IWD response to my post: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMgbK1x52rQ&ab_channel=IWDClips%26Highlights
I got lots of heat and hate in my previous post about Faker’s micromovement. Non-T1 fans and IWD mocked me about how dumb/stupid the post was about. But hey, Faker had a live-stream reviewing every single T1 game in Worlds. During the review on T1 vs LNG, Faker himself explained what happened.
Faker’s response (1:53~2:07): https://youtu.be/38H_lcL7e-U?si=u-JW3rJt3Hjmntp9&t=113
- Translations:
“Azir is csing the minions here (in the circle)”
“I am purposely giving him the range to toss me into the tower”
“Azir is probably looking at the minion (arrow) right now and he is probably thinking ‘I should toss him after this melee minion’. But if I turn on W and just move slightly back like this, Azir gets a disadvantage. Just like that.”
Fyi he doesn’t hate T1 players, just the fans and enjoys seeing them sad by losing. But I really just don’t see how he typically hates on korean players. Like if we’re being objective here a lot of the KR imports on CN teams were (Not literally) playing secret agent and inting. If you watch his CN co-streams he’s just as critical to them as he is to KR.
He also does analysis (Not to the extent of caedrel). You can’t find a single piece of evidence of Dom spreading hate to T1 players. What typically happens is he’ll make a tier list and like many will say Miky > Keria (IN recent form), then a lot of T1 fans cry and then he has to go into detail as to why Keria (Who had been playing like ass) is below Miky, and it’s perceived as hate just due the tone.
I completely understand he can be very negative but Irdc personally but for sure that puts people off
