They FINALLY Stopped The Faker Hype Train...

With League of Legends’ Mid-Season Invitational done and dusted, there’s simply too much to ignore.

A trophy wheeled into a practice room, a silent Busan auditorium, a new MSI world record, artificial ping, a T1 and Faker that came so close and then faltered… and a contentious interview answer from their coach.

We're just hoping that when it comes time for Worlds, we can get a rematch of these grand finals.

T1 got so used to sweeping the LCK competition mechanically that they forgot hone in on their macro and drafting for MSI. This should be an eye opener for the org so they can bounce back in time for Worlds.

I appreciate this channel for treating gamers with the same level of respect as mainstream media.

T1 refused to ban Gwen and that's why they lost

[benk-p]

T1 deserved to lose G5, RNG adapted and learned from the series, T1 was stubborn and cocky

[nasiannoodles]

T1 coach is the MVP for RNG after that game 5 draft

[Nefaliss]

T1 : Draft like complete idiots in Game 5 with Jayce, Jihn and Yuumi. Proceed to lose.

Sadly, we can't have a rematch of these two rosters at Worlds as Bin has been traded to BLG with Breathe replacing him on RNG.

Yknow what, I’m a t1 fan, but I’m glad they lost msi. Faker has suffered many devastating losses in his career, and he’ll guide the young ones to take it as a learning experience. Furthermore, this will fuel them, and come worlds, they’ll compete with a fire never seen before. 케리아님 힘내세요!

In 2021 MSI Final DK refused to ban Kaisa leading to Rng win. Again in 2022 T1 refused to ban Gwen. Arrogance shown by LCK is astounding. Hoping they would learn their lesson.

Wei played an amazing series and absolutely gapped Oner in the finals.

[TheMerin]

T1 staff has to make it apparent to their players to respect opponents and actually think about combos. Obviously good players but you cant look at that draft for game 5 and think it was either troll or completely disrespecting RNG

I love The Score Esports for what they have done with esports story lines in the past. However, It feels like they they are trying to push a new half baked story every week. What is even worse is when a story gets overhyped by the channel and doesn't pan out how they promote it. This makes looking back at amazing performances and moments feel super underwhelming and overlooked by pushed narratives that never followed through. I think we should be able to enjoy moments and performances for what they are instead of what they could have been. I do get that stakes play a large part in a story; however it should be put into perspective based on the outcome. The Score Esports should let these story lines play out so they can tell these narratives as they are not what they could have been in that moment. Just a couple of weeks ago we were watching Faker's return to the top and now we are watching a video on Faker's and T1's disappointing performance at MSI. I mean come on, just let him perform and if he does well then make a video on the season in its entirety cause looking back on hopeful videos is just depressing. I also want to note I think there is a difference between updating and reporting on storylines versus trying to tell and produce storylines in its entirety before they have panned out like The Score Esports has begun doing.

Let’s stop for a minute a give RNG the prop they deserve for this tough win at msi

[percebe]

He got beaten a long time ago before, this is a bit captious

[kylre]

MSI 2022 is a clown fiesta full of upsets and bad drafting

[clips]

T1 was overhyped LPL is still the region to beat

[SteadyBoom]

Just compare the this MSI interview vs S11 grand final interview, the difference of sportsmanship of Faker and Showmaker is just too notable.

[dsan]

Still waiting for coverage on how OG climbed loser's bracket in the Stockholm major and how Ceb playing as a stand in won it for them.

[bynflew]

They didn't even look sad when they lost. They looked more relieved that the expectations of them being unbeatable were gone

Just commenting to say I love the Ultros painting! Keep up the good work and thanks for the vid.
