Faker is a bit overrated anyways. People act like hes a god everywhere. Lately in international tournaments, he doesnt look very good in the 1v1. Its kind of annoying going, OMG hes gonna face Faker! Will he get mauled in lane? When what generally happens is Faker falls behind, gets solo killed, gets pressured out, you name it, and his TEAM wins, and Faker has better map movements.
Faker is good, hes one of the best, but hes not the best everywhere. A lot of midlaners look better in the 1v1s, but fall apart in the map game.
Personally, I get tired of hearing how hes gonna dominate people, when you end up seeing him get solo killed or pushed out of lane/beat, only to rotate bot and get some free kills for nothing, and then people acting like he dumpstered his opposing mid laner, which is generally how its went in international comps. EU mid laners are amazing in lane. I will give them that.
I'm gonna get flamed for saying that, but everytime I plan on watching him dumpster some other mid, he ends up being the one losing lane in CS/getting sent back/getting solo killed.
