how is that even relevant, you act like Faker comes from a privileged family. The guy grew up with a single father and lived in poverty. Sure, it's not as dramatic as s1mple, but you act like Faker hasn't gone through hardship either.
And fucking dramabaiting does not make s1mple a better gamer than Faker lol. Even at peak s1mple had a rival - Zywoo. (not necessarily better, but someone who cane very close) Faker literally had no one to match his skill at his peak, that's how dominant he was.
He always had to to play with shit players in a shitty enviorment, against the greatest team of all time, had his peak when there were no majors, has been in the conversation for best player in the world for 6 years, and has improved every single year.
Faker also had to deal with shit players too. Guess where he got with them? Worlds grand finals in 2018. Literally solocarried a shit team to finals.
He was the reason SKT was the greatest team of all time as well.
"Had his peak when there were no majors" okay how does this in any way shape or form make s1mple better than Faker lol, just makes things more dramatic.
"In conversation for best player for the past 6 years" Literally Faker has been a top 10 player/midlaner for the entirety of his career lol, the longevity Faker has is unmatched, even by s1mple.
"And has improved every single year" ok buddy, you literally have no idea what you're talking about. Faker has also improved every single year. Faker literally changed his entire playstyle from hypercarry to supportive playmaker and still gets not only results, but great performances.
Reading what you wrote it just seems like you think s1mple is the better player solely because you like his story. That's it. No other reason at all. You can like him for that but it doesn't make him the better player lol.
