Only a few days left, the MSI 2024 tournament will officially start and the venue for the first international tournament of League of Legends village in 2024 will be in Chengdu, China. In this year's tournament, of course, the two LCK teams will still be appreciated. One side is the reigning LCK champion and ascended the throne in this tournament 4 times in a row – something that even the powerful SKT T1 has not done. And the other team is T1 – the reigning champion of Worlds 2023. Not to mention, JD Gaming – the most difficult opponent from LPL soon had to say goodbye to the tournament after the top of the top eSports.
T1 will still be the champion candidate of MSI 2024
However, for T1, the MSI 2024 championship will be more meaningful than ever. First, they have failed continuously against Gen.G in the domestic league. Therefore, international titles will be the end of the T1 collective. Moreover, since the start of this formation, MSI is the only tournament that the current T1 team has not conquered. In 2022, they had the opportunity to do that. But the unfortunate defeat against Royal Never Give Up made T1 missed the appointment until now.
The current squad has missed an appointment with the championship once in 2022
Not to mention, for Zeus alone, he needs this title even more. Because, the last LCK final of the 2024 Spring has marked one of the finals that Zeus played the worst. The good performance at MSI 2024 will help the player in 2004 regain confidence for himself as well as the audience. In addition, if you win this tournament, Zeus will be the youngest player in the history of SKT T1/T1 to collect all the titles.
Zeus will surely crave this title more than anyone else
For those who do not know, Zeus is currently only 20 years old but has enough championships from LCK, Worlds to ASIAD medal. And the only title he lacked was MSI. Therefore, if the tournament championship in Chengdu, Zeus will also break Faker's record. Because in 2016 when SKT T1 won the MSI championship, that year did not have the ASIAD award for Faker to show talent. Not to mention, Zeus and Faker and have had FMVP of Worlds but “Demon King” achieved this title at 20 years old while Zeus has owned it since the age of 19.
If the MSI 2024 championship, Zeus will become the youngest player in the history of SKT T1/T1.
Besides Zeus, Faker himself wants to add the MSI 2024 championship to the title collection. If he ascended the throne in Chengdu, Faker will balance the number of champions with Xiaohu and become the largest MSI championship of LCK.
Faker will also be the first midway of LCK Championship MSI 3 times if T1 ascended the throne in this year's tournament
T1 is full of determination, as well as goals at the upcoming MSI 2024. What they need is probably only in the performance of the players to prove that the team deserves to win the second largest international tournament of League of Legends village.
