(Sports Seoul | Reporter Kim Min -kyu) The T1 of the fall came early. The winner of the LOL World Championship (Rolled Cup), the largest ever, is knocking on the door of the autumn stage again. The T1 has emerged as a ‘nuclear’ in the fight against the Rolled Cup in the 3rd round of the 2025 LOL Champions Korea (LCK).

The T1 defeated KT Rollster and Hanwha Life e-sports with a set score 2-0 in the third round of the second round held in Roll Park in Jongno-gu, Seoul on the 30th and 2nd of last month. T1 is the only Legend Group and Rise Group in the third round.

In particular, the confrontation with Hanwha Life on the 2nd was significant. Since 2024, he has succeeded in defeating the baseline with a one -set 18: 3 win against Hanwha Life, which had been inferior to his opponent’s 3 wins and 9 losses. In the second set, he won the game by overcoming the battle. Both performance and operation were enough to prove the ‘Rolled Cup two consecutive’ teams.

As a result, the T1 pursued Hanwha Life (16 wins and 6 losses) with 15 wins and 7 losses. Zenji has already confirmed its entry into the Rolled Cup, and the T1 is looking for a ticket left based on the end of the regular season.

The T1’s ‘Trading March’ has more than just stats. The Legend Group is a fierce group with the top five teams in the regular season. In this case, ‘Tradition’ is the result of proving both hard teamwork, strong mentality and explosive hit concentration.

The key is ‘combination’. Four players except ‘Doran’ Choi Hyun -joon matched their hands and feet in 2021. As evidenced by long breathing, they show overwhelming coordination in the timing and concentration of engagement. Doran, which recently joined, is also rapidly melting, raising the synergy of the entire team.

The T1 is not just a ‘strong team’, but a ‘stronger team’. In the Rolled Cup season, it is not possible to measure combat power. They were always ‘laughing in autumn’, who played two consecutive Rolled Cups in 2023 and 2024. This year, it is slowly raising the momentum.

The desire to win at the T1 Home Ground with the home and fans is now leading to the last run for the Rolled Cup ticket. Later in the regular season and until the upcoming Rolled Cup. T1 is preparing another ‘miracle autumn’. kmg@sportsseoul.com
