What is it Like to VS Faker in Lane? 

He had his ups and downs, but to be consistenty perform at a score of at least 8/10 throughout 10 years is simply insane in esports

Imagine how difficult it is to lane against Faker. "Welcome to mid lane. You're up against someone who is commonly regarded as the greatest League player of all time. Good luck!"

This video reminds me of that 2015-17 period where RU-vid was just completely filled with Faker highlight reels, both soloQ and proplay. Really enjoyed it.

Faker also has mad clicking skills, he could play ranked and alt tab to play another game while shifting his vision throughout the map and scoreboard, simultaneously. How his brain multi-tasks and processes all of this in a split second is wild. He's also considered 'old' (approaching 30) in the esports world, but still pretty untouchable. The only other player who can come close to challenging Faker is pretty much Dopa.

I was expecting the counter list in the end of the video lol

dobby really said "how about some faker today?" 👁👄👁

The way he plays Akali is so flashy and impressive. He dodges skillshots and positions himself so well with those dashes.

Faker's laning isn't as dominant as it used to be, but man definitely still has it down to a science

The biggest enemy of a pro player is not age or injury, it is the patch. How many world championship winners have we seen over the last ten years that deteriorated after just one patch? Where are the likes of Doinb, zeka, rookie now? Only one player and one player alone stood the test of all the patches, stayed on top of them and competed at the highest level nonetheless. That player is Faker, people simply do not understand how great he is, how much better he is compared to the competition. People do not even the slightest idea.

The fact that LCK teams were scrimming vs T1 in preparation for the "LPL playoffs" feels like an anime protagonist training with his friends and rivals, teaching them all they know in preparation for the his final fight vs the "big bad" it's so anime I love it. I hope T1 wins JDG.

"What is it like to VS Faker in lane?" Me: Ah shit, I'm dead again.

At 8:20 he dodged the Diana ult with shuriken then finishes her off. Crazy clean

Given the result of the semifinals it clearly paid off. He is the GOAT

It's not just the mechanics that make Faker so good, but his overall knowledge of the game. I've seen many times on T1 comms videos him calling out the exact second someone's flash or ult will be back up and if they use it how long it's down for. Incredible stuff

This isn't surprising in the slightest. Even onetricks like PzZZang, Onzed, Azhy, etc have mentioned that going up against Faker in lane is stressful due to the full extent of how well he knows the game

I once watched a game between T1 and some streamers, the 2 most faqs from the streamers are 1: How do we gank Faker and 2: How is he not dead?

Man just win Semi finals 3-1. Best Team Ever.

"What is it like to vs Faker in Lane" *Ryuface*

Even without the names I can tell which one Faker is

Even though we have Chovu, Knight etc., for me Faker will always be the best. He is not that dominant but the way he leads his team is insane. Always GOAT.

He is him. League of Legends is his world and we are just living in it.

faker is not always dominating the lane because faker realize that he should not play as one but play as the team and he is the goat because even losing big titles he didn't give up and continue improving and I respect that even he got hated for losing big title he still playing with all his got

That first sylas clip is insane

Imagine playing vs the face of the game man won worlds 10 years ago and now is in a back to back final at worlds

Its like watching peak Nen fights in real life but in game. Very calculated and clean. LoL Pro Players are on another level

Thanks for the video!

The real goat is loldobby

the best player in the world. again. the GOAT. un. believeable.

all the people who are hating faker dont know anything. His gameplay is so solid, that it feels like magic. Every game he creates oppurtunities to win games. and that very consistent.

master on playing to the edge incredible

We can see that his reaction time was getting higher but still very strong

Here after the goat stomped JDG

You can see him doing the math at 3:58 and the exact moment he locks on in attack mode at 4:00. No hesitation whatsoever

No doubt the greatest of all time so far.

That sylas play was nasty

The GOAT

faker also did that shockwave dodge vs knight in game 4 jdg. i think it was during the dragon fight where he killed kanavi early. but by that point they've already won

Lesson learned: just don't lane against him 😅

He win today, I want to see the rise of the king again.

his training paid off

he will always be my hero 🤩🔥

Hello everyone. Hope you all are having a good night. 👍 🌟

ori's korean dialogue is so cute.

Thank you for explaining everything, I didn't understand shit while watching it.

the fact he can just think above like this is crazy like he knows if he QW R with ori not kill but make the enemy think he is weak now and force them to engage just to fall by his bait or ult by just make the enemy out of his lane just to win with xp lead and gold this is crazy

just casually sittin here with my jaw on the floor

🔥🔥🔥

Faker got his revenge from 2017 from ruler flashing ult him and now he do back to ruler

GOAT

Really enjoyed this vid, thank you.

can you make the same video but now about guma? 😁😁😁 sorry if my english is bad

His reflexes are god damn beyond human stats.

It should be illegal to be this good 😭😭😭

SOLIDIFIED GOAT

"How about some Faker today?" Lol

3:09 that's Gryffinn I think lol

counters: carpal tunnel

JDG Knight : 👁👄👁

10 years later, both Iron and Challenger players STILL say "I'm faker" when they do a good play.

he finally beat JDG

Since my premade 5 ranges from iron to diamond I've seen tons of similar scenes and I know them all to well. But imagine being in the top 30-50 in the world and someone toys with you as if it was some plat vs iron lane XD

My baits would be unparalleled too if only my jungler decided to come to my lane

😱😱😱😱😱

can you make a spotify playlist?

Tbh my ego said I could maybe beat faker with my best champ 1v1, but after seeing the Talon fight lvl 2 I got humbled.

Still the goat

4:40 i sincerely dont know what to do in This situation if i were Syndra.

No doubt the guy is a genius but its fair to say that you need an excellent jungler watching your back too

It’s like you are playing against a four times world champion.

game is running sooooo smooth on theses pings its unbelievable compared to my 45ms who jump to 55ms 65ms 75ms every 5 secs and never his stable even the health of the minions drop so slowly its unreal

Demon King

this glaze

Mister yeet

POV you go up against unkillable falcon thing and you are a lane minion identifying as a champion

god

I was waiting for the "Counter: None" at the end... Come on!

JDG lost cause Knight didnt watch this video gg JDG

I hope he is still practicing hard for WBG finals.

at 3:06 he literally tanked some of renekton empowered w dmg with his shield. I guess it's because yone w has a slight delay

4:35 that is not w max, that is 3 levels w into maxing q

that 0:40 play was mind boggling

The scary part is that he is playing under wrist injury. Imagine that he could have been performing even better.

Jesus... he dodged that scatter the weak BLIND

"How about some Faker today?"

Bro as a DOTA player my hands are itching to deny creeps out of habit watching LOL laning phase

Is Faker really good, or are his opponents just really bad?

Day 24 asking u to talk about sierras (best yi in the world)

This player might not be the absolute best mid-laner anymore, but he is definitely the best performer when it really matters.

Surgical

orianna ulted twice?? the first ori video

At 3:50 you use the word snuff, I’ve only ever heard this term used in porn 😂 Dobby English strong

IT PAID OFFFFFF IT PAID OFFFFFFF LETS GOOOOO WOOHOOOOOOO

4:00 Faaaaker❤😊

So mostly he is using mind game to win lane. Taking advantage from every single moment in laning phase

yeah idk why that ori dived right in the beginning, is faker playing in bronze?

Faker deserves worlds penta!

Legenda!

Seize top 1 Is already a hard task,but keep it for 10 years is another story

Dobby, do you know why your replays shows 9999 all the time, I know it is when an element like jayce portal is destroyed it takes 9999 damages, but why does it show ?

6:20 hollon did he say bomboclat?
