T1 LCK Woes Continue Despite Keria’s Best Efforts
T1, the reigning League of Legends World Champions, suffered another loss in the LCK as they fell 2-1 to Dplus Kia. Despite winning three consecutive international World Championship titles, T1 finds themselves struggling with a 2-3 record and tied for sixth place, barely securing a playoff position.
The loss underscored T1’s inconsistency issues this season. In the opening game, jungler Oner repeatedly attempted top lane ganks to support top laner Doran but failed to capitalize on multiple opportunities. In one notable instance, DK’s Siwoo barely escaped with just 24 health remaining. Meanwhile, T1’s bottom lane performance struggled significantly, with ADC Peyz repeatedly getting dived under his turret as Dplus Kia built and maintained a substantial early lead.
Despite support player Keria’s efforts to maintain T1’s competitiveness, the team continues to show concerning inconsistency. Their regular season struggles represent a marked departure from their dominant international performances, raising questions about their ability to defend their world champion status and secure better playoff seeding as the season progresses.
