A sparkling player…

A few weeks ago, Riot Gamesthe studio behind League of Legends, Valorant and TFT in particular, announced the creation of their Hall of Legends. In traditional sports culture, Hall of Fame reward the greatest athletes in the history of a club, a competition or even a sport. This time, it will be the best esports players in the history of League of Legends who are in the spotlight. And to inaugurate this prestigious list, who better than Fakerthe undisputed star of the midlane.

From his real name Lee Sang-hyeokFaker managed, for more than 10 years, to be one of the best players in the world at his positionallowing him to win 4 world championships, a feat that only he achieved. Prowess that made him a star in the worldand especially in his country, South Korea, where he appears on TV alongside other idols of the country, such as footballers or singers.

But a trophy not up to par

And if for the occasion, Riot Games was pleased with the price of cosmetics linked to the event, they did not not happy with that. Indeed, the Korean star had the right to an honorary video bringing together interviews with those close to him and retracing his exceptional career. And a physical trophy, which will be added to his already well-stocked wardrobe. Only problem, this trophy was badly damagedas noticed by Internet users on Reddit.

A reward whose condition was far from being up to its owner. Which obviously outraged several fans, who were dismayed by Riot’s gesture. For its part, the studio’s Korean team declared that it had rectified the situation, by replacing the trophy immediately following the presentation. A good ending, for a situation which will have embarrassed more than one person.
