T1’s transfer deal attracts special attention from LCS fans
These days, it seems every team is rushing to finalize their roster for the new season. In a recent development, another former player is returning to his “old home” T1. None other than Piglet – the legendary ADC of LCK. He will become the coach for T1 Academy.
Many fans may currently find Piglet a bit unfamiliar. The former SKT T1 star is known for his unpredictable and unconventional playstyle, which sometimes puts the whole team in a difficult position. However, with his talent, Piglet could turn that choice into a “team-carrying” ace. Additionally, he is famous for his smirk after dodging Ryu’s Explosive Cask with Gragas.
However, T1’s deal has particularly caught the attention of LCS fans. Many fans have directly mentioned IWDominate – the famous North American League of Legends streamer. For those who don’t know, he is a former teammate of Piglet and is quite upset with the former SKT T1 star. Many Team Liquid fans also dislike, if not outright hate, Piglet.
According to many long-time League of Legends viewers, Piglet is mostly disliked due to his oversized ego. One of his comfort champions is Vayne. However, this champion doesn’t always work effectively. The problem is that sometimes Piglet locks in Vayne regardless of the team’s strategy. Coupled with the fact that TL was not performing well at that time, the former SKT T1 star inadvertently became a “scapegoat” for the criticisms from fans of this team.
T1 seems to have completed its roster for the new season
At this point, with Piglet’s joining, T1 has basically completed its preparations for the new season. The players are also settled in, and Keria has returned after mandatory training. Therefore, it is almost certain that there will be no more transfer shocks related to this team in the near future.
In this transfer season, T1 only changed positions in the coaching staff (Mata joined) and Top Lane (Doran replaced Zeus). But these are key positions, and fans are eagerly looking forward to seeing this T1 lineup compete in the near future.
