To be fair to P1, they looked pretty dominant for two games before suddenly collapsing two games in a row.

Also, it was cool for Madlife to pass all of his Thresh powers as he got benched.

Rabid what LPL teams should i watch games from, I've barely been following it at all this season.

RNG, EDG, Newbee, IG

also P1 is a way better team than all of the teams in this relegation tournament but their morale has been so bad there's like no way they can win this game five right

P1 has been such a puzzling team to watch in the second half of the split. I think they could've ended up higher if they hadn't gotten straight up unlucky and had the jungle meta swing so decisively in the other direction away from MikeYeung's strengths. It's still genuinely baffling to see a team with so much veteran talent and a highly talented rookie getting ground to paste post-Rift Rivals and now hanging on to LCS status by a thread.

apparently everyone wants to leave the team? i dont know the details of why but it seems like even if they don't get relegated there's a decent chance the team blows up.

I recall Ryu during the tail end of his H2K days talking about how he misses Korea, and I imagine Arrow's in a similar spot. MikeYeung has proven that he's got the chops to be an absolutely top-tier jungler (assuming he gets the support he needs for when meta shifts happen), and he almost assuredly has his pick of the litter once his contract's up. Not sure about Xpecial and Zig, though; they might want to stay but realize they're probably just gonna get dumpstered if they lose any of Arrow/Ryu/MikeYeung, or the P1 management might be atrocious and they genuinely don't think they can go anywhere with that org.

All of this assumes P1 is getting a) through promotion and b) a franchise. If they get a franchise there's going to be some players who just decide to stay put and collect a paycheck.

Game 1 Afreeca/SKT is some next level cheese as Twitch starts Relic Shield so he could get an Ardent on Janna faster
