Perhaps the League of Legends community still remembers the Faker – Qingtian incident from a while ago. It all started when the Top Esports player fed while climbing ranks with Faker; just a few comments escalated the situation, attracting the attention of the entire League of Legends community worldwide. Faker was upset about LPL players feeding, but the Chinese League of Legends community believed that the “Demon King” had a discriminatory attitude.
Not to mention, many people went to great lengths to search for instances of “feeding with no way back” among T1 members to counter Faker’s claim that most of the game feeders he encountered in the ranks were LPL players. The situation sparked intense debates right within the Chinese League of Legends community.
However, recently, the issue of players feeding while climbing ranks has resurfaced. The “culprit” this time is T1’s top laner – Zeus. Specifically, in recent ranked matches, when Zeus teamed up with Knight and then Tian, Photic…, this player used Tryndamere and… fed like never before. Even Knight had to complain on his stream upon seeing his teammate become the “ATM” for the opponents repeatedly.
When watching this match of Zeus, some LPL fans immediately took the opportunity to roast Faker, requesting that the match history be sent to the “Demon King” to see his reaction when he saw his teammates feeding like anyone else while climbing ranks.
However, in reality, Faker’s condemnation of Qingtian previously was not solely because the TES player fed but rather due to this player’s poor attitude, frequently calling for surrender, affecting the entire team. Nevertheless, LPL fans are still debating, and many of the opinions are criticizing the somewhat indifferent attitude of both Faker and T1 towards their members feeding like this while ranking.
