Were you able to learn from Faker's gameplay?
What other players do you look to learn from?

All i really want is to see this man take the worlds trophy one last time. Just one last time.

[BlackHawkification]

His biggest invisible skill is the passive global taunt forcing enemy to come mid

[tokinico]

Guy also heavily contributes off the game too. Truly the GOAT

[Linkingx]

1. Global Taunt - everyone wants to kill him
2. Foresight - he knows what you want to do and whats going to happen, and moves accordingly
3. Team Leader - not only emotionally but als as a shot caller, mind controls his team m8s into peak
4. Micro is still fire - its not by far the best, but its at least roughly on par with other younger and top level mid laners

Faker his him - and we hope that T1 and the korean police can protect him from this ongoing issue.

So fun to be working on this with you! Much more to come 👀

I learned all of my macro as a casual player by following Faker and T1 over the years. Many call it boring, but I really like the long-term strategic plays in LCK where you can see teams like T1 (in good form) out-macroing their opponents. I watched a team hesitate for like 15 seconds on their next move and within that time, T1 got three turrets.

[Syveril]

The amount of work and dedication that goes into staying on top for so many years is insane. To keep up with the mechanical skill and constantly be innovating in terms of decision-making is incredible.

[Argosh]

This is the reason why I greatly enjoy watching all T1 games. It's like watching a clockwork. When Poby was in there I couldn't watch them play.

That's a very usefull and nice video, should really make more for all the lanes

[MrReese]

Did LoL Esports hire guys from SkillCapped, etc.? :D

Also, I think everyone knows by now after his injury that he mind controls and macro manages all players on his team to be successful. That alone makes him absolutely unique.

[Zengo.]

The whole video in one word:
anticipate

This guy is the best foresighted player in league

[TheRagheb]

That's the thing I love the most about him, why he's my GOAT, it's not the big plays, it's the small things he does, and learned from years of playing league that makes him the best

[blue-pineapple]

Please make more of these. Even the basics of league can be very overwhelming for new players and the tutorial available in game is too lacking. I do hope one day Riot would make basic tutorial vids, compile them, and make them easily accessible from the game client. Ofc that's assuming the client can handle anything.

[TJBlackHearted]

Having faker is like playing with the midlaner and the coach at the same time.

[Bombzilla]

I hope to see more of this type of video. It makes learning much easier and gives a greater appreciation to the players who have put in the work and effort to become so good at this game. These truly are the things that many don't see. Great video

[lisake]

One key thing is Faker was able to get Oner on his mid lane to push or gank the lane whenever he needs. For most of time, we have difficulty to get the jungler helping us to do it.

[rawrSAMI_]

Truly the GOAT of esports. His incredible hard work and dedication to League is remarkable.

[kevingbergiste]

His global taunt is the most overpowered ability. More overpowered than TheShy’s global taunt, but If they were both on the same team, the enemy team would just be petrified and lose to indecisiveness.

Faker then: the God of laning phase
Faker now: the God of Macro
