T1 have turned off the lights on the LPL’s last hope, Top Esports, convincingly defeating them by 3-0 to secure a spot in their fourth consecutive League of Legends Worlds final.
Both teams started with strong macro plays, securing objectives for their sides but focusing on scaling in the traditional Korean style of League. While TES focused on getting their Akali ahead, Faker’s Orianna kept finding plays to shut the Chinese squad down. T1’s objective control was uncontested, which made for a slow but steady first match win.
