T1's Faker Secures Historic Third Straight Worlds Title in 2025 Victory
In a thrilling conclusion to the 2025 League of Legends World Championship, T1, led by the legendary Faker, defeated KT Rolster 3-2 to capture their third consecutive world title. This achievement solidifies T1’s standing as a dominant power in esports and leaves the community questioning whether anyone can rival their streak.
Game 1: T1’s Mid Game Reversal Secures Early Lead
KT started strong with early control, earning First Blood in the river and collecting the first Dragon along with three Voidgrubs. Their early ganks and a won Dragon skirmish built a notable gold advantage, bolstered by taking the Herald.
However, around the 15–20 minute mark, T1 turned the tide during the third Dragon fight. Keria’s Poppy initiated game-changing engages that allowed Faker’s Taliyah to dominate. With that momentum, T1 claimed Baron control, secured another Drake, and ultimately took a second Baron to break into KT’s base for the first match victory.
