After months of fan speculation — which only increased after the2023 World Championship— theLeague of LegendsT1 roster for 2024 is confirmed.
The organization first teased an announcement at 2:10 a.m. on November 23, four days after they won their fourth Worlds title.
As the last standing LCK team in the competition, they went up against LPL fourth seedWeibo Gaming in the final, sweeping them 3-0. This same roster also qualified for theWorlds 2022 final a year before, but lost 3-2 to DRX.
For the 2024 season, they’re going to have a go at it one more time.
Why the re-signed T1 roster for 2024 season is a first, even for the storied organization
At the end of 2023,Lee “Faker” Sang-hyeokre-signed a three-year contract with the organization that expires in November 2025. Meanwhile, jungler Mun “Oner” Hyeon-jun’s contract ends in 2024.
This meant that after Worlds 2023, three of T1’s championship-winning roster were free agents, which caused a lot of speculation within the community.
Even before Worlds started,Lee “Gumayusi” Min-hyeong hinted in an interviewwith Naver that this lineup could be their last.
All that was put to rest today when T1 announced thatbot laner Gumayusi,support Ryu “Keria” Min-seok, and top lanerChoi “Zeus” Woo-jeall re-signed with the organization.
This is a first in T1 history because even after they won Worlds 2013, 2015, and 2016, none of those championship-winning rosters came back to compete in full.
Just yesterday, T1 made another historic announcement — the head coach of their previous championship-winning lineups is making a comeback:Kim “kkOma” Jeong-gyunwill lead the Worlds 2023 champions for the new season.
He was also the head coach ofSouth Korea’s gold medal winning team at the Asian Gamesthis year.
After the suddenresignation of head coach and three-time world champion Bae “Bengi” Seong-woongin LCK Summer 2023, another former SK Telecom T1 jungler Im “Tom” Jae-hyeon stepped up to the plate as their interim head coach.
He led them for the remainder of LCK Summer 2023 where they finished fifth in the regular season and second in the playoffs after losing to Gen.G 3-0 in the final.
They qualified for Worlds 2023 as second seed via championship points. After going 3-1 in the Swiss stage, they went on to defeat LNG Esports 3-0 in the quarterfinals, JD Gaming 3-1 in the semifinals, before besting yet another LPL team Weibo Gaming in the final.
