The former LCK star has a parameter that far exceeds Faker's but is actually completely “inferior”.
One of the most prominent ADCs in the LCK in recent years is Peyz. Although he is the youngest among the ADCs of the top teams, according to statistics, he is the player with the highest win rate in LCK history: 78.8% after 212 games. At the bottom of this table is Faker, with 66.8% win rate.
However, Peyz is also the player with the least number of games… on this list. Accordingly, Peyz's number of games is only better than Bengi (Forest), Piglet (only played in LCK for 1 season since this tournament changed its name), Looper, Hojin and Impact (total time playing in LCK). LCK lasts less than 2 years).
The remaining 4 people on the list with lower win rates than Peyz all have at least twice as many matches as the former Gen.G star or more. Among them, Faker, although ranked last, is the player who has played the most games – 994 games. This number is more than 4 times the number of games played by Peyz. The remaining 3 names including Khan, Chovy and Canyon also all have games of 300 or more.
Faker is “unmatched” but Peyz also leaves many regrets
In fact, Peyz is a player that can be said to utilize resources very well. However, he did not have moments to turn the match alone like the legends Piglet, Bang or later Gumayusi, Elk (LPL) often did. Peyz himself is strong when the team is favorable and this has happened many times over the years.
At the present time, Peyz has moved to LPL. But almost certainly in his upcoming international journeys (if any) he will have to encounter at least one LCK team. That will be an opportunity and also a challenge for Peyz to prove that he can still shine, even when there are no Chovy, Lehends or Canyon around to fully support him.
