Faker has managed to stretch one of the many iconic records he holds after Wednesday’s LCK playoff match against Dplus KIA, where he used Corki to get his 17th straight win with the champion.
He is comfortable with Corki and has used the champion to shine throughout his career. What makes this one more iconic is the fact that he has not lost since the COVID period. This alone is one of the reasons he’s considered one of the greatest League of Legends players of all time.
He was returned into the T1 lineup, who desperately needed a boost in the middle of the LCK playoff run as they had lost seven out of their previous eight games without him. Faker was out throughout July due to an arm injury.
He slotted straight into the team without any signs that he had been away as he handled the first few series well before bringing his strong Corki to secure T1’s place in the second round of the LCK Summer Playoffs.
Faker put Corki, one of the professional League’s most impressive streaks, on the line in game three of Wednesday’s best-of-five match against Dplus KIA. He has not lost with Corki since April 2020 going into Wednesday’s game.
After the game, the statistics didn’t change as it keeps the record that has been reading since April 22, 2020, winning 17 consecutive games with the champion.
During the winning streak, he used Corki beat nine different franchises, posting a KDA of 6.34 across the 17 games, according to LoL stats site Games of Legends.
