Gumayusi’s Significant Contribution Helps T1 Achieve a Crucial Milestone
Prior to the match between T1 and BLG, few could have anticipated that T1 would secure a convincing 3-0 victory. Some pessimistic fans even speculated that T1 might fall to BLG, especially after Faker and his teammates had struggled against CFO. However, the outcome was a complete turnaround, as T1 swept BLG in all three games, achieving a decisive 3-0 win. Notably, Gumayusi was named MVP for games 2 and 3, while game 1 was attributed to Faker.
This victory not only marks a significant win for T1 but also represents a pivotal moment in their journey towards the World Championship. It effectively “shut down” a losing streak against BLG that had persisted since the MSI stage. In the two international tournaments T1 has participated in, Gumayusi has stood out as a key player, helping the team overcome difficult challenges. Previously, at the 2024 World Championship, T1 ended their losing streak against Gen.G. At that time, Gumayusi was also awarded MVP.
Furthermore, during the match against BLG, Gumayusi had to endure two falls in the third game, while BLG was relentless in their pursuit to thwart him. It can be said that T1 fought BLG with the highest level of strategy, and Gumayusi consistently outperformed.
T1 is Proving Their Potential for the MSI 2025 Title
Looking ahead, T1 is set to face Gen.G, a team currently on a long winning streak since the start of the 2025 Regular Season. However, based on their recent performances, T1 has the confidence to compete strongly against Gen.G.
This upcoming match is set to be a “final showdown” between the two teams. Regardless of whether T1 or Gen.G wins, the outcome of this match will significantly influence their chances of securing the MSI 2025 championship.
