"Faker is widely regarded as the greatest League of Legends player in history"
editthis claim is not cited and not true 216.164.249.213 (talk) 06:34, 30 July 2024 (UTC)
- While this is a more opinionated claim compared to other, I feel it's valid. When you look up popular league of legends players Faker is nearly always mentioned. (see https://www.redbull.com/us-en/best-league-of-legends-players-of-all-time or https://old.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/17tvaem/best_player_currently/) It's difficult to find an academic source for his popularity, however as we just need to gauge public opinion, I feel that using data from public forums like reddit or blogs is more acceptable.
- Moreover while his team has won multiple tournaments and lauded Faker as a major reason why, I feel that this is reason enough to leave the text as is. Wronglyindited (talk) 05:05, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
Breakdown at recent event worth mentioning in brief?
editFollowing a recent defeat to Gen.G in the LSK 2024 summer tournament, Faker experienced a distressing breakdown, repeatedly slamming his head against a wall with such intensity that his teammates had to intervene and restrain him. While details surrounding the incident remain scarce, attributed primarily to stress, I believe it’s important to update the page to reflect this significant moment.
