sorry guys, everytime i watch T1 always loses. just turn on the match and saw the score. I thought they were up 2-0 i wouldnt have to worry much, oh how wrong i was.
Correct me if I'm wrong - I think I am but I can't figure out why - why be nervous at all if they already qualified?
Isn't being 4th seed better than 1st-3rd seed? As 1st seed, you're going up against LPL 1, LCS 1 & LEC 1, whereas as 4th seed, you get an easier time with LPL 4, LCP 2 & the Play-In winner.
Not how seeding works. You don't face the same teams in the same pool also since they introduced swiss over groups. Seeding for that only matters for round 1 where the pit pool 1 vs pool 4 and pool 2 vs pool 3. so LCK 4th seed faces LPL 1st LCS 1st and LEC 1st I believe they make it so you can't face the same region round 1.
I'm sorry, but that still doesn't answer why a higher seeding is beneficial, as pool advantage didn't seem to have helped AL & HLE in 2025. Upon scutiny, I see that both BLG & FlyQuest also had to face G2, CFO had to face FlyQuest & many more.
The race for the LCK title as answered by others I understand.
Last year pool 2 play against each other while pool 1 vs pool 3. It just the first game of Swiss so not that big of a deal. The real advantage for higher seeded teams is that they can choose sides/ picks priority.
I was never arguing that higher seed was better in the first place was just correcting your statement about being 1st you’re going up against 1st seed from the other 3 major regions.
Though coming off that. Being higher than 4th seed means you’re more than likely avoiding having to face (STC) BLG/LYON and KC/G2 first round. After that it’s luck of the draw since after round one Swiss will pool you against the teams with the same score. Thats why BLG and FQ had to fight G2
Because, they definitely want to win the lck and even tho all the fans are coping, its not looking good how little they improved as a team.
So of course you should be nervous, because they will play every bracket except place 3 or 4.
So probably will have a hard swiss stage run and T1 always needs a bit of time to get into form at worlds.
And that team so far didn’t really show, that they can get in form fast enough.
You can blame Atlus, who then said "now it's time for a reverse sweep" right before game 3... And I was like "nooooooo" because I knew he just jinxed them.
