Introduction: The S15 season is now over, and the majority of players have likely been paying attention to the recent offseason. Faker, as a highly recognized elite pro player, has been extremely active lately, basically nonstop, moving between different areas. Recently, footage of his arrival in Chengdu surfaced, proving why he is widely regarded as the number one player in League of Legends; his popularity is undeniable. The scene was packed with fans all chanting 'Brother Li.' Meanwhile, netizens compiled statistics on Faker’s career win rates across 90 champions, revealing one champion played nearly 200 times with a 70% win rate, while nine champions remain winless.

Faker's arrival scene in Chengdu exposed

Most players are quite familiar with Faker. As the undisputed number one in League of Legends, his career has been spectacular. He won the World Championship right from his debut and gradually became the officially recognized "Demon King" over the years. Many expected him to fade from the spotlight with age, but surprisingly, his performance has only become more consistent and outstanding. He reached the World Championship finals for four consecutive years and won the title three years in a row, earning the well-deserved title of six-time world champion. No other professional player has surpassed his honors.

During this offseason, Faker has been extremely busy. To maximize his value, the organizers arranged numerous events, sending him back and forth across major regions worldwide. So far, it seems he hasn’t visited the Americas region. Recently, footage of Faker arriving in Chengdu was revealed. In just a month and a half, fan enthusiasm was already at its peak, with crowds cheering 'Brother Li' even before he came out of the arrival gate. Accompanied by multiple security guards, he safely got into the car. It feels like no other LPL player, including Uzi and TheShy, has this level of popularity. Faker might be the only pro player in League of Legends without any scandals.

No wonder Faker’s tickets sell out in seconds. Even at a steep price of 7000 yuan each, tickets are extremely hard to get. It seems the organizers underestimated the purchasing power of LPL fans. Recently, netizens also compiled statistics on Faker’s career champion win rates. As expected from the "King of Champions," he has played a total of 90 champions in his career. The highest win rate belongs to Azir, played 199 times with 141 wins and 58 losses, a 70.85% win rate. The second is Orianna, played over 100 times with a win rate above 70%. Third is Ryze, fourth is Corki, and fifth is Ahri, all with overall win rates exceeding 60%. The somewhat awkward case is Galio, ranked sixth with about a 60% win rate, yet Faker has never had a signature skin for him throughout his long career.

Less frequently used champions include Lillia, Olaf, Poppy, and Aatrox. Faker has even played mid-lane Darius before. With 90 champions played in total, no other pro player can match him. Surprisingly, Faker has only used Malzahar in four matches, which means his proficiency with this champion in previous world tournaments against us might not have been very high, yet he still performed impressively. Of course, Faker also has nine champions with zero wins in his hands.

Goodbye thoughts

It’s unexpected that Faker’s airport arrival would be this sensational. This must be the charm of the number one player in League of Legends. For LPL fans, every pro player has some flaws to criticize, whether world champions or top stars. But with Faker, no stains can be found. In fact, to maintain his hand speed, Faker hasn’t even let news of a girlfriend leak out for many years.

What do all of you think about this matter?
