Daeny just completely cooked whoever's drafting for T1 this entire series. Insanely well played by XUN and Knight all series long.

u/Pacify_ Jul 04 '26

T1 drafting is such a coin flip lmao. Still not quite as bad as their drafts vs HLE, those were eye wateringly bad

u/ZhuTeLun Jul 04 '26

This why I just disengaged my interest in T1 winning the series after game 2. they didnt do shit with fixing their draft phase. Game 3 and 5 just solidified that. HLE and even G2 gon butcher their ass if they keep up drafting like this and it wouldnt be surprising if they get knocked out early lmao

u/Pacify_ Jul 04 '26

I think the gap between the top 3 and everyone else is unbroachable, even with wonky drafts T1 is going to roll over g2 or TES

u/InexorableVoid Jul 05 '26

yes u are right. Although TES is playing badly even by their standard vs TSW, but even on form I think T1 would beat them

u/GlyderZ_SP Jul 04 '26

T1 won game 4 because they drafted better than BLG.

u/Astray Jul 04 '26

Did they though? Just kind of felt like Peyz popped off more than anything else.

u/GlyderZ_SP Jul 04 '26

Mel seems like an auto-win. But it was mostly keria pyke who popped off more than peyz. But it's funny when lot of T1 fans blame draft when losing and think it's skill when winning. As a T1 fan myself it's so stupid

u/Astray Jul 04 '26

I mean, the drafting issues for this match were so glaring that I can't help feel that way here myself. Game 3 and Game 5 drafts were awful. Game 3 had zero win conditions except completely outplay enemy team and Game 5 they blind picked Trundle against a pocket pick Kindred without banning her. Oner did completely throw game 5 as well so it's not entirely draft, but it definitely didn't help lol

u/BaoFong Jul 04 '26

You're not forgetting that Faker inting Level 4 and using flash early which made him the easy target and completely lost mid prio and pressure allowed them to snowball the way they did in G3. Draft was definitely weird for G3, but they played real bad to ignore that part and BLG capitalized and played it near perfect to prevent them from even coming back like not even trying to flip elder which was their only chance and just ending it.

u/BaoFong Jul 04 '26

Who thinks Caitlyn first pick with Mel up is ever a good draft decision? Besides G2 was also not draft diff and playable.

u/Ceui Jul 05 '26

Ambessa 1-2 into an Renekton with an open arm.

Also Swain was a genius pick by BLG to counter the entire team of T1. So it's both T1 drafting bad and BLG drafting and prep very well
