T1 vs FOX – Determining the Playoff Seeding
Both T1 and FOX are heading into their final match of the LCK summer regular split, with their playoff berths already secured. The pressure may be relatively low, but for T1, they are still vying with KT for the fourth spot. T1 will have the advantage of knowing the results between KT and DK, which will set the stakes for their match accordingly. Regardless of the outcome, all teams are aiming for a spot at Worlds 2024 later this year.
Breaking Down the Match
T1 seems to have regained momentum in the final weeks of the split after a shaky mid-season period. While they show promise, their adaptation to the current meta is a concern. Their wins often rely on similar team compositions and comfort picks, which may become predictable and exploitable in playoffs. Against FOX, this may not be an issue, but it could pose challenges in Bo5 series against other teams.
FOX is a resilient team known for their ability to play from behind and excel in late-game scenarios. If they can weather T1’s early aggression, we could witness a competitive series. However, if T1 establishes dominance early on, they are likely to secure the victory and solidify their fourth seed in the playoffs.
