DOPA: The Story of the Solo Queue Legend 

“His main account received a 1000 year ban….and he is banned to this day” wow thanks for that clarification I thought he might be close

I love how riot have him a 1000 year ban and not just a 100 year ban, so dramatic and all it does is make it sound cooler for dopa lol

I just realised the reason i couldn't climb is bc my monitor was 47.4 cm away from the edge of my desk. Shoutout to dopa for fixing my winrate

I love how all the flashy and impressive Yasuo/Yone/Akali/Zed/Irelia highlights in the world and the greatest solo queue player of all time is a twisted fate main.

After watching, many of these fundamentals are echoed today by educational content creators like Coach Curtis, Alois, and Dopa’s #1 fan, MidBeast. Dopa truly is the godfather of solo q!

His comment about Faker forcing the enemy jungler so that he never dies to a gank is actually interesting...Faker has been taking a lot of attention in any of his games that he gets focused so much the enemy lose track of other players and when they focus someone else, he just pops off...the unkillable demon king may actually be the king of misdirection magic.

It's almost like league is like chess. If you're having fun while playing chess, you're not playing optimally. Similarly, even if you make a blunder or mistake in chess but your opponent doesn't see it and punish it, that doesn't make your blunder a good thing, it was still bad. You just got lucky.

DOPA story sounds like the beginning of a manhwa protagonist 😆

First Agurin's video, now one about Dopa. This channel is definitely going in the right direction 👍great work!

I started watching your channel from your third video, i always liked the way you explain (simple and anyone can understand it) but I always felt that your videos explaining "raw" macro were better than watching replays. Now you are doing very well with this style of videos, it makes me very happy, GGs bro.

These documentaries are bussin! 20 min, wasn't even bored one bit

Actually Agurin, the guy who consistently hits rank 1 on EUW and this year he hit rank 1 in Korea in like 2 weeks said the exact same thing about his strategy for solo q, i mean to always do a "correct" play and even if it doesn't work out once or even many times it doesn't mean it's incorrect play, because over hundreds of games it's gonna pay off, to minimalize the risk and go only for plays with high propability to succeed etc. It's funny how they both don't concider themselves exeptional players in terms of mechanics and it's true that although they're both really good there are many more mechanically gifted players who can't climb so fast and so consistently as those two, it's like they just see the game in the broader way, they see the climb as a whole, they understand what to do to have win rate ;p They also have a strong mental. I feel like we all can adopt some of this way of thinking, maybe not everyone can be rank 1, but i think everyone can increase their rank by adopting some of this attitude.

brother man, the white screen transitions were like occasional flashbangs for my eyes, verynoicevid

man your videos are awesome! you deserve much more attention!

You should make a video about Midbeast. Since he is very humble he don't talk much about it but he beat Dopa and Faker. A true legend.

This was super interesting. Good job!

This video was so good pls make more long videos like this

Watched one of your videos a couple weeks ago and you had like 2k subs. Hope you keep growing as fast as you have since these videos are great.

loved it, thanks for the vid

Nice video! Not only you brought the pov of a player from another role, but it was the soloq king one. It was amazing to notice that the general idea to succeed in soloQ remained the same: make plays that are statistically advantageous for your team and ignore people being crazy. In other words: play league of legends rather then soloq.

Great video man. Good coverage and research

14:12 holy fuck, those winrates !!!

i remember hearing his blurb about how he isn't good but how he sees "concepts" years ago. now having changed from mid to jg main i can see that dopa has the heart of a jungle main but somehow developed that playing only laning. in jg i follow virkayu's principle of active participation and efficient resource gathering which is the equivalent of dopa playing well in lane and making good decisions

If Faker is Gojo, then Dopa is Sukuna

Keep up the good work! Great edit, information well documented, text & idea presentation. GG WP

Love the content!!!

Thanks for making clean videos.

great video!

the small youtuber speech went hærd sick vid

I had no clue the Chinese super server was so competitive, that absolutely blows my mind.

great video! thanks for your hard work and passion!

From how he described league hes an actual genius it wouldnt matter what he dedicated his time to he would've become extremely good at it

thanks for video, informative stuff

Very interesting thank you for this video mister

good video, I like how you break down some of his quotes about fundamentals.

I hope to see him shine in pre-season 1014

nice content dude 🤘

Great video. Love this and the Jungling summary!!!

Another banger video

thx for the video. was good one

Another video, love this channel, it really helps me to clear my mind about what's important about jungling :) Just went 19/2/7 on Ekko in the JG

you deserve more subs bro

He couldnt hit rank 1 and decided to quit instead of continuing. I respect that a lot personally, there is a lot of power in knowing when its time to step away and move on

Liked and subscribed!

was this written by ai? istg you repeated some data multiple times

I'm looking forward to a collab between you and Coach Curtis.

I enjoyed this, make more stuff like it

Nice video bro

Great change up from the standard game play videos. It would be nice to see you select a player from a different server each time.

i love these videos keep it up!

epic dude epic summary. thanks man! ...what aguy that dopa

I love this video, I want to be like dopa!❤

very good content, im from brazil, like a lot this tipe of video

That HighNoon skin is very underrated.

Man, his return in 1000 years is going to be absolutely legendary.

Good video! Was amazed when i saw you only got 9.9k subscribers. Add 1 to that!

I can’t wait, I am ready, year 3015 dopa vs faker

Dopa coming back to league in year 3020 ez rank one

really good video

4 years ago I remember he said himself in the stream that his mechanics are garbage. He just simply understands how the game works. That is why he was the top1. Also he said that there is no difference between a Grandmaster player and a Diamond 1 player. Only the top Challenger players make difference.

Looking forward to another banger :)

Very nice content

If you are making a solo queue god video or jungle god video, will we expect to see a video of Bo in the future?

I swear i tought this was a video about magic felix !

Dopa stream when the 1000 year ban finishes is gonna be LEGENDARY !!!!

Good video but one thing I disagree with is that its more impressive to hit rank 1 on the super server because even bronze players are diamond. That stuff doesnt matter to the high challenger level players anyways. The top of the ladder players like beifeng/dopa/chovy/showmaker are competing against each other, they dont care about which bronze players are actually diamond because they never get into game with them anyways. For that reason the Korean server is not easier to get rank 1 than the superserver. The superserver is better top down because the silver players on the superserver are way better, but Korean challenger and superserver challenger are comparable. But once again, it doesnt matter which bronze players are better when assessing rank 1. It just matters who the top 10 are.

dopa and faker are like muhammad ali and mike tyson they both goats and both respect each other, nice video btw

Feels like this is a repost or is there anyother video about Dopa?

i knew it was dopa from his shadow...truely a beast player.

I don’t know how you have only 6k, it’s suprising, keep up the good work tho

I hate to admit it... But this guy is the all things League players want to be. Also I absolutely adore him cause he got this ban. When company that doesn't care about it's players bans you for 1k years it's the best feeling ever.

great video

Quality video!

I would say that this guy is the best player in the game, no doubt. Being able to reach rank 1 challenger almost every single season, and reaching rank 1 on the chinese super server is not something one does for breakfast. But apparently this guy just did.

Wow ty for this video.. now I'm gonna reach diamond for the first time because of this

I agree that Dopa and Faker should be in the conversation of “best solo queue player”, but EVERYONE forgets about MagiFelix and it’s a shame. Bro was top of the leaderboards with 5 accounts at once with one in each role

Dopa is gonna go crazy in season 1004

Nice Video,

Bro is the sasuke to fakers naruto

I like how this video focuses on Dopa and Dopa alone. I think people are forgetting that League is a 5v5 game, and everything happens all depends on your teammates.

where can i get your coaching?

If there ever lived a solo queue player that I would argue with this to take the title of "best", it would have to be MagiFelix. Who achieved top 10 with 5 seperate accounts at the same time, one for each role in the game. That is pretty ridiclous, considering most of us ever only hope to achieve a high rank in one role only.

Dopa advise giving off Art of War by Sun Tzu vibes.

You give Dopa's advices of like 10 seasons ago... gg

Admitting that you would only win 1/100 games vs Chovy, quite humble actually

dark king dopa. king of the underworld

The best player recognizes the best players , he said chovy is the best midlaner and we can see that is correct, he also said the guma is the best adc which is also true

Great video, I actually learned some new things about Dopa. I just wished you adressed his performance on other lanes and champions more. He was truly a monster. And compared to Faker, I'd have mentioned the difference in champpool. While Dopa could play any lane to Rank 1, his champion pool still pales in comparison to Faker, who can play any champion in this game, which you've never seen him play, and outshine challenger one tricks on said champs both mechanically and macrowise. He truly is an anti Faker. Both of those players inspired me so much, while Faker is Riots golden child and Dopa is banned until the heat death of the universe. My god, they even unbanned Tyler1, who truly didn't deserve it, but Dopa stays banned, not because of toxicity, but because of monetary reasons, which is earning money with the game from boosting. It really is sad.

Watched your last video about the king Agurin, and boosted my rank to break my years long bronze struggle. These videos honestly benefit league as a whole and you have my greatest thanks. Keep doin Gs work.

we like more content algorithm lord

all roads lead to Faker... Like people tend to do, they forget who laid those roads.. Dopa

we all know that Dopa's secret is his chair and desk height.

Truly a dopa down moment

10:50 im a little guy so I love this part. This video is underrated!!

nice video

more dopa

Meanwhile Magifelix : "Am I a joke to you ?" The man has gotten challenger by playing FILL and only playing each champion only ONCE. You cant even contextualize how crazy this is.

what is this repost?

Being consistent in choosing the optimal play despite other factors (other ppl, intuition…) Aiming and playing for direct the advantage instead of following the possibility of disadvantage can happened.
