As is known, on the third day of the MSI 2024 start round, T1 gently overcame Flyquest to become the first team of this round to participate in the upcoming group stage. This is in fact predicted before, when T1 must participate in the round of capital for weak teams of Major or small teams. And T1 itself has not shown that they actually expand 100% of their ability to enter the group stage. To be fair, T1 still plays fairly in accordance with the nature of the team. But their opponent is too weak and this can be considered as “the king's walk”.
T1 passed the MSI 2024 boot round quite light
The T1 players themselves are quite “chill” when facing opponents, of course much weaker than them. Worth mentioning, in the recent match against Flyquest, Zeus was even very confident when he went to the lane but has not yet raised any skill. Even when Bwipo ambushed in the bush, Zeus was quite calm. It was not until 4 Fly members attacked, that Zeus's K'Sante was raised to W and had a throw of 3 people. This helped Zeus maximize the amount of gold obtained when 3 teammates later came to support him.
Zeus does not raise skills even after lane and being attacked
Then he lifted into W and had a scene of 3 rival members
In fact, raising early skills is almost a habit for every League of Legends players, including normal gamers or professional players. This is actually not wrong, when most players know who the opponent is and they need any skills to go lane effectively. But there are also some players waiting until lane or in a specific situation to improve skills. Only thing, this is quite rare and few people do in the matches of important nature.
The action shows the absolute confidence of Zeus
Zeus's actions show a certain confidence but also the audience expressed concern. For weak teams like Fly, this does not affect even helping Zeus to have a good amount of resources in the early game. But if the opponent is a stronger team, perhaps the road on T1's house will not be so subjective.
“The crazy thing is that Zeus does not raise any skill even when Bwipo hid in the dust. He then lifted and wed first and had a stun 3 to let his team clean the battlefield.”
Anyway, T1 also achieved the initial goal of reaching the MSI 2024 group stage. In the upcoming matches, there will be no weak opponents so that T1 can play too comfortably. And if you look on the positive side, it can be understood that Zeus's actions show that he and his teammates are psychologically comfortable. This may be a good premise for T1 to achieve the highest goals in MSI this time.
