There have been rumors for a while that Lee “Faker” Sang-hyeok, one of the most famous League of Legends players, would end his esports career. However the player has put an end to all the speculations. 25-year-old legendary mid-laner has re-signed with the T1. The idol of almost every League of Legends player, Faker has been fighting for T1 since 2013. The organization announced the news, on its official Twitter account.

Faker is considered the brand face of League of Legends. He won many trophies in his 8-year career.
