It’s not that Faker has never used skins. He has used skins five times. However, when Faker didn’t use skins, he first said that he was a high school student and had no money. Later, he said that using skins was cheating. Later, he said that he was afraid of using skins. The bad boy charges money. I think the faker doesn't need a skin, maybe it's like a personal label similar to Jordan chewing gum, sticking out his tongue.
To be more precise, it’s not that Faker never uses it, it’s almost that he doesn’t use it.
From his debut to today, from OGN to LCK, All-Star to MSI, 6 S-Leagues and other events, Li has played nearly a thousand games.
In so many games, Brother Li has only used non-classic skins 5 times.
2013 OGN Winter Championship? Bunny Girl Riven
2014 Paris All-Stars? Champion Zed
2015 LCK Preseason? Future Warrior Izeri Er
The 15th LCK Spring Split? Chang'e Bright Moon
The 16th S6 World Championship? Champion Ryze
Exclude all-star entertainment competitions, exclude insignificant seasons Before the game, excluding the bunny girl time, because the staff used this skin when testing the machine before the game, and Brother Li forgot to change it back during the game. This skin was misused.
To be honest, Brother Li has only used two non-classic skins, Chang'e Bright Moon and Champion Ryze.
As for the reason, Brother Li himself said in an interview after he mistakenly chose the bunny girl: "I am a high school student and have no money. Although I can use the skins in the game freely, I am too lazy to change them." ?
Although Brother Li was at the peak of his career, he could not change the fact that he was still a minor at the time. For a child whose family was not originally well-off, it was not impossible for him to be unwilling to spend money to buy skin. I was only 17 or 8 years old at that time. He was accustomed to using classic skins in the early days, and he will not change easily in the future. Especially for him who is now the most honored person and the first person in LOL, not using skins has become a label and will not be changed easily, just like Jordan's chewing gum and Like sticking out your tongue.
