T1 2022
2022 is a year T1 in general and Faker in particular achieved many achievements. The achievement of all over the spring, although it has been over a long time, can make viewers feel that it does not exist, but it must be affirmed that may not have any teams that can fully do such a season. Just all the quintessence in 2022, the joys of the T1 collective were all placed in the glorious spring.
MSI in the summer is a difficult time for the T1 collective, when they are unstable in many aspects, many positions, thereby only winning the second place throughout the international and domestic. Coming to the World Championship when not accepting too high appreciation like Geng, JDG or even Top Esports, T1 still reached the semi -finals, followed by the final.
Failure is a pity and no one wants, even inevitably heartbreaking. But looking back at the panoramic view of this year, T1 can be confident to see them as experience for each individual player to continue in 2023, even though it is not easy when returning to efforts little by little.
Faker's imprint in T1's squad 2022
The failures of T1 in this year's finals are not an end to their journey, not fading away the contributions of the team members. Faker is the same. Looking at the LCK teams to the World final this year, all are created in harmony between youth and experience factors. For T1 alone, the experience element is in the mid lane, where the old general has played for nearly 10 years of his career – Faker.
As the personal skills of the players in the world gradually gained together, Faker was difficult to create a difference, what he contributed to the team was the tactic. It can be said that Faker understood this game smoothly, but in the two MSI semi -finals as well as the World Championship, it was confirmed that T1 wanted to go quickly, he could use the skill to fill it, but if he wanted to go far, he needed Faker's tactical mind.
The MSI semi -final between T1 and G2 Esports ended with a quick ratio, but in all 3 games, almost the ability to create pressure from the middle line to 2 wings of Faker is very good. Compared to the Bengi during the forest, he no longer received as many support as before, so that the amount of resources that the team put in Faker's hands was always not much but he always made a breakthrough.
This has also been shown again in the World Final semi -final this year, where people see clearly T1 except for game 4 too destroyed, the remaining games, total fighting or small fighting are only a nine ten with Jingdong Gaming. But in important games, Faker is the one who speaks up whether it is about skills or tactics.
He released the Ryze card in 2 games with 2 different ways. One is a big target macro as well as pushing the building, a Ryze stood at tons of damage to the JDG squad. He reminded people to remember the ancient magician who used to make his name, and the last game, he also used the Shurima Emperor. Faker has shown all the followers to see the supreme realm that a mid lane can be done in a professional match, showing that Faker 2022 is a Faker who has completed comprehensively in both Macro and Micro compared to himself in the past.
The unfinished individuals
Another world final, the 5th World Finals that Faker came to the final and was also the 7th period he participated in for 10 years of competition. It was really a achievement that it was hard to break later.
The number of World Champions that Faker participated in so far has reached more than 100 games. At his 100th game in the world final, Bengi also said: “I do not know that the game just now is the 100th game at his Worlds, Faker has been playing for 10 years, it comes quickly. We have started playing together since being a professional player, until now, he is still playing and getting good achievements. I think Faker is a great, great player!”
Yes, time passed and when involuntarily turned around, the records also followed. Until now, along with a record of more than 100 matches in the World Final, Faker also owns impressive records as nearly 400 defeated and 600 support networks at the playground that many players have never touched this. Those who seem to be able to overcome him, or occupy the glory of the Immortal Demon King quickly bloomed, or even retired before him for a long time.
Not only is the long -term symbol, the national treasure of Korean League of Legends, Faker is also a story of energy, never stopped passion. Many players in the world after the championship, runner -up, gradually lost their motivation, gradually because of money that exchanged many things, but perhaps for Faker, what made him worship was because of his passion never turned off. 10 years since the first time he reached the top of the glory, he could still reach the final of the World Championship, even if it was a failure, it was a long -term journey, showing that he was not only a great player but also maintaining his greatness throughout a long decade.
After all, 4 world championships, 3 MSI championships are still a record that Faker has not touched in 2022, although it is very close to him. It is a pity for the Immortal Demon King. Of course, the inherent records were like a wall that would hardly rush in 10 years, but Faker fans would definitely regret a lot for a unfinished year with the achievements of the Demon King, even though he himself had more positive marks than the period 2020-2021.
