Interviewer: Why do you think T1 is playing better in Round 2?

Keria: T1 always underperforms in Round 1 because we start practice later than other teams. That's why when we struggled again this year, I knew that we would bounce back and catch up to the other teams as time went on; and we are. Our individual skill and team synergy are steadily improving.

It's generally understood that T1 start practice later than other teams due to their busy schedule: T1 and LCK sponsor obligations, ads, streaming, fan events, and so on.

Faker has additional miscellaneous obligations such as writing and giving speeches for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and UNICEF, which take away more of his time.

Clid complained about this in 2020 when he left T1 to join GENG. He said he wanted to join a team that would let him focus solely on the game.

T1 made changes to alleviate these issues starting 2022: stream flexibility, less streams during playoffs, no KeSPA cup (except this year because of Asian Games evaluation), no obligations during Worlds, etc. You'll find interviews from Joe Marsh, Polt, and Faker during this period where they heavily emphasize structural changes and cultivating a better environment for the players to focus.

Ultimately, T1 is a business and have operating costs. It's unreasonable to expect them to get rid of all player obligations. So, these issues remain, and are unique to T1.

It also means they will continue to underperform / have a "warm-up period" in-between tournaments, which should be understood to be the norm for T1. I think it would be good if casters and T1 fans keep this in mind when overreacting and evaluating their performance going forward.

RIP Dorat.

MYFRAUD gets a lot of hate for co-streaming but I feel like the things he does in terms of draft analysis and jungle pathing is so much better than what the broadcast does. Maybe it's just me but when I first started watching League, I watched the LEC broadcast and I felt like whatever they were saying didn't really make sense, or just gibberish. But watching Caedrel made me understand why champs were being picked, and the downside of them or during the game if the path the jungler took is good and is there a better way of doing it. All in all I think that Caedrel is an amazing addition to League and if he leaves. League is cooked.
