The semifinal match between Weibo Gaming and BLG will occur on 11 November (Saturday), at 4 P.M. But nothing is ever final, and should T1 overcome their obstacles, keep their current form, stay grounded, and surprise their opponents again in the drafting phase, they just might keep the hope of their nation alive and prevent an LCK-less Grand Final in the home of the LCK. My heart says T1, but my head says JDG may possibly take this one. They only need to capitalise on one mistake to take over the game, so even if their opponents are ahead, the game is never over until a team’s Nexus is destroyed. JDG also usually remain composed even when they’re playing from behind. Most particularly, Park "Ruler" Jae-hyuk is like a machine gun, being able to save a lot of team fights with his clutch moves and firepower. Meanwhile, JDG’s coordination is stellar, and even if other teams try to set them back, they can make a comeback through the smallest of details. However, T1’s playmaking isn’t flawless-they have the tendency to get overexcited in certain matches, or and have admitted to having miscommunication when executing team fights.Įveryone also knows about T1’s quintessential Baron priority-something that opponents have used a lot of times against them.īut according to T1’s video released last week named ” Cogwheel”, T1 are aware of their weaknesses and have been working to make their communication and synergy even better. Currently, their coaches are able to come up with the most ridiculous combinations that leave the opponent flabbergasted.Īll members of their team are able to execute the most breathtaking maneuvres, and they also have the LoL G.O.A.T., Lee “Faker” Sang-hyeok, who seems to be the glue that holds the team together. T1’s strength lie in their ability to surprise their opponents. Should they execute their playmaking flawlessly and pull off more surprises at the semifinals, they can deny JDG the golden road.(Photo: Riot Games) T1 continue to ramp up as the competition intensifies, and they have the LoL king, Faker. It would be difficult to only consider player statistics for JDG and T1, especially since their members are topping the KDA charts (with mostly T1 on top). T1 stunned LPL’s second-strongest team in the quarterfinals, catching them off guard with off-meta curveballs in the drafts, resulting in a 3-0 sweep. They were then able to exact revenge on BLG in a 2-0 sweep to make it to the Playoffs. Meanwhile, T1 struggled throughout the LCK Summer Season when Faker injured his arm but bounced back after his return to qualify for Worlds.Īt Worlds, T1 only dropped a game against Gen.G in Round 2 and defeated Team Liquid and Cloud9 in Rounds 1 and 3. In the end, JD Gaming still prevailed, winning the match 3-1. Instead, the South Korean team stunned everyone, fighting tooth and nail against the LPL giants. They also breezed through the Swiss Stage at Worlds, quickly winning rounds 1-3 against BDS, BLG, and LNG Esports to be one of the first teams to qualify for the Playoffs.Įveryone expected JD Gaming to easily breeze through the quarterfinals against KT Rolster. JDG has won all four championships this year: two LPL championships and the MSI title. If they continue to play flawlessly and calmly, they should make it to the Grand Finals. JDG are still looking to complete the golden road.
