What is the reason why LPL teams have never won against T1 in BO5 matches in the Global Finals in the past ten years?

SKT’s Strength Fluctuations

To put it simply, the strength of the SKT team fluctuates greatly.

During their weaker periods, they failed to qualify for the World Championship.

However, during the times when they were able to qualify, they displayed significant strength.

If you’re wondering why SKT has never lost to an LPL team in the World Championship, it can only be said that whenever SKT can be defeated by an LPL team, they struggle to even advance within the LCK.

Why is the LPL repeatedly defeating Gen.G and T1?

Why is it that the LPL always manages to defeat Gen.G, while Gen.G is consistently able to take down T1, and T1 is exceptionally fierce against the LPL?

T1’s strength is not on par with IG, and the outcome cannot change this fact.

T1’s strength is not as good as IG’s, no matter what everyone wants to say, accepted.

So what would you do when I bring out this picture?

T1 has never lost to the LPL?

Wow, that’s quite the respect for T1.

If you want to talk about SKT, I admit its three World Championships.

But if you want to talk about T1, which was later renamed, it’s really unnecessary to bring up such conditions.

What global finals, Bo5, never lost.

S8 IG, T1 didn’t even have the qualification to face them.

It’s not that T1 isn’t strong, S8 and S9 were the peak years of LPL’s strength.

Can you blame the draw if you didn’t face them? Several LCK teams got crushed by teams from LPL and LEC, so it’s not fair to blame not encountering such a situation.

At that time, IG defeated the number one seed from LCK, if T1 was strong enough, they wouldn’t have missed Worlds.

The champion pool of IG’s top and mid laners at the time were perfectly suited for the meta, it was impossible to counterpick.

The Shy and Rookie were in their prime at the time, T1 would have been crushed even if they had come.

The main issue, I think, was the meta at the time, which was very suitable for the style of LPL and LEC.

That’s why the international results of the LCK region were very dismal in those two years.

G2 in 2019, Caps, Perkz were truly impressive, they created a scene where Faker’s hands shook.

G2 was just one step away from achieving an unprecedented grand slam, but unfortunately, they fell to FPX, losing 0-3.

In that year, what capital did T1 have to defeat FPX?

Faker has been performing exceptionally well this year, take note that it’s Faker who’s exceptional.

During the summer split, T1’s performance was abysmal while he was on hiatus, the Old Man Faker had a major relapse, and Zeus turned into sushi.

Once Faker returned, the Emperor of Shurima reclaimed his throne, and his four sand soldiers immediately returned to normal.

Faker’s top-tier shotcalling ability enables T1 to strike where he commands, the synergy and coordination among the five players is incredibly high.

It all comes down to the age-old saying, “Winner takes all.”

Tomorrow is the finals, if T1 wins, say whatever you want.

If they lose, then brace yourselves for the boomerang.
