After the end of the S11 qualifiers, the LCK and LPL divisions have entered a short rest period, according to the LOL Global Finals rules, RNG, EDG, FPX, T1, DK, GEN directly advanced to the group stage of the top 16, while the fourth seed LNG and HLE need to pass the test of the finals to meet the team in the division group stage, and now the strong duel is coming, the eight teams mentioned above are fully prepared for the S11 finals, with "LOL first person" Faker Lee Sang-hyuk's T1 is one of them.
Looking at the entire LOL professional arena, T1 (formerly SKT) is undoubtedly the most existential giant, since the establishment of the team, they have won the LOL world-class event championship five times, and nine LCK league championships, placed in the base of more than ten trophies, enough to show how strong T1's former dominance of the field, e-sports with results, this is the T1 star Faker Lee Sang-hyuk is known as the "lol first person" the direct reason.
Since the beginning of the S8 season, the giants T1 have been in a period of throes, not only in the league's dominance declined, but also missed the S10 Global Finals that landed at the home of the LPL. In the S11 season, Li Ge Faker led the T1 counterattack, with the summer runner-up results to advance to the world, before the arrival of the group stage, as the T1 captain and main single Faker Lee Sang Hyuk was interviewed by LCK media to listen to the veteran's voice.
People often say that "e-sports is a bowl of youth rice", the 26-year-old Fake Lee Sang-hyuk is no longer young, he attaches great importance to this opportunity, facing the LCK media, Faker admitted: For me, this is not a often opportunity, so I will do my best to fight for (championship), I really very much desire S championship, on the stage of the world championship, research, analysis (version of strong) heroes is particularly critical, we need to think more.
Different from previous years, Xia Zhi T1 reused the new generation of players, in addition to the gold medal assistant Keria, there are also Little Lü bu Gumayusi, the new generation of Tatsuno Oner, as the T1 captain Fake how to solve the problem of the lack of experience of newcomers? Brother Li said frankly: If there are external problems that affect the game, then I, as the captain, must grasp the center, and for T1, the game experience of direct participation (playing the finals) is very good, but it is also useful to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.
At the end of the interview, T1 Captain Faker did not forget to speak out in support of his old rival LPL, and the reason given was irrefutable: I wanted to play the LPL team the most when I participated in this global finals, because the LPL is competitive and the LPL team style is very offensive, in my opinion, the collision with the LPL team will be very interesting.
Stepping into the world, Faker has led the team against the LPL team again and again, and frequently won, defeating many strong teams including EDG and RNG, and so far no LPL team has eliminated the former on the stage of the S competition, which is the direct reason why Faker and T1 (former SKT) are called "LPL nemesis".
Faker is true, the style of the LPL division is indeed very offensive, after entering the Summoner Canyon, the LPL team will often launch an attack around the upper half of the district, tearing apart the opponent's defense line through small-scale team battles, if T1 and the LPL team fight, the full "gunpowder smell" will indeed not disappoint the audience, so which LPL team do you most want to meet Faker and T1?
