T1 continues to take controversial action as the drama with Gumayusi is still hot
Perhaps not only Gumayusi, but now it can be considered “dark” for T1 fans and the gunner's fans born in 2002. No one can imagine a player who has just won two World Championships in a row in the current situation. But perhaps, it was T1 who wanted things to get worse and worse with two new moves in the same day: While 1 coach of T1, release comments criticism or disparage Gumayusi, the media of the team cut the photo of this gunner out of the clip about the EWC 2024 championship.
Accordingly, the coach likes for negative comments towards Gumayusi is GBM – the T1 Challengers coach and the former teacher of Smash.
T1 fans discovered GBM – the coach of T1 CL team and the former teacher of Smash releasing heart for a lot of comments that decry Gumayusi.
GBM – former streamer and T1 Challengers coach.
The audience questioned about Gumayusi and had to apologize while no one mentioned GBM.
If the coach's actions can fall for many reasons, such as subjective or accidentally, then cutting the image of Gumayusi out of T1's EWC 2024 clip has really made the League of Legends community also difficult to understand and indignant. Because, Gumayusi is the most prominent player of T1 in that tournament, and he is also the one with the most use in the tournament: 10 generals in 10 different games.
Even in the opening match at EWC 2024 touching Bilibili Gaming, if not for the standard strokes and the smooth “dance” Jhin of Gumayusi along with Keria's Bard, T1 probably lost to the LPL representative and had to return home after only 1 match.
Right in the evening of the same day, T1 released the EWC 2024 clip but cut Gumayusi.
And certainly, the media clips will be approved by the superstructure before being published on the platforms. Therefore, it is impossible to say that the T1 superficial team does not know that Gumayusi's image is cut like this.
The League of Legends community is both confusing and pressing
Obviously, not only for eSports but even in the mainstream sport, the fact that a team wants such “mistreatment” actions, often due to the “god” must really take unprofessional actions, even showing an attitude of public opposition. But obviously, with Gumayusi, these things do not exist.
The player born in 2002 still shows the professional attitude and effort as possible. He also did not excited or lamented to fans on his streaming channels. Even, he always showed the attitude of supporting the team. Therefore, even Anti-Fan T1 or neutral audience cannot accept the very confusing actions of T1 now.
The community also cannot accept it.
At the present time, perhaps even when T1 voiced Smash and confirmed that Gumayusi was unique or explained, fans were exhausted. And when the incident is as the current level, perhaps the “liberation” of Gumayusi is what the LoL community is waiting.
