Just a few hours ago, T1 and Gen.G Esports officially faced off in the finals of the LCK Spring 2022. Beyond determining the champion of this Spring season and which team will represent Korea at MSI 2022, this match was also a historic clash for both teams, the LCK, and the entire League of Legends community. T1 and Gen.G were both presented with the opportunity to write their own new chapters in this final.
As a result, just after 4 games, the highly anticipated finals of the League of Legends scene concluded with T1 taking the victory. The score of 3-1 hardly captures the excitement and intensity that this clash brought. There were moments when Gen.G had T1 fans holding their breath, such as the transformations of Chovy or Peanut despite their disadvantages, with Peanut managing to execute Oner with Smite. But in the end, Faker and his teammates claimed the historic win.
The League of Legends community naturally focused all attention on what could be considered the Super Classic of the LCK Spring 2022. The keyword “Faker wins LCK title number 10” surged to rank 7 on Weibo’s hot search list, along with countless praises from the international League of Legends community directed at T1.
However, there was also no shortage of criticism directed at the performance of Gen.G players, especially Doran. In game 4, Doran’s champion Akshan, which was selected to counter Kennen, was completely shut down right from the start of the match.
Nevertheless, T1 has rightfully claimed the throne. Tears were shed from both players and T1’s coaching staff. Coming up, their opponents will be other champions, far mightier than Gen.G, at MSI 2022. T1’s goal will still be the championship, but that journey will be much more challenging.
