T1's Faker Secures Historic Third Straight Worlds Title in Thrilling 2025 Victory
T1, led by the legendary Faker, captured their third consecutive League of Legends World Championship in 2025 after a tense 3-2 victory over KT Rolster. This triumph further highlights T1’s unmatched dominance in professional esports and leaves fans questioning whether any team can challenge their reign.
Game 1: T1’s Mid Game Reversal Turns the Tide
KT took an early lead with a river First Blood, two Dragons, and solid map control after winning several early skirmishes. However, around the 15-20 minute mark, T1 completely reversed the momentum with a decisive fight near the third Dragon. Keria’s Poppy set up critical engages, allowing Faker’s Taliyah to snowball into Baron control and another Drake. With this momentum, T1 secured a second Baron, broke into KT’s base, and sealed a convincing win.

Game 2: KT’s Calculated Scaling Overpowers T1
KT struck first again, claiming First Blood on Gumayusi and winning a mid-lane 2-for-1 exchange to gain a 2k gold edge. They capitalized further by punishing a top-lane gank, securing both a turret and Herald. Although T1 managed to win a mid-game team fight, KT aced them shortly after and claimed control of Atakhan and a Dragon, balancing the series with precise execution and scaling.
