The “Unbelievable” Performance of Faker in Rank
In recent years, the dominance of Faker has remained consistent, achieving high ranks throughout the seasons. However, with the recent changes in T1, Faker is ready to shine once again. Notably, champions like Azir and Orianna in Faker’s hands can become extremely dangerous tools for playmaking. Recently, in a ranked match, he left the audience in awe.

In that match, Faker utilized Azir while facing a gank from Zed and Zac – two champions with very strong crowd control abilities. However, he not only dodged Zed’s Q skill but did so three times in a row despite the tight space. Additionally, Faker evaded Zac’s Elastic Slingshot and managed to escape from both champions simultaneously.
Witnessing Faker’s performance with the “assassin” champion, many viewers were left in admiration. One commentator remarked, “At 29 years old, still performing at this level, you have to wonder when this player will be considered the G.O.A.T.” Meanwhile, another opinion suggested, “Zed is a nightmare today. In such a confined space, dodging all three Qs feels like a slap in the face.”
It’s worth noting that Faker’s rank is not particularly low (currently Diamond 1), and his opponents are also skilled players (Zed still resides in the Diamond tier). This emphasizes how Faker managed to “outplay” them multiple times in a single skirmish.

Of course, ranked matches can vary in terms of competitiveness. However, it is clear that Faker is in great form. If he continues to utilize playmaking champions effectively, T1 fans have every reason to be optimistic about their team’s success, even if they face off against top-tier teams.
