Gumayusi Speaks to Encourage T1 Fans
The loss to Gen.G, while not enough to eliminate T1, has certainly left the fans of this team worried. The manner of T1’s defeat was truly disheartening, and perhaps the fans sensed something ominous right from the end of the draft phase. In this context, the T1 fans need encouragement, and Gumayusi is the player who can provide that.
In a post-match interview, Gumayusi candidly shared: “I think the important thing is that from now on, we will be playing BO3. For us, the BO3 or BO5 format is more advantageous compared to BO1. In this regard, I believe we are very confident. Firstly, since there’s still some time before the next match, I think we should take advantage of this time to maintain our spirit and practice even harder. Regarding confidence, I believe it will come naturally when we find our victories again.”
Gumayusi’s confidence may be the rare support for T1 fans during this time. In past matches, Gumayusi has also delivered strong performances. In fact, many believe he should have been chosen as MVP in the match against IG. In the recent match against Gen.G, Gumayusi also put in a lot of effort, but it wasn’t enough to help T1 secure a victory.
The Bot Lane Duo of Gumayusi and Keria Will Continue to Be a Major Hope for T1 in Upcoming Matches
Given the current meta focusing heavily on ADCs, along with the diverse champion pool of Gumayusi and Keria compared to their top lane teammates, this duo will still be a cornerstone of hope for T1’s victories.
However, T1 must also allocate enough resources for their core players and ensure that the match does not slip out of control. Because when the game is out of hand, Gumayusi will find it difficult to make an impact, especially when T1’s direct opponents have very strong AD carries as well.
