Besides the intense matches in the current League of Legends (LoL) scene, fans are also keenly interested in the ASIAD tournament. For LCK fans, this event is of special interest since it is almost certainly Faker’s last Asian Games. Not to mention, the presence of two Mid Laners (Faker and Chovy) will create an exciting competition for the official competition spots.
However, so far, the practice routines of the players and their preparations for ASIAD remain a mystery. Alongside ASIAD, players also have the LCK Summer to consider, and thus, KeSPA (Korean eSports Association) cannot interfere with the teams’ schedules. Recently, a surprising piece of information regarding ASIAD has stirred excitement among fans in South Korea.
Specifically, when a fan had the opportunity to check in with Faker, they sent the photo to a friend, who inadvertently posted it on social media. In the image, Faker is wearing a jersey featuring the South Korean flag. Many people commented that with the jersey’s polished design and the national flag displayed, it is likely the official jersey of the South Korean League of Legends team for the upcoming ASIAD.
However, some fans believe that this jersey design is not particularly attractive. Nevertheless, it is neat and appropriate for a significant event like ASIAD. Moreover, during the previous event, League of Legends was only a demonstration sport, so the jersey still had many elements reminiscent of Esports. Furthermore, the dominant color was blue, making it even easier to associate with the uniforms of… T1.
Previously, as they did not participate in the Road to ASEAN Games 2022, the information and performances of the South Korean LoL team were still a mystery. However, with the roster now announced, fans can follow the team through the LCK Summer 2023 to provide comments and predictions about the players’ performances at the upcoming ASIAD.
