Entering the first leg of the LCK group stage 2024, T1 encountered a very strong opponent, KT Rolster. Up to now, KT is also the only team that has defeated Gen.G in this spring. KT itself is also a candidate for one of the two MSI 2024 premiums and moreover is the title of the LCK Spring Championship 2024. However, a high T1 clash is also a difficult challenge for Deft and his teammates.
T1 has a match against strong opponent KT in the first leg of the LCK group stage 2024
Only thing, KT in the second leg against T1 absolutely did not show that they were the team that stopped Gen's unbeaten chain. Two games, T1 have a match from balancing to encroachment, even if Faker and his teammates choose weaker champions than KT (in game 1).
T1 won game 1 even though the general was weaker than the beginning of the match
Even when Deft – Beryl is used very strong bottom duo, Kalista – Renata, they also hit the general when the T1 stars play too tightly. Entering game 2, KT simply could not resist the power of the T1 players in a rare game that Gumayusi was used as a general who was the gunner “Late Game Team” – Smolder. As a result, KT urged 0-2 to quickly and T1 continued to protect the first position of his spring LCK rankings.

But the strongest thing of the current T1 has also been revealed by this team: In this current squad, anyone can carry their team and play the way they may not be able to study. In game 1, KT banned a series of T1 -handed generals but just opened the Senna – Nautilus, immediately the Deft – Beryl duo was disabled despite holding stronger champions. Game 1 is the imprint of the T1 players, tactics and macro skills show how they will adapt if they have to choose less than the champion than the opponent.
It is difficult to catch the T1 card when even holding the general is inferior to the opponent, they still win
Entering game 2, it is a thorough use of very strong options in the current meta. It also shows that T1 has a secret weapon called Gumayusi. This is the first game that Gumayusi has 5 or more defeated networks but does not have to lie down at any time. This shows that, although from the beginning of the season, it is not really outstanding, but the “Crown Prince” is always ready to shine as he himself has affirmed.

T1 is now too comprehensive and clear, they are proving to be really a brightest candidate for the spring championship 2024. However, the T1 journey is still long and certainly the players are not subjective, especially they will surely have a match against Gen.G – the rival to assert their ambition.
