Gumayusi Faces Unique Challenges in T1’s History
In the history of League of Legends (LoL), as of now, there have only been two players in the position of AD Carry who have won the World Championship (Worlds) consecutively: Bang and Gumayusi. This achievement is incredibly difficult to surpass, and it took a long time for someone to reach that level again. Contributing to a Worlds championship is hard enough; it requires not only talent but also the ability to perform under pressure multiple times, and winning back-to-back titles is even more challenging. Despite their glorious achievements, Gumayusi has another significant challenge ahead: winning the MSI championship two consecutive times.
Recently, during a stream, Bang shared about the achievements of his younger teammate: “It’s amazing that Min-hyung (Gumayusi’s real name) and I have won the Worlds championship twice in a row, right? It’s just the two of us. And now, Min-hyung has also achieved the feat of winning the MSI championship twice in a row. While wearing the T1 jersey, let’s make history and surpass what we have done.”
This Reality Poses Unique Challenges for Gumayusi and T1
However, while MSI may not carry the same weight as the Worlds in terms of prestige, it is still a significant tournament that can be seen as a stepping stone. The reason is that the matches at MSI are between the top teams from various regions, and it is a tough competition that can influence strategies significantly.
Previously, the Worlds often garners significant attention from fans and teams aiming for the championship, making MSI a platform where teams can gauge their capabilities and refine their strategies. This is why it is not uncommon for teams to face unexpected challenges that can lead to surprising outcomes. For example, T1 in 2022 faced a painful defeat against RNG, which occurred during a period when they were under significant pressure.
