Key Developments in the Ongoing “Drama” of T1 – Gumayusi and the Unfortunate Incident with the Coaching Staff
Recently, fans of T1 and the community of League of Legends have been continuously discussing the latest updates surrounding the drama involving T1 – Gumayusi – Smash. There has been a significant amount of public opinion regarding the issues of T1’s coaching staff and the rotations of the team. However, recent developments have led many to criticize T1.
Moreover, the head coach of Smash at the Challengers League has confirmed that Smash has indeed been promoted to compete against Gumayusi’s main roster.
Furthermore, regarding the coaching situation of T1 Challengers – GBM mentioned that the promotion of Smash unexpectedly affected the T1 Challengers roster, which is no longer under the guidance of Xạ Thủ. The current mid-laner Guti is reportedly stepping in.
However, GBM’s confirmation inadvertently turned T1’s coaching staff into a “punching bag.” After receiving backlash from fans due to the unexpected replacement, T1’s head coach KkOma stated that the rotation of players was to “collect data.” Nevertheless, all discussions following this have included the fact that Gumayusi has not had proper scrimmages, and the current Xạ Thủ is about to face the remaining matches of the LCK Cup, with GBM’s latest statements further complicating the situation from T1’s perspective.
Not Just T1 Fans, the League of Legends Community Also Feels the Tension
Up to this point, even non-T1 fans are struggling to understand the actions of T1’s coaching staff. Additionally, the confirmation of Smash competing against Gumayusi has led to the main team releasing clips showcasing Smash ready to “challenge” Faker. The tension has only escalated as both teams continue to raise the stakes surrounding T1.
As the regular season approaches, T1’s performance may significantly influence the ongoing situation if it continues to drag on. If things continue as they are, only the players and T1 fans will be the “victims” in this narrative.
