The League of Legends World Championship is in its 12th year, and some players have been a part of it for a long time, but who has died the most in LoL Worlds history? That is what we will discover today.
Faker surpassed the 100-game mark earlier this month at the League of Legends World Championship. At the LoL Worlds, he also surpassed Uzi in terms of kills. But does he also hold the record for the most deaths? With so many games under his belt, wouldn’t it make sense?
Well, someone has surpassed even the unkillable demon king in this area, but how many games has it taken this player to achieve new heights in terms of World Championship deaths? Let us investigate!
The player who died the most in Worlds History
Fnatic support player Zdravets “Hylissang” Iliev Galabov holds the record for the most deaths in League of Legends Worlds history. After the LoL Worlds 2022 group stage, he has taken the lead in terms of League of Legends World Championship deaths.
Hylissang has killed 217 people in 53 World Championship battles. That’s three more deaths than the runner-up on our list, Perkz, who has 214 deaths in 86 games.
Sure, Hylissang has more deaths and has played about 30 games fewer than Perkz, but his playstyle explains why he dies so frequently. He gives up himself for the sake of his team, creating space and opportunity for his carriers too. And we all know we’d rather lose our support than our fed 5/0/3 Aphelios, don’t we?
Perkz, as previously stated, is a close second with 214 deaths in 86 games. Who is the third person? It’s none other than Faker. He’s ranked third, having played 103 games and dying 213 times. With both Hyli and Perkz out of the World Championship and Faker not even attending the event in North America, it is quite possible that Faker will be number one in deaths at the end of the tournament.
Please keep in mind that this post was prepared before the quarterfinal match between RNG and T1, so anything may happen and we could have a new king of deaths on the leaderboard. But are you truly interested in this position?
Fnatic’s top laner Wunder is fourth with 203 fatalities in 73 games, while Evil Geniuses’ top laner Impact rounds out the top five with 187 deaths in 84 games in the League of Legends World Championship.
The ADC with the most deaths is former C9 bot laner Sneaky, who has 172 in 75 games, while the jungler with the most deaths is Jankos, who has 185 in 75 games. So, will Faker set another death record or reach new heights? He has been really dedicated during the group stage, therefore he could also win the title.
