As is known, on January 9 (Vietnam time), LCK held a kick-off event before the new season for players who have the opportunity to attend showmatch matches. This is a quite special event, considered to be able to replace All-Star. In this event, 5 players and Lane in 5 different teams will be paired into the team to compete with other Lane teams. And although there are some unfortunate absence, but in the end, the event still attracts the great attention of the League of Legends community. And the championship team is the forest team with Oner as the captain.

Worth mentioning, in the same day of the event, the T1 players, especially Faker, still attracted the most Spotlight. “Demon King” also did not disappoint the audience when he knew how to “make content”. First, it was a comedy screen when Faker appeared in the jungle position of the mid lane. Perhaps because he did not often play in this position, Faker … forgot to bring punishment. This makes the game Remake. After that, Faker did not know how to control the messenger and let this charm hit the wall, losing close to blood even though he had not ironed any pillars.

But even in the final against the jungle team, Faker had an unbelievable shine. With the Poppy general who did not have many damage, it was a rushing into the middle of the 4 -player of LCK (Oner, Lucid, Gideon and Sylvie) but Faker stole the Baron charm in a standard manner. Of course, Faker did not escape when there were too many control effects and damage, but it was enough for him to have a “highlight” in this showmatch match.

Of course, because the matches are only showmatch, the players themselves also play with the relaxed mentality. Although Faker himself has a round role in the new role, there is a highlight, but his mid lane team must accept defeat. However, according to the audience, the matches at Kick-off are both adequate entertainment and help the players have the opportunity to interact with each other besides tense confrontations. And perhaps this year alone, the kick-off has successfully completed the role of this tournament.
