Related Updates on T1 Facing Criticism Within a Day
On May 15th, a significant day brought unexpected twists for fans. It was not only the T1 team that faced challenges against the bottom group represented by OKSavingsBank BRION, but also the team facing a long losing streak – Hanwha Life Esports – unexpectedly performed better than KT Rolster, who were considered a stronger contender. Just a week ago, KT was in a dire situation and few dared to believe they could defeat HLE. Despite differing outcomes in these matches, both T1 and HLE received substantial criticism regarding key players: Zeus and Doran.
According to reports, Zeus had a match that left much to be desired. Many fans were disappointed with Zeus’s performance against PerfecT. The KT team had a season that was less than stellar and he was even demoted to the Challengers league. However, in a surprising turn, PerfecT executed a flawless performance while Zeus struggled, contributing to HLE’s victory. Furthermore, his Ambessa was a key point that led HLE to win in a decisive match.
As for Doran, his second match against OKBRO was marked as his “moment of despair” and that of T1 fans. Before the main team T1 was launched, Doran had a record of 1 win and 7 losses. There were even fans who expressed their frustration, saying, “1-7 from a top laner fighting against teams at the bottom of the standings? If you cover the names, you wouldn’t know who was OKBRO and who was T1.” Additionally, there have been concerns about Doran’s ability to maintain T1’s championship title in the 2025 season if he continues to perform like this.
T1 and HLE Both Under Heavy Criticism
For those who have followed HLE and T1 for many years, it can be noted that both teams are quite strong, yet they do not consistently perform well. If we consider Gen.G as the benchmark, then the MSI 2024 champions could dominate this season entirely. HLE and T1 are two teams that only need a pivotal moment to completely change the game on the battlefield. However, at times, both teams fail to show a clear edge in their matches.
Therefore, the upcoming matches between these two teams are expected to be very competitive and exciting. The only issue is that if the pivotal moments do not appear, no one can predict whether T1 or HLE will secure any titles.
