#Worlds2026
I think the hate on Doran is undeservedly outsized, especially on Game 4.
There are multiple problems with the game, yes, but I don't think he was inting the way people making him out to be.
1. the duo ad draft: perhaps the biggest issue. I think T1 has had really good success playing around Peyz with Doran playing bruisers. for them to abandon that to go duo adc is really strange. also, I feel like he had to play Vayne as a weakside, which makes no sense to me.
2. that game, something was off about Oner's Wukong. he engaged really early and really deep almost every single combat. what I really like about Oner is that his initiations are usually quite easy for T1 to follow up. not this game. almost every combat, I saw T1 split into two halves, Oner and Faker dealing with BLG's backline, Keria, Doran and Peyz dealing with the frontline. that's really bad news for Peyz, since all three of them are quite squishy, and Doran being an adc with no hard cc, there is no real way to stop BLG from eating Peyz's ass.
those issues I mentioned, I feel like is outside of Doran's control. I didn't think he made that many mechanical mistakes either. yet I feel like people are putting the blame squarely on him and him alone. it's unfair. just how many hats do you want him to wear? threatening Bin, protecting Peyz, dealing damage all at the same time. that's impossible, especially when he did not get that much resources in the laning phase.
ultimately, T1 did not feel like T1 that game. that's why they lose. I don't think blindly kicking a top laner will fix that.
Dejen de bardear a doran, el problema son los coachs hace años
Para peor dejen de pedir a zeus de nuevo, tenes a Peyz o le empezás a meter recursos al nene o lo asfixias, si tenes a Zeus y le das los recursos a él no te sirve tener una maquina como peyz si lo vas a poner de weak
