At the present time, Faker and his teammates at the Korean League of Legends (LMHT) team landed in Hangzhou to prepare for the journey at ASIAD.

However, for Western League of Legends audiences (the rest of the League of Legends community), attention is somewhat focused on the 2023 World Finals – the tournament in which Faker as well as Korean League of Legends members will participate.
But the upcoming 2023 World Championship is also very important for Faker and T1
According to a League of Legends expert, a ranking of players by position at the upcoming 2023 World Championship has been created.
A controversial ranking created by international experts
Faker’s position is lower than both his own `defeated generals` and T1 in the LCK, when Faker plays with his home team (like Bdd, ShowMaker).
Faker is even lower than his `defeated generals` like ShowMaker, Bdd and is only on par with LEC runner-up – Humanoid
This ranking immediately sparked controversy.
`Is Faker on par with Humanoid?`
`This must be a personal opinion, right? Because in Faker’s position, everyone who is ranked higher has at least once defeated Faker’s champion in international tournaments.`
`Faker being ranked tier A is really wrong. Without him, T1 is just the worst team in the LCK. And with Faker, T1 becomes a championship candidate. Even when playing as a playmaker or `carrying the team`
Of course, at the present time, in terms of `big players`, it may be difficult for Faker to compare with names like Chovy, Knight or Yagao.
