Gumayusi once made a statement that seemed to predict his future at T1
Currently, it might be another tough challenge for Gumayusi as the 2002-born AD Carry has become the center of conversation due to sitting on the bench for two consecutive games. While there could be many reasons behind this, Gumayusi and T1 have found themselves in an unnecessary drama. However, fans discovered that Gumayusi actually “predicted” this situation back in the early days of officially becoming part of T1’s main team.
Specifically, about two years ago, Gumayusi made a notable comment: “Even if you become a champion, that championship does not necessarily earn you the right evaluation from everyone. It’s not entirely meaningless, but even if you win a championship, just having a poor performance in a season can make you completely worthless.”
Coincidentally, Gumayusi’s current situation seems to resonate with his words. Notably, Gumayusi hasn’t even been performing poorly at the ongoing LCK Cup 2025.
This could be a challenge for Gumayusi to affirm his position at T1
Like some positive cases that T1 fans have noted, this could be the final challenge for Gumayusi to prove his mettle and establish his position as a visual successor to Faker in the future. He must realize one thing: no one is certain except Faker, and Gumayusi must be ready to overcome everything if he wants to become T1’s leader in the future.
The “gem” Gumayusi is no longer rough like he was a few years ago. However, to truly become a diamond like Faker, the “Prince” still has many challenges ahead, and he must overcome them himself.
