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.”

    I mean this is how pro players tend to play. A lot of “hook predictions” aren’t based on movement or split second decisions, but rather studying constant game film, looking at how a certain player does things like trade in lane or farm under tower
