Handing over the opponent in game 1, T1 still “pleased” the victory against LSB, continuing to extend the “terrible” record

With an opponent that was judged to be weaker overall, it was as if he had run out of motivation to fight Liiv SANDBOX, T1 Heading to the first match of the last week of the group stage of the LCK Spring 2022 with the goal of extending the unbeaten record. Moreover, after a few days, they have to face DRX – an opponent that is considered to be “harder to eat”. Therefore, this confrontation can be considered as a hinge with the aim of creating a good psychological premise for T1 players before entering the historic match.

T1 enters the final week of the group stage with the prospect of writing a new history for the team and the village of League of Legends.

But real, LSB all the motivation to help the players of this team play more sublime. In game 1, T1 accepted to drop the Dragon buffs with the intention of taking advantage of the Herald and good laning to tackle the opponent early. However, LSB managed to get through a difficult period and entered the middle of the game with a very small loss compared to T1. Faker and the teammates also went in and out of the fighting not really too well. Faker’s Kai’Sa mid can no longer create surprises. Although Oner was able to steal the Elder Dragon, LSB was stronger in teamfights and suddenly took the lead after game 1 ended.

But in games 2 and 3, T1 regained the focus needed to solve the game. Faker and his teammates played very focused and had forehand champions. On the LSB side, they were almost “suffering” for most of the time of the 2 games. Although there was a time when the yellow jersey team managed to recover in game 3, but the T1 players played much better, especially the positions of Oner and Gumayusi. Faker and his teammates stifled all of LSB’s efforts, completing the comeback to raise the record for the winning streak to 17.

The opponent ahead is the difficult DRX, but with what has been shown, it can be completely believed that Faker and his teammates can completely make the “unprecedented” record in history.
