A former Fnatic player reminisces about an unforgettable encounter with Faker, etched in memory and bone.
Nisqy, the mid laner who once donned the Fnatic jersey from 2020 to 2021 and now curates a YouTube channel dedicated to LoL tutorials, revisits a particular moment. He reveals: 'I once found myself in an elevator with Faker en route to the competition venue at the 2019 Worlds. However, contrary to my expectations of meeting Faker for the first time, I couldn't find the words or initiate any serious conversation related to the game we both pursue. I felt extremely nervous standing in front of the presence of the 'GOAT' (Greatest Of All Time) Faker.'
Nisqy was once hailed as one of the top 5 players in the North American LCS Spring 2020 esports tournament. Despite a tumultuous career marked by frequent team changes, the former Fnatic mid laner has consistently earned high praise from gaming enthusiasts for his skillset and gaming mentality. It's worth noting that the only words he exchanged with Faker upon their chance encounter were, 'Nice, Tristana.'
The reason behind Nisqy's remark lies in Faker's stellar performance with Tristana during the clash against Nisqy's FNC team at the Worlds 2019 Group Stage. However, Nisqy wasn't part of the starting lineup for that match; Nemesis was instead.
Truly, everyone yearns for a chance to meet and snap a picture with the 'Demon King' Faker in the flesh. Yet, when the moment arrives, few can utter a word or stand frozen like Nisqy. This underscores a truth: no League of Legends player has wielded as much influence as Faker. And no one has the power to captivate both fans and renowned idolized players like the living legend of the LCK.
