Chovy’s Stats Are More Impressive, Making Fans Long For Faker
After concluding nearly three weeks of intense competition, it is undeniable that Chovy has played a crucial role in propelling his team towards the top of the 2025 Regular Seasons, as well as securing a ticket to MSI. A comprehensive table of statistics has been released for all five positions, showcasing Chovy’s exceptional performance that has left audiences in awe. He is also recognized for having the highest kill participation rate among all players currently competing in the LCK.

Over the years, we have witnessed Chovy’s remarkable improvement. In the current season, he has significantly adapted to his role as a playmaker while still being a formidable force against other midlaners. In fact, it is hard not to mention Chovy as the most dominant midlaner in the LCK today.
However, as Chovy’s stats continue to climb year after year, fans can’t help but compare him to the legendary Faker, especially when considering the ongoing debate about who is the greatest of all time (G.O.A.T) in the League of Legends community. 2025 is not the first year where Chovy has showcased great performance in the early stages of the season. He has also secured the MSI 2024 title. But at the World Championship, the pinnacle of competition, the championship title has always eluded Chovy.

Furthermore, when Gen.G faced T1, the team led by Faker, Chovy’s performance became even more crucial. In those matches, the psychological pressure seemed to weigh heavily on Chovy.
Chovy’s statistics are impressive and his skills are increasingly refined. However, what remains unclear is why he is often under pressure during the most critical moments. When looking at Faker, the contrast is stark. When T1 faced challenges, Faker demonstrated unparalleled resilience. He has been awarded the Finals MVP title twice at the World Championship, while Chovy has yet to achieve the same level of success.

Chovy Needs to Claim a World Championship Title to Be Compared to Faker
With the achievements Chovy has shown, he and his teammates are undoubtedly contenders for the 2025 Regular Seasons, MSI, and ultimately the World Championship. However, Chovy’s challenge remains: he must transition from being a strong contender to a World Champion.
This is no easy task. Moreover, it is also quite difficult to see Chovy becoming a midlaner as exceptional as Faker, who is often regarded as the best in League of Legends history. Without a World Championship title, all of Chovy’s impressive stats would merely be meaningless achievements.
