League of Legends: LCK Week 5 player power rankings
By Josh Tyler
AD Carry
1. Park “Viper” Do-hyeon (Griffin)
Viper wasn’t exactly the main reason for Griffin’s awful Week 5, but he had the biggest drop of all players in the LCK power rankings. Only his massive lead over Teddy in the previous rankings kept him in the top spot, but now he’s not far-and-away the number one ADC.
In one week, his raw DPM dropped from 562 to 535, expected when his team is performing poorly but is indicative that this week he was not outputting the damage his team needed to win. In that third game of their series against Afreeca, his lane opponent Aiming did almost 29k damage to champions in the deciding game. Viper, on the other hand, did only 10k damage, over 4k behind his mid laner’s output.
2. Park “Teddy” Jin-seong (SK Telecom T1)
3. Park “Ruler” Jae-hyuk (Gen.G)
4. Kim “Aiming” Ha-ram (Afreeca Freecs)
5. Kim “Deft” Hyuk-kyu (Kingzone DragonX)
The only ADC whose position changed from Week 4’s rankings, Deft posted some incredibly strong performances in the team’s 2-1 series win over Damwon Gaming. He went 4/1/4 on Ezreal in Game 2, dragging his struggling mid and support to victory. Although he only went 1/1/4 in Game 3, he did the most damage in the game on Jinx doing only 5k damage less than the rest of his team combined. Following that performance, he now has the highest adjusted DPM (raw DPM times his standardized damage share) of all LCK ADCs.
