1
Most people think 2025 Faker is one of the best versions of Faker, but he doesn't even make this list and soon you'll see why.
2
I compared the statistical dominance, accomplishments, stakes in pressure, midlaying competition, and pure sentiment of every year of Faker's career to create the ultimate top five.
3
The five best versions of Faker.
4
But before we get to who's hiding behind first place, let's look at the most underrated world championship season in Faker's
5
career t1 headed into the 2024 season with a target on their back as the reigning world champions
6
and it started to have a very real effect on their
7
ability to play the game danger hell the entire lck was
8
at risk oh my god no t1 were unable to practice
9
with these ddos attacks running rampant a huge setback for the team
10
that would hurt them and crucial series later
11
but this hurt faker even more faker built his career off of ruthless preparation repetition and solo queue for For instance,
12
in 2019, Faker averaged close to 6 hours of solo queue practice a day.
13
At the time of that recording, he had played 679 solo queue games that year.
14
Just for comparison, his teammate
15
Khan had only played 462.
16
See, every version of Faker you'll see on this list dealt with and overcame pressure.
17
But the reason 2024 Faker is so underrated is
18
that he had to deal with that pressure and live up to his own expectations without the practice he normally relied on.
19
The impressive thing is Faker's 2024 season numbers were very similar to his 2019 numbers despite playing with no practice,
20
but 2024 was a return to form for Faker's laning as well.
21
He averaged a 0 .5 plus CS differential, his highest average since 2020, and he secured 33 solo kills that year,
22
ranking Faker above both Chovy and Knight, even though both Chovy and Knight are considered the better laners at that point in their career.
23
Also, before anyone loses their mind, I'm not saying
24
Baker is better than those guys because he's got more solo kills, okay?
25
Just relax.
26
If anything, he's better because of what he does at the end of the year, but I'll get to that.
27
Now, despite his impressive stats, especially considering the lack of practice,
28
Baker was pretty much never in contention for the best mid laner in the world for most of the year.
29
That title belonged to Chovy.
30
Faker had a 6 -12 head -to -head record versus Chovy at one point, including losing a crucial series in the LCK Spring Finals.
31
Chovy's machine -like consistency was unlike anything Faker had ever faced before in his career.
32
But Faker would have one last opportunity for redemption during the semifinals of Worlds.
33
It was Gen .G, the tournament favorites, versus T1.
34
The best player of today, Chovy, versus the best player in history, Faker.
35
This matchup would not only determine who would go to the world finals, but a win here with cement Chovy's status above Faker in today's game.
36
With thousands of eyeballs glued to this matchup, Faker chose to be bold.
37
At a glance, Chovy's world stats are better than Faker's, but when you dive deeper,
38
Faker is actually ahead in CS more frequently at 50 minutes than the laning god himself, Chovy, and average a higher first blood percentage.
39
What this means is that while Chovy spent a lot of his time accruing CSA through farming later in the game,
40
Faker decided to sacrifice his individual stats to make plays around the map in the early game.
41
By the way, if you're into these deep breakdowns of your favorite professional players, make sure to subscribe.
42
Anyways, ultimately Faker's superior early game playmaking helped give T1 the win.
43
See, Chovy had beaten Faker all year.
44
Some even said Chovy could one day become the GOAT.
45
But Faker took his greatest rival down at the absolute height of their powers, settling this quote -unquote debate once and for all.
46
But turns out, I've been bullshitting you this whole video so far.
47
Faker's greatest challenge in 2024 wasn't Chovy after all.
48
It was up ahead.
49
Winning in the finals was another monster midlaner, Knight.
50
Knight was the best midlaner from China, having the tournament of his life.
51
Everyone wanted to see if Knight could become the first LPR mid laner to slay the unkillable
52
Demon King at the biggest tournament in esports.
53
After a Game 3 win and a strong start in Game 4, it looked like it was going to happen,
54
until Faker gambled it all on one game winning.
55
Now remember I said
56
Pierce had been factored into these rankings?
57
So Caria talked about the play after
58
Worlds, saying he trusted Faker so much to make the game -winning play
59
that he followed up without even knowing if Faker would succeed.
60
That was the level of trust 2024 Faker had from his teammates.
61
His aura was so great that Karius said he could actually feel it.
62
But wait, Knight was Faker's toughest opponent that year for a reason.
63
Despite the brutal loss in Game 4, BLG was battling T1 in Game 5.
64
Knight was on his signature Ahri playing every situation just right, and again Team Win the World's chances were hanging in the balance.
65
But again, Faker goes forward.
66
Faker flashes in, and down goes
67
Knight once again when you need someone, when you need anyone to stand up and show just what this game is like!
68
Faker's re -engage on Gallier turns the game around.
69
Faker won his 5th
70
World Championship and took home his 2nd
71
Admiral Worlds Finals MVP.
72
He ended the year winning the LCK Player of the Year and Midlaner of the Year, awards voted on by many of his peers.
73
The ultimate validation.
74
In a year when he had less practice than any other version of himself and faced the best midlaners of his career,
75
he showed he was willing and able to make the game winning plays that they could not.
76
It's that fearless playmaking when the pressure was dialed up combined with the personal accolades
77
and world championship win that put him in the number 5 slot on this list.
78
And circling back to that 2025 comparison for a second, although he also won worlds last year,
79
he did not receive the personal accolades he did in 2024.
80
Nor did he beat the midliners of the caliber of Peak Knight and Peak Chovy,
81
even though I think BDD is a monster in his own right.
82
But all of this said, as good as 2024 Faker was, his heroics pale in comparison to the next few versions of Faker on this list.
83
Faker's 2017 season ended like this, and this is exactly why this is one of the best versions of Faker ever.
84
But before I skip ahead to the end, what was going on in 2017?
85
SKT headed into 2017 having won back -to -back world championships.
86
They reworked the roster for the second year in a row, replacing top laner
87
Duke with Huni and Jungle Legend and Faker's right -hand man, Bengi, with Peanut.
88
All eyes were on Faker to see
89
if he could continue to dominate the league of legends world even with the roster constantly changing around him
90
and faker answered the call faker's 2017 season stats were better
91
than his 2024 season stats in almost every category kt pon
92
one of the greatest mid laners in league of legends history said this ahead of his matchup against faker
93
and skt in the playoffs since skt is centered around faker i'll have a lot on my shoulders
94
and legendary korean caster cloud templar added ahead of msi sure all
95
that i'm sure of is
96
that he is the best player in the world the team skyrocketed to an lca trophy
97
and an msi victory two trophies he failed to win in 2024 plus he did a time where china
98
and europe were starting to become a threat on the international stage
99
and you see just how serious of a threat they would come for Faker at Worlds.
100
But following the team's MSI win, the team began to struggle with the meta and with various players hitting slumps.
101
Huni was no longer the consistent top lane carry, and the team's rockstar bot lane duo
102
Bang and Wolf were no longer as consistent as they once were either.
103
SKT were ultimately defeated in the LCK Summer Finals by Longshu.
104
And suddenly, SKT's invincible aura in Korea was shattered.
105
Faker was still incredible, being ranked as the number one player in the world heading into Worlds 2017.
106
But the question was, would Faker be enough to save SKT this time?
107
Remember when I said
108
China and Europe were starting to become a threat on the international stage?
109
Well, in the quarterfinals, SKT found themselves down 2 -1 to the huge underdogs from Europe, Misfits.
110
2017 Faker's teammates were genuinely struggling to match their opponents.
111
That's something Worlds winning versions of Faker never had to deal with.
112
So Faker took matters into his own hands.
113
Faker played a masterclass of a game 4 on Ryze, somehow hitting almost 11 CS per minute while participating in almost every fight around the map.
114
Korean fans reacted after the series saying honestly, if it wasn't for Faker, Misfits would've won.
115
Wolf gets himself out alive as Alvari gets taken down by Bang.
116
And we get to see a fight where Misfits' carries are not able to deal with...
117
Now if you thought this performance was incredible, you probably forgot all about this one.
118
It's Faker's greatest individual performance ever.
119
Check it out.
120
By this point, everyone could tell this SKT was significantly weaker than the SKT of old.
121
After just escaping Misfits, Faker was now tasked with taking out Chyna and Uzi, arguably the second best player in the world,
122
and the perfect meta for his playstyle.
123
This was the Arden Sensor meta.
124
This item at one point had a 94 % usage rate.
125
It was so broken because it turned every support into a healing bot, and every AD carry like Uzi into an unkillable monster.
126
And it was supposed to make mid laners more supportive too.
127
But Faker said damn the odds.
128
He averaged more than 9 CS per minute and over 83 % kill participation in the series,
129
meaning he was generating his own massive leads while somehow being involved in almost every kill on the map.
130
His performance in this series is widely considered the greatest 1v9 performance in League of Legends history.
131
How did 2017
132
Baker even lose the World Championship? he looks unstoppable.
133
Well, how do you stop someone so great
134
that they can literally 1v9 the game even when all his teammates are worse than their counterpart?
135
You don't let him play.
136
I'm locked in Malzhar in three straight games.
137
A champion designed for its simple role, neutralize the opponent.
138
See, no region, no meta, or no team could outplay 2017 Faker.
139
The only way to beat 2017 Faker was to not let him play the game.
140
In a way, it's actually the ultimate compliment of his greatness.
141
Now, you might argue Faker won
142
Worlds in 2024 with better individual accolades, so shouldn't he be higher?
143
Although team success in individual accolades may favor 2024 Faker slightly, I believe his stats, his performance under pressure playing with an underperforming team,
144
his ranking among top mids, and overall pure sentiment was higher for 2017 Faker.
145
So that's why 2017 Faker ranked slightly higher for me on this list.
146
2013 Faker came into the league as this super hyped solo queue prospect.
147
Some wanted to see if he could live up to the hype, while others were rooting for his downfall.
148
But no one could have expected what happened next.
149
Faker's first opponent was one of the best midliners in Korea, Ambition.
150
Ambition was supposed to school Faker, but Faker schooled him instead with the most unexpected solo kill.
151
Faker secured four kills within the span of a minute, completely taking over the game.
152
As the weeks went on, it became clear this wasn't just a hot start.
153
In fact, this dominance would continue even at the biggest tournament in esports.
154
Faker led the entire league and earned gold per minute across both splits.
155
And after placing third in the spring split, Faker got even better in summer.
156
SKT took home of their first title in OG in summer with Faker leading all mid laners in KDA.
157
Within a blink of an eye,
158
rookie Faker had become the best player in one of the most stacked versions of the best esports region in the world.
159
But the pressure for Faker to do it at Worlds was immense.
160
At the previous year's
161
Worlds, Korean favorites of Zuber Frost had fallen in the finals.
162
Now Korea was sending a rookie as their best hope for a first world championship.
163
The expectation was that Faker would carry the weight of an entire region on his first try.
164
Not only that, but his own peers have mounted the pressure on Faker as well.
165
Faker just takes lanes that might not be as one -sided as people think
166
and he just dominates them everybody sentiment for 2013 faker was way beyond anything 2017
167
or 2024 faker had but the pressure on 2013 faker to perform was also greater
168
but faker somehow exceeded those expectations anyway faker hit charm after
169
charm on what would become a signature the max range charm the lockup the rookie campaign ended with his first
170
and korea's burst, World's Title, and Kespa's League of Legends Midlane Award.
171
I believe 2013 Faker had the best combination of 2024 and 2017, with insane individual dominance, team and individual accomplishments,
172
but with superior pure sentiment.
173
For those reasons, 2013 Faker is the third best version of Faker on this list.
174
But although 2013 Faker was maybe the most individually dominant version of Faker,
175
the last two versions of Faker on this list were even more well -rounded, which is scary to think about.
176
2016 Faker gets overlooked a lot because it's not quite as good as the best version of Faker on this list.
177
But 2016 Faker is actually better than you might remember.
178
Now let me set the stage.
179
Before the 2016 season, the team lost Maren.
180
Maren was an important carry and shot caller for the team.
181
Some even claimed that he was a better player than Faker during the 2015 run.
182
The pressure was on Faker to prove that 1.
183
The team could win without Maren and two, prove he was always the best player on SKT.
184
And he sure did.
185
Faker averaged a better KDA, better CS differential, and better damage numbers than he did in 2017 and 2024.
186
And he's more team -oriented in his playmaking than in 2013,
187
while still leading all mid -laners in the world in solo kills with a ridiculous 50 solo.
188
SKT had one of their most successful stretches ever, winning the spring split, winning IAM Katowice, and winning their first ever MSI.
189
A top -tier Korean midlaner crown would say this about Baker.
190
He's so exceptional as a midlaner.
191
Always number one, always a champion, winning every tournament he enters.
192
I feel like it wouldn't be any fun.
193
While Martin failed to even make it to any international events, Baker took home the MSI Finals MVP.
194
Case closed on that debate, by the way.
195
But the success didn't last forever.
196
In the summer split, the team hit a wall.
197
Players who had looked unstoppable in spring started to look human.
198
But while Faker's team was on the downward spiral, another player was on the rise.
199
Smeb, the top lane carry for Rocks Tigers 2016, took his game to another level.
200
And it led to this.
201
Coming in at number one on our list is Smeb from the Rocks Tigers.
202
You have to be pretty good to be above Faker on this list.
203
For the first time since his debut.
204
Faker was not ranked the number one player in the world heading into a major tournament.
205
So when the two faced each other in the semi -finals, this wasn't just to see who would go to the world finals,
206
it was to settle who was the best player in the world.
207
Faker beat out Smeb in multiple key categories in the series,
208
but it was his fancy feat in Game 5 that really ended the Faker vs. Smeb debate once and for all.
209
Baker would end the year winning a second world championship in a row, doing it without more on this time,
210
and he took on the world finals MVP.
211
2016 had the individual dominance and pierced invent of 2013
212
Baker, while being more well rounded as a player, which helped him secure both MVPs at both major international events,
213
which for me is enough to be ranked the second best version of Baker on this list.
214
but he's still not number one though and I'm just about to get to number one but first some honorable mentions.
215
First is 2019 Faker.
216
Faker was considered one of the best midlanders in the world
217
but at the same time he failed to win any international events or collect significant individual accolades.
218
He also had some negative peer sentiment even being accused of
219
choking for the first time in his career after his Keanu misplay at World.
220
Another worthy shout is 2023 Faker.
221
Faker actually did win the World Championship in 2023
222
and took on multiple individual accolades including the LCK Player and Midlander of the Year.
223
But I would argue he was lucky to win those awards as they weighed Faker's comeback from injury and eventual
224
Worlds win far too heavily compared to the rest of the year.
225
Whereas stats for the most part were worse than as 2024 or even 2025 seasons.
226
Of course, there's a few other choices like 2025 Faker, as I just mentioned, or 2022 Faker,
227
but most of these choices were lacking in one category or another compared to the names on this list.
228
But with that said, we can finally get to the best version of Faker.
229
The argument for the greatest team of all time usually revolves around
230
Season 4 Samsung White and Season 5 SKT.
231
And the reason
232
Season 5 SKT belongs in that conversation is largely because of Faker and you'll see why by the end of the segment.
233
Let's set the stage for the final time.
234
The OCK is facing massive changes, the Korean exodus results in most of the greatest players from Korea leaving for China
235
and the region is at its weakest it's been in history.
236
Meanwhile, Faker and SKT had just come off their worst season ever.
237
The team missed the world championship with people questioning if Faker's rookie season was just a flash in the pan.
238
So all the pressure was on Faker to perform for himself, for his team, and for his country.
239
And he did.
240
Faker dominated OGN on standard meta champions like Viktor to unique off -meta midlaners like Ezreal.
241
He even dropped a 25kDA on LeBlanc in one game.
242
Yikes.
243
He was the most active midlaner in the league, leading all mids in kill participation.
244
But somehow, Faker found himself on the bench.
245
Easyhoon was SKT's substitute, a player whose mastery of Azir, one of the most dominant champions in the meta,
246
was so undeniable that SKT started him over Faker for all three games of the Spring Finals.
247
So despite being incredible, the GOAT had to win his spot back.
248
Enter the MSI Finals.
249
SKT are down 2 -1.
250
After losing two straight games with Easyhoon, the team asks Faker to rescue them.
251
And he takes over on Kassadin, dropping a perfect 18kda.
252
And then in Game 5, he locks in LeBlanc.
253
He held a perfect 12 -0 record on the champion.
254
Most teams wouldn't even think of giving him the champion, but giving Faker LeBlanc was part of EDG's plan all along.
255
EDG lock in Morgana mid, a champion designed to neutralize the lane, much like the Malzahar pick we talked about earlier in the video.
256
Despite being countered, Faker was having a very impressive game on LeBlanc, being a part of any real successful play SK team made.
257
But ultimately, the trap worked.
258
Faker suffered as his first international best -of -five loss ever, EDG walkaway champions.
259
Despite the loss, Faker finished the tournament ranking first or second in almost every significant category among midliners.
260
To this day, many people argue that if Faker could have plagued the whole series, SKT might have been MSI champions instead.
261
But that's not what happened.
262
So if the burden on Faker's shoulders wasn't great already, now it doubles.
263
Now people are asking if Chyna had figured out Faker.
264
And what if Faker isn't good enough to beat Chyna and win Worlds again?
265
This all made Faker furious.
266
And what followed was the most focused stretch of Faker's career.
267
He dominated on Viktor, Ryze,
268
Ahri, Ezreal, even as Azir had gotten so good that Faker reduced Easyhoon to a benchwarmer for the rest of the season.
269
Faker had so much confidence in his individual skill at this time that he won two professional games on Master Yi mid,
270
and won a game on Riven mid in the Summer Finals.
271
Two champions that no other mid laner in the world would even think about playing, including the other versions of Faker on this list.
272
In the Summer Finals against Nagne, a solid Korean mid laner, Faker was up in CS at 15 minutes 100 % of the time,
273
finishing with 6 solo kills across only 3 games.
274
The gulf between Faker
275
and the next best mid laner in Korea was only ever this large during his rookie season
276
and even that's debatable
277
but now the moment the entire year had been building towards worlds can faker carry his team his region
278
and his country who better to test skt
279
and faker than edg the team that had beaten skt at msi the team
280
that had made people believe china might be the better region the team
281
that had handed faker his first international loss baker got his revenge on his signature Ryze.
282
Baker's 2015 Worlds performance was stuff of legend.
283
He averaged a 7 .3 KDA and plus 15 CS differential at Worlds 2015, which are better numbers than any
284
Worlds performance I've mentioned on this list so far.
285
Even in the World Finals, he could not be stopped.
286
He died one time between the team's three wins, ending the series with a monster performance on Ryze.
287
Just as a reminder, Ryze was supposed to be a midlaner that took a while to get strong, but you wouldn't think so watching Faker play.
288
For the recap, 2015 Faker won both splits to the LCK, won Worlds in the most dominant fashion maybe ever,
289
and was one game away from winning MSI 2.
290
In other words, he was arguably one bad coaching decision from winning every single tournament in the calendar year,
291
something no other version of Faker has come close to do.
292
2015 Faker has it all.
293
The stats?
294
Check.
295
The stakes in performance under immense pressure?
296
Check.
297
The accomplishments?
298
Check.
299
And in terms of pure sentiment, here's what Easy Hoon himself had to say about Faker.
300
In living closely with Faker, I've observed what an amazing player he is.
301
And I sincerely hope he can keep performing well
302
and continue filling his role for the progress of esports and League of Legends.
303
Because 2015 Faker was larger than just that year.
304
He saved the Korean scene, he saved League of Legends, and he helped catapult it into the greatest game in Eastward's history,
305
the true unkillable Demon King.

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
