A series of mistakes of the superstructure still seriously affects T1
There is a coincidence (perhaps) randomly full of interesting, which is the match that opens the dark period of Gumayusi in the 2025 season that is the other Dplus confrontation in the LCK Cup 2025. With unique ban, DK then defeated T1 with a score of 2-1. And this reunion also ended with a score of 2-1 but the victory belonged to T1. Only thing, the impact of the mistakes of the superstructure still makes the World Champion 2024 difficult.
Gumayusi's mistake made T1 almost pay the price.
Gumayusi's efforts are clearly visible, but he is also under pressure and leads to a hasty decision. Obviously, more than anyone else, Gumayusi aspires to prove and this is good. But this desire also creates a pressure for the gunner T1. The evidence is that in all 3 games, Gumayusi has at least 1 dangerous mistake. Fortunately for him, the whole team played well and preserved the victory.
Next, the performance of Doran or Keria, Faker. In all 3 games, perhaps Faker plays the best in game 1 and from the middle to the end of game 3 and game 2 can only be encapsulated in the word “disaster”. Both Doran only really plays the best when using the generals is really strong enough. Meanwhile, Keria also limited movement – the factor that created mutations for the previous T1.
Faker himself also has a match that does not really Max Ping.
T1 takes more time to actually return to the reel
Although he has won DK, but no one can know whether T1 has “closed” the squad book and competition for 5 players throughout or not. Perhaps the players themselves cannot know. But even when T1 closed the squad, they also need time to really stabilize.
Moreover, T1 is going slower than all other teams nearly half of the season. And if they still hope to win the MSI 2025, they have to accelerate more. To do this, the first is the stability and success, the players who have regained their inherent performance have helped them win the title in the last 2024 season.
