League of Legends is breaking viewership records 13 years after the game was released and Riot Games have the immense popularity of T1 and Faker to thank for.
Despite the gap between Eastern and Western teams being bigger than the Great Wall of China, the game's esports scene retains massive popularity with 6,402,760 concurrent viewer peak in the finals between Weibo Gaming and T1.
Keep in mind that the rest of the article is going to contain spoilers about the results of the finale so read at your own discretion.
On November 19, 2023, WBG and T1 squared off in the Worlds 2023 finals in a battle resembling the one between David and Goliath. Unfortunately for David, no slingshots were in sight which resulted in a hasty clean sweep finals showing as T1 took another trophy home.
With four World Championship titles under their belt, T1 are the undisputed best team in the history of League of Legends and the man who has been at their helm, Faker, is easily the GOAT of the esport.
He also became the oldest player to win League of Legends Worlds, at 27, although there are absolutely no signs of him slowing down. In fact, he tortured WBG throughout the series and put up an Akali master class in the last game where the LPL team just couldn't find an answer to the unstoppable mid-laner.
Overall, T1 looked clean throughout the tournament, dropping only two matches in total while winning 12, setting them up for an 83.33 per cent win rate in a clash with the best teams in the world.
