From Rock Bottom to Rebuilt: How League of Legends' Greatest Team Bounced Back
Losing to Samsung was supposed to be Faker’s lowest moment. The greatest player in the world in tears. The dynasty he’d spent years building shattered because he just wasn’t good enough.
After that crushing loss, 2018 was supposed to be Faker and SKT’s comeback year. They were looking for a redemption arc, to win back the title of League of Legends’ greatest team.
Instead, it turned out to be their worst year yet.
But the team’s 2018 woes seemed like a faded memory after SKT won two consecutive LCK titles, Rift Rivals, and took a top-four finish at Worlds.
So how did SKT do it? How did a team that hit rock bottom in 2018, come back and make top four at Worlds the following year?

The Demon King will always be back and claim his throne
Just once more, I'd like to see skt at the top
Just once more…
2018 skt is 2019 warriors
#SKTWIN
"and now he has to work just as hard as everyone else" Wtf…. Faker and Koreans in general work THE most compared to every other region. That's why they've been so successful and been at the top for so long. Faker didn't remain at the top because he was a prodigy, but because he worked extremely hard and even harder than his competition. It's only recently that he slumped which is to be expected… better yet Faker's slump/fall has been late overdue the dude held it at the top for more than anyone else can not due to his talent but his hard work and dedication. PLease don't take away from the hard work faker has put in, he makes it look easy but it's not.
Faker is and will always be the greatest player of all time in the league scene he achieved heights no one ever reached before.
set needs to bring bengi back
cool
Anything other than Worlds is failure for SKT.They are no ordinary organization.
I still remember that day of the finals. When I realized that they lost, I lost it. I cried pretty much every night for the week. It was devastating to see Faker cry. Heartbreaking.
Skt will bounce back
When Faker cries, I realize that he is truly the “Unkillable Demon King”
Next year NA worlds
"Don't be defeated. Don't feel down and don't sulk. Have faith in yourselves. Don't tilt. I'm not just saying this. We can do better"
Oh shit! When the GOAT tells you this? Chills! Perfect encouragement and comfort to his teammates.
Replace Faker. Yes I said it.
Damn, watching the last teamfights from that Worlds Semifinal gives my chills and goosebumps
3:28 Rap God
How did Faker and SKT come back? Beta Blocker, lads! xD
the shatter Effect is so Impactful
Sh*t their's so many sins in this video
I wouldn’t say it was Faker not being good enough.
Bang and Wolf are imo the biggest fucking troll duo I’ve seen in esports
The eSports is really scraping the bottom of the barrel here. Skt just got rid of their top and jg and faker had a fair worlds this year. They were stopped by a meme team and went 3-1 if I’m correct in worlds and msi. Skt really isn’t back I feel, they weren’t back from last year.
He always comeback hungry
Every lose has have a great win in the next game
amazing video. Faker and SKT are just legendary.
To be fair. SKT isn't exactly back. It wasn't the run that many expected with such a star studded line up. G2 became their 2019 kryptonite. However, their results were way better than 2018 but its not dynasty SKT.
what if Faker is the problem?
What SKT needs is bengi
Skt parin mga ulul.
With s5 MaRin they‘d clap everone
Rock bottom from the rock
And still no one gives any credit to Bengi the only other player that has 3 world championship under his belt. Skt has never lost in world with Bengi, in 2017 Bengi left Skt and they haven’t won a single championship since.
Faker playing old school meta and he cant connect with any of his teammates. He will never get to finals again
Again? Faker will be ever, im not his fan
I hope faker and skt gonna rise same level than in theys prime!
I am new, dota 2 looks much better than LoL.
SAMSUNG
SKT's kryptonite
Samsung always crushed SKT.
2014 SSW beat SKT, SKT did not even make it to worlds
2017 SSG Beats SKT at worlds to stop SKT again
SSW/SSG will always be the true heroes
I just hate that clid and khan left when they had such a good chance to win worlds this year. So sad that money means more than winning
Faker alone cost them the finals, no matter their support woes, he got caught or mispositioned time after time, he is the reason G2 came back every game
The new era is coming! -skt 2020
kind of an obvious documentary. anyone who follows professional LOL knows this
just make a video about how G2 build their team
G2 won because they had nontraditional team comp. In other words, game not balanced
Okay seriously though…SKT and Faker fan here. Wondering why the hell this video is being made. SKT hardly bounced back. Sure they had the LCK under their thumbs but they are a better team than G2 and simply failed to execute on the day twice in a row. One of them was a retarded yolo queue style baron throw and the other was faker clearly not being in his usual form. This is not a bounce back for SKT. Any other team sure but not SKT. The standard is higher than this and I doubt faker would disagree l.
Bang got disrespected wayyy too hard.
Faker is Still the No. 1 Player and the Legend of "LEGUE OF LEGENDS"
Fight me if you oppose it….
FAKER MONKAs
Why is this video a thing? They got 3-0’d by G2 in semis lmao. “All hail the Korean overlords” cringe as fuck. China won worlds for the second time in a row, time to wake up people.
