Back when the game is so intense. Skt fought against top teams rng in quarterfinals, Rox in semi finals and ssg in the finals. All those team can win finals easily.
But game times were longer and riot wanted game to be quicker which is understandable according to today’s game fundamentals. Gaming also changed with years but yeah those times were hella good :’)
The game is Gold, back in 2016 I already know that it's going to be a 3 - 0 win for skt but ssg live for their reputation and comeback from gold behind and even in the 4th game but they fall in the 5th game by pressure and buffs they collapsed they could win for my opinion but still it's skt win the game is so good
Nowadays , best of five ended in a 3-0 sweep , not much five game series already , hopefully T1 can win again hahaha so many strong team now , LPL , LEC
Even tho I am super sad that SSG lost(CoreJJ and Crown fan),I am also happy.Korea was just stomping every worlds since s3(SKT,then SSW with only 2 losses in the tournament,then SKT with 1 loss).Finally western teams grew up and performed well(CLG at MSI,going to finals,then CLG beating ROX,while Huhi was bottom 3 midlaners in NA,he stepped up at worlds,and also TSM smashing SSG in groups).Finally teams give to SKT a run for their money.Both ROX and SSG deserve to be no.1.
I always gets nervous when SKT fights top tier teams during this their dynasty era, but I always tend to forget that they're "The undisputed best team in the world"
@@EthanJayy They let go of bengi coz he's not playing well durng regular seasons. But yeah. one of the worst decisions. I became a jungler bcos of him and seeing him leave skt that time was truly heartbreaking.
During the fight at 20:10, Faker had his flash up. If he didn't hold it he'd actually live, and they'd won that fight. You can see by how long everyone stays alive on SKT after that, and how much health they have. Faker being alive would've been so much damage, which probably would've made this series a 3-0. Shows how much a flash can mean, especially when Faker not flashing fast enough in 2017 cost them the 3rd game.
Re-watching these series, Ive just noticed how bad Blank was, never won any series, Bengi had to come in to save at the end of the day. Same with SKT vs Rox 2016 semi. Im wondering who made the decision that he could be replacement for Bengi. Such a bad investment
Let's not talk trash about Blank like that. Bengi had a bit of a slump in 2016, and Blank did his best to jungle for SKT. People seem to conveniently forget that Blank contributed a lot to SKT's domestic success in 2016, and that SKT won their first MSI trophy with Bengi on the bench the whole tournament.
This is easily the best series of League of Legends ever.
Maybe even the greatest e-sports final ever.
Skt vs Rox tigers was better
Og lgd ti8 final
@pantelismichael8756 nope. SKT T1 vs SSG still much much better
OG vs LGD in TI8 & [A] vs NAVI in TI3 are up there
Idk why I just watched this once again, but I got even goosebumps just by watching it again. HUGE series man.
T1 dynasty will rule once again.

I was cheering for Samsung but seeing Bengi, Faker and kkoma all super happy was great
38:19 I swear Faker never gets hit by Cass ult lol
wow....... faker...
the true highlight is faker using a skin
This is how a final should look like not just a one side game like these day.....if u lost the early game u lose the game not fun at all
Was another meta. I also find this sooo much fun to watch, didnt remember that this final was that much intense
But game times were longer and riot wanted game to be quicker which is understandable according to today’s game fundamentals. Gaming also changed with years but yeah those times were hella good :’)
This series is underrated.yeah it's because it's after ROX series but for me it still be top 3 best series of all time and best world finals.
am i the only one who thinks that the animation of elder and nash was awesome? on the stage
23:49 Great opportunity for Faker to ult, wonder why he didn't.
31:12 Great commentary!
HO-HOLY! xD
I didn’t remember Ambition and Bengi were so excellent. But Bengi was still the Omega.
G5. Ruler overextending to try to kill Bang resulted in SKT getting Baron, Elder and a 10k gold advantage. Crazy how such a tiny mistake cost so much.
The game is Gold, back in 2016 I already know that it's going to be a 3 - 0 win for skt but ssg live for their reputation and comeback from gold behind and even in the 4th game but they fall in the 5th game by pressure and buffs they collapsed they could win for my opinion but still it's skt win the game is so good
Bengi is a hero
Good job samsung won skt in 2017. I really wanted then to win in 2016 too. Finally I am happy.
Nowadays , best of five ended in a 3-0 sweep , not much five game series already , hopefully T1 can win again hahaha so many strong team now , LPL , LEC
Worlds 2016 was the best

And also,other midlaners are catching Faker.Like Crown.Holy shit he was a beast in the series
Spriteful Meto So do You say Crown isn't at the level of faker?LOL
Not at all, he's a viktor one trick pony.
Arthur Fawkes He has played well in many champion like cassiopeia.But i agree,his champion pool is weak
Cimpoesu Scobi He has played well because the mid-laners he fought was too busy clowning around making mistakes; Ryu, Jensen.
No Bengi, no Worlds Championship
True
True

why i havethe idea they sold over the two games to make it more interesting
31:06 this is why wolf's the best support
T1 gonna take 2022 championship let's gooo
Skt and SSG go and put on one of the most exciting finals ever then go and put people to sleep the next year
lol well SKT's team just wasnt as good as they normally were like Huni and Blank werent great and tbh letting bengi go was the worst thing they did...

I missed how they always reacted or shout whenever Faker dies in the game
Faker is so dominant back then.
Faker is like another one he happy but not like he was happy at his first world championship L.O.L
I missed this kind of match unlike today 2019 team ended the game so quick
Showed the skill gap in this year's finals
i really miss Faker at this level...
28:28 bengi and duke brain as 1
Some of these calls from the casters are completely wrong. Omegalul.
everything is too intense and fast, it is not surprising to have them make mistakes
SKTelecom T1 vs Samsung Galaxy Rematch Finals this Saturday Nov 4
uuuh skt won, nobody could exoect that...
Can someone link me the conference video? It was on youtube gaming, but it is offline now :(
When Faker picks Ryze! "Let's play the game"
