Faker is almost absolutely silent during the drama T1
In T1's drama chain from November 2024 (the time of Zeus's explosion) so far, there is a character who has always been expected by the League of Legends community and T1 fans but almost absolutely silent, is Faker. Calculating the total time since Zeus's transfer drama exploded, Faker only mentioned the dramas 3 times. And all 3 are just general sharing, and call on fans to continue supporting the players mentioned in the story (Zeus and Gumayusi).
Faker almost silent from the Drama T1 – Zeus until now is T1 – Gumayusi.
But in fact, Faker's silence, if considered according to the maximum professional personality of the “Demon King”, his silence almost completely throughout the drama is completely understandable.
Faker cannot surpass the right to coach T1
At T1 at the moment, Faker is in the name of the name, but his main role is still a player. Moreover, in the training bench is Kkoma – the close teacher of Faker and Tom and Mata are not new to him. Therefore, Faker can interfere with professional issues such as how to operate the match or the advantages and disadvantages in the match. The remaining, the problem lies at the coaching committee and team leadership.
Faker could not (and probably did not want) to overcome the coach's rights.
Therefore, Faker could not share anything about the transfer of Zeus or interfere with the decision of the Gumayusi personnel. Not to mention, Anti-Fan attacked CEO Joe because of the speech “intervene to put Gumayusi into the main squad”. But as the CEO, he still has authority. If in exchange for Faker, even Gumayusi himself will be even more troublesome.
Maybe internal t1 is not until Faker has to speak up
Remember, in 2021, when coach Daeny continuously rotated the squad and Faker had to regularly be prepared and was also attacked underground on the media, until the middle of the summer, he did not hold back anymore. But at that time, not only the rights and achievements of T1 were affected, Faker was also “insiders”.
But when Faker had to speak up, it was almost certain that T1 had to act.
Regarding Zeus's drama, the incident has many external factors. And Gumayusi's drama, after all, is just the story of T1 and the gunner born in 2002. Even if there are people far away, in T1, Gumayusi and Faker are just teammates. Moreover, the achievement of T1 at LCK Cup 2025 is also unavoidable. Meanwhile, Regular Seasons 2025 has only been through 4 matches and has not been able to say anything.
Therefore, maybe Faker himself does not feel the need to speak personally. Because, once Faker acts, T1 must have a change and there will be consequences behind. Perhaps Faker is only observing and waiting for the appropriate time, maybe when T1 no longer controls his play results anymore.
