LOL: Korean falls a destructive verdict over the best player in Europe

In League of Legends, South Korea dominates the Lol Worlds 2021: All teams from Europe and the US are already eliminated. The Korean Gwak BDD Bo-Seong (22) is now a hard verdict over the best player in Europe, the Croat Luka Perkz Perković (23): He says Western players were not really interested in the lanning phase and Also not good in it.

That s the situation:

At the Lol Worlds 2021, 3 teams from the US and 3 teams from Europe advised. 4 disturbed in the group stage, the other two bounded it in the quarter-finals opportune-to-chance against South Korean teams. The Kroat Perkz is considered the best player in Europe, but changed before the season but in the US: Cloud9 was the last hope of a team in the west, even something to tear the Worlds. But Cloud9 disappeared in the quarter-finals on Gen G., a South Korean team, which is considered rather berth and boring. The stars of T1 (Faker) or DWG KIA (Showmaker) are missing. The Midlan of the South Korean, BDD, is now a hard Urtel about Perkz.

Western players are not really interested in the lanning phase

That says Bdd to Perkz : In conversation with the Korean pages Inven, BDD is asked what he can say to the match-up against Perkz:

One thing I ve learned at the LOL Worlds 2021 is: Western Midlan are not really interested in Laning and they are not very good in it. So things ran as well as I expected them.

How did things ran? In the match-up against Perkz, BDD played the Champions AAtrox (2-2-4), Syndra (1-1-15) and Zoe (1-3-13). It is noticeable that he has collected assists as a midlan, especially assists for his team. The kills then achieved, depending on the match, the Jungler, Top Laner or Botlaner.

Perkz played in the series Yasuo (5-4-2), Sylas (4-6-0), and Syndra (0-2-5). He could not take a real influence on the match.

See the other one? Yes, it seems to be a common opinion among the Koreans that Western players are simply not good in the lanning phase.

So the top laner of DWG Kia, Khan said that Western players are not really strong in the Lane, so his midlan showmaker could even use the Predator Rune, which makes the lanning phase heavier, but the group game facilitates.

Khan says showmaker was sure he would win his lane in the fight against Mad Lions in the quarterfinals anyway.

On Reddit one believes, the judgment of BDD therefore come because Western teams in the lanning phase already emphasize the team play and roames and give up the dominance in the Lane.

What is the lanning phase? The lanning phase are the first about 15 minutes of a LOL game in which the players remain relatively firm at their positions and try to turn off as many minions as possible and so experience Collect points and gold.

In this phase, it comes mainly on discipline and mechanical skills - in later phases of the match, tactics, strategy and group fighting are more important.

Korea clearly dominates the LOL Worlds 2021

What has changed? Previously, the West team like G2 were known to play in the lanning phase relatively chaotic and aggressively, but make opponents from the concept. The group championship phase then drew the strong and creative team play of the team. Disadvantages from the lanning phase could be compensated by outstanding actions and good nerves.

On the other hand, teams from China were considered strong and snappy in the lanning phase: they were looking for small benefits to further expand the snowballs, ie. The Chinese Lol often looked like a wild fight in the lanning phase.

The teams from South Korea were in their weak phase as to passive and to Bieder. Your methodical game does not really frighten in earlier metas, but had difficulties against the on-mouth tactics from China or the chaotic-creative player of the Western Top Team G2.

At the current Lol Worlds 2021, the Koreans are superior with their style of play. Currently there are 3 of the remaining 4 teams from South Korea.

What could be the reasons? On Reddit there is Grade Katzenjammer. The European fans call several reasons why the west grade stands so weak:

One says the good players from Europe are now scattered on 2 continents. Another says who lose his lane in China or Korea, is exchanged for a younger professional - this pressure is missing in the west. A third mentioned the Soloq -Gap: Korean and Chinese could practice the lanning phase against strong opponents in their domestic Soloq - in the West one could not. The level is too weak. Western players would have to be in a boot camp to South Korea to find strong training partners.
