The Locker Room is an intriguing vlog series produced by T1, featuring behind-the-scenes stories of the team members. In the latest episode, T1 fans witnessed some interesting images from backstage, one of which was the “spiritual” story of Coach Moment.
Specifically, according to revelations in The Locker Room, during the preparation period before the first Playoffs match against Liiv SANDBOX, when the players had already stepped onto the stage and only Director Polt and Coach Moment remained in the waiting room, Faker’s coach seemed unsure or maybe just to be “sure” decided to use an online horoscope app to check… the match results.
“Let me see how our team’s luck is today. Our fate… Let’s cast a fortune to see if everyone will be lucky today. This man. Let’s calculate according to the solar calendar. But I don’t know the birth time either. This (fortune-telling app) requires drawing a picture with just one continuous line. It says today’s luck is very prosperous, preparing for a big win.”
And who knows if the “fortune-telling” was effective or not, but indeed that day, T1 achieved a resounding victory with a score of 3-0 against Liiv SANDBOX, despite having lost to this team in both matches of the group stage.
The fact is that the aforementioned story occurred when the players and head coach Stardust had already gone on stage, meaning that tactical issues or morale-boosting had already been settled, leaving only Coach Moment and Director Polt available in the waiting room to take the opportunity to check fortunes online.
However, the “spiritual” story of these two still made netizens “laugh out loud”. Everyone knows that Moment is currently the main strategist for the entire team, yet as soon as his students left, this coach had to rely on “fortune-telling” to self-soothe his spirits.
Up to now, the management team and new coaching staff of T1 have been performing their duties and roles very well. The effective operation of the duo Stardust – Moment along with Director Polt is the main reason that T1 players regained their form and reached the LCK Summer Finals 2021, along with a ticket to the 2021 World Championship.
In another noteworthy move, the “spiritual” factor continues to support T1, as the two “predictors” are casters Hoang Luan and CloudTemplar, both predicting that DWG KIA will win in the upcoming Finals.
