Lee “Closer” Ju-hyeon Shows Faker-esque Skill with Incredible Irelia Outplay
Lee “Closer” Ju-hyeon, the 16-year-old mid lane trainee for renowned League of Legends team T1, displayed extraordinary skill reminiscent of Lee “Faker” Sang-hyeok when he pulled off an amazing Irelia outplay in a seemingly impossible situation.
After a difficult early game with only one kill and seven deaths, Closer found himself matched against a massively fed Qiyana. Within moments, his health dropped to dangerously low levels, putting him at the brink of death. However, in a season three Faker-like manner, he made a remarkable recovery.
He skillfully dodged and stunned Qiyana, evading death by a hair’s breadth. He then turned the tables, bringing her health down to equal footing. Utilizing lifesteal from minions, Closer relentlessly attacked until he secured the kill.
In a matter of seconds, against all odds, Closer emerged victorious.
In a further display of his skill, he expertly sidestepped an enemy Senna ultimate, emerging from the intense battle unscathed.
Although Closer is currently slated to remain on T1’s bench for the 2020 LCK season, he shows great promise for the future of the South Korean league. Despite being overshadowed by Faker, he proves himself as a talented prospect.
Who knows? In just a couple of years, it may be Closer’s turn to compete on the world stage.
