After GEN defeated HLE 3-1 to advance to the final Spring Finals, they are also confirmed to be the LCK's representative team to participate in MSI this year, while the other team will also be selected in the three teams of HLE, DK and T1. T1 were previously swept 3-0 by HLE and dropped into the lower bracket, so for T1, the next games will not be a place to lose, and if they lose any of them, they will leave the playoff stage and lose the opportunity to go to the 2024MSI Midseason, and the first thing they need to deal with is DK.
DK has played five games with his opponent in the past two BO5 games, although there are losses and wins, but this kind of game is often very training for players, especially for newcomers, it is a kind of game rhythm that is hard to meet. Of course, after T1's 3-0 defeat to HLE, they were very uncomfortable preparing for the tournament because of their training environment, and they had to win it today against DK.
In the first game, T1 once again came up with a scientific research system, and the keia player Qinggang Shadow assisted, and played a good effect on the line in the early stage, but their obsession with the card system also made their upper road a lot of targets in the early stage, so the several waves of team battles in the middle did not play the desired effect, Gumayusi was also seconds several times in the team battle, although the head was behind, but the economy did not lag behind, and finally in the 30-minute wave of the river group, DK caught the three of Shimonosuke, and as a result, lucid was seconds because he broke too deep, and with the follow-up Faker and zeus support arrived, T1 completed a wave of 1-for-5 team annihilation to win the dragon,This wave of team battles T1 is finally playing the essence of the card system,Carrying the big dragon buff,T1 successfully won the first game after completing the 1-for-5 group elimination DK again in the lower lane.。
Expand the game around the road, this may be T1's understanding of this version, so in the second game, they decisively gave zeus a very risky hero, the top laner Wayne, the past Theshy's game screen is still fresh in our memory, for Wayne, he plays all the current top single tanks, especially the supermodel hero like Quisanti, is definitely a good hand, but the premise is that the development is smooth.
In the early stage, the two sides also launched the upper middle field 3V3 around the upper road, 2 for 2 and then each pulled away, but Wayne got the kill, which gave him a greater advantage against Quisanti on the upper road, although DK found a few waves of opportunities in the middle of the road, but has not been able to reverse the situation, but zeus This Wei is too scary, three shots past, crispy skin died directly, even if it was Quisanti, he couldn't bear him a few times, so T1 was also comfortable in the follow-up big dragon pull, easily won the big dragon, this wave of big dragon buff also helped T1 expand the economic gap to more than 10,000, and finally after winning the second big dragon, T1 pushed three ways and won the match point game。
However, when it came to the third game, T1 selected this lineup at that time was simply walking a tightrope, the overall front and middle stage, and the body was very brittle, thanks to the fact that there was no hard tank front row on the opposite side, which also gave them room to play this combination, but the early zeus card was targeted after a few waves, and the sound was also very small, and the lower road was also killed by the line, T1 can be said to be a big disadvantage in the early stage, and the damage in the middle is also due to lack of development to keep up, DK also determined the advantage after a wave of 0 for 3. However, in the middle of the game, DK made a fatal mistake again, Kingen Rambo was singled out by the second, T1 played 0 for 3 and then closed the dragon, and then the situation was completely reversed to T1, although there was a wave of T1 retreat in time and 4 people were killed, but in the end, in the Dragon Soul Regiment, oner went deep into the enemy formation to grab the dragon, and then killed DK in the field, Faker showed TP around, and after strangling the two again, only ShowMaker's DK was gone.
The series was won 3-0, which was indeed unexpected by many, as T1 did have a poor performance against HLE, and after just a few days of adjustment, they also seem to have found the answer to their current version, and of course, the biggest test for them is the game against HLE on April 13.
The winner heads to the finals and gets their MSI tickets, and the loser gets the whole spring season to waste, making it a series that can't be lost for both T1 and HLE.
