The Player That Saved League of Legends 

ty for vid

'Toplane is like and island. But Hanlabong was used to being on an island' never misses

"Man, this would have been so much cooler if i said this after winning worlds my bad". got me holding back tears man😭😭

Not only was this documentary so good, but 2 years later, Khan comes back from the military service and helps coach the Korean team at the Asian Games 2023 to victory, and is recognized by Zeus during his recognition as MVP. Truly an unsung hero of League's careers.

That ending literally had me fucking crying... Khan made the absolute best of the situation and ended up leaving us with one of the best examples of someone handling a bad situation with an unmatched level of kindness, maturity, and humility. Absolutely built different.

Beautiful player, beautiful documentary.

Easily one of the greatest League of Legends Esports documentaries that exist and ever will exist. The research, the story telling, and connection to the grand scheme of what is Khan and League of Legends. Thank you for this.

This has to be one of the top five sports documentaries of all time. Wonderfully written.

"It took a mountain of men to bring him down and he wouldn't go down" is almost as cold of a line as Khan himself is

The most beautiful part about this was the ending, Khan wasn’t distraught or in dismay. He smiled, thanked his fans for their support, and left one bright moment for everyone who cared for him to end his professional career

Holy shit that ending hit like a truck, legit started crying. What an incredible force of positivity, a true inspiration.

Man, never thought I would cry over a League of Legends video neither one about esports, that I don't watch. This really is one of the best league videos, for me this is a movie, even better than some out there. Starting off with a perfect intro, giving some information, praising Khan and then ending with something poetic so that people would want to know the rest, like can we just take a moment to appreciate the editing, his calm voice and the selection of songs too, like it really adds up perfectly, I was literally reaching for air as the history goes. Also from what happened to him when he moved to China, all the teams he passed through, to his impact on the game in general, he really deserved to win worlds. It all started to get me here 50:00 the fact that he choose over all champions on league the one that started it all for his last game it's truly poetic. 52:49 the way you can see him leaving and the other team going to get the trophie really feels like a bullet to the heart. 53:12 The evil editing got me, I was truly shocked and couldn't believe it, but something about their voices and posture just felt off. And that Instagram post was my ending, even in a moment that was really hard for him he kept with a smile on his face and thought about everyone, told everyone to take care of his brothers and even tried to make the last interview a happy moment. Khan really is a rare person, he is someone worth of giving all the love and affection. 55:36 Something about your voice, the videos and pictures at this part feels really sad but inspiring and heartwarming, actually the entirety of this video feels like this but just get stronger. "Make your hometown proud" :( Sorry for the big text and my poor English but Khan's story combined with your amazing editing and calming voice touched my heart. Thanks for the incredible video Gbay99 you just got a new fan. I watched it twice btw. And if for some reason Khan reads this I just want to tell you that eventhough and unfortunately you couldn't win Worlds you won everyone's heart and respect... and lastly I wish you happiness

This was beautiful to watch. You did Khan so much justice, and I'm glad people can really see the kind and talented guy he is. Video editing, pacing, storytelling and music is 10/10, really delivering on tense moments and building up the narrative properly. Thank you so much for this.

Gbay you monster, this video was a 50 minute build up to making me cry like a baby.

That end with the press conference had me crying, Khan, you absolute Giga-Chad, shine on you crazy diamond!

I don’t even play League of Legends and Khan’ journey brought tears to my eyes

Thank you Gbay. It feels like a lifetime ago when I was a kid first learning league, binging your how to and art of league videos. Seeing this masterpiece of a documentary brought tears to my eyes and reminded me of countless memories from my own league journey. Kudos to you for doing what you love and inspiring others!

Gbay, this is the best league video I've ever watched. Really outdone yourself.

I hope you guys enjoyed the documentary and are looking forward to more. If you'd like to see every video before it's live on RU-vid, you can do so by pledging $1 to my Patreon. If possible, I'd love to stop taking sponsorships and just run everything from community support. patreon.com/gbay99

It speaks volumes about Khan that the last thing he wanted was for his teammates to just have a good laugh. This kind of guy is rare to find. I am so glad one of those picked LOL and decided to make the game ten times better.

Thank you Gbay99 for this art. Didn't think I'd be wiping tears when I first clicked this video.

As someone who never really bought much into the hype around Khan and always just saw him as a solid toplaner amongst other Korean talents, this video really helped in giving a new perspective, and an insight to the person behind the player. His journey truly seemed inspirational, and you did great in capturing that in this video. Thank you.

52:55 insane shot capturing a metaphorical changing of the guard. We see Khan step out of the camera right as EDG walks in. Really cool moment.

I'm from Brazil and I have to say: this video is a FKING masterpiece. Especially for those who has playing the game since 2012-2013. Thank you for making this piece of art!

This is extremely well made! You somehow made me sit for an hour and get emotionally invested in the story of someone I've never heard of in much less time than a documentary with a much higher budget. Top Diff, Khan... Top Diff.

I have been waiting for the Khan documentary from GBay for the longest time (I was waiting for a video akin to "The 1.5th best player" to pop in my feed). As a DK fan, but an even bigger Khan fan, it still stings thinking back to 2021. The post game interview still brings me to tears. Thanks for doing the GOAT (in my eyes) justice GBay.

Undoubtedly the best Documentary for League I've seen Gbay. Khan deserved that recognition, he did all top laners proud and changed League for himself. Amazingly done for him.

Beautifully edited and so well narrated I felt like I just watched a NETFLIX documentary. You made love even more this frustrating/awesome game. I wish the best for Khan in the military and for you my man!

I come back to watch this every few months, and each time, it keeps me engaged from beginning to end. Amazing story telling, music, and pacing for an absolute chad of a player. Thank you for the video, deserves much more attention for sure.

Tears in my eyeys at that Instagram post from Korean Hanlabong after worlds finals. He is not just a great player but also a great person, so lovely and genuine. He couldnt quite managed to win the whole thing, but noone ever had his constancy, this is why I rate him as the best toplaner in the game ever.

How kindhearted, thoughtfull and observant one must be to think up and make such a tribute. This was a masterpiece of a gesture. I hope Khan sees this and I'm glad I did too ❤️

This is so insanely well made, thank you for this masterpiece and for honoring one of the most memorable pros of league of legends

Oh boy almost an hour just flew by. I was so invested in this documentary what an amazing video. Khan will always be my favorite top laner, I first knew about him when he was in SKT and this made me respect him more!

Something about watching Gbay's Esports documentaries reignites my desire to want to tryhard league again lol.

Gbay really is such a sleeped on RU-vidr, your passion for the game and the community is intoxicating and your videos are always of such a great quality, I can't imagine how much work you put into making such a long and great video, from the research to the script writing to editing. Thank you so much for your work and I wish you all the best man!

I can't WAIT to see your rewind for DRX. This will be the the most epic journey ever, and the expectations are skyhigh but you're the ONLY person worthy of even trying to capture and retell it.

I did not even realize that I'm watching a nearly 1 hour long video. Time passed so fast watching this video that it felt like I'm just scrolling on Facebook or TikTok. The editing is amazingly well made, the pacing of the story is smooth and well done, everything is perfect down to its last minute details. Thankyou for making this video. I hope that Khan will watch this❤️

53:16 I thought its gonna be a heartbreaking that his teammates drop him off. What a happy twist and truly eye-opening. Good doc

I stopped following and playing much league for around 4 years before 2021 so I went into this not knowing of any of the LPL, LCK, MSI or worlds results and not really knowing much about khan's story. This doc was so perfectly crafted. The narration, the music, the editing, the story telling. Not knowing what happened made it so that I actually thought maybe he actually wins in the end. I was so emotional the last 10 minutes and then just started crying at the press conference part and khan's message. Thank you for making this video. It reminded of why I've loved league for so long and why I always come back to it. I might have to go back and catch up on those years I missed.

This doc was so beautifully written and edited, it made me appreciate khan more so than ever😢 thank you for this

I haven’t played LoL in around 4-5 years.. Yet i keep watchiing your incredible videos. This one was such an inspiration! Thank you!

not to discount the outer masterpieces you've put out but this puts those to shame this is the best league documentary I've ever watched

I gotta say, as seemingly the only League of Legends documentarian in the game, I'm so appreciative of the effort you keep putting into these videos. LoL has so many stories that deserve to be told, to be remembered; I'm just really glad this community has someone able to step up and do them justice. another banger 10/10 i cried

I haven't played League of Legends in over 5 years and for some reason I watched this today - what a treat. This video nearly brings me to tears when I see how positive Khan was in a time when life was trying to kick him down. It makes me want to choose joy. Thank you for an amazing video.

Lol why am I crying this was so good. A truly inspiring story beginning to end. Made me laugh, be anxious, sad, hyped, and happy in the end. Gotta say you make some amazing content

For us more OG players who didn’t play long enough to know khan, thank you for showing this with pretty much no spoilers. Instead of finding out he was a champion and clicking away, It kept me engaged, and emotionally invested in his journey with the hopes of his success along the way.

The fact that this video has me crying like a movie with a roller coaster of emotions… I can’t express enough how amazing this video is. I am proud to say this is the first video that I have see. From your channel. The first introduction to your channel is like a positive nuke. I wish you the best💛💛

One of the best documentaries on youtube thank you so much. I keep watching this once a year it's so good

what an excellent docu, had me almost crying at the end. Khan is a legend

Every day with a gbay documentary is a good day, once again, straight amazing piece of work, thx gbay!

I've never been so emotional watching a league video, thanks for the memories gbay you got me there ❤️

I don't remember when exactly I became a fan of Khan, but I do remember rooting for him every time I saw him on stage. It's a shame he didn't take home an international title, but I think a title pales in comparison to the respect he earned from the community.

This is such a good video, as someone who doesn’t play league anymore this is still a life lesson that goes to many people. What Khan showed us was purity.

This is the closest I've come to crying in months, beautifully made documentary with an utterly tragic ending. Thank you for sharing His story Gbay99. Good luck Khan, we'll miss you.

Man this documentary nearly brought me to tears. So well done. Incredible job.

Awesome video man, seriously, and what a story, thanks for this, the thing I liked the most is that beyond lol skills Khan has such a good character that spreads so much positivity, he even saves you from feeling bad for him for not winning his last world finals because he just accepted it and moved on. A true champion, not only in lol but also in life.

DAMN THIS WAS A BANGER GBAY, you got me so goddamn emotional by the end, thank you man.

Man, Gbay you still keep pumping out bangers after all these years. Props to you.

Dude... this video had me in tears. I love Khan, I loved the message, and I appreciate you for making the video. Keep up the good work.

I truly enjoyed this whole video. Thank you for all the time and research you did for this.

Crazy how the best written and most interesting documentaries about things I didn't think I'd care about or get emotional about, have been the ones made on RU-vid. This one and the Hungrybox one "there will Never Ever be another Melee player like Hungrybox" Have been one of the best watches of my life. Thank you for this. Its wonderful.

Currently crying my eyes out at this. Easily the best video to date. Thank you so much, for creating such a beautiful documentary.

I unironically cried towards the end. This was a masterpiece, and amazingly well presented. Thank you, Gbay. Khan deserved this, and I don't think anyone could have done it better than you.

hey, thank you, this video I count as my favourite video of all time. The editing, the storytelling, Gbay, thank you for being able to produce such a documentary.

Amazing video dude! Keeping a video like this interesting for 57min is so difficult and it's clear to see how much time and effort you put into the editing to keep us engaged. Props

What a beautiful story and you really portrayed it in such a captivating way! Your ability to find these amazing stories in E-sport that I never knew about is just so good. Thank you for this

Hey Gbay, thanks for such a great documentary! Really well written, produced and narrated. I think more people should watch your other ones too. All the best 😀

What a legit doc! You've come a long way Gbay and thank you SO MUCH FOR THIS AWESOEME NOSTALGIC JOURNEY!!!

I enjoyed this a lot. I got the chills during the end portion. Thanks for a great video

Absolute banger of a documentary, had a tear in my eye at the end. Incredible, thank you.

GBAY, Thank you for always delivering these tearjerking emotional documentaries. You inspire so many with these videos, once again thank you!

The Best tribute i have seen so far for Khan. Thank you so much. Khan was trailblazer.

I love those moments where we see Khan just genuinely having fun. He was just happy to be there and play the game. I'm glad he was able to show us what we may have forgotten which was just to have fun. He may not have won a World's title, but has definitely won the hearts of many people around the world.

When I see people making such great efforts to try and create their way of telling a story, it really does make me feel like respecting their work. Thank you for existing

Man, I cried like a baby and I didn't cry in years... I just love that guy way too much, he is so fun and entertaining...

Gbay99 this is the first video ive seen by you and it is a work of art you kept me informed and highly engaged for a solid hour in a world where im constantly jumping from 1 minute to 1 minute video...thanks for making something great

This was an amazing documentary. It has filled in so many missing pieces of league history for me as I started playing in 2017 and although I followed the esports scene, my main focus was EU and NA. When G2 dominated in 2019 I was so happy for them. It is great to get some of the other side of all these stories and to see just how special Khan was. Great work.

This was definitely worth the long wait. Beautifully done and emotionally connected. I could feel the highs and lows and the connection you built to the player was powerful. Kudos to you, and kudos to Khan for his excellent career and mentality.

Gbay man, this is truly a masterpiece. I,ve been following you since 2016 (i think) and every video you amaze me even more ,to a point that I'm not sure if you can get better. Its true, you are so so talented... And then you post this piece of art... Stunning, filled with amazing story telling, great arc in the naration, perfectly edited and spot on soundtrack. Un-freaking-beleivable... I was invested in this doc without even knowing Khan or what he had done and at the end, i had shivers when he lost. You truly are one of the great documentarist in this world (no, not the youtube world. in the whole world). Thank you for all you are doing! You are amazing

Legit documentary level video here. Being around since the beginning i remember these moments but never noticed Khan as being centered in it, it brought a tear to my eye hearing the story and realizing who the player that created the new age on play we see today was.

So GBay for real the Documentary almost made me cry i litteraly teared up you did an amazing job with it.

my favourite player by a long shot, for a ling time. it's so pleasurable to see such a well-put, nicely crafted documentary about him. thank you for this. and thanks to khan, the man who reshaped league as a whole.

Another phenomenal story you told Gbay. It was hard to not get chills, especially at the end. Thank you for all the work you put into these docs.

Excellent, relatable, and astoundingly told. I didn't know much of the story of Khan so didn't know if he ever got to win worlds or not until this video. You had me hoping and wishing and laughing and pouting for a person I've never known. Great effort put in here and magnificently made.

Such a great, emotional and well constructed documentary. Holding back tears. I wish Khan is doing good and will keep making everyone positive around him.

I already want to rewatch this. Beautiful work with a beautiful, yet bittersweet, story.

Gbay never misses man you told this story beautifully. Thank you for all the hard work you do, this video grabbed my attention and didn't let go

Absolutely incredible video, thank you for such in depth and and well thought out commentary. In a world where content creators shell out so much volume it’s refreshing to delve into something this high quality. Bravo Gbay, inspiring stuff.

The script and flow of your documentaries keeps getting smoother and crisper with every video +1 Like

Really outstanding piece of work about such an important and inspiring player. You really did Khan justice here and did it with poise, polish and playfulness. I truly appreciate the time and effort you put into this!

this was incredible Gbay really, literally in tears. You have an amazing talent

Man, the credits somehow made this even better. Thanks for telling the story so well, it was put together insanely well.

Amazing stuff Gbay Im happy to see your content going after 8+ years of following you. ❤

THIS VIDEO IS INSANE, well made truly amazing.

Unbelievably well made. Be proud, brought tears to my eyes.

I started tearing up at his IG post. Thank you for such an amazing documentary.

One of my fav channels with Exil. The love for this game is palpable. Thanks for taking the time. Subbed

If Faker is the player who deserves the most trophies, Khan is the player who deserves the most respect. Him apologizing for his mistake with a true heart and shaving his hair as a sign of apologies really should earn our respect. Not many people can do that.

This is one of the best sports documentaries I have ever seen. It felt so emotional for Khan by the end. I wish I had known this story when it was actually happening. Gbay, you are one of the best storyteller’s we have in the scene. I dont know if it’s a goal of yours, but it baffles me that you aren’t hired by someone (riot or some other third party media) to make this type of content around players regularly. Loved the documentary and I can’t wait to see what you do next!

Thanks for this Gbay - wonderful story and very well told.
