This was an important victory for not only the LCK but for T1 too. After what was a disappointing performance in the LCK grand finals, T1 needed to put on a clinic today if they were going to start to turn the heads of not only their fanbase but the broader LoLEsports community.

Outside of an aggressive early game from MAD in game one, it was smooth sailing for the LCK representatives. It appeared as if T1 had figured out their opponents despite the rough early game in game number one. Lee "Gumayusi" Min-hyeong had an exceptional performance throughout the series and showcased to the world that he is still one of the top ADCs going into the remainder of the MSI bracket.
