The Week of the early August of the summer of 2024 may be very tough with T1, when this team has to confront two extremely strong teams, Dplus and Gen.G. Both names can beat T1, especially DK will be very determined when this can be considered a decisive match between DK and T1 which team will stand on the tournament chart. And indeed, DK played very hard in game 1 to win the lead. However, that is all DK can do before T1 shows overwhelming in the remaining 2 games and winning the final 2-1.

More importantly, this victory has not helped T1 rise to the third place in the rankings because it is still poorer than DK, but helped Faker and his teammates extend the winning circuit in the second leg of the group stage. This weekend, T1 will encounter a much more difficult opponent DK, which is the reigning champion Gen.G. But with a good psychological premise, the audience has a basis to believe that T1 will be able to make a surprise before the team defeated them 9 times in a row.

Moreover, according to a audience pointing out: T1 in the August period of the summer LCK is always a very good T1 playing in the past few years. Specifically, from 2020 (the first season this team played under the name T1) to the present, Faker and his teammates lost only 3 matches in 3 years in the August period. Of these, all 3 matches only when T1 had fate the position on the rankings and started testing or competing in a more comfortable mood.
“You know, this is August and T1 always plays very focused in August.”
Of course, the possibility of that will still be repeated and the defeat in August 2024 will probably be the match against Gen.G. But anyway, T1 players are having good psychology and show that they can have unexpected homework. T1 has a more comfortable mind and is not under pressure to win. And when T1 was removed pressure, Gen.G itself was the team that was worried.
