In the history of League of Legends, many World Champions have been questioned about the real level when they ascended the throne. Because, League of Legends is a collective game and of course, in a match, it will rarely have a situation where the whole team shines in the style that everyone stands out. There must be people who are willing to shine in a “background” way, or devoted their ability because of the victory of the team but is not recorded worthy. But a World Champion who has recently been considered to know only “win” teammates in the journey to take the world of League of Legends.
DK won extremely dramatic against KT
Specifically, it is the visual of MV Worlds 2023 – Deft. Accordingly, recently Deft joined KT Rolster (gathered two other World Champions, Pyosik and Beryl) “beach” from the Spring LCK playoffs in the 2024 match against the other Dplus. In fact, DK is the most “easy -to -breathe” opponent that KT can hope to face, when they were Kwangdong Freecs for “eating onions” in the group stage. But then, KT's defeat stems from a backward, and ended with game 5 “clean” without being defeated by the DK players.
Deft becomes a attack target
Witnessing the performance of the KT star, especially the “harmless” and faint of Deft, many viewers were extremely disappointed. On many forums, even at LCK, the player used to be considered to be directly competing with Faker for the Goat title of the League of Legends land of Kim Chi, now heavily criticized. There is even a straightforward comment: “Deft and Beryl should have rested for a long time.
“I know Deft does well at Worlds 2022, but can someone tell him that he should have retired from that time? He played as if he was still the player of DK. And he is just trying to prove his championship completely depends on his teammate.”
However, as mentioned, League of Legends is a collective game and each player himself has its own contribution. However, maybe Deft also needs to realize that his actual time is over. And the bad performances, in a certain way, are affecting the great career that he has built up from the beginning of the professional village of League of Legends.
