C9 have the chance to break one of Faker’s oldest LoL Worlds streaks in Swiss stage

Across his entire 11-season career, legendary T1 mid laner Faker has never lost a game to a North American team at the League of Legends World Championship. Cloud9 are looking to permanently alter that. 

The second day of the Worlds Swiss stage wrapped up earlier today and teams were drawn into the next stage of the bracket. T1 and Cloud9 were both 1-1 after the second day of play, and as fate would have it, the two legacy orgs drew each other for their third round match. And although both teams are sitting with even records going into this match, it’s hard to bet against Faker when he’s staring down a North American team on the other side of the Rift—especially under the bright lights of the Worlds stage.
