Finished reviewing KC vs MKOI on stream, here are some thoughts:
KCs biggest strenghts were always their teamfighting, lanephase and overall mechanical ability, the individual talent has been sublime but I have been critical of some of their points as there seemed to be little improvement on those topics as they to the eye looked lacking in the macro side against MKOI/KC but something seem to have clicked in preparation for the finals weekend:
1. Both Canna and Kyeahoo have become 100x more effective at using their free time. They do not add exposure to their sidelines by pursuing deeper individual leads and press hard in river, chunking facecheckers and checking for flank angles - This denies vision for the enemy team and leverages fog of war hard, the enemy becomes suffocated and makes it a lot easier for Caliste and Busio to play on the mid wave and to put better wards. (Just check how many times Canna/Kyeahoo is harassing with Orianna/Cass/Rumble or the flanks they find with Kennen/Cassio)
2. League is connected so everything becomes easier when certain seemingly smaller things click, but with the above base timers and vision play of Yike/Busio was very strong vs MKOI
3. Ontop of Kyeahoo leveraging side timers and pressuring river, his synergy with Yike looked great, Kyeahoo had a very clear role in the series and played his best games to date.
The head to head match up has looked very difficult the last weeks against G2 due to these things missing and I am now very excited for finals. Stylistically G2 would before just dominate the Mid Jgl Support and connecting solo laners to the map through jgl support play which allows them to decide the fights that happen in the game and gives them chances to snowball or comeback in any gamestates.
With all of that being said, I am now very excited for the finals again, KCs improvements will allow them more chances to fight on their terms.
I favor G2 but I think this can be insanely close, G2 have not looked their best so far in this playoffs, but at the same time G2 have so much credibility with their coaching staff and ability to peak at right times that I would not be surprised if suddenly for the finals they have insanely strong prep and slam a 3-0.

BACK TO BAAAACK
Toujours impressionné de l'impact de kyeahoo btw
Qu'est ce que jouer à league of legends avec ce gars doit être facile
Je me demande premier degré si Kc va au world ( oui ) si des équipes lck vont pas envoyer des offres.

With this final, our Winter Split journey has come to an end.
Although we fell short, I truly enjoyed being able to go through this Finals season together with my teammates. Regardless of the result, this was one of the most memorable and fun series of my professional career.
Its a bummer we lost today, but I had a blast and Im gonna remember this day for the rest of my life. I really want to play in more big matches like this in the future. Huge thanks to all the fans who came out to support us. I’m gonna make sure we’re well-prepared for next season
@madgedymey Difficile de connaître le vrai niveau de Kyeahoo en dehors de la Corée, espérons pour KC qu'il s'intégrera au mieux
J'aurais pas trouvé incohérent de tenter Czekolad, Serin & OMON.
