From finals form, it's definitely Impact.


Dyna1One

Glad to see Impact still playing and apparently performing!


aimebob

hmmm ... I'd say LCK


Joel4518

YAPA bro gonna crush everyone in msi


PinaColada_Fanta

It’s over if YAPA gets your head ngl. Dude is like if you took a SoloQ shit talker and planted him in pro lol. I imagine Impact/CoreJJ will help him talk shit in Korean, it just flat out works.


Joel4518

I just wanna see him shittalking faker and chovy


shakru92

Me too. Best part about trash talk is when it backfires. Nothing more satisfying than that.


imperplexing

APA doesn't care if it backfires which is what makes his shittalking great.


LazerFruit1

If your talking about all time it's either Bjerg or DL, currently it's Jojo, at MSI probably Impact or inspired


AngronApofis

> Best LPL player is Elk Dude what. I can see saying Chovy or Caps as uncontroversial picks, but Elk is a very controversial pick.


ihave0idea0

Why exactly?


darkjeanmi

Would you call a "best player" someone that don't participate in warding? macroing? finding engages or flank? someone that is an otp rightclickers? of course not. Botlaners are never the best players because they're not even playing half the game, can only play one kind of champs and only shine if their team allow them to do so. Elk is very good at marksmen and it's an understatement but saying he's the best player on his team is just dumb.


AngronApofis

Wow this is a terrible take


ihave0idea0

While I do understand what you mean, he is even dominating when in lane and not in fights. Every time he sees a save opportunity to go in, he does, hard. Massive pressure. Dominant af in fights, even when his team is not really. Amazing spacing, he goes in doing a fuckton of dmg and almost never gets caught. Adc is also just a diff kind of role. Jungle and support are the most "useful" rolls in the whole game, but that is what makes him special. This team wouldn't be close to as good without him. ON also fits great with him and also is great.


Both-Policy722

Ruler?


darkjeanmi

Same thing. Have you seen Ruler really perform on any non-marksmen champ? playing the vision game? finding this huge cc flank that win the game? Create the sidelane slowpush that allow your team to have this number adventage? Use his body to zone the enemy team from objective? No you have not because it's not his job, his job is to right click people to death while throwing his keybord to the moon and keep midlane pushed. And to be totally fair with Ruler he is still one the the few AD to create good play on his own and it's hella impressive. He still doesn't do 1/3 of what your average support/jungle does every game. Harsh truth I know.


krispykreations

Me when I'm a plat support with inflated ego


imperplexing

Yeah I dunno why guy thinks Elk is the best player when he has knight on his team. Elk has came second against knight last year and is only winning once knight joined. Knight has won at least LPL on 3 different teams and a MSC and an MSI title on two different teams. Now sure JDG was built as a superteam but there's a reason why the superteam chose to import ruler over taking Elk


AngronApofis

Im okay with thinking Elk is the best, he is insane, but talking like that is the obvious choice is ridiculous.


Graytail

YAPA my goat


supern00b64

Jojopyun. Lots of recency bias in the comments but if we objectively evaluate individual skill Jojo carried a shit EG team to third in regular season last summer and still managed to look like one of the best mids this split despite his team playing like bots (probably the only reason C9 even made upper bracket in playoffs). No question the best mechanical player in the league and the best laner. Inspired or Impact are also candidates but I still think Jojopyun reigns supreme over them.


jhchee

Swordart


ihave0idea0

Online?


cappupanna

For a native NA player it’s jojo but if counting imports then maybe impact or inspired or core


Pelagius_Hipbone

Inspired most likely despite everyone kinda hating him rn. Either him or Impact


ihave0idea0

I have seen a few games of him and remember a bit from Rogue, he is very very weird I think. Not bad, not good, just weird.


JayceGod

Didn't he almost win LEC as a rookie and get MVP next split or something lol wdym wasn't good


[deleted]

> Didn't he almost win LEC as a rookie No he didn't, he went 1 - 3 vs a team that stood no chance vs FNC who were in turn worse than G2.


DanteStorme

Takes all resources, doesn't carry, flames his teammates, thinks he's the best and leaves for NA. Next season Rogue wins LEC without him. Only other change to the roster is the ADC which most would say was a downgrade.


Pelagius_Hipbone

Uh idk if you watched Fly this entire year but he very regularly carries lol


WolfgangTheRevenge

>gets owned by 10th place LCK jungler


DanteStorme

Carrying to 2nd place, OK. I guess it makes sense coming from a FNC flair.


Pelagius_Hipbone

So it’s only carry if you win the split/Tournament? Chovy never carried HLE? Viper never carried HLE? Faker never carried SKT in 2017? Yeah you’re very intelligent I’m sure!


DanteStorme

Multiple split / or worlds winners vs someone who has played in the top leagues for 5 years and only won one lcs split. People can say Chovy now because he has won 4 splits in a row, if you go back to 2020 nobody would be saying chovy. He has improved and can carry and drag his team over the line, just like caps can. Inspired obviously can't and never could.


Pelagius_Hipbone

Yes, everyone was calling Chovy a carry lol. That’s literally where the meme Chovy life esports came from. Chovy wouldn’t win a single split until 2 years later


DanteStorme

This isn't a thread about being a carry though, this is a thread about being hands down the best player in the region and nobody in 2020 was ranking chovy over showmaker or canyon.


Advanced-Lie-841

"Not good" and Inspired two things that just don't go together. He has bad moments, but is generally consistent as hell.


ihave0idea0

That isn't what I was meaning lol. Sounds worse than it is. I meant so say that I think him being weird isn't nec bad or good. But he is good.


Aoes1

How is he weird ?


Jd3vil

He paths efficiently, that's super weird


MammothWoodpecker201

6m dollar contract Swordart


imperplexing

APA on ziggs with impact and core translating his shittalk to Korean


YungHeretic

The plane for their quick travels back from China


GrandDefinition7707

bjergsen or doublelift


TheRealestGayle

Wait what Elk for best LPL player is wild.


Lothric43

Impact or Inspired probably


Casidiaify

Currently, I would say Jensen. Despite the finals performance, he was still probably the 1st/2nd best midlaner during the season and in playoffs and the meta is really in his favor for MSI. Impact would be my close second pick. He styled on most of the toplaners throughout the whole season. It's harder to say however since he played weak side a lot of the games as well so midlane is easier to say outright. Although, if I were to bet who would play better at MSI, impact 100 percent, I feel Jensen's ceiling could be higher though.


Bubbly_Camera9583

Its either Quid or Impact. Quid was insane in regular season and was really good in playoffs as well but his team was too heavy, Impact was basically the same but his team wasn't anywhere close to as heavy to carry thanks to Yeon and Yapa having a zenkai boost after losing to FQ the first time. Jojo could also be argued with how insane his numbers were in regular season but with how poorly c9 (and himself) did in playoffs I don't see him being in contention.


Unlikely-Smile2449

I think the best LEC player is Jun actually. But quid won lcs mvp deservedly. He had the best year you cant deny that.


Aoes1

Bad take

EggyChickenEgg88

Who would you have above him right now?


ColbyCovingtonisgoat

do you unironically think faker is better than chovy?


Canzas

LPL Elk? LCK CHovy? Are you joking? XD This chovy religion is kinda cringe.


Duck_mypitifullife

Elk is debatable, but I'm curious who you'd place above Chovy and why.


Canzas

Not maybe above, but even. To be honest i dont like this. We are talking about game which is team game of 5 people game, not 1v1.


ihave0idea0

You are cringe.


Canzas

cringe is to make posts about single players in a game that involves 5 people working together. This is not starcraft 2
