The Best of All-Time: The Story of T1 LoL
ฝัง

- There is no other esports team in the world like T1.
To wear a T1 uniform is to feel the weight of an unmatched competitive legacy.
And, since 2013, it's meant playing alongside the man who would become the game’s greatest ever.
But despite that success, it hasn’t always been easy to cheer for T1. Because when their era ended… it crashed to a halt.
It’s true that no team can win forever. But for T1 and Faker, the question was for how much longer they could lose. And in 2021, fans were given a glimpse at a new dawn.
And so the greatest dynasty in League of Legends did something else that no esports team had done - they managed an astonishing rebuild with the greatest player ever as their foundation.
The carry that inspired an entire generation of players became a mentor, leading a new class of prospects to glory.
With the greatest dynasty ever behind them, it’s up to Faker and T1 to forge an even brighter future. Faker and T1 set the benchmark for everyone including themselves, but the question now is can they reach it once more?
This is the Story of T1 League of Legends.

![The Complete Story of Destiny! From origins to Shadowkeep [Timeline and Lore explained]](/img/n.gif)
If Faker wins Worlds and retired. No one would complain. He did the impossible and he is the Face of the game
I always said to myself after he won Worlds for the third time and then lost to Samsung the following year, "I just want Faker to win Worlds one more time before he retires."
I was never a die hard fan of faker unlike some, there were other personalities that attracted me but I can nonetheless appreciate what he has done for league. I feel like a small part of league will die when he retires.
@@aryanghadge5029 For me it's just pride. I'm not sure if there is any public video of this, but in almost every tournament that SKT/T1 was in (regardless if they were the favorites or not), most analysts would vote against them compared to every other Korean team.
People nonchalantly say Faker is the best player just cause of his outstanding record. But I just want one more win because I don't see anyone ever in league winning 4 Worlds ever again.
@@zaimanity8893 literally same 😂
Literally just want him to win 1 more title and then chill and retire. Or he can even continue coaching in T1 like Bengi. Maybe even return after a retirement? We'll see haha
I'll cry out loud if T1 wins the Worlds this year. It would be so emotional for T1 fans especially for Faker.
That would seal himself and T1 as the best LoL player/roster in existence, until someone breaks the 4 Worlds win.
@@forsaturn4629 No team has even been able to get 2 worlds championship or a back to back win soo I don't see how some team would be even able to break a 3 time world championship.
@@Daiivys Samsung has 2.
@@sketch3744 same org but its rebanded. First is SSW and next is SSG
@@markangelobalquero7342 Well yeah but in that sense t1rebranded 2 times aswell
“They had the pieces, but only needed time.” Tell this to the T1 fans please.
biggest problem with T1 fans is they are relentless and flip flop. 99% of them will cheer when they win but HATE when they lose. It's never an in between. True fans are in it no matter what happens.
@@tweedle634 good thing i'm the 1%
I’ve never played LoL, but I’ve heard about how amazing these guys are the game, and they are a force to be reckoned with. I mean you have Tyler1 and Faker
THE 5-ROLE KING STOMPING HIS WAY THROUGH KOREA RN BABY
got us in the first halt not gonna lie
its too bad that t1 left t1
good just keep watching the game and never ever tryed the game i promised youre if ur play lol youre gonna regget it
Faker is a force to be reckoned with.
Tyler1 is a literal force to be reckoned with.
It's definitely insane how much the organization has accomplished. 3 Worlds, 2 MSIs, 1 All Star, 10 OGN/LCK titles. We'll see just how far T1 can go this year after their 20-0 spring.
Isn't it 20-0?
I do believe that they went 20-0
@@paizurishiro2320 Sorry, I kept thinking regular season only. Let me fix that.
@@ade1174 also T1 won IEM Katowice
@@kaysaiah3000 Right. Thanks for the reminder. I miss that weird little event.
Through ups and downs of this team, the solid fan of this team has a rollercoaster ride ever since 2013, and i know faker is thanking you for how are u faithful for him and to his team and now they are terrorizing MSI, what a time to be a T1 fanboy ever since
yep...been here since 2013, made me enter to play league, and watched every single T1 game since, i mean this year could be the one, and we are in for a treat, with the new stars rising at T1 we could get the best worlds tournament ever
This video is kind of rush. 2021 was a rollercoaster for T1 fans who support the team from 10 man experiment on Spring to semifinals finish at Worlds. 2021 T1 roster is not born overnight.
They completely skipped 2019 MSI too
Agree
Especially since the current, dominant T1 roster was always possible in 2021 but was literally the only iteration that did not see play for whatever reason. 2021 was a mess of a year with questionable coaching, it was not as simple as the video implies, and the 2-3 finish against DWG at Worlds Semi Finals was actually very impressive considering how the team was in spring and most of summer.
"Building something that stands the test of time is the very definition of a dynasty" - One of the best sentence to describe T1 LoL
They lucked out by hiring Faker, he is the sole reason this team is still competitive. He carried T1 for half of it's life span, they fucked him over for 2 years(2018 and 2019 with retarded roster changes), he was promoted to co-owner of T1 and he built the current roster himself which is now probably the best LCK team.
Back here in 2023 after seeing them win it all! 🙌
It took them 2 years, but the promising Zeus-Oner-Faker-Gumayusi-Keria lineup has finally won Worlds.
Came here after today's victory. Best team in League of Legends history !
1 year later, I am coming back to this video. After 7 years since their last Worlds win, 10 years since they hoisted their first Worlds trophy, *FAKER AND T1 WON THEIR 4th WORLDS CHAMPIONSHIP* ❤️.
2:13 You can just imagine the sigh of relief over Ryu's face when he saw that they didn't play THAT clip on this one.
This T1 is such a fantastic roster and I hope they go to win MSI and worlds this year 🔥
The only reason I still watching lol because I need to have to see Faker raise the Worlds Championship once more. With me, he is my youth, after so many years, although up and down, his desire to lol is the same.
I've been a fan of T1 since 2015, when I started to play the game, and no matter the results, the losses and the sad moments, no one can deny that T1 is the best org when it comes to LoL and Faker is the Greatest player to have ever played this game.
I'm so glad one of theScore members is such a huge t1 fan he puts out so many of these well produced faker/t1 videos, cheers!
They were able to achieve greatness once more in 2023.
Please milk this as much as possible, I'm enjoying it I'm not being sarcastic or joking. I'm quite literally enjoying
I'd love to see a remake of this - of how T1 returned with new legends under the gaze of an old God
Just gonna comment here and say that Roster already WON worlds 2023
Cant wait fir the next T1 documentary “The Broken Road”
I really hope T1 wins MSI then go undefeated in the summer split then win Worlds. Perfect year
Very unlikely but same tbh that would be awesome
China No.1. China will win.
@@declanjohnston3983 yeah i dont think it will happen but if there is a team that could do it then it's the current T1
I really hope G2 will defeat T1 again, but this time in the finals
@@GalaaxyFighteer cope and hope
A joy to think about it every time.
I get goosebumps when i see all the old clips.
This defined my time as a teenager and still does.
What a Legacy he has build.
What a mental strengh he must have.
Idol. Faker.
4x Worlds, 1x Asian Games Gold medal 2MSI, 1 All-star, 10 OGN/LCK
Greatest League team of all time with the Greatest League Player of all time. T1 is Faker, Faker is T1
That was a perfect combination of entertainment and information! Thank you very much for this documentary! :)
Not only can you commend Faker's skills in LoL, you also have to admit that this is one mentally tough guy. I can't imagine having a whole team depending mostly on you, the fans who give their full support each split, and also the pressure you put on yourself as the esteemed best player of all time.
He's done it again!
I love Faker. Literally feel like all the old heads that got to grow up watching Jordan. I got to grow up watching this legend.. I don't even play LoL anymore but Faker will always be a legend to me
Never ending T1 story, but don't get me wrong I love T1.
Just the name T1 itself makes money. LoL
I think the Zeus,Oner,Faker,Guma and Keria lineup is the 2nd coming of the 2016 lineup.
I hope that someday in the near future Riot will make a documentary for T1 like the last dance just imagine a documentary like the last dance but for T1
I keep seeing these types of videos about Faker, and I never got tired of them.
2015, SKT Get a perfect 18-0 then lose MSI Finals against a chinese team, then win worlds
2022, T1 Get a perfect 18-0 then lose MSI Finals against a chinese team
I choose to believe
What a bunch of absolute madlads. Watch them speedrun Worlds 2022
I mean DK could've make back-to-back last year, they looked unstoppable and able to speedrun Worlds and everyone thought T1 is the only team that will give DK a hard time but no one saw EDG especially Jiejie coming through them
Faker's first hard lost was a 0-3
And now, with one of the most poetic win..
a 3-0
Faker's narrative to achieve a 4th Worlds was like a damn longs ass movie.
GOAT
i dont care what his haters gonna say
for me he's "The GoaT"
what a legend
FINALY SOMEONE share T1 in the league of legend I am so proud for them WELL DONE GOOD JOB!
A year after and let me tell you … they did it🎉
This 2022 T1 roster if definitely the best roster in the history of League
Faker was the reason I became a mid laner in 2013 till now. I still remembered the time he was dubbed as the unkillable midlane god or something and of course, 13 year old me thought that was so cool so I became his fan~ Fighting T1!! Hoping to win worlds this year :
Unkillable demon king 🤗
3 Wolrds 🏆 2 MSI 🏅 10 Domestic 🥇
Best Team in League of Legends 😎👌
never forget when i seen for the first time (2013) playing SKT/T1. That team was totaly awesome and since that iam Big fan of T1. They show us so much huge moments... First and still only LoL dinasty, a lot of never give up moments... legendary plays a lot of wins trophies and more. Always when SKT/T1 playing everyone except something epic.
The difference in the speed of kills at the beginning of this video versus the end is ridiculous.
The timing of this video may have been better by waiting for current MSI to finish. T1 are the favorites to win it and it would have made this video more hype. On the off chance they lose at msi you can just delay the video till worlds later this year which i am sure they will do well in if not win it.
The problem with your thought process is that its better to make 2 videos than one. If T1 wins any international time this year they will make another video on them
@@alex2005z But that would be a general video not part of the ''the story of ..." series. They make these videos rarely and highlight great players and teams. We probably wont see a part 2 of this this year
@@alisajid1802 its still better for money to make 2 videos
@@alisajid1802 so they never make one by y our logic as they can always win another so no doc series would ever be made
I believe this video was made for their LCK win but was a little late.
you guys upload this every single msi and worlds
Things about Faker that got me it’s not because he win a lot but because he is not give up. If I win so much like him and boom! take down on the ground I swear I won’t even try back to the top 😂 I will give up for sure! Just quit. He so amazing, so inspiration. Even when people say he done skt done t1 done there no way he can comeback on the top (maybe just top4 in lck only) but he just keep doing it no matter what. that’s got me a lot.
What’s crazy is that what happened to t1 this year is exactly what happened to damwon last year favorites to win Msi over rng lost in 5 games, then favorites to win worlds but lost in a nail biting 5 games. These are my 2 favorite teams and that is so unfortunate
really well put together video! Ive played league over time and seen what happened to Skt t1 but you gave more insights than ive known so for thanks for that!
How many videos of the Story of SKT/T1/Faker do you want?
The score esports: *YES*
when marin face tells everything when they lose on MSI, marin unleashed the godly top side of him on worlds
I’ve been watching T1 matches since 2015 and one thing I can tell for sure is that this roster has the spirit and synergy required to potentially win the worlds. And I am so happy about it :)
I remember when I saw SKT for the first time I was mind blown. They literally set of how the game had to be played and showed so much more at that time than other teams :)
Same, even Dopa admitted that prime Faker was the best player and revolutionized a lot of strats that even he used at that time.
@@wabbajack8283 yeah, the Russians and t1 had the most impact on how League is played :)
That aged well
i hope you guys make seperate documentaries in each one of the players in this roster
Surely this year they do it. I wouldn't be able to take if they lose finals like last year
i am not an og fan but way before i watch or keep up with esports, t1 and faker was already well known by many people. the org itself and faker himself is a legend that none in esport scene would forget
T1 is dominant, they'll build the dynasty again.
I really hope T1 smashes RNG this MSI. The audacity of RNG to play the victim card for the rematches when Riot is literally bending the rules to RNG’s benefit and everyone else in the tournament is getting the short end of the stick.
Makes me sick how blatantly pro LPL league of legends have become. I hope RNG gets stomped, they deserve that this year.
RNCHEAT

@@CrazyAvidGamer ratio.
You don't get to insult other leagues if the League you watch is not in the country of said international tournament.
Here before T1 wins 2022 MSI and Worlds
it took them 4 years (2013-2016) to win the world 3 times. Even the rosters that were rated all-star and stronger than SKT at their peak could not reach. If T1 wins Worlds again this year, it will be a happy ending for Faker's career when he is 26 years old
theScore curse
I said it last year, they won't win Worlds, because they're still new, but that next year they’ll do wonders, and here they are. It is a powerful roster, Keria, who is an actual genius at the game, Guma is a literal monster, Faker is Faker nothing more needs to be said, Oner is evolving at a rapid rate, and Zeus exceeded all my expectations. I really hope they win MSI regardless of the ping issue, and they have a big chance of taking Worlds
The moment I saw that Gumayusi was INnoVation's brother AND Faker's niece, I knew he was gonna be a machine.. but Keria really just blasted us all with his games. Oner is big pp b-Oner, still having upgrades added to that big dong as time goes. Zeus was the most surprising of all. The kid fucking wrecked players left and right despite being behind.. HE KNOWS HOW TO PLAY WEAKSIDE.
Even if Faker retires, his name will echo for generations to come. He is the essence of League and the core of the LoL fandom.
2019 was just pure pain...
Faker and skt are already legends whether they win or lose msi and worlds this year including a perfect split
Just a reminder to everyone watching t1 in 2022, they are currently on a 26 match win streak this year.. 6-0 in MSI so far and 20-0 in spring...
Please dont gave me that hope again, I´ll not be able to resist the
disappointment :(
how did you like the finals :>
@@lplwin7539 I enjoyed them, they was so intense to watch. And I rly have hype for the worlds this year ^^
@@flo_tek837 totally agreed
Actually you could call this video also: The Story behinde Faker
The only thing that I think is missing from this video is all the coaching changes that SKT/T1 also went through during their tumultuous years.
THIS IS THEIR FUCKING REVIVAL YEAR
"Sheen, this is the seventh week in a row you've shown T1 history in class"
SKT T1 fan then T1 fan now. This year has to be it, I just want Faker to win at least once more mannnn ahhhhh
That’s got to be one of your best videos ever!
"And damn old legends and old legacies, goodbye faker, goodbye T1!", I hate that line every time I hear it, it makes my blood boil disrespecting Faker like that.
Who's still here after T1 did took down G2 in MSI knockouts?
Goosebumps bro
SK Telecom T1 best team in the League of Legends history !
I don't even remotely need to know about LoL to enjoy this. Fantastic video
Amazing documentary, GG
T1 roster in 2022 is not a joke anymore
Like a movie wtf...great production 💥🥰
Definitely the Ferrari of League of Legends.
Goosebumps
Oh no... I already know poor Ryu...
2022 lineup made u cry they are comfortable to each other
Best Team for Sure
The video feels a little early like shouldn't you have waited until they won MSI too?
T1 to League is what Ferrari is for F1.
If t1 wins world im legit going to die from excitement
The fact that Faker still doesn't have an Ahri skin of his own is a tragedy
thescore is for sure a massive skt/t1 fan 🤣
and wow no faker vs ryu clip this time huh
You'll have to wait for a video about Faker for that, not a video about T1.
@@olsenfernandes3634 Nah in every LOL esports related videos of thescore, there's always a faker vs ryu clip
Nah they just milking money from it because whatever content relate to T1 they get atleast 500k view a month
WHAT?! A T1 VIDEO WITHOUT THE ICONIC FAKER VS RYU CLIP?????? nice
Let's go T1, I'm your fan since 2014
I got introduced to league in T1s beginning of their era. Been only a t1 fan since, I believe in faker.
this was a long time coming and tbh im surprised it took so long to make a vid on them
you guys need to make a video about the G2-SKT rivalry
I hope we see again the rematch between t1 and g2 if ever in the finals of msi this year
Faker for is a legend playing since 2010 still master is my highst reach rank 😂😂😂😂
With a slight continuation of the story they are 6-0 at MSI and most likely going to with. However, as we've seen in the past anything can happen when Worlds comes around.
