T1’s history in the League of Legends pro scene
Throughout the years, the team name T1 (previously SK Telecom T1 or SKT T1) has almost always been synonymous with legendary League of Legends player Faker.
Faker is a three-time Worlds champion and is arguably South Korea’s biggest esports star. He has been with the organization for about eight years now, and became a part-owner at T1 last year. He even got his right hand insured for KR₩1 billion.
With these accomplishments, all eyes are now on the new T1 Wild Rift roster. Can they surpass their PC counterparts?
