During the highly anticipated Worlds and MSI tournaments, fans were treated to a rare sight: the reunion of two legendary mid laners, T1 Faker and G2 Caps. These players have solidified their positions as the absolute best in their respective regions. As Worlds 2023 approached, the two titans met up, sharing their thoughts and exchanging unique gifts.
G2 Caps surprises T1 Faker with a massive cactus plant at Worlds 2023
In a special visit to the T1 headquarters in Seoul, South Korea, G2 Esports had the opportunity to meet with the League of Legends Champions Korea (LCK) team. The highlight of this meetup was an intimate conversation between Lee “Faker” Sang-hyeok and Rasmus “Caps” Winther, where they discussed physical exercise, touring Korea, and exchanged gifts.
Faker presented Caps with an exclusive T1 merchandise: a denim jacket with the words “Faker one and only” printed on the back. It was a token of appreciation from Faker, recognizing Caps’ admiration for him.
In a playful twist, Caps surprised Faker with a massive cactus plant as his gift. He humorously named it the “Unkillable Demon Cactus,” a nod to Faker’s nickname, the “Unkillable Demon King.” Caps revealed that it took some effort to find the perfect cactus, as they had to visit five different stores.
While cacti are not truly unkillable, they are known for their remarkable resilience. These plants thrive in arid environments due to their ability to store water in their thick stems or pads. This adaptation allows cacti to endure prolonged droughts and harsh desert conditions.
The connection between these two mid laners runs deep, as Faker served as a significant source of inspiration for Caps to embark on his professional League of Legends journey. Caps has always looked up to Faker, especially after witnessing his incredible performance and championship victories at Season 3 Worlds.
Faker’s legacy as the mid laner for T1 (formerly SK Telecom T1) is marked by numerous championship victories, including three World Championship titles. He achieved these triumphs alongside former jungler and retired coach Bae “Bengi” Seong-woong.
On the other hand, Caps has become the most decorated player in the LEC, boasting an impressive 10 LEC titles at the time of writing. His dedication and skill have made him a force to be reckoned with in the European League of Legends scene.
The reunion of Faker and Caps at Worlds 2023 was a special moment for fans and players alike. It showcased the mutual respect and admiration between these two legendary mid laners. As they continue their journeys in the competitive League of Legends scene, fans eagerly anticipate their future encounters and the excitement they bring to the game.
