Perhaps Riot himself did not expect this achievement of Faker.
Faker set another unprecedented milestone in the history of League of Legends
Normally, in any game, the characters in the game will have extremely eye-catching and gorgeous costumes. Even with some famous names, these items are one of the main sources of revenue for game publishers and of course League of Legends is no exception. In particular, League of Legends' rich skin system also offers skin lines honoring World Championship champions - their biggest tournament of the year. Therefore, a difficult situation has come to Faker - the player with the most World Championships in League of Legends history. Faker set a new milestone
Accordingly, by winning the 2024 World Championship with T1, and also winning the FMVP of the final match, Faker will increase the total number of costumes he owns to 9. For those who do not know, the number of costumes that Faker owns is Until now, there have been more than 62 different champions in League of Legends - more than 1/3 of the total number of champions in this game. Faker will have 9 skins named after him - more than 62 champions of League of Legends
But Faker's achievements speak to Riot's problems
In fact, the developer of this game itself is not really "fair" with its generals. There are many names that have not had any new skins for a long time, even though they themselves often appear in tournaments. The reason is mostly because these are champions whose appearance is not really eye-catching, so Riot has to calculate so as not to lose capital. Typical examples include Ornn, Pyke... Even LeBlanc didn't get a new skin until he appeared in Faker's HoL. Ornn often appears in different metas but the number of skins is far less than Faker
However, at the present time, Riot probably will not rush to change its policy. The main reason is that T1 won the championship, and Faker is also FMVP. Therefore, they will almost certainly have a large income in 2025, when a series of skins honoring the only king of League of Legends is officially launched with Faker's Prestige skins playing the perfect visual role. best.
