Referring to Faker, many people will probably think of one of the legends not only for League of Legends but also eSports and sports in general. At the age of 28, Faker has all that everything that an eSports player can dream of: completely dominating the game he plays, proclaimed “Quoc Bao” in his homeland, famous and influential to be indisputable as well as spread to other fields. Of course, Faker's assets could not be underestimated and can be said, the GOAT name of the League of Legends village was dedicated to him not too much at all.
Faker has everything that an eSports player or a sports athletes can dream of: glory, influence, fame, money
However, if a player is only respected for the titles, perhaps then when the player drops in terms of form and skills as an indispensable rule, that respect will gradually be lost. But with Faker is different. Over time, the community admires him more and Faker's attraction is more “terrible” than before. Not far away, right at Worlds 2023, the final match is extremely one -sided but still earned more than 6 million views. Other matches of T1 also dominated the Peak View statistics of the tournaments. It is thanks to a significant part of Faker.
A one -way final, only 3 games like Worlds 2023 still attracts more than 6 million views and all 5 top views of the history of League of Legends almost Faker
According to a BLV of LPL, Duoduo said shortly after the Worlds final last year: “Faker is not really respected by the title, but in a sport with the players mostly flowers that soon bloom, Faker is still alone. It has become part of that peak. “
“Faker is not necessarily respected only by the title, but in a sport with the players mostly flowers that are soon blooming, Faker remains alone. We have witnessed many generations of players climb on this mountain to seek greatness. Then they come down and leave us. But Faker remains there. When we look back, he became part of that height.”
The above judgment of male BLV is completely reasonable. Because, throughout the history of League of Legends, the form may flutter and the title may still refuse Faker, but his perseverance and persistence are immortal. Even, there was a time when Faker should be retired, and he was pushed to the bench, Faker was still there, using his ability to prove he was irreplaceable. Then the culmination of 2023 ups and downs has helped the whole world of League of Legends realize one thing: no one can replace Faker, in the past, present and the near future.
Faker is still persistent, still at the peak and has become the definition of that peak
At MSI 2024 this time, Faker will still be the leader to ensure the operation of T1 smoothly. And of course, he will still make every effort to join his teammates to add the title to the traditional room of T1 as well as his great career.
