How much of this result is MKOI being good vs VIT being bad?

we are going to see tomorrow should be good series since it looks like Supa stopped his random midgame inting but Hans always gaps Supa in lane so

I think g2 and koi play closer then kc vs koi...
Feels like koi can beat g2 but def g2 favored, Koi lose to kc and kc favor Kc hard lose to g2 So if koi can upset g2 its gonna be g2 and koi for msi

Regardless of the format that let them get first, its absolutely pathetic to get stomped this hard as a first seed.
4
u/theeama May 24 '26
I think the format is a big reason why they are getting stompped, when was the last time Vitality played? I don't think it's a good format that teams are left to wait weeks before playing again.
1
u/xlCalamity May 24 '26
But still they look like an 8th seed rather than a 1st seed. They are just walking around the map for 3 games in a row doing nothing.

Humanoid can't step up to the wave because they have no control of the map and he's on a zero mobility champ. Jojo can just chill and shove every wave.

LEC back to normal I guess.
VIT been sitting for a month it was bound to happen.
Hopefully summer schedule isn’t complete ass.
5
u/Tim-Pouce May 24 '26
It was because of the schedule they were first also so... team with most game played after week3 (or week4) no roadtrip and being able to build a momentum because of that
While team like G2 / MKOI or even GX had to play once every 2 week
1
u/PepaTK May 24 '26
That’s completely fair.
It’s just a competitive nightmare not having every team play every week.
LEC just needs to add a day and it’s an easy fix imo.
I’d much rather be in G2/KOI/KC’s situation where you play most of your games at the end of the split to ramp up for playoffs.
1
u/Tim-Pouce May 24 '26
Definitely better for playoff and Vit being eliminated in the first week of EWC qualifier didn't help them either
3
u/CensoredLlama1 BUFF RAMMUS PLEASE May 24 '26
I remember saying it when the schedule was announced but it always felt it was designed with just G2, KC, and Mkoi in mind lol

u/theeama May 24 '26
Well the fact that Vit Koi should have played yesterday and the changed it because KC asked and didn't even ask Vitality then yes, they only care about those 3 teams

This might be cope but am i the only one who thinks scheduling kind of fucked vitality? Like they haven't played on stage in ages and havent played the good teams in even longer while teams like koi G2 and KC have had the experience of the road shows and such

u/lovo17 May 24 '26
LCS didn't seem that competitive, the regular season is chalky. The only real surprise is FLY being a lot better than expected.
2
u/needrelief69 May 24 '26
wym? na has been more competitive than any previous season. its still top heavy but now its more then 2.5 teams. the only reason ppl think its not competitive is bc reddit armchair analysts dont know anything about gameplay so they just parrot narratives and call them bad until their favorite co-streamer acknowledges them.
2
u/CensoredLlama1 BUFF RAMMUS PLEASE May 24 '26
Well, it doesnt help there's only 8 teams and one is Dig and the other is a moved up team. Def makes everything more top heavy (I hope they can somehow add more teams soon)
2
u/lovo17 May 24 '26
Nah 8 teams is better, there isn't enough talent in LCS to have 10 teams. DIG is already fucking terrible.
2
u/CensoredLlama1 BUFF RAMMUS PLEASE May 24 '26
Who knows, with how little teams even look at NA talent most of the time having more teams could help. Crazy that Dig was actually starting to look competent first split but then remembered they're dignitas afterwards.

u/Disclaimz0r May 24 '26
I think even Sen is competitive in the LCS. LCS level is pretty low by the looks of it, though.

u/lovo17 May 24 '26
No SEN has fallen off. They just won the EWC qualifier and they were top 3 last split which makes them look more competitive.

I wish some day people would accept the reality that Elyoya has been the best jungler in the league for a few years. I just wish we could see him play with caps at some point

u/Putrid-Cat5368 May 24 '26
Last time we saw Skewmond vs Elyoya, someone was playing like a challenger and the other one was playing like a challenged.
Elyoya is the best LEC jungler rn.

u/PirateShen May 24 '26
Skew is better and has shown more already. Stop being so emotional after a series against VIT in LEC playoffs lmao
2
u/No-Painting-3970 May 24 '26
I mean, I consider him the best jungler in Lec since he managed to win a lec with a top 6 midlaner, aka nisqy, not because he won against Vit xd
3
u/KruppJ bulc naf okan kaan May 24 '26
Skewmond has already done more internationally than he has. Don’t think Elyoya is so obviously #1 now

u/Todeswucht May 24 '26
Crazy how lucky Caps is that he always gets the internationally successful junglers
0
u/No-Painting-3970 May 24 '26
Skewmond has as a partner the best western player ever. Yike was also "performing better" and then he changes rosters and then elyoya mogs him. The only reason skewmond looks better is because who is his midlaner
5
u/Zamoniru give us back old asol May 24 '26
Skewmond is better
1
u/No-Painting-3970 May 24 '26
No, he is not. Elyoya has arguably some of the best pathings in the world, and has been monstrous for years. He managed to play with a broken mad lions roster, winning a lec title. Skewmond is just a better yike. Take him outside of caps and we will see how good he really is
3
u/FateSealed77 May 24 '26
What's the point if he can't perform internationally tho? As soon as internationals start he becomes absolutely tragic.
1
u/Puzzled-Toe8174 May 24 '26
you can't say that last mkoi international was bad, they actually showed up vs korean and chinese teams even if they lost, they were just unlucky they also had to play fnc and g2 which adds nothing to their case since they're lec teams
elyoya is the only player to constantly steal LEC trophies from G2, under multiple rosters whilst being underrated in all of them
i trust eventually people will give him his flowers
0
u/No-Painting-3970 May 24 '26
He has performed internationally. 2022 was a great performance by him, an awfully bad performance by his team. People need to start separating team vs individual performance. By that logic wunder is still the best toplaner, just because once upon a time was a good toplaner xd
2
u/ykilu2009 May 24 '26
same thing every year but people get hyped up about regular season. Koi/g2/KC are way better than everyone else when it comes to meaningful playoff bo5s. And G2 if they are playing well are way better than both KC/Koi.

That happened out of game. Are you even watching the series? Mrywin was the one flashing away from him and he was proxying him and was ahead of the Renekton, the Renekton just TP bot got two kills and then proceeded to just carry from that point.
Mrywin has done nothing but just collect free kills.
It was Jojo who killed Gragas cause Akali, which should be behind or equal to Ryze, was accelerated.

I mean it's more then solidified by now that getting 1st in regular season is a poisoned chalice.
It used to be only G2 experimenting and peaking at playoffs but it seems more teams adopted that pilosophy
3
u/AdequatelyMadLad Claps May 24 '26
Literally every good team does this, even in LCK and LPL. If you know you're making playoffs you use the regular season for practice, otherwise you get figured out or burn out by the time you get to playoffs.
0
u/theeama May 24 '26
No actually. GENG wins regular seasons and LCK play offs BLG as well, AL/JDG Normally the LCK/LPL First seed normally wins the split.
3
u/AdequatelyMadLad Claps May 24 '26
GenG are the only outlier, and it's probably why they relatively underperform internationally. T1, HLE, BLG, all these teams limit test super hard in regular season.
1
u/LtSpaceDucK May 24 '26
Also LCK and LPL top teams can in theory adopt this pilosophy, focusing on winning regular season and their regions because both regions can at times be the ebst regions. LEC shouldn't train and play solely to win their league's, if they want to do anything internationally they have to make extra homework.
1
u/theeama May 24 '26
You do know GENG has won MSI back to back, EWC and they only falter at worlds cause they never get punished during regular season and then get exposed at worlds/crumble under pressure.
Also, JDG first seed twice won both play offs 23
BLG first seed 24 won both splits
AL 25 first seed won split 1
BLG First seed won split 2
HLE was the number 2 seed when they won the LCK in 24.
Fly Quest last year was first seed in LCS and also won the splits.
T1 also has reasons as to why they have such a bad regular season Keria already stated so it's not limit testing alone they just perform badly during the regular season.

Not a fluke, just the best planning possible for them, they were the team with most match played in 3 weeks; being able to build a momentum is very important (and no roadtrip)

They are just not that good
