Gumayusi Shares His Full Feelings About the Difficult Phase of 2025 with T1
For the League of Legends community, it is rare to see such a peculiar and controversial case that nonetheless evokes a sense of unresolved emotion like Gumayusi – T1 during the 2025 season. Recently, on the eve of the new season, Gumayusi held an interview to share a comprehensive perspective and his feelings during the 2025 season, especially when he was benched.
Accordingly, Gumayusi recently admitted: “Actually, I didn’t think about this situation at all. Because no one who has just won the World Championship twice in a row would be on the bench. At that time, I really doubted myself. In the beginning, I couldn’t even sleep and had to undergo psychological therapy. There were days I practiced until the morning and then returned to the dorm. When the team went to compete, it didn’t matter whether I went or not. But I said, ‘I want to go too.’ Initially, I was very sad, but I tried to adapt. When the whole team received feedback, I listened as well.”
With these new insights, which can be considered Gumayusi’s most comprehensive version of the incident with T1, and perhaps the last time he will mention this matter in the media, it is evident that the issues faced by the former T1 star were more serious than many thought. Many of Gumayusi’s fans also expressed their heartbreak over what the 2025 World Championship MVP has endured during the 2025 season.

Gumayusi’s New Season Will Still Be Challenging, But the Pressure May Have Lessened
Certainly, at HLE, no one will push Gumayusi to the bench, and there will be no more flower wreaths or trucks in front of the players’ dormitory. But the challenges for Gumayusi in terms of professional performance remain intact. The only difference is that, when it comes to pure professionalism, the three-time World Championship-winning AD Carry has never been afraid of anyone.
