RevengeSomewhere in Germany, H2k Gamings Yoo Ryu Sang-ook is smiling from the proverbial grave. Three years ago in South Koreas domestic premier league, Champions, Ryus legacy was indelibly written when his KT Rolster team dropped three games in a row to Lee Faker Sang-hyeoks upstart SK Telecom T1 in a reverse sweep defeat. The iconic image of Ryu staring blankly into the OGN production cameras after losing a one-on-one Zed duel against Faker has been his long-lasting imprint on League of Legends.Last week in the semifinals of Champions, the league for South Korea, it was Fakers turn to feel the heartache of losing after going up two games in a series. KT Rolster was down against rival SK Telecom T1 in the first half of the series before turning it around in game three to reel off a trio of victories.For Go Score Dong-bin, the only remaining starter from the team that was reverse swept three years ago, it was revenge not only for himself, but for Ryu as well. While Ryu has gone on to make the World Championships with H2k Gaming in the European League Championship Series, the nightmare of KTs collapse against Faker and SKT T1 has always followed him closely. Even at last years Worlds, Faker met Ryu in the group stages, and it was the same story told once more: Ryu was eliminated in the first round, and Faker went on to win another title with T1.Back in 2013, Score was an AD carry and not a jungler like he is today. He was known as the Immortal Score, a tagline given to him due to his marvelous positioning and ability to survive through the harshest of multi-man attacks. Like Ryu, before moving to jungle position at the start of the 2015 season, it appeared that Scores career would be defined by that devastating loss to SKT T1. It wasnt just that KT lost the domestic title that night, but they were forced to play SKT T1 once more in the Korean Regionals for the final spot at the 2013 World Championships, which KT duly lost.Scores transition to the jungle was seen as a last ditch effort from Rolster to salvage the career of a veteran seemingly on his last, fully mortal legs. Star jungler Lee KaKAO Byung-kwon had left for the greener (read: financially superior) pastures of China, and Score was tried out in the role during the preseason to see if he could make the jump. While there were some rocky starts, Score quickly began to pick up the new role, and he was eventually given full-time starting duties.Since then, Score has progressed and become the best example of an old dog learning new tricks. As an AD carry, Score was good, but he always lacked the spark and individual flair of the likes of rivals Chae Piglet Gwang-jin of SKT at the time, and Kim Deft Hyuk-kyu and Gu Imp Seung-bin, formerly of Samsung origin. In the jungle role, Score has found his calling as the teams general with the ability to control the entire map from his overarching fingertips. And last weeks victory was the confirmation that his choice to become jungler was the correct decision back in the preseason of 2015.As an AD carry, sure, Score was immortal.But as a jungler, he will go down as a legend.RedemptionRevenge was one side of the story of the KT reverse sweep of SKT, but redemption was the other. When you look up and down the KT lineup, its filled to the brim with players who are in need of redemption in one way or another.Ha Hachani Seung-chan, to put it bluntly, was a joke before this year. He won a domestic title with KT Arrows in the summer of 2014, but he was considered the friend that was simply dragged along by his more talented comrades. He would constantly get caught out, walk into unwarded bushes to his sudden doom, and follow up impressive performances with equally terrible ones. After apparently retiring from pro gaming, he became head coach of the future Afreeca Freecs, and there was even discussion of him possibly becoming one of the NRG Esports coaches to begin the 2016 year.Hachani returned, however, to KT when newly-signed supposedly-starting support Lee IgNar Dong-geun failed to mesh with the team. The once-retired support picked up his keyboard and mouse once more to play alongside his friends on KT Rolster, and while the first few months were a far cry from the days with Lee Piccaboo Jong-beom, he started to gradually improve. When SKT T1s Nexus was smashed in the ultimate game of last weeks best-of-five series, it was not Score or even Kim Ssumday Chan-ho who was awarded the MVP of the match, but the once-disparaged Hachani, his Taric finishing a perfect 1/0/20.As for AD carry No Arrow Dong-hyeon, hes been a consistent starter in the league, but never a game-changer. Youd find him atop the KDA rankings and other stats, but he was generally the janitor of the KT Rolster starting five, wiping up the kills that the top, jungle and mid lane left for him on the floor.Arrows play the last two months might be the biggest reason why KT Rolster are playing like a Summoners Cup-contending team. His Jhin play the last two postseason matches has been literally flawless, featuring a 36/0/45 scoreline to go along with a pair of match victories. Arrow, maybe for the first time since the days of the aptly named KT Arrows, is a game-changer once again, and thats a scary proposition for any team in the world to face.Song Fly Yong-jun, the Unorthodox Prince of KT, like Arrow, has been seen as primarily a cog in the machine instead of a carry for a majority of his time on the team. He left the Jin Air organization at the end of the 2014 year to join Invictus Gaming instead of being the Korean teams starter; his decision eventually left him in the secondary Chinese league struggling to make a name for himself. He returned to South Korea with KT at the start of 2016, and his weird, sometimes even awkward, champion pool has given Rolster the ability to play a variety of different compositions; however, his overall individual play has been lacking. Flys versatility was on full display versus SKT (playing four different champions in five games). So was his solo play for the most part, being able to withstand the pressure of Faker, unlike last seasons semifinals where he was embarrassed in a 0-3 shellacking.RolsterWhen it comes to revenge, redemption, and even the name Rolster itself, KTs top laner Ssumday represents all three. The ace of the team and former MVP of the league, the top lane star was merely a hair away from tying for co-MVP honors alongside ROX Tigers Song Smeb Kyung-ho.Ssumday will be looking for revenge against Smeb, the man who almost single-handedly knocked him and his team from the World Championships last year in the quarterfinals.Hell also be looking for redemption, wanting to finally win a domestic champion as the crown jewel of the team. While he won the Champions crown in the summer of 2014 alongside Hachani and Arrow, it was the duo of KaKAO and Song RooKie Eui-jin that got a majority of the praise.And for Rolster, the only organization that Ssumday has only ever known, he wants to repay the confidence theyve had in him as a top laner since he was a rookie player who only knew how to play Renekton. From his early days as a bench player to the utility days on the Arrows, KT Rolster has overseen Ssumdays progress from peasant to possible king.On August 20, a new South Korean champion will be crowned for the first time in two years. KT, who has made it now to all four summer Champions finals, believe that the past has finally been overwritten, and its time for a new chapter in the clubs history.
