With the first Esports World Cup tournament in history, EWC 2024 also attracted the attention of the Esports community in general and League of Legends in particular. In this tournament, the BTC side intended to invite only 8 teams in 4 Major areas. Because the number of days of competition in League of Legends at EWC 2024 is too short. Moreover, 8 teams from Major will ensure the quality of the matches. And after 3 days of competition, in the evening of 7/7 – morning of July 8 (Vietnam time), the final of EWC 2024 took place between the Top Esports and T1 teams.
T1 confronted TES at the EWC 2024 Final
TES has proven that they are a lot more advanced than the MSI 2024 that the most obvious is the two convincing victories against Gen.G and G2 Esports – both the strongest teams in the LCK and LEC areas currently. However, winning game 1 is all that TES can do. They let T1 overwhelm the remaining 3 games. Even in game 4, Faker is so confident that he can use the middle line Yasuo and still operate effectively.
The victory is worthy for T1
However, how attractive the match was, before the match started, the audience and the players were tired. In all 4 games of the final, every game has a problem forced to start later than expected. For the players from Asia, plus most of the audience also from LCK, LPL or VCS is mainly, waiting for all the night to wear all night is completely bad. The tired image of the players on both sides is clear, especially when the game is also very intense, not easy for any name.
The fatigue is clearly revealed on the faces of the BlG players when they are continuously delayed
T1 is no exception
The audience is also too exhausted
Granted, the first organization may have a lot of negligence and problems, but if all 4 continuous games have technical problems, it is really worrying. Not to mention, the players as well as the audience are very tired and this is an important lesson for the EWC BTC to prepare more carefully in the following seasons.
