T1 set an extremely difficult record against TES
T1 entered the match with Top Esports in a 50-50 mood from the audience. Because, T1's only loss at Worlds this year so far was against TES in the Swiss round. However, in this rematch, T1's “LPL's Slayer” passive spoke up again. It was not difficult for them to convincingly overcome the representative of Chinese League of Legends with the score
In particular, in game 2 of the match, T1 even had a “clean” win without losing any kills. This is truly a “huge” achievement for T1 if you look at TES's squad (including Viego, Galio, Sylas, Ezreal) who are all extremely strong close-up champions and have killer skill sets. It can be said that the game showed the most perfection of T1, both in terms of macro, skills and control of the game.
T1 sent a “war letter” to Gen.G
T1's victory is not only meaningful in terms of results, but can be seen as a “warning” to all of their remaining opponents at Worlds 2024. In particular, this can be seen as a “war note”. ” to Gen.G – the team with the most “easy” match in the Quarterfinals. It would be difficult to imagine that Gen.G could lose against FlyQuest. Therefore, T1's victory is also a “message” sent to the defending champion MSI in the Semifinals.
In addition, T1's picks and bans show that the 2023 version is gradually returning. Of course, T1 still cannot be subjective when Gen.G is a much stronger opponent than them, having defeated them 10 times in a row. Therefore, perhaps the Semi-finals can be considered an “early final” and the team that wins will have a great chance of winning the championship.
