It’s Faker’s world. We’re all just living in it.
The 26-year old, whose real name is Lee Sang-hyeok, has captivated esports audiences with his entertaining gaming style and dominance over the years. In a sport shaped so much by its youth, Faker is a breath of fresh air — a wily veteran who has been around the block more times than most.
With three League of Legends World Championship titles under his belt, Faker is perhaps the finest LoL player ever. On Saturday, he’ll get a chance to add to his glimmering legacy at the Chase Center in San Francisco.
The Seoul native is slotted in as the mid-laner for perennial championship contender T1, which will face off against fellow South Korean side DRX for the world title. The best-of-five series will take place in front of a raucous crowd that will be hoping to witness more history in the burgeoning sport. Faker, a player known for his flair for the dramatic, should be the star of the show.
Fans hoping to watch the action as it happens will be spoilt for choice when it comes to options. The tournament will be streamed on a number of different platforms.
Here’s how you can watch one of gaming’s greatest spectacles from the comfort of your location . . . free.
