    Yeah, overall this year Worlds was a banger, we have never seen so many Worlds Champs to be on stage at 1 tournament.

    2013,2015,2016 – Faker
    2017 – Ruler, CoreJJ
    2018 – TheShy
    2019 – Crisp
    2020 – Canyon, Showmaker
    2021 – Scout
    2022 – Deft

    If we count in Mata who was on a coaching staff of … KT? then we have all Worlds Champs from 2013
