Who is gonna be our Toplaner 2027?

Since Kiin won't have a chance to win the Asian Games, that means we will get a new top laner in 2027.

Do you see any potential players whose contracts are ending and who would fit into our roster?

Why would they pick Zeus over Kiin

I'm so tilted and pissed off over this. I don't want to send any hate to anyone but it's so frustrating.

Since last year and arguably 2024 Kiin has been outperforming Zeus for 95% of the year. I struggle to see what the argument in favor of Zeus was or what the criteria is. Regardless of Kiin's loss in First Stand and his slow start this split he overall just seems like the far better choice for the Asia games.

Hopefully he can win worlds this year and go out in a big explosion at least.

It's GenG against the whole damn world.

Okay i'm sorry in advance but I NEEEEED to crash out somewhere.

To start i'm happy for Canyon, but being completely honest Oner deserved it more and would fit better into the roster. And now everybody is coming for canyon.

Second,

WHERE THE HELL IS KIIN!!!!!

Alright Zeus is also really good (neck and neck imo). But if we were picking based on team synergy and not just individual strength then where is oner.

WHERE THE HELL IS MY BOY KIIN!!!!!!!!!!!

literally what more did you ever want him to do. Sometimes i just wish he could ever have a little more luck. I'm genuinely holding back tears rn. I can't believe we cant have kiin after this year (he has to report by 28 so he cant play from next year mostly - the age system is diff so 2 more years max). He has put so much hardwork into his sport - no matter who he is teammates were he has been a solid player since the start of his career. And then when finally there is chance for him to atleast play on for longer, you say - MSI, EWC and FS is not taken.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN KESPA CUP OVER MSI

how is the criteria only KeSpa Cup and Worlds. Fine we were looking at worlds right, so where is oner.

He is easily the best weakside top which is what Doran mostly is. Which is who 3/6 members chosen have played with last year. so

WHY COULD'NT YOU HAVE TAKEN KIIN.

Next Chovy has Chronic hip injury.

CHRONIC HIP INJURY and WE ONLY HEAR ABOUT IT NOW???!

MYGOAT i really hope you get better for yourself. Screw all these plays and performances they only ever appreciate who they want to anyway. I hope your sincerely happy and healthy. If winning these makes you happy, I hope you get there.

Okay last question -

WHERE THE HELL IS MY BOY KIIN!!!!!!!!!!!

Say Kiin already had exemption and wasnt this good of a player. Still what is this roster cuz there is no Oner.

Hirai just picked who ever he wanted based on absolutely nothing.

I'm Done. I need a break from this community. On an average day, an average viewer is rooting against my team for simply trying their best. And when it comes to getting rewarded for their hard-work by the authorities, the head coach decides to do just whatever.

Not as GenG fan but just as a human, this is absolutely heart breaking for kiin. Irrespective of the results this year - I hope we can make it memorable for him by atleast by being more vocal about our love and appreciation for him.

K I cant stop crying while writing this. Take care y'all, hope our boys can be happier too 😭.

Edit: As someone in the comments pointed out - Kiin is scheduled to stream today from 11:00 pm KST so if you have some time please take a second to show some love -

Edit2: Todays stream is not so surprisingly cancelled. Hope he is good.

Chovy has been excluded from the final roster due to a hip injury.

Chovy has reportedly been dealing with chronic hip joint pain since last year. According to sources, the symptoms recently worsened, leading him to focus on treatment and recovery.

What happened to Canyon?

I started following and playing League in early 2021, when Canyon was on Damwon. Arguably, that's peak Canyon, the player who made me fall for the jungle role. He was so smart around vision, had flashy plays, used to be a driving force for Damwon's success. He is the reason I started supporting GenG after all, since I was so hyped when he joined. The simple question is: what happened to him? From Nidalee, Kayn, Karthus, Lee Sin (imo his 2nd best champ, just below Nida), he transitioned into a tank jungler due to the meta a while ago, and now he seems to have lost his edge. No more aggression, no more game winning plays. Yes, he is reliable on Skarners or Jarvans, but i miss old Canyon. At least that's how i see it, maybe i am wrong, but besides a slump or dip in form every now and then, i feel that he has lost his spark and his game-defining playstyle that put him in the GOAT jungler conversation.

What do you guys think? Is it because of the meta and changes to the game in the past few years? Is it because he has become a facilitator to Chovy and Ruler? Is it because junglers have adapted eventually to his playstyle?

Gen.G vs. T1 / LCK 2026 Round 1-2 - Week 7 / Post Game3 Discussion

https://preview.redd.it/3d3rsh2tbh1h1.png?width=1386&format=png&auto=webp&s=e081effba6ed7ee393e123ad2be0464eb05379a3

T1 shenanigans wins the game. What an absolute disaster from GenG in game 3, this doesn't change much anyways. Hopefully team can learn from this game 3. GG T1 !
Good mental from the boys, to at least try to salvage the game after T1 was up 10k gold, Canyon kinda threw before elder sadly.

On a side note, Peyz has been such an upgrade for T1.

2026 LCK Rounds 1-2 / Week 7 / GEN vs. BFX / Game 2

GEN 2:0 BFX

Such a strong showing from every player. If we get this chemistry and pace against T1 on Saturday, then KT might be in danger of not getting back into 2nd place.

Also, redemption for Kiin on the Vayne!

POM goes to Chovy with a K/D/A of 14/1/15, he's sitting at 700 points in Rounds 1-2!

2026 LCK Rounds 1-2 / Week 7 / GEN vs. BFX / Game 1

GEN 1:0 BFX

BFX started off well, but then completely threw the game during that Herald fight, after which GEN's team comp just took over the game and nothing could be done to salvage it.

Also, Chovy penta!

With KT's 0-2 loss to BFX yesterday, GEN now sits at #2 in the standings!

Gen.G now has a 1 game lead over KT. 19-8 vs. 18-8. I hope they can keep this up and keep winning 2-0 against everyone to make some separation from KT.

Edit: Typo with losses.
