Not just players but also coaching staff.
It feels like LPL is much better competition wise at the top level only to find Korea just comes backs and wins it.

I feel like people don’t know the context of why Korea LoL overall scenario came to be what it is.
It’s actually related to history.
It’s because of the 98 Korean Crisis, which as a result resulted in the PC Bang Explosion and Gaming Culture.
That is because due to polverty people would go for cheap entertainment.
So genres like RTS and MMO would explode between 90’s and 2000’s.
We had Nexon on the MMO upfront and Blizzard on the RTS upfront.
Star Craft became famous due to that.
What happened with League is that most of the first korean players that started playing League are residual players from RTS genres, which created a environment where the overall macro and micro was way higher than the avg in other regions.
This allowed for all players to developed their skills much better than other regions, and players who came later into the korean sever and weren’t from the 1998~2010 Generation basically were in contact with that environment and managed to develop a better skill.
That’s why players like Faker and Deft exist in first place
Faker didn’t start playing league like a Silver/Bronze player.
He was a high elo Start Craft Player who took interest in League.
His macro was way above the avg player in a global scale.
That is also why Faker looks like a psychopath with how much he changes his screens between players, that is macro from SC.
