In an electrifying finale to the 2025 League of Legends World Championship, T1's legendary player Faker led his team to a thrilling 3-2 victory over KT Rolster, securing an unprecedented third consecutive global title and cementing T1’s dominance in esports.
KT Rolster took an early advantage by achieving First Blood at the river and securing the initial Dragon along with three Void Grubs. They extended their gold lead through effective ganks and a second Dragon skirmish, followed by taking the Herald. However, between 15 and 20 minutes at the third Dragon, T1 turned the momentum with a decisive team fight that nullified KT’s lead. Key plays from Keria’s Poppy initiated crucial engagements, allowing Faker’s Taliyah to snowball the team into Baron control and an additional Dragon. With a second Baron secured, T1 breached KT’s base and closed out the game decisively, demonstrating their skill in flipping the fight against early pressure.
