League of Legends Korean Professional League T1 wins four games in a row and ends the first round of the round-robin tournament

T1 finished strongly in the first round of the three-game round-robin tournament of the League of Legends Korea (LCK) Summer Split, securing their top spot with a perfect record of four games.

They defeated Gen.G, Nongshim RedForce, and KT Rolster in quick succession, and on August 2nd, they defeated Hanwha Life Esports, demonstrating their current world-class competitive form. Bottom laner Gumayusi was named MVP of the series for his consistent damage output and clutch teamfight performances.

In the first game between T1 and Hanwha Life Esports, the two teams were evenly matched in the early stages, until T1's bottom lane combination of Gumayusi and Keria, who played Jhin and Bard respectively, established a rhythm and gradually took control of the situation.

Doran in the top lane used Gwen to gradually expand his advantage. The cooperation between Faker in the middle lane and jungler Oner also became the key to victory or defeat. The operation of killing the mid laner Orianna with a flash, taunt and combo was a classic.

The second game was originally completely dominated by T1, with an economic lead of over 6200, but a wrong decision on Baron gave Hanwha Life the opportunity to counterattack. Viper's Samira dealt high damage in the team battle and led the team to overtake at one point.

However, after a fierce battle lasting 39 minutes, T1 won the final team battle at the enemy's main crystal with stronger execution and won 2-0.

Although it was a good thing for T1 to win the victory quickly, it was also a bit regrettable for the audience. After all, no matter what the result was, they all hoped to see these two Korean powerhouses have a wonderful third game showdown.
