Keria: you, Zeus and Faker are what drew me to watch the LCK. I've now stuck around to watch almost all matches involving Gen G, T1, and HLE... and sometimes DPlus Kia. Y'all have built up a competitive and exciting league.. and you, Keria, in particular is always an exciting player to watch. I wish you the best of luck at Worlds and can't wait to see you, and the rest of T1, at work. T1 Fighting!
Historically, it checks out. They do ramp up at any international they play but I think it's not enough this Worlds. They need a great meta read and even more scrimms/practice to even come close to the monsters that is GENG, BLG and HLE.
T1 always ramp up for Worlds, especially against LPL teams since Faker needs to fulfil his role as father of LPL and continue to provide compulsory education to LPL players. Whether they can ramp up against LCK teams is a whole other story though
What meta? Not even players know what will be meta and picks for now. The Worlds just started and it will be changed several times. Also last year they played to counter(!) meta and because of that other teams were forced to play the same. So what exactly are u talking about?
