A little while ago, Griffin were on top of the world. In 2018, the rookie team came out of nowhere and upset some of the best, most respected teams out there.
The players’ individual skill and great teamwork helped Griffin climb the ranks faster than anyone expected. After an amazing year and a half, Griffin were ready to take on their first World Championship.
They were on the brink of becoming LoL royalty – until everything fell apart.

3:46 Man that SKT line-up was so good to watch 🙁
There isn't much left in that team? But Tarzan, Viper and Sword are still in the main line up. They're not playing well so far though. Dunno why lmao
I don't get the comments shitting on sword. Cvmax is out here choking players and griffin is scamming minors and shipping them off to China, and people are focused on sword? Really?
Where’s mata. I don’t see him any more :;(
I just find it funny that after all this, Sword got benched in favour of Untara.
Abuse? Giving a thorough beating is called education in many asian countries. The "education" my generation received from our parents… oh dear.. oh dear… if a few slaps or even punch and kick is abuse, I wonder what I went through….
This kind of behavior is normal in Korean cultural. This guy needs to go down. No one deserves to he abused.
Now the rise of League of Legends "Greatest Dynasty"
SKT
I miss Achilios and Papasmithy casting LCK
Thanks for continuing this story. I wondered how this would end.
One badass senator, glad he vindicated cvmax!
okay but what's with swords neck rolls?
When i see tarzan better than bengi, viper better than bang, chovy better than faker, and lehends better than wolf,. But sword, LOL.
hard to believe cv did those things they said he did. Beating the players? that’s ridiculous. Why would chovy and doran join him then. The GRF office was just pissed cv brought out their dark secret and they wanted to drag his name through the mud to tarnish his reputation or credibility. And btw, cv was right all along…Sword is a chump that’s nowhere near good enough to play in the top division of LCK
Can you look into a similar case in Phong Vu Buffalo??
They have Marketing, Sponsor and Player Contract issues, all of which causes the downfall of this potential roster 🙂
a video should be made about red reserve on the rise and downfall of the team
0:41 How to see faker on bush bcuz no have a wards and grf knows faker on a bush wait Wtf seriously?
Cvmax didnt do anything wrong. The only people alleging the assault are the only people who are still players of griffin who is being paid by griffin who cant say anything negative about griffin and have to say bad things about cvmax who disclosed all the corruption. Look at the contract the players are forced to sign. What do you think would happen if current griffin players say the truth. They will be fired with no warning ruining their career
Well a person can lie so…
The next great dynasty? they never won shit lol.
Reminiscent of Moscow 5
Wait I thought Chevy was the one calling out his coach Why did he join DRX with him as coach
"Next great dynasty" xD good to see some good ol comedy once in a while xD
Is this a reference of the meme "well thats how mafia works"?
Idk much about LoL but i can tell you from following kpop never trust korean companys/entertainments/contracts or anything like that
Isnt theScore a pornsite?
This tims i’m pity Tarzan and Viper,they should stay top on table.
Lets be honest grf was never a dynasty and would never be. In their first year they choked and in the second ear skt bested in both finals
i almost watched this, until i realized i don't care about LoL, and that LoL lingo is gibberish to me
10:00 G2Alexu is me
Chovy and Doran were most "abused" in their game feedback, but followed cvMax and process to dominate the league along with T1 and Gen.g coincidence? Meanwhile Griffin's tarzen got demoted from king of the jungle to jungle joe, and sword process nepotism his way as a starter to march his team closer to relegation match dream like his current coach did many time with greenwings.
Damn I remember the beginning of this game where tournaments were organized in chatroom and MLG websites and the prize was no more than 100 dollars. I was on a team thought i was good now i cant get out of gold.
when see drx is better which chovy and cvmax look like it not luck but because of them
gotta dislike because loco is in this
The end result of Riot spending years fucking around in Korea and working destabilize their pro scene. Shit like this would have never happened in the old days.
I wish they had fallen apart before world's, I wanted C9 to go to knockout round
The first day i met Griffin, i felt in love immediately with them. i was so hyped when chovy has 100kda, i felt so good when they were champions. i feel so good that they went to worlds and lose to world champion. i thought next year would be a dominating Griffin year with doren, tarzen, chovy, viper and lehands. then, this happens….
