Used to be a member of T1, perhaps no one thought that Teddy would be replaced by a young star from VCS
But at the present time, it was true when Teddy was pushed down to Drx Challengers to replace Lazyfeel. Worth mentioning, the former T1 star is the most experienced player of the current Drx squad and he is considered the pillar of the “Green Dragon” play in the season. Because, if compared to Rich (the same age), the CV comes from T1 of Teddy more obviously more impressive. However, after Teddy was pushed down to Challengers, he was his teammates and fans, indirectly or directly, pointing out his eternal issue.
Teddy was once again “knocked out” by the Challengers team.
Accordingly, perhaps everyone has seen Teddy's problem is in his gameplay. The former T1 star has been famous since the Jin Air Greenwings with a slow game, and Teddy's forte was also a very strong Late Hyper Carry, Ezreal. But obviously, the sentence pulling the game for too long with the slow gameplay has been “outdated”. Especially at the present time when the meta rotates continuously, preferring the more diverse ad ads, Teddy is as “on the edge”.
Lazyfeel shows good harmony with teammates
Not to mention, having to choose the right squad for Teddy's play also makes the Drx players pass. If the former T1 star can carry the team at the end of the match, everything is good. But most are the opposite. Even the top teams, if they use Ezreal, they also choose a team of fighting strongly at the beginning of the match and this general must be flexible, when a teammate supports and when “farm” alone.
Even LCK media also clearly pointed out: Drx LCK Cup phase (when Teddy is sick) playing sharper, more attractive. No one denies Teddy's experience or skills, but the slow gameplay, pulling his long -standing match is no longer suitable in the present – where the mutations and rhythm of the game are fast and slow depending on the throne.
The audience also realized that Teddy's play was “outdated”
It was Teddy at T1 that once suffered the same scene
If anyone feels the case of the familiar “teddy bear”, this is also the main reason that he loses his position in Gumayusi's hands. It can be said that, the strength of Teddy (skill, experience), Gumayusi is only inferior to the time of competition at LCK. But if it was about the ability to adapt all ways of playing, Teddy could not be as good as his juniors.
Because of this passive play, Teddy had lost his position before
And perhaps, if Teddy does not change to adapt, his career will fall into an alarm, especially when young talented players like him or more than him as the gunner, LCK has never been lacking.
