You know Faker. You know his story.
The greatest player to ever touch League of Legends exploded onto the scene.
By the end of his first year of pro play, he was a world champion. He was the face of his game, the next generation.
But at Worlds 2017, that all came crashing down. His air of invincibility, his mystique, it all crumbled.
But he wasn’t done. Faker wasn’t the best in the world anymore. But that just meant he had a new mountain to climb.

Can you talk about Brtt, from CBLOL?(Brazillian LOL championship) The guys a beast, but has always gone under radar for most of the followers of LOL esports.
1:55 WRONG GUY BUT IT WAS SAID xqcS
The reason why Korea is losing is becouse all the good players are leaving to go for higher wages in China. If there was a strict rule of import and export of Pro players than LCK would have dominated 2018 and 19
faker become code geass character
Yo what is that song at 18:32
Astralis one-upped him LOL
is it a bug?
1:55 AGANE
Let Bengi play.
I already quit League but this still makes me cry :'< and Faker still inspires me outside of League.
SKT's dynasty maybe ended but I was, I am, and I will always be a fan of the greatest team ever played on the history of league.
"The unkillable demom king had died"
Ok
Respect, self-respect focus, mental exert, discipline and analysis = Faker
The GOD. I don't even play League anymore, but his Zed v Zed outplay early career still gives me goosebumps
I see senpai face I click.
watching videos about faker gives me the hunger for rank 1 challenger lmao
he get killed in dota 2
At this point Faker's name could never be tainted, even if he loses this year and retire he's still a God in my eyes. No player can will be able to reach faker's status for a while I personally don't see it happening. He IS the reason I started playing back in 2015 and he was the reason that made love this game and love worlds. Even to this day when I see that zed outplay, it still brings chills down my neck. I will never forget him and I know millions of others won't either. When he retires if Riot doesn't make a hall of fame for HIM, it would be a great disservice to him for what he's done for the game and community.
faker? who?
-miracle
So much hype for G2 and then they got smacked, it wasn't even close
