Recently, during a stream on Twitch, Faker used his signature champion LeBlanc as usual and created a highlight-worthy moment with this champion, impressing the viewers watching the live channel of T1’s captain.
In this situation, Faker was ganked early by the enemy jungler Poppy when he was only level 2. If he were an ordinary player, he would surely do everything to escape to the tower area to save his life, but the Demon King did not do that. Because LeBlanc’s W – her only escape tool – had 1 second left to recharge, and with such low health, there was no guarantee that Faker wouldn’t be chased down and killed right under the tower by those two players.
As soon as he reached level 3, he decided to “play tag” with the opponents when the Illusionist passive activated. Faker used LeBlanc’s shadow to move in a zig-zag direction to distract Sylas and Poppy while he himself dashed straight towards the river bank.
When the two enemy players realized what was happening, LeBlanc had already maintained a safe distance, and even the Demon King made a counterattack by using E to chain Poppy, taking her down before Sylas’s helpless eyes, escaping with just a sliver of health left.
Faker’s maneuver immediately drew gasps of admiration from the viewers watching the stream, as even when caught in the most “dangerous” situation, his mind was quick enough to “calculate” and execute a perfect play, showcasing an astonishing precision in damage calculation.
Faker’s LeBlanc brand truly needs no introduction, but sometimes, he still knows how to make even his die-hard fans marvel at a top-tier play with this champion.
Clearly, only in Faker’s hands does LeBlanc reveal the full potential of a champion possessing unparalleled transformation power in League of Legends.
