LoL – Worlds 2025: T1 Secure Their Sixth Title in Historic Telecom War
In front of 18,000 fans at Dong'an Lake Sports Park, T1, led by captain Lee “Faker” Sang-hyeok, claimed the 2025 Worlds championship by defeating KT Rolster in a thrilling final with a 3–2 scoreline.
The Greatest Telecom War Ends with T1's Victory
The intense battle, known as the greatest Telecom War in League of Legends history, concluded with T1's well-deserved coronation. This victory marks T1's sixth world championship title and confirms their ongoing dominance in the competitive scene.
A Historic Three-Peat Achieved
T1 became the first team to complete a three-peat by winning the Summoner’s Cup in 2023, 2024, and now 2025. This final was the fifth Worlds final ever to reach a Game 5, and the first played under fearless mode.
“For the first time, a League of Legends team has completed a three‑peat.”
Their back-to-back-to-back title had eluded them in 2017, when SK Telecom T1 (T1’s old name) lost 0–3 to Samsung Galaxy, led by Park “Ruler” Jae-hyuk. Faker’s legacy ultimately prevailed as history was rewritten.
A New Chapter for T1 and the Generation of Miracles
This new era revolves not only around Faker but also the “generation of miracles” supporting him. Players like Mun "Oner" Hyeon-jun, Lee "Gumayusi" Min-hyeong, and Ryu "Keria" Min-seok have joined the elite ranks of three-time Worlds champions, cementing their legendary status in the game.
“These players belong to a legendary breed within the game as they all enter the very closed circle of the three-time Worlds winner.”
T1’s victory reflects their unmatched skill and teamwork, reinforcing their place at the pinnacle of League of Legends esports.
