This was (in my opinion) one of the best breakdowns I've ever seen - especially factoring in what lead to SKT even being able to go into the dark in midlane because of what they did botlane, one aspect I did not realise before. Thanks a lot & keep up the great work :)

Wolf deserves a huge credit for this play. Faker also said in an interview that it was his call. Plus he is the only one who hugs ex-SKT members :D

Probably one of the best plays in Worlds history hands down. Wolf is probably the hidden op player of SKT with his clutch engage calls. A very similar one happened at MSI as well with zyra. Was a pleasure to watch this live !

"The target is Meiko's Janna." Thank God. Someone who actually understands that you don't always focus the carry first. Sometimes it is, sometimes it's the highest threat to your carries like an assassin or the front line bruisers/tanks. Sometimes its the champion who is most detrimental to your team's strategy, in this case, the support.

2019 and I’m still watching lol
Simply the best demonstration of macro, micro, engage timings, and fundamentals.

The vision ploy by skt from bot to mid is actually genius, will implement in my ranked 5’s

How to beat SKT:
1. Be a Korean team
2. Good luck

Zirene + the breakdown = best content I watch on YouTube.

[BrownishSage]

Sometimes losing isnt the scariest thing. Its knowing that there was absolutely nothing you could've done to turn that fight.

[xorpe]

It's tradition to return here every few years

[goobyaluob]

This is the best analysis of a single play I’ve ever seen Jesus christ

[dirktrash]

Great breakdown, it's moments like these that show just how Korea is light-years ahead of all the other regions.

[Artaxerxes.]

Wolf doesnt have to prove anything now. He's easily the best support of all time

[vegard]

A breakdown on what makes Gigabyte Marine's highly aggressive style work would be really nice.

[TheMineA]

Zirene's voice is perfect. Calm collected and articulate. He explains things very well. I wanna see more Zirene content

[moonstruckcreatives]

its 2022 and still the most shocking comeback and gameplay I have ever witness. I still remember i shouted alone in my room when i saw this play for the first time.

[captianawesome]

I've been expecting this! I'm glad you guys did it. This is amazing not forgetting to mention the explanations and visuals are so on point everything is fluid

[juliantrejos]

Man I miss these, I wish they did more recent ones. This was such a good series, i dont even know why they stopped doing it.
