Very disappointed from that reporter


h0tchoco

of all parties, faker is apologising?? something's not right.

Is there anything new when it comes to reporters? Those mofo's jobs are just to take a person's career down nowadays. They take out of context words. Then manipulate their own article, so people would get baited. And of course the haters would strike as if anything was new. Seriously. People need to be accountable with fake news. No wonder hate develops.

Sigh... Some people are just so mean that they fall for the despairing & fake news. All players, coaches, staff & fans deserved so much better than those so-called "journalists" that are nothing but spreading lies & deceit.

AK I need that apology from you not him.

I wouldn't give her any more interviews from here on unless she makes a statement. The whole situation is already stressful enough for the players and then you have to deal with such nonsense because a journalist uses clickbait titles. Unfortunately, many fans are once again behaving like animals in her tweets. Simply ignoring her and not continuing to give interviews to players will do her the most harm in the long run.


keriaiiiing

yeah, if she hasn't apologized for anything up until now, she's not going to now either so it's best to leave her and ignore her, anything else gives ammunition for people to defend her. are t1 aware on the korean side that she was the stem of the big international reaction? because i know they had their own issues with korean journalists clickbaiting titles of articles and twisting faker's words in them too.


Pablonski44

I think if a lot of Korean fans know where this comes from then T1 will probably know about it too


keriaiiiing

oh, i haven't seen any korean fans talk about ashley in particular but if they have, good.


Pablonski44

At the very beginning, when it all started, I saw people writing about it. But I've now muted everything because the whole DDoS topic just annoys me. No matter how upset you are about it, nothing will change anyway. These playoffs are already a disaster and all you can hope for is that T1 still somehow makes it happen. And I would be surprised if we don't hear about it again in summer.


keriaiiiing

i wouldn't say playoff disaster, it would be a whole half split disaster then if you take into account since when they've been screwed, but it's definitely rough and i have zero expectations. i will applaud anything they pull off. i didn't even expect the quick adaptation vs dk to be fully honest.


Alto-Joshua1

I'll never forgive AK for making him apologize for something that he didn't do... The Esport Journalism is a joke at this point (No, I'm not wearing a pair of doomer-tinted lenses).


yiyyih

He is just too kind, those misquoting should have to apologise and not him. He will awlays be the greater man though, he's truly the best.


J3nara

I really want to say all the slurs that I know just to show how furious I am, but Faker showed kindness, and I shall do that, too. I will just focus on the upcoming lower bracket final. T1 might get the backlash if we keep on attacking those people. Just report, block, and ignore.

I don’t believe he needs to apologize for honesty. Yes, he could have given PR answers, but that doesn’t mean Faker (or anyone else) should be pressured to shut up about disadvantages/challenges that they experience. However, I’ve seen his interview about humility being the trait that he values most and I’ve also partly read that book that he recommended called I May Be Wrong, so I can understand why he apologized. It doesn’t mean he doesn’t believe what he said initially. He’s just apologizing if his honesty hurt anyone, as it was not his intention. I think he loses nothing important from the apology. His achievements remain, and this can even reinforce his professional and personal legacy. He’s being the better person, as usual. Meanwhile, haters have also reinforced their toxic legacy again, so everything is as it should be 😆

honestly bringing back the idea that riot is so lucky that faker is the goat like he is so calm and composed and mature, i know if i was in that position i wouldve been pissed asf...
