LoL Esports Announce Faker As The First Inductee In Hall of Legends

League of Legends Esports has just announced that Lee ‘Faker’ Sang-hyeok is the first inductee of the prestigious LoL Hall of Legends.

The announcement states that Faker has been added as the first Hall of Legends inductee due to “his mastery of League of Legends gameplay, numerous contributions to the sport, and for inspiring millions of fans across the globe.”

Since Riot Games unveiled the Hall of Legends in January 2024, the community has been buzzing with speculation regarding its potential inductees. However, the news isn’t particularly surprising, considering that the majority of the community had already acknowledged Faker as the most deserving candidate to be immortalized in the game’s Hall of Fame.

“Faker is truly the most iconic and influential figure in League of Legends and esports history,” John Needham, President of Esports at Riot Games, said in a statement. “His name is synonymous with excellence in LoL Esports, and he has rightfully earned his place as our very first Hall of Legends inductee.”

While esports is gaining more momentum, we at Mercedes Benz are delighted to extend our role as the official automotive partner of all global League of Legends Esports events to the Hall of Legends. I am more than happy to honor Faker as the first ever member. We are convinced that the Hall of Legends marks the next step in our ongoing partnership with Riot Games after all previous successful community focused events and the jointly created traditions, such as the Championship Ring.

Faker will be commemorated with an in-game event, inviting fans to celebrate the pro player through custom cosmetic items that are crafted to honor his journey to the pinnacle of League of Legends. Mercedes-Benz will also present a dedicated art piece for Faker, rendered in the game’s distinctive art style. This artwork will detail Faker’s most significant career milestones, ensuring a fitting tribute to his achievements.
