Faker and his teammates had an almost perfect journey in the LCK Spring 2023 when they only lost 1 match so far. But the T1 captain is still sad.
As for T1, they went through the group stage of LCK Spring 2023 with almost absolute success when they lost only 1 match. Faker and his teammates currently have only 1 match left against Nongshim RedForce – the opponent who is at the bottom of the table and has no longer any goals in the tournament. So it can be confident that T1 will not let any scratches happen before the important playoffs.
The reason why Faker feels unsatisfied despite having an almost perfect group stage
But with a player who always sets the highest goals, still has very strict rules in his own competition, Faker is still somewhat unsatisfied with himself throughout the journey of the round. board.
In particular, the captain of T1 admitted that after the match against Dplus KIA (T1’s last strong opponent in the group stage), he was not too excited because he had won the champion of Worlds 2020.
Faker shared: “My teammates played well today, but in general, in the group stage, I still feel a bit regretful. I feel that my form is not really too good and I will try my best. to show more in the upcoming playoffs.”
During the group stage, Faker was not at the top in terms of minion stats or kills. However, he is the player who deals the most damage in T1. There is an opinion that Faker often moves to other lanes to support teammates and open up more small skirmishes. Besides, he also actively exchanges skills with opponents during the laning phase.
The champions most used by Faker in the group stage (Azir, Gragas) all possess a skill set of long-range poke and multi-target damage. This makes it possible for Faker to clear minions quickly and easily to deal as much damage as possible to the opponent.
Faker’s dissatisfaction is justified when he always sets himself the highest goal and perhaps he also wants to contribute more to the team’s achievements. The road ahead of T1 still has the LCK Spring 2023 playoffs and possibly MSI 2023 beyond. So more than anyone, Faker wants to win, not the empty season.
