[@DLUKZ274]

Yeah, which is not the best thing for the team for the future. Atm, though, everything's fine as he pilots the team, but Summer showed the vulnerability without him, and I feel that once he leaves, whoever is left in this team needs to step up BIG time to fill his role. Cause if they're complacent like this without him and they've been together for the last 2 years, it's likely the end of this organization.

[@akeno6752]

When the young players stepped up, people really started to say that Faker is getting carried. However, you have to remember that this is a team game and experience shines. This was the perfect example that in any kind of sport, the veteran does bring another level of depth to a team, and their value cannot be measured by statistics.

[@ameliagamalo58]

This statement is so true. Without a veteran player guiding the team, it will be like a body without it's soul. This just proves that experience is the most important thing in a team, and not just talent. Because even if you put 5 prodigies in a team, you can't be sure whether they can convert it to a win. And in a team game, where communication is one of the important factors, a veteran like Faker with insane map control, will be like a guiding light to T1.

[@KDYinYouTube]

Without faker, the other teams will not have to kill mid and so win the game. With faker, they need to aim for one men first and so that they will lose the game.

[@SwiftieBlink03]

10 years ago, I saw a recommend video of a young player wearing red. I don't know League of Legends back then. I clicked and literally made me follow all his tournaments. I tried learning about the league cause I like his playstyle. Been through ups and downs of SKT & T1. From the time of Marin to Zeus. It's Faker who brought me to the league. Much like how Kobe made me love basketball until he retired. I'll do the same.

[@jarinemarrane]

Aside from Faker's skill and experience, you can see how happy the rest of the team is with him. Zeus, Oner, Guma, and Keria were barely suppressing their smiles and stealing glances at him when he returned to the line-up. Four of them were fighting for their lives against each other during warm-ups while Faker was skipping around peeking at monsters and the kids were indulging him. In their game against LSB, Faker keeps getting killed and he was playfully groaning about why it always happens to him while the team were laughing, screaming, and scrambling to protect him while assuring Faker that the game isn't over yet.

[@lmntsgames3848]

This is just a different T1.. even I can't believe how lost T1 is without Faker.. Poby wasn't even horrible.. just eh.. he did what you expect him to do.. worst mid in the LCK.. still very raw.. but not so helpless.. but the other players look so different.. even Keria is fumbling so hard and ints like he's playing Yasuo in Gold.. it's so weird.. it's like everyone in the team went down to Poby's level when they should've been able to compensate for Poby's lack of experience.. it's so weird..

[@maxbenton3145]

he was also the worst mid in academy any lck mid would be fine to fit his shoes.

Because at this point, Faker provides stability and experience with the team, even when they are behind, Faker provides the leadership for them not to panic. His leadership is the game changer, most players are mechanically gifted but experience is still key.

[@shironium]

faker mindcontrolling his whole team and playing on 5 pcs at once wasn't a joke

[@allainangcao28]

I think Poby got too much flak considering the magnitude of the player he is supposed to replace. If it was a random mid laner he replaced and not the goddamn Demon King, I think he would have been treated more kindly. Plus, he is also just a rookie and doesn't have years of shot calling Faker has under his belt. I am more disappointed in the other players who are the vets to Poby and one of them should have taken responsibility in calling games.

[@PasserBy869]

Faker was not holding T1 back, he was holding the team together. Heck even Bengi "stepped down" because he can't handle the heat of Faker's absence. If anything, Faker's return and dragging his team to playoff finals only solidified his legacy and GOAT status.

[@hinro]

Keria started playing like a tilted hylisang when faker wasn't there. It was so odd to see him like that since he is quite possibly the best player on the team. He enables everyone and he just looked lost.

Have been a fan of Faker ever since up until now. Being a T1 fan is such a roller coaster ride and I'm glad of being part of it. Long live to the GOAT... the Demon King...

[@paugentes6346]

Even tho they didn't get LCK Championship, this gives me goosebumps, knowing that Faker has this huge impact on the whole team

[@awman9134]

I don't know if people actually don't know about this or just feels like to shit talk them, but from a lot of interviews with former teammates has shown the fact that faker's macro is unmatched. Most of the time he would know where the enemies are and would macro his team to do something to make a exchange. And when july hits, a.k.a the month that they lost faker, every single teammates of him looked absolutely LOST. It's truly unfair that people think he should retire and stuff, he's just the heart of T1, when the heart is not pumping the organs are just not going to be functional. He signed a 3 year contract after S12 ended for a reason. His in game performance might be bad from time to time, but they needed the brain.

[@Crowned_Hearts]

Its not only his skill either. Faker gives his team a HUGE morale boost. Making them confident that they can actually do this wich results in them performing a lot better. This shows how important team morale is. When Faker took his leave that morale must have plummeted to the rock bottom

[@PurpleFamCraySqadRAW]

[@mysteriesuniverse7684]

Looking at it in hindsight. This might have been a blessing in disguise. I think each player gained valuable experience in playing without Faker and helped them realize the holes in their game that Faker was covering for. So once Faker came back, I think a lot of the shown weaknesses were being patched and improved. Now we're seeing it come to fruition here at Worlds. Each player has made some ballsy "Faker"-like moves that has paid huge dividends.

[@7heRequiem]

If T1 wins Worlds this time somehow. It will end up being more emotional than last year. The fact that the mighty T1 is underdog this year where the veteran face of the team faced injury and made a comeback, where they have a bad history (Korea), all odds stacked against them!

[@Aetolus]

I'm just happy that he is finally happy with his performance, it has only been up since his Azir ult about a year ago. I've been playing for 13 years, Faker is the only reason I'm still playing and watching the game. When he retires, it'll mark an end for a lot of people. I'm 100% quitting when he's gone, game ain't the same anymore and it's time to move on and let the younger players take over.

[@15nunca]

"This year might be his last chance to lift the cup on home soil" And so he did. Trully the G.O.A.T

[@edagener883]

I’m sure he’s feeling exactly what a lot of people feel when they already know they are at the top of their area. Lewis Hamilton of F1, Tom Brady of NFL, Messi and Ronaldo of Football… Faker knows he is the best, but he doesn’t have the mindset of the best. Instead he wants to win as if he has never won before. The hunger stays the more and more you win. And it comes in even harder once you haven’t won it all in a while. Faker doesn’t need to to prove anything, he just wants to win again.

[@hq7145]

In my own term. Faker is like a Gargoyle statue. Some sort of guardian to the team. In the fantasy, even as a stone statue, Gargoyle instilled fears to the enemies and friends. Faker's presence in the team like a ship captain. To the enemy, he is the one that they had to guard against. Frequently we saw in the game, the enemy had to allocate more resources and man power just to take down his champion. Like in a football game where 2 or 3 players had to assign to one player on enemy team and this situation created a gap on another area.

[@lbneko1084]

The storyline was so great! From being almost unable to get to playoffs to becoming an LPL slayers to Worlds Champion

[@zarkomarkovski8514]

This T1 Roster is very good.. great solo laners however, Faker is Veteran Legend and he gave the team the confidence and help them climb. When Poby came to the place of Faker you can see that they did not had the spirit really.. even though Poby was good. They always had some haters, but thats nothing bacause i still hope that T1 can win Worlds 2023. T1 Always.. Fighting!!!

[@sleepyheartss]

A lot of people think Faker's presence is a detriment to T1 since they crumble when he's gone. But Its not just because he's good though. Its because hes the both the shotcaller AND the veteran player on the team. The other players may be better than Faker in certain aspects, but they are all young and new. They all deal with nerves and pressure and lack of confidence, in a game where those things are a disadvantage. Faker helps boost morale, lead the plays, and give them a perfect example of how to remain calm and play slow during high intensity situations. Its not a detriment atm bc when he DOES leave the other members will have more experience and a title under their belt. They will be able to fill the role Faker does. All great teams need an even greater Leader. It's a bit too soon to expect any of them to be ready to fill that right now, as even Faker had that when he was a rookie. It's not just about being a mechanical god when it comes to League of Legends. The mental battle is almost just as, if not more, important on the rift.

[@AMightyStorm]

Faker's role in T1 is incredible. I think you should have included the reaction the team had after beating KT when KT had chosen T1 because they thought they were the weaker team. It was pretty funny to see the way the players sent the message "you thought wrong". Interestingly, KT is STILL paying for their misjudgment of T1, as it caused them to have to fight through the path they've been given at Worlds. They just keep getting hell level matchups.

[@JonathanMerlinSymmank]

THAT is why he’s the greatest.

[@Gomace]

Ironically, it seemed like Faker's injury caused break made T1 a better team in the end. Faker had a short rest, healed a bit, and the roster became more in line with the fact that Faker was the Goat. They probably swallowed what little pride they might've had, and fully embraced Faker's shot calling.

[@imsakamoto4430]

This video should be enough to silence all Faker's clown haters. Yes it's true that Faker doesn't have the #1 stats like CS, KDA, KP and etc. He doesn't care about his stats as long as they win the game. I've been a T1 fan since 2015, so I can confirm that Faker's playstyle changed just like how the meta changes from time to time. He focuses more on shotcalling & playmaking not lane dominance. Stats alone are not enough to be considered as the "GOAT". What's the use of having good stats if you can't help your team win a title? Achievements, contributions to your team, the game, and the legacy you left behind are more significant to be considered as the GOAT.
