Last week, T1 regained the first place of the LCK Spring 2024 after two victories against the other Dplus and Fearx. In the context of Gen.G before KT Rolster, the title competition in this spring tournament will probably still be just a “parallel” race between Gen.G and T1. The defending champion of the LCK champion still showed the power when it was easy to defeat Hanwha Life Esports. Meanwhile, T1 turned opponent Fearx into the next “victim” for “unique” tactical trials, especially in the supporting position of Keria.
T1 won the top position of the LCK LCK rankings 2024 after 2 victories against DK and Fearx
In particular, on the same day, Keria has created two important milestones in League of Legends and LCK. First, the Ezreal – one of the names also entered the form of “first generation” of League of Legends, has once returned to LCK as a support role after nearly 11 years. The last time this champion was used in the extremely “left” position on the hands of Poohmandu (also former SKT T1 member). That match, Poohmandu and SKT T1 failed, with the opponent, Mata used Anivia.

In addition, a second milestone is that Neekko has also returned to the support position after 945 days (nearly 3 years) since its first appearance is on August 17, 2021 under the LCK framework of that summer. Neekko user supported that Jun's Jun and he won Fredit Brion with Delight using Rakan.
Neeko also nearly 3 years to return to the support position
However, if Neeko is a “weird” option but still understanding when owning a set of wide -area control skills, good damage shock and extremely mobile, Ezreal is completely unsuitable for supporting role. It can be said that Keria was extremely confident to have this “general test”. Ezreal does not own too much other than the maneuverability from ancient movements, and the ability to poke with long -range skills but absolutely no control skill. Therefore, maybe no one will be able to (or have enough courage) to bring Ezreal to support in a professional match, especially at LCK.
Ezreal has absolutely no appropriate skill set for a support
But although T1 has a very strange choice, Fearx still cannot afford to surprise, even if it is just a game. Moreover, perhaps Keria just wants to test and will no longer bring Ezreal to a professional arena in the role of supporting any more.
