Famous VCS Commentator Encounters “Conflict” Over T1 – Smash – Gumayusi Drama
There are rare moments when T1 leaves its fans in confusion and frustration, as is the case currently. However, within the competitive landscape of the League of Legends community, following various statements from T1, influencers have also started to raise their voices. Recently, VCS commentator Hoang Sama encountered “conflict” due to a statement related to the T1 – Gumayusi – Smash situation.

Specifically, it seems that with the intent to have a bit of fun, the male VCS commentator wore a KT Rolster jersey, hinting at T1’s possible roster changes. However, after his post surfaced, many KT fans in Vietnam voiced their criticisms towards him. In fact, numerous comments came pouring in, expressing strong emotions.
However, the male commentator has not provided any response to the post, and as of now, the original post remains unchanged, despite ongoing discussions surrounding it.

Fan Reactions to Male VCS Commentator Could Also Put Pressure on Smash in the Future
Of course, both Smash and T1, along with KT, are likely to remain unaware of the fan reactions stemming from Vietnam. However, many discussions in this context revolve around T1’s rookie treatment in front of their seasoned rivals and the coaching staff through various clips that T1 has shared. It is clear that LCK fans also acknowledge the pressure on Smash is quite significant.

If T1 and the competition were to engage with Gumayusi, each match would likely become a culmination of Smash’s journey. Unlike the previous matchups of EasyHoon – Faker or even Clozer – Faker, before plunging into the current drama, Smash’s performance had already sparked debates during his time in the Challengers. Additionally, Rekkles once had to face accusations regarding his AD role for the current roster, claiming it “opened the floodgates”.
Considering the character dynamics, it remains uncertain how T1 intends to build Smash’s profile, but it is clear that controversies are brewing. And the persona through which this team “dares to challenge” includes none other than Faker—someone revered even by the biggest legends in Esports and other notable figures across various fields. The idea of Smash replacing Gumayusi is one issue, but the notion of “daring to compete with Faker” could still be a more significant topic.

While the future of this drama remains unclear, it can be said that the aftermath of this situation will significantly impact T1, Gumayusi, and Smash for a long time to come.
