Alongside the tournaments organized by Riot Games, ASIAD 2022 is also an event that League of Legends (LoL) fans are keenly interested in. In fact, the situation of the Korean LoL team has sparked considerable controversy recently. Simply put, many viewers believe that some T1 players, such as Zeus and Keria, no longer deserve a spot on the “national team.”
This opinion emerged during a challenging July for T1, which saw multiple defeats. The reason stemmed from Faker being forced to take a break to recover from an injury, while substitute player Poby failed to make a significant impact. Meanwhile, KT Rolster, with Kiin, Lehends, and others, performed exceptionally well during the LCK Summer Split 2023 Group Stage.
However, after T1 defeated KT Rolster in the LCK Summer Split 2023 qualifiers, the aforementioned doubts completely vanished. From KT’s perspective, viewers began to recognize Kiin’s psychological weaknesses in crucial matches. This player made several mistakes in the deciding game 5, putting himself in a difficult position.
Conversely, Zeus and Keria had an outstanding performance, helping T1 secure victory. Zeus contributed significantly to map control and engaged in fights with excellent Teleport plays. Meanwhile, Keria shone while playing engage champions like Alistar and Rell. This player has saved T1 from several losing fights with his impressive skill executions.
In summary, with a convincing performance against KT, T1 players like Zeus and Keria have demonstrated their worthiness to represent the ASIAD. If they maintain their current form, it is entirely possible for Zeus and Keria to achieve success in both the LCK Summer Split 2023 and ASIAD 2022.
