In the final match of Week 8 LCK Summer 2024, T1 won 2-0 against the last team of Brion. This is a victory for the defending world champion to end the 2-defeat series, especially the last 0-2 defeat against NS Redforce.
However, after the match, the T1's Oner player shared that the T1 squad also had Covid-19 people, not just Faker. The World Champion 2023 shared on Sports Seoul: “We are infected with Covid-19 but all members of the team are now okay.”
“I am also very sorry to fans. In fact, this is really difficult when fans are very enthusiastic and always support us, but I can only apologize. I know how much fans have supported us and I will definitely respond to them with good results.”
Besides, Oner also confirmed that the team is not good, but T1's jungler still does not show anxiety and believes that he will show well in the play-off. The reason for the decrease in the form given by Oner may be because T1 was too confident, and the team did not grasp the tactics after returning from the Esports World Cup.
Currently, T1 is ranked 4th on the LCK Summer 2024 rankings with a record of 9 – 7 losses. However, this achievement has not guaranteed ONER and his teammates to participate in the play-off round. In the last week of the group stage, T1 will face the two teams who are also “fighting” for the play-off performance, Kwangdong Freecs and Fearx. Just win 1 in these two matches, T1 will definitely appear in the play-off round and almost grasped the 4th position on the rankings.
