Faker made a surprising move in the context of the tense T1 – Gumayusi drama
It was thought that a victory against KT Rolster would open a smooth week of competition for T1 before entering the 2025 Lunar New Year holiday. However, the unannounced substitution drama of T1 drowned out all the highlights of the “big” match. media war”. In this context, the reaction of insiders is of great interest, especially if it comes from the “GOAT of League of Legends” and also the captain of T1 – Faker.
Faker also made a move amid the climax of the T1 – Gumayusi drama.
Accordingly, in T1's Membership, a fan posted a post with the purpose of sharing his long and extremely expensive journey from the province to Seoul to watch T1 and Gumayusi compete. This person claimed to be a fan of Gunner born in 2002 and said he felt extremely disappointed when he arrived and was told that his idol would not compete.
Although this fan later deleted the post himself, and also affirmed that he had no intention of criticizing T1 or the upper management, the disappointment was clearly evident. Notably, Faker hearted some community comments expressing sympathy for this fan. Faker released his heart twice, so many fans believe that this is a proactive action by the T1 captain.
Fans discovered that Faker dropped his heart twice for 1 comment expressing sympathy for a fan who had to travel a long way but could not meet Gumayusi.
T1 needs to soon resolve the issues before the upcoming match of LCK Cup 2025
At the present time, while T1's silence makes fans uncomfortable, Smash or Gumayusi accidentally become “victims”. Smash's perfect debut seemed to have been completely submerged when on the forums, controversies about T1 and Gumayusi “took over”.
Drama also accidentally made Smash's performance completely sink.
T1's move is probably really unfair to T1, Gumayusi and especially Smash fans. And perhaps, T1 must soon have a clear announcement before the match on upcoming Sunday, before fans' trust gradually becomes depleted.
