BLG’s “Unbelievable” Performance Against T1
It can be said that it has been a long time since the global League of Legends community witnessed such a thrilling and intense final match, going down to the wire, as the recent showdown between Bilibili Gaming and T1. Both teams played excellently. However, in a high-stakes League of Legends match, even a small mistake can push the entire game out of control. BLG played well, but T1 won because they played better. Nevertheless, the LPL representative also managed to achieve an “unprecedented” record in League of Legends history that even the “king” T1 had never accomplished.
BLG had a World Championship full of regrets.
Specifically, BLG is the only team in League of Legends history to achieve all 5 First Bloods in 5 games of a World Championship final but ultimately could not claim the title. Notably, in these 5 games, there was one where BLG was completely devastated from start to finish. It can be said that this record would be extremely glorious if BLG had won the championship. The only thing is, everything stopped after the word “if.”
They are the only team to have secured First Blood in all 5 games of a World Championship final but then lost overall.
But It Deepens BLG’s “Pain”
As mentioned, BLG’s achievement becomes particularly significant because in the end, they are the team that lost overall. This will undoubtedly amplify the regret felt by the players, LPL fans, and especially BLG supporters. They played very well, but what they themselves might not have expected, along with a large part of the League of Legends community, was that Faker had an absolutely fantastic day and the T1 stars were just too outstanding.
BLG can hold their head high leaving the tournament as they only lost to an exceptional T1.
And many viewers have also admitted that if it weren’t for T1, perhaps BLG would not have faced such a painful defeat. The LPL representative left the tournament with their heads held high and if in the future, after this season concludes, BLG can maintain their current roster along with all players performing at their peak, the possibility of them reaching the pinnacle of glory will be entirely feasible.
