MSI 2024 T1 Performance During Play-In Stage
T1 vs EST Play-In Stage
We will take a look at all of the games T1 played during the 2024 MSI Play-In Stage. Their first match was against the LLA top seed- EST. To no one's surprise, T1 was able to efficiently outscale and outplay the Latin American team, as although the underdog regions have always struggled to keep up with the major regions in terms of macro and wave management, the individual talent on the roster is not to be underestimated.
Despite EST being able to hold their ground with some very flashy plays, ultimately T1 was able to stall out the game long enough and choke EST out of their minor advantages. Ultimately, the LLA put up quite a fight until the very end as their efforts were more than commendable.
