Fans Look Back and Discover Zeus’s “Strange” Actions
After the latest statements from Hanwha Life Esports regarding the T1 – Zeus situation were released, this drama once again sparked intense debates within the community. While the global League of Legends community was divided into various opposing opinions, many T1 fans discovered that Zeus had “outplayed” them with what seemed like a normal action right after the 2024 World Championship ended.
Specifically, just a few days after the whole team returned from London, while still on a break, Zeus was the first player to stream and interact with fans outside of T1’s schedule. Many fans found this quite unusual since “he’s not the type to suddenly stream like Gumayusi or Keria.”
In fact, many fans at that time thought this was a sign that Zeus would stay with T1. During the stream, he revealed no future plans, only sharing his journey so far at Worlds with T1 and even talking about the fines for being late or violating T1’s rules and plans for using that money. The player born in 2004 also promised, “I will see you all again soon.”
Fans Upset About Zeus’s Actions
Clearly, seeking a destination that fulfills one’s wishes is understandable. But the way Zeus left is what sparked controversy. In fact, his “unscheduled livestream” with statements that drew a lot of donations led many fans to criticize him as “trying to milk money from fans one last time.”
“My thought at that time was that at least the Top Laner (Zeus) would re-sign. Just had to worry about the others. Now…,” one fan admitted. Another viewer said, “Zeus never streams off-schedule like that. Fans were overjoyed thinking this kid would re-sign. What angers me the most is that I also donated that day.”
Of course, the important thing is still how Zeus has shed everything to leave. And perhaps at this moment, he is the player making T1 fans the angriest due to his ambiguity.
