Faker has more skins than almost one-third of the LoL roster

by

This is a collection of League of Legends skins created to celebrate the amazing career of Lee “Faker” Sang-hyeok.

Lee “Faker” Sang-hyeok, the famous League of Legends player, is on the verge of winning another World Championship. If he and his team beat KT Rolster in the Worlds 2025 finals, a special “Faker” skin will be released for players to use in the game.

For now, you can check out all of his existing skins that are in the game.

Faker skins in League of Legends

Faker boasts an impressive collection of nine skins – more than half of all the champions in League of Legends! This represents over 30% of the entire champion lineup.

If he wins the World Championship in 2025, here are the champions he could pick for his tenth unique skin.

SKT T1 Zed (2013)

Man, I still remember 2013 like it was yesterday! That was the year SKT T1 absolutely crushed it and took home the League of Legends World Championship for the first time. And Faker? His Zed was legendary – seriously, everyone knows why that Zed was so insane!

The 2013 Summer Champions Grand Final pitted SK Telecom T1 K against KT Rolster Bullets. The match went the distance to a deciding fifth game, and a unique situation arose: both teams chose Zed for their mid lane players, creating a head-to-head battle between the two champions.

As you may have already guessed, this is when the “Faker, what was that?!” call was made.

During the Season 3 World Championship, Zed was rarely allowed in SKT T1’s matches. Faker only had the opportunity to play the champion once – in the second game of the final match against Royal Club.

It seems Faker initially wanted a skin for Ahri, but Riot couldn’t fulfill the request because they were already developing the Popstar Ahri skin at the time.

SKT T1 Ryze (2015)

Two years after his first championship win, Faker earned another trophy and, with it, another unique character skin for the game. He selected Ryze this time. Interestingly, Azir was also available in the same skin collection, but it was chosen by the team’s substitute mid laner, Lee “Easyhoon” Ji-hoon.

Faker completely controlled the tournament playing Ryze. He won every single time he picked the champion – a total of five matches. This included a dominant performance in the final game against KOO Tigers, where he ended with an incredible 9 kills, 0 deaths, and 4 assists.

For years that follow, Faker would be depicted as Ryze in most Worlds music videos.

SKT T1 Syndra (2016)

Immediately after, Faker would pick up another championship. This time, Syndra was his choice.

It was a surprising pick, considering he’d only played Syndra twice, although he did win both of those games. He had significantly more experience with Orianna and Viktor. Interestingly, he ended up getting an Orianna skin later on anyway.

T1 Orianna (2023)

Following a period without a title, Faker reclaimed victory. He played Orianna, and the champion received a special new design representing his team, T1.

During the 2023 World Championship, the player used Orianna and Azir equally, playing each champion in six games. He also achieved an 80% win rate with both of them.

Hall of Legends – Faker skins: Immortalized Legend and Risen Legend Ahri, Risen Legend LeBlanc (2024)

These were granted to Faker after his induction into the Hall of Legends.

Okay, so the price of the new skins is a bit of a hot topic, but honestly, I’m just so happy to finally see Faker get an Ahri skin! Fans have been asking for this for ten years, and it’s awesome that Riot finally delivered. It feels really well-deserved.

Throughout his professional career as a mid laner, he’s achieved a remarkable win record with these two champions.

As of today, Faker has played 71 games with Ahri, winning 66.2% of them – making it his fifth most-played champion. He’s also played LeBlanc in 58 games, achieving a strong 79.3% win rate, and it’s his ninth most-played champion.

T1 Yone and Prestige T1 Sylas (2024)

Faker would once again be a back-to-back World Champion, meaning he would get back-to-back skins.

He only played Yone three times during the entire event, and one of those games was a loss against BLG in the first game of the finals.

Sylas was named MVP of the finals and also received the exclusive Prestige edition of his skin. He played Sylas a total of three times during the final match, achieving two wins and one loss.
