Know what I love about GBay’s videos? He explains everything in a manner in which a five year old who has never heard of League of Legends could still watch, without being condescending to the rest of us. It’s brilliant.
Yes, very great point lol
For me, I experienced it as a refresher and nostalgia. I can't help but to feel butterflies seeing moments played out I watched live so long ago. I'm rooting like I'm watching it for the first time live again on the edge of my seat over other people playing a video game I already know the conclusion to, and yet Gbay makes it feel just as entertaining and enjoyable as seeing it through fresh eyes.
i failed
tho i play league so its only natural
What a great series! I wish Riot would acknowledge your work more!
It's so surreal watching this KNOWING how the tale ends.
This is one of the reasons why i think winning worlds is overrated in a way. There have been great players that have never won worlds. Unfortunatly it doesnt only take emence skill, but also requires u to be on the right team at the right time. Some players get dragged along the finishline. Some deserve it more then others. Sometimes its just not ur day. Some who deserve it, not unlike deft, never make it. Yet the fans will only remember the winners. Since they are just in for the storyline and not properly analizing everyones skilllvl.
@@ChoB1den I agree mostly but fans DO remember players for their skill. Chovy and Doinb make a perfect opposite example imo. While Doinb won worlds, it seems like nobody talks too much about him or remembers him. On the other hand, Chovy has never won a worlds title but he is still very much praised for his mechanical skill.
@@Kepitano ive talked to enough people who say chovy is not as good as other mids, bcs he didnt win International events. He is consistently shting on lck mids wich is arguably more impressive though. These people are obviously completely wrong. Its seems like they take only outcomes into consideration, rather then actually analizing the player.
@@ChoB1den yeah. the majority of fans are lower rank than Emerald (and a huge chunk don't even play ranked) so it's not a surprise they don't have an accurate understanding or make an analytical argument for pro players. I'm not saying you can't have an opinion on them but surely the Diamond analysts at the desk would make a more valuable point of view.
@@ChoB1den well ultimately what happens in the LCK stays in the LCK. People don't care so much about what happens far away. The problem with Chovy isn't that he never won Worlds, it is that he consistently underperforms in international events. Most people who only watch these events naturally think he's overrated and you can't blame them.
This was kind of sad Deft seems like such a nice guy and losing to his friends both times has to be bittersweet.
Happy to see tho that he won worlds in 2022. I havent watched or played league in a long time so just learning about that now.
Gbay and his docs and videos, truly the gift that keeps on giving.
Congratulations on 500K, such a milestone to hit at the end of the year, and so well deserved 🎉
Here's to the million!
He's finally growing again! I remember for several years, Gbay was stuck at ~450k subscribers, give or take 10, 20 k.
And completely deserved, these documentaries are amazing quality.
I haven’t played league in likely 10 years after going ham most of my teens.
I watched most of these games shown in the video live, and these stories give me chills. Thanks GB
Absolutely the best documentaries and essays about League of Legends esports out there. Captures the history, the emotions, and the stories of this sport and all of the players and orgs involved in the most true and real way imaginable. I've been watching LoL esports since Worlds 2014 and I always well-up when watching your videos Gbay, because you really do tell the stories and histories in the sport in the way they deserve to be told.
P.S. Deft is my personal favourite player of all time, easily best Ezreal player ever in the world by a light year, and there is not a story in LoL quite like his.
Wow, there is so much heart in every video you make. Thank you for this treasure and I can't wait for the next part even if I already know the ending!
Setting apart the video because it's wonderful. i hate that people try to throw shit on faker. He's so talented that people always forget how hardworking person faker is.
TRUUUUUUE ! faker managed to have positive kda and best farm in the game despite being counterpicked by the entire enemy team.he would have won every competition if his teammates didn't hold him back
OHHH BOYYYYY! Five parts of this? I'm excited. I am going to be glued to these videos. Gbay you never fail to make an excellent documentary. I really hope you soar and make a career out of it that goes beyond CZcams. You're so talented bro.
Thank you for your contribution to the thing we love. Your work is important.
Please, no stopping.
This is such a great series you have going man. I can't wait for more.
Can't wait for the next 3. This is awesome :)
Every time one of these videos comes out, I can't help but rewatch from the first part and put them together as if they were a movie. They are so good!
These videos are so good! I have a friend who I watch these with who's league knowledge is literally "lol teemo" and even he is enjoying them. I don't want to wait for the rest of this series and I CANNOT wait to see how you talk about Deft's worlds win. Insane work GBay.
Thanks for all the amazing videos over the years man. Amazing work. ❤
waited so long for this... and then 34 minutes felt as 5. I need part three xD Keep up the great work and thanks!
You are truly onto something with these videos. It’s truly captivating! Please continue into other players/ regions after this one. It’s so cool to actually experience the player and not only the game.
Found this channel through his documentary on my favorite League player of all time MaRin, haven't been able to stop watching since. Can't wait for the rest of this series!!
Gbay, You focus a lot on the players and their emotions and I think that's a really good idea and is a good hook. You also describe the storylines of the tournaments well- keep it up
I am so glad you still upload content. I am beging to feel the effect of playing to much league for so many years but your videos always do well to invoke nostalgia and reignite my love for the game! Keep doing what you are doing man I genuinely enjoy you work and I have been subed for year! I hope you are doing well and are still able to sneak in games every now and then! :)
FINALY 2ND PART!!!! I was checking your channel every day since the first one I couldn't wait
THIS IS THE BEST CZcams DOC I HAVE EVER WATCHED. Keep up the truly stellar videos. Much love.
Amazing video, cant wait to watch the next one
Gbay, thank you so much for this documentary !! This is actually incredible
excited for the following parts. keep it up Gbay
Love this series! Although I know the outcome of the games it’s still so exciting to watch. 10/10 storytelling

As someone who has never played league but enjoyed the recent storylines, these videos are incredible for someone who hasn’t played the game, thank you
So good Gbay, loving the series. Thanks again! :)
I did not realize this was part 2/5 till now, title as such next time please 🙏
Thanks Gbay for your work and your content
Ngl I have been spam refreshing the past week just for this video I want this series out now I’m ngl. You’re content is too good man keep it up
Finally! I’ve been waiting impatiently for this one to drop!
These videos are so good and it's showing off a piece of history that would likely just be lost.
This hits my corner interest of LOL Lore so fking hard thank you for years of brilliant content, a good start into the new one! Thank you for being eith Hazmat, League Recap and a few more that covers the niches of in dept League History!
This is very nostalgic. I remember watching that MSI game and being shocked that they didn't ban Faker's unstoppable LB, and also happy I would get to see it in action, and then even more shocked that it wasn't unstoppable after all. Great documentary series!
Loved it, you're an amazing story steller. Keep the hustle.
Damn good storytelling.
You got me excited, happy and sad all in one video
Appreciate the documentary series bud always learn something new. Commenting to help the algorithm.
Amazing video and story telling! true masterpiece!
Well done Gbay! Another banger
Oh man so good! I want more gbay!
Watching Fakers Decade Legacy and Gbay docu for Faker vs Deft, two most renowned players with so much history, back to back on the same day. Really such a great way to end the year with my utmost fave players in league the goat & the alpaca.
Holy I just realized this is a 5 part documentary, now I'm so hyped
What a video to end the year, thank you Sir Gbay
Good stuff gbayyy

Need part 3
A gbay video to end off the year I could 💦right now thank you sir
Love your work :)
Thanks so much man :)
I cant wait for the rest
Great video ! Can’t wait to see the next one.
Would also nice to have a video about RNG Uzi, for me also an uncrowned king of the lol players.
Love this so much. Next chapter is Defts time on KT, which is when I became a KT fan.
Deft is back on KT for 2024, which makes it an amazing story too
Now that league is hitting a new age with new players you can make so many great videos to tell our stories. MSI 2015 was so cool with that game 5
i love this series 10/10
Gbay is cooking god damn it
I love these documentaries, you format it so well. One criticism I have for future documentaries, which isn't even anything big, is that as a narrator you end some of your sentences at a higher pitch. It makes it sound like you're asking a question whereas if you instead lower your pitch at the end of the sentence (you do this half the time) it makes you sound more authoritative and knowledgeable about the topic. I think it's some sort of public speaking psychology trick. Again, not a huge thing, just a small change that could help I think. Keep up the great content!
As a very new league fan who has no idea about the history of league's esports other than Worlds winners for each year, watching this is actually pretty nerve wracking 😅
WOOHOO PART 2!
Literally gave me chill. Great work. Just a small note, It would be more fair to mention after MSI 2015, EDG lost Koro1 due to injury, and they had to replace him with AmazingJ from their “sister team” at the time, IMAY if I remember correctly.
Yaay, the show continues.
Love thissss!!!!!
Gbay is just class
oowee looking forward to these more than christmas and i have never played league
Gbay brining top content in youtube
Quality Content ❤️❤️❤️
Oh shit finally :D looked forward to this
Dude. I sat down at my computer and said "gbay better have uploaded the second part to the faker vs deft doc" Thank you, Gbay
waiting for the next ep
SFIV Ultra Music was something I was not expecting. I don't play league of legends, but I love this story a lot!
I was just listening to the first part and was wondering why it felt like an abrupt end to the video. Didn’t know it’s a five-parter. I’m definitely rewatching the whole thing once it’s all done
You got anymore of that Deft documentary *scratches neck*
Hearing MonteCristo and Doa cast together, makes me remember the time I fell in love the Korean pro-scene. Getting up way earlier than usual on weekends to watch OGN/LCK and experiencing the Eastern league scene perform, was simply amazing.
Best casters of all time
It's crazy to see a league history video with so little old summoners rift footage.
Gbay is the goat of league docs
The fact that we are getting 5 parts is crazyyyyy
This is a great video. For context (if I remember correctly) the world championship was a wild one due to the Juggernaut patch right before worlds. This patch made huge changes to Garen Darius and Mordekaiser. Along with GP and Fiora reworks a patch or two prior the meta completely shifted to a top lane meta. Teams qualified for worlds on a bot lane centric patch and then we’re expected to play around these monstrously broken top laners. That could have been an issue for Deft and EDG at that worlds.
I don’t remember these patch but EDG lost Koro1 and had to replace him with AmazingJ. So their performance was definitely down from MSI
i was wondering when the next part was coming out. thank you for your hard work!! lowkey wish t1 hired you for that faker 10th anniversary documentary they dropped today because i feel like you would have done a better job lol
Yea it was really disappointing. Their guma documentary was a much better doc ngl
@@jerrytang5888it feels more like they filmed and released it because fans were complaining about there being none, rather than them actually planning it in advance, which is really disappointing. the fact there was none of his actual former or even current teammates in the docu was bafflingly funny, yet sad to me. a lot of t1 fans act like they're the management sometimes, way too much, but in this case, they're right. not planning out a documentary for the 10 year anniversary of the player who is basically your whole organization and the goat of his game, is just really bad. even if faker doesn't care about it, which i'm sure he doesn't, it would just be the right thing to do. if i was in t1's video team, i'd be planning that thing since january 1st 2023 and release it on his anniversary date exactly. it would have been my priority. that would be the only sensible thing to do. but i guess t1 don't care enough for that. very odd organization when it comes to video content and fan treatment. i just like that they treat their former and current players well financially and job stability wise. that's all they've got going for them. the video content? not it. the guma documentary was two times longer and so much better made - it's the documentary guma deserves, i loved it so much and i'm so happy he got it, but it begs the question of why this one was so lacking.
A new gbay video simply demands you interact, if you don't you've missed out on so much drama that happened when you where younger fr
Having his friends beat him, only to see his rival also always come out on top. Deft must have been hiding so much frustration, no wonder he cried at Worlds 2022.
