The only thing is, the LCK Summer 2024 champion must soon stop in the Quarterfinals after an unexpected loss. doubted Bilibili Gaming.

Faker has always been a role model for professional players

Even a former World Championship champion, Ghost, once asserted: “If you want to become a professional player, you must take defeating Faker as your goal to be successful.” Ghost is also an old opponent of T1 when his Damwon Gaming at the time of dominance defeated T1 many times, especially in the LCK Summer 2021 final or the Worlds Semifinals the same year later.
Both players are still close despite standing on two front lines
