At Worlds in 2022, T1 beat an LPL team 3-0 in Quarterfinals, and beat another LPL team 3-1 in Semifinals.

What’s even more crazy is that the team they beat in 2022 Semifinals 3-1 is JDG, the team they also beat 3-1 in Semifinals at 2023 Worlds.

After SKT/Faker gatekept RNG/Uzi in Worlds year after year, T1 is now gatekeeping JDG two years in a row from reaching the finals.
