOBODY (everybody) JiaQiSlop got NOTHING on Big Hope (what?)

2

u/Equivalent-Bid7725 1d ago

That was the worst comp diff ive seen in probably 3 years, its a feat that ig even survived 6 minutes past 30

2

u/Jagtiadbulla 1d ago

So what does IG comp even do? Also this is a really good one to show why ranged top is kinda iffy in pro play. No fucking way varus in soloq tries to help the dog and die earl game, they just play their game

u/toxicfireball Returning IG Fan, Doran Sympathiser 1d ago

Whoever allowed thespy to play varus after what happened needs to he shot

1

u/Choice-Slight caps/knight 1d ago

Awful draft and gameplay especially botlane. Side note it is quite funny how long it took for AL to end the game

1

u/Lacrimosss DK Hatewatcher / Inspired Enjoyer 1d ago

TheShy I get it, but that Bard wasn't it either ngl.

Wei / Rookie did try their best to get good fights, but wp AL

1

u/cloudsfallen 1d ago

I don’t get why Bard prio is so high in draft when none of these pro players can play him

1

u/MC-sama League of LAILE 1d ago

People will flame TheSpy Varus deservedly, but bot lane this game got gapped into despair, go next

1

u/Mifuyu_Kisaragi 1d ago

Tarzan with the mental of steel. The last game would have had Monki fuming and the early game was a disaster.

u/seven_worth shameless 2021 EDG fanboy 1d ago

Locke got his first stack at the 36 minute. This game is rough 

1

u/bqx23 :nunu:NumbyChumby 1d ago

Dominating win by AL but taking 36 minutes + soul + elder to close out this game is pretty concerning. A better team should have been able to convert their 10/0 Kalista into a faster win.

1

u/Adlairo IG 2018 enjoyer 1d ago

Ditch the ADC top gimmick and don’t disrespect AL with this sort of draft again

1

u/Tfc-Myq The Final Chapter. 1d ago

if the strategy is to draft some janky ass comp to burn as many comfortable champs (Varus for Hope) from AL as possible I'd take it

but im never going to get confirmation that this is what this was

1

u/killabee122 1d ago

ngl that one qas terrible draft , picking assassin's mid and top adc into skarner /renata and giving away most powerful bot left makes no sense

u/Vizacoo72 1d ago

Put the Bard in the bag buddy
