There are plenty of esports with legitimate debates over who a game’s greatest player is. League of Legends is not one of those esports, and Faker proved why he’s earned that title yet again today.
T1’s win over G2 today didn’t just send the storied team to the Worlds 2024 Knockout stage in Paris, France. The victory also happened to be a first for any player in League history: Faker’s 100th win at Worlds competition. And he did it in style against the EU giants, first leading T1 in kills and sealing match one with a triple kill before running it back on Ahri in a back-and-forth game two, where he combined with Zeus for eight kills apiece. T1 rode their performance and an absolutely monster Baron steal from Oner to a 2-0 sweep over Caps and company.
