Gumayusi was the mastermind behind a crucial moment in HLE’s victory.
It can be said that the match, which could have been a new “Classic” in the League of Legends scene, turned out to be a meeting between two completely opposite extremes, as HLE faced Gen.G at this moment. One side seemed to have regained the winning feeling of a “super team,” while the other was drowning in a crisis from expertise to morale. The match concluded with a surprising score of 2-0 in favor of HLE. But the bigger surprise was that Gumayusi made a crucial call that led to the overall victory of the “Orange House.”
According to the post-match interview, Gumayusi revealed: “Initially, the whole team planned to contest. But the opponent took the position first and had the Teleport advantage. At that moment, I checked and saw that the opponent’s Ashe had 2 major items while our team wasn’t ready to fight yet due to not reaching the power threshold. Therefore, I called the team to back off, accepting to lose an additional Dragon buff but preserving the overall game state.”
This can be considered a very important moment. At that time, HLE had indeed moved in to control the bush area around the Dragon pit. But clearly, they had not truly reached their best power state. If a fight had ensued afterward, Gumayusi’s Yunara would have struggled to match the damage against Ruler. Not to mention, Gen.G also had the Rift Herald to create chaos in the fight, with Zeka and Kanavi – the two key players not having Flash yet.
Gumayusi is increasingly proving his influence and advancing further
Gumayusi’s development continues to grow day by day, despite the fact that he now rightfully deserves to be called the best AD carry in League of Legends history. With precise decisions based on experience, like just recently, Gumayusi can assist his teammates even more, alongside his usual role as a Super Marksman he has been demonstrating recently.
