T1 Crush KT to Win LoL Worlds 2025 Title as Faker Builds Unbeatable Legacy
With T1's victory over KT Rolster at LoL Worlds 2025, Lee “Faker” Sang-hyeok secured his sixth world championship, setting a record that will be extremely difficult to surpass. Despite a shaky performance during the Swiss Stage and skepticism surrounding the team after a generally underwhelming year, T1 triumphed once again.
Faker, already known for his extensive trophy collection, added another title to his legacy, cementing his status as a legend of the game. This year, a T1 win at Worlds feels almost inevitable when they qualify, thanks to their formidable core lineup:
- Mun “Oner” Hyeon-jun
- Lee “Faker” Sang-hyeok
- Lee “Gumayusi” Min-hyeong
- Ryu “Keria” Min-seok
The roster's strength was further bolstered by Choi “Doran” Hyeon-joon, who stepped up effectively in place of Choi “Zeus” Woo-je when it mattered most.
“At this point, no matter what happens during the season, a T1 win is expected if they make it to Worlds on any given year.”
Some fans grow weary of T1's repeated successes, while others root against them hoping to see fresh champions emerge. KT Rolster came close to breaking the longstanding dominance in the Telecom War rivalry but ultimately fell short as T1 once again claimed the title.
It has been 12 years since Faker first lifted the Worlds trophy in 2013. Back then, few could have predicted how legendary he would become. His third title in 2016 established him as a permanent figure in League of Legends history, though he did not manage to claim another world championship until now.
“He lifted his third trophy in 2016, making Faker an undeniable household name and a permanent part of LoL’s legacy.”
Despite challenges along the way, Faker’s enduring excellence and T1’s strong teamwork have kept them at the top of competitive League of Legends.
Author’s summary: Faker's sixth Worlds title with T1 in 2025 confirms his unparalleled legacy and the team's dominance, despite ups and downs throughout the year.
