The emperor of League of Legends (LoL) esports, Lee Sang-hyeok, aka ‘Faker’, has proven that he is still in his ‘era’.
Lee’s team T1 won the 2024 LoL World Championship (hereinafter referred to as Worlds) finals held at the O2 Arena in London, England on the 2nd, defeating Bilibili Gaming (BLG) of the Chinese league LPL with a set score of 3 to 2, and achieved a dramatic victory.
By lifting the Summoner’s Cup for the second consecutive year, T1 and Lee Sang-hyeok set an unprecedented record of winning Worlds five times. 안전한 카지노사이트
Lee’s clutch play saved the team in a moment of crisis.
T1, who lost the first set to BLG, took the second set and equalized the score.
However, they were cornered after losing the third set to BLG.
However, Lee Sang-hyeok, who chose Sylas in the fourth set, took the opponent’s ultimate and used it exquisitely to lead the team to victory.
In the 5th set that followed, he chose Galio and joined the team with great ultimate skills at important moments, taking the lead in suppressing BLG.
Lee Sang-hyeok, who showed great performance that day, was selected as the Final MVP of the finals.
He proved his strength by being selected once again after Worlds in 2016.
With this win, T1 has established their second dynasty.
After winning two consecutive World Championships in 2015 and 2016, they have achieved another consecutive championship.
In particular, since 2022, they have clearly demonstrated that they are the “best team in the world” by advancing to the World Championship finals three times in a row with the same team, known as “Geo-Pegu-Ke.”
Geo-Pegu-Ke is an acronym of the first letters of the names of the T1 players (Choi “Zeus” Woo-je, Moon “Owner” Hyun-jun, Lee “Faker” Sang-hyeok, Lee “Gumayusi” Min-hyeong, and Ryu “Keria” Min-seok).
