The League of Legends World Championships 2015 is over and we have got ourselves a champion in SKT T1. Though for many it was an expected result but that in any way doesn’t mean that SKT T1’s journey to be the world champion was an easy one. Each and every team at LoL Worlds 2015 gave it their best to beat their opponents and for every team there was a key player who went the extra mile to take his team a step further. Today, we are giving our respect to those key players in the top teams at the world championships. Lo and behold 10 of the best players at LoL Worlds 2015.



Deft



The ADC for Edward Gaming Deft might be a little disappointed with his team’s run at the World Championship 2015. With Deft, Edward Gaming was able to take down even the best of the best in League of Legends. Post World Championships 2015, Deft led his team to victory in many seasonal tournaments and lastly defeating iG with which they got a seed for the Worlds. His plays at the quarter finals against Fnatic were not up to mark but this however can also be due to the counter picks from Fnatic’s side to isolate Deft from the start. All in all, Deft performed well at Worlds 2015 and therefore deserves to be on the list.



Nagne



Nagne’s team KT Rolster lost to the potential finalist at LoL Worlds 2015, KOO Tigers. Atleast, we can give him a shout out for losing to the second best team at the biggest tournament of the year. During the group stages Nagne had an outstanding performance being the top seeded team only losing to Origen once. Nagne in almost every match was able to perform exceptionally well even in situations where his team was not at the best of form. Nagne’s run ended when his team met KOO Tigers in the playoffs; and while they lost with a 3-1 score line, the one game that his team managed to take was also due to extra ordinary efforts by Nagne’s LeBlanc in game one. He wasn’t able to give the same performance in the second match and ultimately became one of the reasons KT Rolster started being rolled over by their fellow opponents KOO Tigers.



Niels



The ADC for Origen, Niels had huge responsibilities on his shoulders when it came to the performance of the team at World Championships 2015. A team that not even an year old was up against some of the most fearsome ones in League of Legends. Niels in all his power took led his team to a position where they should be quite satisfied with their performance. Origen was put in the same pool with KT Rolster and old schoolers in LGD and TSM. Through the performance that Niels was able to give Origen got a 4-2 score line in the group stage being the second team to qualify for the playoffs with KT Rolster.



xPeke



xPeke is the most prominent guy from Origen and probably the main reason why Origen got to the place where it is today. Xpeke last year created a team all by himself and has managed to put this newly formed team on the same position where his former team Fnatic is. Both Origen and Fnatic were semi finalists at the Worlds 2015 and this was all due to why xPeke had done for his team. With xPeke, Origen has become the first European team ever to win a BO5 at the Worlds. Being the semi finalist for the tournament and falling to the potential winners of the event SKT T1, Origen has won the hearts of many even after losing and all of this wouldn’t have been possible without the efforts that xPeke puts for his team.



Pray



KOO Tigers ADC, Pray has been an idol for many. Coming in Worlds 2015 Pray’s signature hero was Ashe on which he achieved a 71% win record. Losing twice only to Flash Wolves in the group stage KOO Tigers looked really solid entering the playoffs. Pray eventually managed to take his revenge on KT Rolster from the Korean Championships and his team defeated KT Rolster with a 3-1 score line. During the second stage of the playoffs, KOO Tigers met Fnatic who looked very threatening but were no match as KOO Tigers clean sweeped the European squad with a 3-0 score. Pray’s final test was at the grand finals for Worlds 2015 where his team was up against the eventual winners SKT T1. Pray’s signature champion for the tournament was able to shine even in front of SKT T1 as KOO Tigers won Game 3 in the BO5 final.



Kuro



What has been said about Pray should also be said about the efforts of Kuro for KOO Tigers. The team’s mid laner, Kuro has shown why he is known as one of the best. During the World Championships 2015, Kuro out performed almost anyone whom he was up against. During the group stages, the spectacular run of KOO Tigers was a lot due to Kuro’s outstanding performance in the mid laner that allowed his team to out run others. During the playoffs, KOO Tigers showed the world why Kuro is one of the best Viktor players in the world as they stomped KT Rolsters during the quarterfinals and fnatic in the semis. The one game that KOO Tigers won against SKT T1 in the finals was also greatly due to his plays on Kassadin with 10-3-10 final score in Game 3



Pawn



The Edward Gaming star did all in his capabilities to take his team to great heights. At LoL Worlds 2015 Pawn lead his team to 4 victories out of 6 in the group stages losing only to the winners SKT T1. During his team’s run at the event, Pawn destroyed the likes of H2K and Bangkok Titans not losing any single game against the said teams. After managing to qualify for the playoffs, Pawn’s team fell short against Fnatic losing to them in the quarter finals with a score 3-0. Though Edward Gaming did not perform as well as expected, it was certainly not due to the performance of Pawn. Even in the quarter finals, Pawn did all in his power to bring back Edward Gaming into the match. However, being a team game even Pawn’s inhuman efforts weren’t enough and his team lost to Fnatic with a 3-0 score.



Rekkles



The Swedish star ADC in Fnatic, Rekkles was mind blowing at Worlds 2015. With Rekkles, Fnatic topped the group stages and advanced to the playoffs where they met EDG in the quarter finals. Rekkles’s plays on JinX swooped EDG from the playoffs and Fnatic entered the second stage with great hopes. This is where Fnatic’s fate came to an end when they faced up against KOO Tigers. In the semi finals however, Rekkles could not perform to his maximum as his farm was greatly denied by KOO Tigers and Fnatic eventually lost 3-0. Rekkles run at Worlds 2015 ended at the semi finals but to some extent he should be happy with his efforts that led his team to be an overall 2nd place in 2015.



Febiven



To many, Febiven was the main reason why Fnatic ease passed Edward Gaming in the quarter finals due to his plays. Special emphasis should be given to Game 2 of the series where Febiven didn’t die even once and secured a score line of 9-0 at the end of the match. Febiven also proved to be an unbeatable entity on Viktor which Febiven had a 100% win rate on. Febiven somehow gave the same performance in the semi finals against KOO Tigers. The teams run however, ended in the semifinals but even in his defeat Febiven showed the world why he is one of the best mid laners in the world.



Faker



Well, there is not much to say about Faker but at the same time you can write books on what devastation Faker has brought to the world of League of Legends. World Championships 2015 was taken by the expected team and this was mainly due to the expected inhuman plays from Faker. You all know why he is number one and Faker does not miss an opportunity to prove his might against enemy mid laners. Faker is the undisputed mid laner in League of Legends and probably this is way no one at Worlds 2015 could stand up against the power of Faker. Coming into the World Championships 2015, SKT T1 defeated each and every team they were up against and went 6-0 in the group stages gathering the maximum 18 points. In the playoffs, Fakers plays were outstanding. During the semi finals SKT T1 thought to give Faker some rest. And when he came in Game 3, it was literally a stomp as with Faker, SKT T1 sealed the deal 25 minutes into the game with Faker’s score 6-1-7 on Ryze. The finals were also a similar show for Faker who in the final game of the series went 9-0-4 and took the title as well as his share in the whooping prize pool of One Million Dollars.
