T1
Certainly, the most “spiritual” factor mentioned is that T1 has never lost to Chinese teams at the World Final play-off. Up to now, T1 and before that SKT T1 met LPL teams in the play-off round 9 times and all won. Latest, T1 defeated the Top Esports 3-0 in the quarterfinals of Worlds 2024 to extend the winning series.
At the same time, T1 fans are also very hopefully on the home team when T1 has just defeated the BlG itself in the Swiss round 1-1. In addition, another “spiritual” factor is that all the lines between the world championship from 2013 to the present are Korean, while the BlG team is all Chinese.

Currently, BLG does not have many “spiritual” factors supporting the team to win the championship. One thing LPL fans can trust is the very good performance of Bin before T1 in the Bo5 series. Since the start of his career, Bin has never lost to T1 in the Bo5 series, including the MSI 2022 finals, the final of the MSI 2023 and the latest is twice at MSI 2024.
In addition, fans of the Chinese team can rely on the very good confrontation history of BLG before T1 to hope. As mentioned, BLG has defeated T1 in all three previous confrontations in the Bo5 series. If it is possible to continue to maintain this form in the upcoming final, BLG can fully hope for LPL's first championship with all Chinese members.
