TRUE , this series is a like a movie script. EVERY SINGLE PLAYER has their own anime arc and they prove every SINGLE ONE OF THEM is a god and not relying on anyone to carry them like Damwon , EDG
6:39 "Wow... Sanghyuk-hyung..." You can hear the awe in Guma's voice. It warms my heart man, these kind of things. Faker is dearly loved by most of us, but to hear such appreciation coming from his younger teammates just means so much.
Faker showing the younger gen what it was like back in the day, the Faker they grew up watching at worlds. now they get to sit next to him and experience Faker magic while on the rift with him. truly a legacy that will never be topped in league maybe even Esports but i might be wrong.
Hes getting older we can't deny that. Hes not as clean as he use to be, but that just makes people forget he can and will still do the most insane shit in a instant, and make it look easy.
@@drectanbns266 that Azir play in game 3 is probably a top 5 play even by fakers standards given its sheer importance for his worlds campaign and legacy - he was already the goat but that play shuts the door on all discussions - it got him back to finals 10 years after his first, got him revenge for his 2017 finals defeat at the hands of ruler, ended JDGs golden road - the player and only team that could have ever challenged his legacy with 2015 SKT as the most accomplished and dominant team for a brief moment we all had flashbacks to goat faker - when was the last time you saw a play flip a game like that in a worlds game of this caliber?
you can see the oner engage earlier in the game must have had similarly clean comms - faker goes in just as oner flashes, before he ever channels ult, the sand soldier appears - the way faker and oner layer their cc is not normal, not even for pro teams..it's so perfectly choreographed JDG thrives on messy team fights but there isn't anything messy in those cc chains
6:15 this play from Faker is amazing. Quick analysis: Faker says he's looking for an angle and will go in first. Oner tells him 7 seconds (which I assume is Ult cd). Faker engages roughly 10 seconds later knowing that Oner's ult is now up. Whats crazier is Faker is on vision the entire time, because of Ashe, and takes advantage of Ruler stepping up to use empowered Q. If Ruler doesn't step up near the tier 2 tower to hit Q, Faker would not have the space to make this play. Then E+Q, Flash R is beautiful, catching Ruler and ending the game. Amazing stuff.
might looklike a solo carry tf by Faker but Zeus was flanking JDG, who prevents Ruler to flash near his teammates. So Faker had a 100% prediction on Ruler Flash
6:22 its so insane that faker saw potential for that play that far away from the fight. He wasn't even near and was already calling out the incoming azir shuffle on ruler, like God damn bro. Oner immediately saying "I'll follow with ult" like a true bro, damn this team is amazing.
Ikr! he was defending bot tower when he made the call. It feels like he just glanced at mid and saw their position and it just came to him. damn amazing.
I remember back then when Faker disobeyed Daeny and commanded that they can end the game even if the opposing team is starting to respawn and he will take the blame if the rush didn't work. Goodness this man's game sense and decision making is impeccable.
Bro having Faker on your team is the equivalent of having Michael Jordan and Gregg Popovich on your team in 1 person. This guy makes the clutch plays and calls the shots. He's too OP.
faker not only making a hall of fame play, but then also shotcalling EXACTLY how long it will take them to close the game out, with who exactly will respawn... That is so off the charts insane I don't even really know what to say
There's a clip that shows that Faker is the one that tracking enemies R cooldowns accurately. That's why the team is much better when Faker's around, he tracking R and spells CD, looking at 5 characters at the same time while planning the macro, and still perform at top level while doing all of that
I bet he was playing Tetris in the background and 1v1 in Aram as well.😂 Jokes aside the man is a machine and he understands the game in such amazing detail.
The comms really show why faker is so important for the team. Guma and Oner were hesitant to end in game 3 but he knew they had time to do it and told them so

@@testbug01 keria also keeps an eye on spells and ults CD... There's a clip VS LNG that keria said aphelios flash is on CD but the exact moment it was usable, he said nevermind
@@testbug01its not just Faker, everyone on the team is superb at keeping track of things and understanding each other. Faker is great at making snap decisions to guide his teammates though so they play so smoothly together
my boi probably felt guilty in game 3, he made lots of crucial mistakes that resulted in that baron for JDG. Good thing Faker went God mode and saved the day with his Azir shuffle
it is amazing for Gumayusi to grow up under Faker's wing and it was a good choice for him to stay with T1 as a substitute in 2020 - he has a lot of Faker's calm demeanour in him how cold Faker is in this whole moment - game/series/worlds on the line - Faker just takes charge, telling Oner that HE will engage, shuts Oner down when he wants to say something more - the talking is done, just the goat looking for his moment and everyone waiting in anticipation of an engage quiet as a mouse - and then he just snaps and when no-one is sure about whether they can end, HE knows, HE knows that only Ashe will be back (that's some crazy accurate damage calculation on the turrets and ashe death timer btw), HE knows that 'we end for sure' - how much confidence must it give you to have a leader like that? jesus, u can just lean back and prepare mentally for next game
Just imagine this newer generation of T1 playing with Faker. They grew up watching him destroy the Korean region and the rest of the league. They were hustling day and night just to get picked by a team while Faker was already famous and feared in the league. Now they’re killing it with Faker. It is such a privilege to play with him and to be playing for T1! A team that has 3 world titles, a team that had Faker since the beginning! When they win worlds this year, I hope T1 gives Oner, Zeus, Guma and Keria another contract! They can win wolrds back to back or even a three-peat!!!
Oner and Faker contracts still continue, Guma promissed to re-sign if they win, Keria and Zeus are both prodigy, i think lots of teams will offer them such huge amount sums for their signature. but idk, let's hope they will stick together
@@noobchocolatos9036keria a prodigy no more..he's probably a veteran now...he is still.mechanically gifter...but it's been a while since his drx scene Zeus is a prodigy though..long road ahead
@@jisooturtlerabbitkim3734a Korean girl group who sang this year's world song 'Gods'. They will perform at finals and the two finalist teams can meet them.
The fight at the end of game 3 and that 1v2 from Guma will haunt Ruler for a long time. He got absolutely destroyed TWICE in this series. Faker read him like an open book as he went in, auto, dealt a lot of dmg, forcing Ruler to Flash, and he predicted that Flash, making Ruler his personal toy. Guma simply crushed Ruler in that 1v2 just like what he said. These moments are so devastating to one's mentality, especially those who have been dominating for the whole year.
@@toffen5454 Yep its sad but..Faker did to Ruler what Ruler did to him. Took away his dream. Faker for his fourth title, and Ruler for his Golden Road.
It was funny how guma 1v2 both known the best adc and top laner, and they crushed them both. Lol That zero with lulu buff can't do anything to varus and his sick flash dodge against aatrox and zeri so he won't be slowed. He also doesn't have ulti against them both which makes that an outplayed.
@@dejesusjosephmikhel3225I'm pretty sure Varus was slowed by Stridebreaker after he dodged 3. Imagine if he wasn't. Edit: Got to have a good look at that again. I think he was barely hit.
Zeus: The dutiful one, say nothing and finish the job Oner: The bloodlust one, thirst for the win Faker: The calculated one, being the reason of the team Guma: The cautious one, questioning every step for the team to be careful Keria: The hype one, optimist who help lift up team spirit
If you look at previous voice comms, Guma is actually the one who's the optimist and lifts up the team spirit the most. Saying things like, "Nice try, we can still win this" or "Don't worry, I can carry" whenever someone dies or misplay.
For me it is the best play from 2023 worlds. So much pressure on him being isolated and decide to flash engage over an arrow. You saw if it got hit by ashe, taliyah e was followed just behind, securing oner death. Overall t1 are consistent but oner and faker with their deciding engage are poping off.
he only needed to watch out for ashe ult animation in that play, i dunno if varus had ult but he was at the back...maybe the coms were just to watch out for ashe ult to oner...everyone knows he will be the one to engage jdg first then azir 2nd.
it is incredible how deep faker's knowledge and judging skills about this game are.. when everyone is debating whether they can end game 3 or not, faker just goes like, only ashe will be alive. like he knows it so damn well.
The incredible thing is that in game 3 when Faker goes in to ult Ruler, at the exact same time Azir says "TRUST IN ME" as I saw in another recording. That's just like a script for one true League GOAT :D
Insane! We have been waiting for this level from T1, where they are playing at high confidence level and calm demeanor! The championship is calling them
Fakers azir has been too clean this while tournament Man is indeed a living legend ❤ Best mid laner in the history of league of legends and on his way to becoming the goat once again 🎉🎉
Among the 5, Keria probably the most excited one to play in Grand Final again. I hope T1 wins, this is their last run and let them make it a memorable one by winning Worlds after a rough Summer
that last game with Keria's Bard pick is literally just a middle finger to JDG at that point. that meme portal at the dragon pit is literally just another tuesday for Bard mains 🤣🤣
Faker calling that he's actively looking for an angle to go in while the enemy are sieging with baron is a certified GOAT behavior. The extra flash range to predict Ruler would react to his play is just the icing on top. Bring the trophy home this time bois
I just noticed did not use bm emotes unlike jdg, even after outplays. They had no time for such antics, their focus is sharp and are really out for blood. They're hungry for that championship! And excited for NewJeans
If T1 does win Worlds this year, please keep this roster for another year! 🙏 Keria, Zeus, Guma, don't leave! Try for the Golden Road together! Fighting! Where else would you go? You already have the synergy together for so long and you can only get better! 💪
Gumayusi was asked by LCK last October to imagine himself winning Worlds 2023+Winning Promises: He draw the team ZOFGK hugging and wrote that they all "re-sign" while Celebrating with our team in happiness. He's a sweet guy. Let's win this year and hope all members extend and re-sign! Fighting!
Guma is always a solid rock, pure gigachad, but I have a feeling he will cry his eyes out if they win this year, given that "re-sign" and the fact most of the time he is that guy who steps up in a desperate moments, even when everyone's already kind of given up.
6:38 - Guma: "Woww Faker" Keria: "That was sick!" You just know these guys grew up watching Faker and he was inspiring to their LoL careers. Now they get to be on stage, and in game with him when he does it again. They couldn't even help to be impressed. FAKER 🐐🐐
its so funny how zeus is not talking at all haha, is like faker and keria makes the calls, oner and guma follow ups or confirms the intention and the zeus just does his job without talking haha
even if we cant end we have to end - oner the determination coming from my team this year, they are unstoppable T1 FIGHTING!@!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! T-T
So far T1 have taken down LPL #1,2 and 3 in Worlds and now they only have to defeat LPL #4. I started playing league in 2015 but didn't start watching pro-LoL until a couple years later, so I never got the chance to watch T1 win worlds but I believe I will finally get to watch it happen in 2023!
I donn't know if they were intentional but, Keria's game 4 Bard portal jebaits caught so many mistakes from JDG. On another note, as the casters mentioned during the livestream, Kanavi's probably not going to be able to live it down. And also there was one at dragon with Ruler but not too much came out of that.
@@kevinchan3668 The Kanavi one could've been most likely intentional but in the case of Ruler, it surely wasn't. It was his own mistake right clicking near the portal just to get the fruit lol
Not only in this Game but vs JDG Faker shows us, why he is the Best Player in the World and for all Time. Brilliant Play, Perfect engages. Its Beautiful to see these T1
Still guys, even im a vivid T1 fan, im still not going to believe until i see it, u know how heart broken we are about last year's finals, they shouldn't still let their guard down
I love how the other 4 got mesmerized from that Azir play in the mid even tho they know it was going to happen. These guys' chemistry is through the roof!!
Worlds is the most important goal for them. It doesn't matter if you win spring, msi, summer if you cannot win worlds you can't be called the best team in the world
Years ago, Faker’s azir wasn’t as dominating as what we are seeing today. Easyhoon’s was better but that didn’t stop the man from grinding it out with Azir. Now, we get to see such a world-class performance from him on this champ. T1 ftw!
faker: his macro calls are so on point he know if they can end and what to do next oner and keria: teamfighting calls and who to target guma: normal coms on his status and moral support zeus: stone cold gigachad lets his play do the talking xD
