0:40 Notice how Azir dash creates a stop animation for like 2 frames between E and Q dash. Faker is the only player who waits till the last split second before pressing Q to maximize distance, on every occasions. Nobody else does it because your Q may not proc if you press it too late. It's so beautiful. He may not be the same player he was 5 years ago, but his level of detailed orientation in this game is still unmatched.
U can still utilize that dash because the Q dash when ur in the E animation can reach maximum cause azir's range in the Q depends in how the soldier is far or close to him when u E
Idk about when this clip was made, but as an azir player I think riot implemented a buffer time to that mechanic. Because of MS, plenty of times I get max range dashes where I q so late in the combo, that my azir reaches the soldier and then blinks to the soldier at the end of the q's trajectory.
Did you even watch the series? Chovy was performing every single game. I'm a huge fan of T1 and Faker but you're delusional to say Faker is a better mid than Chovy at the moment.
I'm a huge T1 fan bro but I know that Faker is no longer at his peak. He may pull off some best ults like he always did back then but Chovy, Knight, Showmaker and Doinb are the current best mid laner. But Faker will always be the best of all time.
@@rhino7915 nah i wastched the whole series. Faker is still the best as a team fight midlaner. Chovy does his chovy things be ahead and go raid boss mode on with that sylas. But yeahp better mid wins like when chovy was still in griffin and got 3-1 in favor of skt. How can you say that chovy is the best when they didn't win at all. That's clearly better mid wins. Chovy didn't made flashy wins, the won game 3 coz t1 messed up their flank and fall prey to hanwa. Game 4 they won coz T1 made the wrong call and left faker b lining to dragon lmao. Game 5 was just faker doing bird man things, azir himself.
As a fan of Faker since the first days, he is still worlds contender but I don't think he has much of a chance to win, he is still extremely good and does things that only him does, but he isn't as consistent as he used to be. I don't think T1 will be able to beat FPX or DK, don't know about MAD though, might do, might not, i hope they will.
No, is from today ( or yesterday depending on where you live) guma played the whole series. (I guess coaches were not impressed by teddy’s performance on the finals or something)
Teddy's style is inappropriate in this series, they understood that Faker or midlane is always pushed (Chovy was too smurfed in lane). They need aggressive botlaners who are able to push or initiated an early teamfight to gain advantages.
@@pda32301 No? If anything an EU midlaner would have went too aggressive instead and died. LPL and LEC are far more aggressive compared to the LCK, if it is better or not we will see at Worlds!
@@Name-yo6lf EU mid laner are hot garbage compared to eastern mids. The best mids are humanoid and nisqy which is saying a lot. Never forget craps getting demolished by TF into a hard counter match up.

the patience to hold azir's ult till the end of the teamfight

I don't know much azir mechanics but it might be a thing that makes fakers Azir so much better than others

i try to do this in practice tool and i just can't lmao

That fade tho. Better mid wins B05 just like in SKT era too when Chovy was with griffen and got 3-1

@MAD Fangays When it comes to laning yes and 1v1 but teamfighting? Shot calling? Playing with vision? Hell no.
@@skdonniee better team?????
Haters : Faker is washed up LUL.
Faker : so anyway, I started blasting.
10 yrs later, still got that in him
2023: *wins Worlds*
2024 back to back 😂
Anyone else back here after seeing faker’s insane Azir ult on ruler?
Story of this year for T1. Faker has to pull off miracle plays time and time again or the team implodes.
They love to throw nowadays 😂😅
@@hawktyphon7208 or very nearly at least.
No true. Keria is carrying most of the games. Gumayusi is insanely good. Canna has gotten way better than before. And oner is 50/50 int or carry
@@Chainedlol *copium*
@@Chainedlol gumayusi ezreal was insanely trash tho
The Crab Emote wars like..Chovy showing his Respect towards Faker. bevor he died :'D
Observer smurfing
LCK observers are probably the best. They are all high elo, it's part of the requirement
LCK Observers are veterans who have been observers since the Starcraft league days
Jonna Strong
@@Frandahab yep they have a minimum master rank requirement for soloq.
meanwhile lcs uses silverlings
I mean in this clip they just move camera and zoom in and out? Or is there something i missed?
And then pseudo analysts say Faker is washed up and not worlds contender.
Hes still very good but not the best anymore and one thing is Faker is a team player now he used to be a solo carry player

@@erberlon fpx😂😂 lmao ,most overrated team, hypercarry doinb ,lmao.
@@Thewanderingsurgeon sure kid lmao
@@erberlon they lost in the finals again, fpx overrated trash team
Stop the hate and comparison lol, both Faker and Chovvy played awesome and showed excellent gameplay :)
2 years later: 5 player from this match won worlds
Nope, 4
Tbh the entire series was decided by which midlaner will carry the most
Oner at this point was a bit shaky but having canna in your team was pure trolling
i've never seen a kennen player that bad
Faker slap chovy
upload his ult in game 4 that was crazy
Chovy love his crab emote 😂
Where is Teddy??
best azir of the world
bdd exists
You never heard of easyhoon
im a massive faker fan but Easyhoon is easily the best Cassieopia and Azir in the world, better than Faker on those 2 champs
@@dankshadow5665 bruh... BDD? That legendary Azir ult against T1? Poggers.
@@StickMasterKai Easy hoon easy life but hes retired
faker what was that
Riot reallt needs to make that Faker azir skin!!
There is already
@@naviremsapostle1298 it's not fakers skin. It's easyhoon. Back then faker got subbed out because easyhoon was a better Azir player
GOD!! Why it's so hard to be a T1 fan 😥😥 sometimes theyre hard smurfing and sometimes hard throwing 😅😂
Why is guma playing instead of teddy? Is this an old clip?
no guma been playing since finals teddy was performing bad again after gen'g
No, is from today ( or yesterday depending on where you live) guma played the whole series. (I guess coaches were not impressed by teddy’s performance on the finals or something)
But teddy didn't even play that bad though, it was mainly draft diff imo

@@devilishnessx459 yes imagine 3 bans just for teddy. They focused drafting and banning against teddy.
I mean hle inted there
Nah HLE has the right choice of doing a 2 v 4 there but faker hard smurfed
An EU midlaner would've flashed away rather than go in there

If by HLE you mean Keria as well from g3 to g5 then yea I see what you mean.
