A five-time World Champion, you would think Faker has done it all in the League of Legends scene. And yet, the greatest player of all time continues to set new milestones, this time on the LCK stage.

By the time Faker walks on stage for T1's match against KT Rolster in the LCK Cup on Friday, January 24th, the mid laner will reach the historic milestone of having played 1000 official LCK games.

The stats of a champion

Having debuted back in 2013, Faker has now played in the LCK for thirteen consecutive seasons. Incredibly, Faker has only played for T1 (then named SK Telecom T1), serving as the embodiment of perseverance and commitment.

Despite his numerous accomplishments, however, perhaps the most remarkable aspect of Faker's career at this point in time may well be his all-time LCK stats. Across his 999 games played in the LCK so far, Faker has a win-loss ratio of 666-333, boasting a career KDA of 4.20. Now, if those are not the stats of a champion, then I don't know what are.

Tournaments counted towards these stats include all LCK Regular Season and Playoff games, as per the LCK website.

The historic achievement could not come in any other way than another exciting Telecom war. To catch Faker compete in his 1000th LCK game, tune in to watch T1 vs KT Rolster on the official LCK channels on Twitch and YouTube.
