Battle T1 – KT could be a premise to determine the World Championship team
As is known, in the afternoon of September 14 (Vietnam time), T1 and KT Rolster entered the final match of the summer period of the worldwide League of Legends community to deliver the owner of the final capacity to attend Worlds 2024. Not to betray the League of Legends community worldwide (and perhaps of Riot), T1 has won the largest international team, becoming the largest international team of this year, becoming the largest international team of this year, becoming the final team of the final team of this year's team, becoming the final team of the final tournament of this year, becoming the final team of the most international team of the tour League of Legends. But, it will be even more meaningful to know, KT in the past also “contributed” to the team to win the World Championship later.
KT was unable to attend Worlds 2024 but in the past, they had “contributed” to determining the teams that would take the throne afterwards.
Specifically, from 2013 to before Worlds 2024, except for 2014 – 2016, and 2019 – 2021, the rest, all World Championship teams have defeated KT. Specifically, it is SKT T1 (2013), Samsung Galaxy (2017), Invictus Gaming (2018), Drx (2022) and T1 (2023). Particularly in 2023, KT was defeated against Bilibili Gaming and LNG Esports, JD Gaming. However, the “spiritual element” did not promote the LPL teams when T1 had “taken” before KT chose T1 in the first match of the Playoffs LCK that summer.
T1 of the summer year 2023 has a lot of “resentment” with KT
Even IG is an outsider team that “benefits” from KT
In particular, in 2016, Samsung Galaxy defeated KT to win the last capacity to attend Worlds that year. SSG then came to the Worlds Finals of the same year, but had to accept defeat before the powerful team SKT T1.
But the T1 players still have to make more efforts
In the summer of 2024, it can be said that T1 is even weaker than themselves last year and was doubted. It was still that squad, but even the audience and the players could only breathe when KT's main house exploded in game 5. It would be somewhat impossible to protect the championship if the T1 played like the past time at the upcoming Worlds.
T1 still has a difficult journey ahead
The World Championship will be very different and the teams will be very determined to accomplish their goals. Each match will be very important and the T1 players themselves will have to try their best if they want to repeat the magical journey like last year.
