Best LoL Players of All Time

Since October 2009, League of Legends has captivated millions of players. The best of them compete regularly in competitions. These are “in our opinion” the 7 best LoL players of all time plus some highlighted teams. The list includes some of the most veteran players of the game so don’t be surprised if you recognize some names.

Lee “Faker” Sang-hyeok

In the League of Legends, competitive scene experts agree that Faker is the best player ever. The South Korean from SK Telecom T1 has been a professional player since March 2013 and took the competitive scene by storm. During this time, the 21-year-old has won the World Cup three times (in four appearances), the most important tournament of the year, and is the only player in LoL who has hit $ 1 million in prize money. In addition, the Mid-Laner has six regional titles in the highest Korean league and various other successes in the account. Faker stands for magnanimous capabilities and impresses even years after his debut by consistently strong performances. The scene will continue to talk about the superstar long after his retirement.

Søren “Bjergsen” Bjerg

According to many experts, Bjergsen is the best Western player in League of Legends. The Dane entered the professional scene with a lot of hype in 2013 but had to wait a bit for his first LCS assignment, as he was too young to comply with regulations.

The Mid-Laner quickly revealed why he had a great future, and Team SoloMid signed on to the then-17-year-old in November 2013. With the most successful North American LoL organization, he has since won 5 NA LCS titles and always reached the finals.

Although there is a lack of international success, hardly anyone doubts that Bjergsen has what it takes to play in the Korean league. His consistent performance in the game and his exemplary demeanor outside of Summoner’s Rift make him one of the best players ever.

Kim “PraY” Jong-in

PraY earned the title of World’s Best AD Carry in the past three years. The South Korean belongs to the old guard of the strongest LoL region and already celebrated his first major title in the winter of 2012/2013: OGN LoL Champions.

PraY is the only player to win the Korean league with 3 different teams. Not even a 6-month break in 2014 changed anything, after which the South Korean came back stronger than ever. He is undoubtedly one of the legends of LoL history.

Cho “Mata” Se-hyeong

Mata is one of the players who shaped the scene. With MVP Ozone, he won in the spring of 2013 as a blatant outsider, the final of the Korean league and established in 2014 as the best support in the world.

In a dominant run in the Season 4 World Championship, he triumphed on home soil. Even today, the former lineup of Samsung White is one of the candidates for the choice of the best team ever. In this squad Mata was the mastermind, making him one of the best players ever.

Choi “DanDy” In-kyu

DanDy is Mata’s longtime companion and for many the best junglers of all time. The South Korean played most of his career together with the support player and also hit his career peak in 2014. DanDy used to bet during this time with his extremely high game intelligence and was one of the few junglers in history to be able to decide on a regular basis game alone. To play against the 23-year-old was always a Herculean task for his competitors.

While Mata scored successes in his second year in China, DanDy disappeared from the big League of Legends stage after moving to China.

Gao “WeiXiao” Xue-Cheng

Even three years after his retirement, the name WeiXiao falls regularly when spoken by the best players in LoL history. He belongs to the first generation of Chinese players and had a massive influence on the scene.

The 25-year-old was considered a fantastic AD carry in team fights, the late phase of the game. Especially with Ezreal, one of his favorite champions, he gave some stunning performances.

Even before the scene developed into a professional tournament structure, WeiXiao won various Third-Party competitions with Team WE, including the prestigious IPL 5 at the end of 2012. At that time, the lineup was considered the best team in the world.

Bae “dade” Eo-jin

dade is one of the big players in the history of League of Legends. The South Korean was the only mid-laner in 2013 and 2014 to be on equal terms in several meetings with Faker.

In the spring of these two years, the 22-year-old won the MVP Award in the Korean league and with his team the title. Dade impressed everyone with excellent team fighting and often chose games for his remarkable achievements.

Like many other South Koreans, he also left his own region at the end of 2014 to accept a lucrative offer from China. His career was damaged by this decision because the former “King of the Spring” never found its way back to success.

League of Legends is currently the best game of esports. It supports the largest number of professional players of all games in professional games and is the biggest scene in the competitive games industry at the moment. Here we take a quick look at the best teams in the world of League of Legends, who are they and why do they deserve one of the best places in the sport. In the esports, you are as good as your last tournament. Therefore, this list will usually be based on the results of the performances in some of the biggest competition of the eSports title.

SK Telecom T1

This Korean team is the undisputed champion of the League of Legends. In the last world ranking, they almost completed the entire tournament without losing. The team is made up of some of the best players in the game, and they are widely regarded as the best team of League of Legends to play the game. Their ability to work as well as a team, control the lanes at will, and react to sudden or drastic changes in the opponent’s move is what drives them to the top of the rankings. Domination is a world little used in traditional sports. But when these guys play, they do not just win, they dominate.

Edward Gaming

Most fans would consider Edward Gaming no.3 in the League of Legends world, even if they did not get the most anticipated performance in the last big hit. These guys play very well, with one of the best players in the middle of the track, known as EDG. Keeping the middle lane strong is essential in the League of Legends, it’s like the quarterback role in American football. They have a strong core, but recent performances have shown the team’s lack of unity when things do not go as planned.

Fnatic

Fnatic is a team of European franchises with fingers in several esports pies. This team is very balanced and contains some of the best players in the game. They have always been a force to reckoned with on the main stage. Their success would come from controlling the advantageous top lanes on the map and effectively intimidating their opponents into playing at their own pace. Now, however, they have developed a bit more adaptability, having evolved their game to explore the trio of very useful carriers on the side. A team full of potential for future progress would be an appropriate summary for Fnatic.

Before this edition of the LoL World Championship, it was the only active team to have participated in all World Championships. But now their incredible run has come to an end. Its creation and professionalization happened for the participation of Riot Season 1 Championship, finishing in third place. They can surely be the best team in the world on their day.

Royal Never Give Up

RNG has always been one of the most dominant teams in the world. The team is known for his aggressive playing and finishing their games quickly. Except for the Worlds, the team has won every title there is in the competitive world of League of Legends. However, they sometimes get overconfident and lose to some of the weakest teams. This shows the lack of respect for other opponents.
