T1 completes 18-0 regular split for the first time in LCK history

The League of Legends Champions Korea has witnessed an unprecedented milestone that redefines competitive excellence in esports. For the first time since the league’s inception, a professional team has navigated an entire regular split without dropping a single match.

T1, the most decorated organization in competitive League of Legends history, accomplished this remarkable feat by securing their eighteenth consecutive victory against DRX. This perfect 18-0 record establishes a new benchmark for dominance in professional gaming and guarantees T1’s permanent place in the annals of esports achievement.

Entering the postseason, T1 emerges as the overwhelming favorite to continue their flawless campaign. The team’s direct qualification to the semifinals means they need only win two best-of-five series to claim the 2022 LCK Spring Split championship trophy.

Faker and T1 completes flawless split against DRX

The decisive victory that sealed T1’s perfect campaign came against a formidable DRX squad that had consistently outperformed expectations throughout the split. Under the veteran leadership of bot laner Kim “Deft” Hyuk-kyu, DRX had established themselves as legitimate contenders, making them anything but an easy final opponent for T1’s historic pursuit.

Despite DRX’s demonstrated capabilities and competitive resilience, T1 displayed unwavering determination to complete their perfect regular season. The team systematically dismantled DRX in just two games, with mid laner Lee “Faker” Sang-hyeok orchestrating both victories through masterful gameplay and strategic leadership.

The legendary player demonstrated why he’s considered the greatest of all time by delivering dominant performances in both matches. He initiated the series on Vex, concluding the first game with an impeccable 4/0/5 KDA in under 29 minutes. DRX found themselves completely unprepared for Faker’s elevated performance in game two, where he overwhelmed Kim “Zeka” Geon-woo and the entire DRX lineup while playing Veigar. T1 required only 30 minutes to secure the series victory, with Faker achieving another perfect scoreline of 8/0/6.

This flawless LCK campaign represents another monumental achievement for T1’s storied legacy. The organization already holds the record for most World Championship titles globally and appears poised to add another trophy this season following several years of rebuilding and refinement.

Before pursuing global championship aspirations, the record-setting squad will focus on capturing the 2022 LCK Spring Split championship. Victory would also grant T1 the opportunity to represent South Korea at the 2022 Mid-Season Invitational, providing crucial international experience ahead of the World Championship.

T1 is scheduled to compete in their semifinal match on Saturday, March 26. They will face either the defending champions DWG KIA or the sixth-seeded team, depending on playoff bracket outcomes.
