Lee "Faker" Sang-Hyeok has started to stream on Twitch. This is not a drill.

The best player in League of Legends has made his way to the popular streaming platform with incredible numbers, and a few minor streaming setbacks.

The news comes as the whole SKTelecom T1 squad moves on to twitch.tv after leaving behind their Azubu obligations.

Minutes after the Azubu news surfaced, SKT's entire lineup except for Faker started streaming on Twitch. Even coach Kim "kkOma" Jung-gyun jumped in, which led to a few humorous highlights.

That all changed today at just before noon KST, when Faker finally joined his teammates in embracing the Kappas and PogChamps.

At its peak, Twitch said that Faker "set a record today for the most concurrent viewers on an individual streamer's channel with 245,100 concurrent viewers." The stream also took up two-thirds of the total viewership of League of Legends on Twitch and dwarfed the numbers of Michael "imaqtpie" Santana and Kurtis "Toyz" Lau who were also live at the same time. But it wasn't all high points and records for his Twitch debut.

The stream started late and was riddled with technical difficulties for the first hour. To compound that bad luck, he also lost his debut game on stream playing one of his signature champions, Ryze.

Maybe it's because he didn't use his own skin, didn't warm up properly, or he didn't have enough broccoli and tuna before streaming.
