According to information from LCK, T1 may have finalized their roster in this year-end transfer window.
While members like Keria and Oner have been informed by T1 about contract extensions in the year-end 2024 transfer window, the equally important duo of Gumayusi and Zeus has been somewhat “quiet.” From a position of certainty regarding the future of the home team players, many T1 fans are starting to feel anxious. Everyone understands that these players, if available, would have numerous teams willing to recruit them with sky-high benefits.
However, recently, according to some information from LCK, T1 has now secured the future of the duo Zeus – Gumayusi. Currently, the team is just waiting for Riot’s approval to announce it. Additionally, the source confirmed: “It would be unreasonable to think that Gumayusi is leaving T1.”
In reality, Zeus’s situation is more concerning as there have been reports that during his contract signing a few years ago, the 2004-born player wanted to assess his market value in the transfer window. Moreover, his status has changed now. Zeus wanting to think things over is not too surprising.
GAM Player Sparks Controversy Following VCS Champion’s Transfer News
After news broke that GAM Esports successfully recruited Aress and Artemis, a player from GAM became a topic of controversy. Specifically, Emo sparked discussion as he was once considered to be significantly better than Aress during the Summer Split. But now, GAM has recruited the former TS star. Therefore, Emo’s position will face fierce competition.
Many VCS viewers believe that Emo is currently demonstrating good abilities simply because GAM, especially his two senior teammates Kiaya and Levi, have created favorable conditions. In fact, this is substantiated as the GAM Top-Jungle duo has almost completely outperformed the rest of the VCS. Meanwhile, Aress has shown his capabilities while wearing the TS jersey.
If Emo is not careful, losing his position to Aress is entirely possible. Furthermore, although GAM has explained that strengthening the roster is preparation for the Fearless Draft, in reality, the most important tournaments still use the normal pick-ban method.
