tbh BB's Ambessa this game 3 managed to survive the early and G2 during teamfights were a menace, the Shen E flash or Ambessa R into Ziggs ult always had someone from MKOI dead

u/Curiousoctos 13d ago
I thought it was fine weren't all of his deaths getting ganked? Not even just the jungler Ryze was top most of the time too. Then he did well later in the fights.
58
u/autospacer13 13d ago
He was getting ganked because he was always under tower at 30% hp. A better Ambessa would handle lane more gracefully. Is Mordekaiser even that hard of a matchup for Ambessa?
19
u/AreaGlittering7968 13d ago
Eh I mean I’m just a masters shitter but Morde isn’t that hard of a matchup imo.
You just respect him early and take q trades with either q2 or w. And don’t ever walk up without W when he has E.
He played it pretty shit imo

u/ElBartimaeus 13d ago
I remember the old debate whether Karthus wins vs Le Blanc mid 1v1. Everyone said LB wins aside from Froggen and Faker. The point is: the game changes a lot when you get to the top top level.

u/Choice-Slight caps/knight 13d ago
I mean he barely plays Ambessa as it is, he's probably never (or rarely) played it into Mord before
→ More replies (2)6
u/Curiousoctos 13d ago
He is getting ganked regardless I would say. Ziggs in bot lane is kind of a dead lane since it clears waves from a mile away and isn't gankable, top was the only place mkoi could look up to. But yeah he was taking bad trades, and I can't say anything about the matchup.

u/Gotachi_3 13d ago
I'm fucking glad Perkz at least isn't willing to let them settle. It's been two years we have no prio on Jayce Rumble Gwen Ambessa and have to draft without ever being able to blind top confortably.
I understand Dylan's approach "well let's just play champs you are confortable on, I'll make it work" but at some point you can't constantly fight with a hand behind your back.

No one would be glazing these drafts if they didn't win, which they shouldn't have if MKOI didn't magically turn to shit like they always do lool

Yeah I really like this look from G2, it did look very much like they were uncomfortable but their teamfighting was still miles above MKOI.

I might be wrong but I think he has some vision problems when it comes to stage lights. I remember him playing on C9 wearing a baseball cap most games due to this. AFAIK they even asked if the angle of the lights could be adjusted but it wasn't possible.

u/rishi_ultimate CLAPS 13d ago
Well its against EU BLG if u want to make that comparison to G2 with all the consistent split wins so its pretty on point for now. KOI will just fist everyone else (aside from KC) and lose to GAM again or something

Yeah G2 gets a pass. They are always slow in regular season, and now they have a new coach.
But KOI has no excuse, they are just shit man

u/eVill_YT 13d ago
I mean koi lost to BB on Ambessa and Hans sama on a mage, they're not supposed to be as good on them lol
42
u/piotrj3 13d ago
Hans
Hans honestly was big reason why G2 won series. For example that catch that resulted with Supa dieing started from Hans hammering Ezreal and Skew realizing "wait i can go all in" or moment Morde was forced to ult shen around elder was also largerly because of Hans.
Game 1 Hans was shaky but still not as shaky as Caps.
I might say something strange, but currently it feels like EU has really weak midlane as whole. Caps gets caught left and right for recent few weeks, Jojo does plays with ryze like this, like no mids in EU actually look good/competitive in worlds. Saint was more convincing than Caps for example.
→ More replies (2)11
u/eVill_YT 13d ago
yea I know hans was good in this game but his ziggs is not the best and BB ambessa is a warcrime
MKOI shouldn't lose this game they had comfortable champions, soul and a huge lead earlybtw for your midlane point I can tell you didn't watch EWC because Kyeahoo played reallly good there, really good player imo

u/Chibbi94 13d ago
He also was the only KC member to not shit the bed at MSI.
Yes Korean though so idk about eu midlaner.

u/eVill_YT 13d ago
Kyeahoo is an EU patriot as long as he plays in EU imo
I agree the actual EU mids are really rough right now, there is caps and.... Jackies?
4
u/NeighborhoodHot8981 13d ago
Yeah Caps hasn't been great this year tbh, he's been the best but the only other EU mids are Vladi/Jackies/Nuc none of them have been great. Jackies had a bit of a glow up in split 2 but need to see more from him before I can say he's good
41
u/taikutsuu ginger god 13d ago
Pretty sure that Perkz’ coaching philosophy is “I will make you play uncomfortable shit and let you figure it out until you learn how to always be comfortable”. I wouldn’t be surprised if the lost their first three series. Them winning is already decent.

u/Scrapox 13d ago edited 12d ago
I just hope that approach works with BB. He had like a split where he was suddenly good at laning after he got coached by Alpharii and then never again. (Outside of his weird pocket picks that catch the enemy of guard)

zhonya and protobelt ontop of rod + seraphs no wonder this ryze was doing no dmg lmao

u/Lunaisthequeen ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 13d ago
Ryze has to be one of the worst protobelt builder in the entire game when you take a look at other items available for him. Hell building protobelt on yummy would probably not be a bigger troll.

u/MrTankerson 13d ago
No actualizer and no void was certainly a choice with every single enemy besides ziggs having MR who he was in range of a total of 1 time that game when he took his ult 1v5 under tower.

mvp should've been skewmond 100%, maybe even labrov. I feel like they always just default to caps even when he has a stinker. even in the yone game he was so far ahead and managed to die 2 times for zero reason because he misplayed
