A few T1 supporters delivered another truck to LoL Park on August 7. They previously dispatched a truck on August 4, when T1 faced Hanwha Life Esports in the first match of the 2022 LCK Summer split.
A small group of irate T1 supporters sent the trucks to show their displeasure with the team’s coaches, Choi “Polt” Seung-hun and Ji-hwan Kim. Due to their ignorance of the team’s drafting and lack of leadership experience with the current roster, many fans contend that the coaching staff at the moment is incompetent. The “SKT Minor Gallery” on the website “DC Inside” has since issued a statement calling for the replacement of T1’s coaching staff with Worlds champions.
Following Kim “Kim” Jeong-soo’s from T1 as coach in 2020, reports have surfaced that Nicholas “LS” De Cesare and Choi “Polt” Seung-hun will take over as T1’s head coaches. T1 headquarters in Gangnam, South Korea received a protest vehicle and funeral wreaths from irate T1 supporters who were upset by the decision.
Since then, T1 has revealed that Yang “Daeny” Dae-in and Lee “Zefa” Jae-min, the two coaches who helped DAMWON Gaming [formerly known as DWG KIA win the 2020 World Championship, will serve as the team’s head coaches for the 2021 campaign. Polt was introduced as the team’s general manager along with the announcement. However, in the middle of the Summer split of the same year, the two coaches were fired from T1, and Polt and Moment took over as head coaches of T1 for the 2022 campaign.
On Twitter, T1’s CEO, Joe Marsh, expressed his opinions about these trucks, writing that “100 ‘fans’ wasted money on a truck. They don’t represent the other 1 million admirers.
T1 had an unbeaten split in the 2022 LCK Spring split with Polt and Moment as the backbone of the coaching staff. They placed second as LCK representatives at the 2022 Mid-Season Invitational, are currently sitting comfortably in second place in the standings for the regular split of the 2022 LCK Summer split, and have qualified for round two of the playoffs.
