Keria is Determined for MSI 2023, T1 Fans Concerned for Another Reason.
As announced recently, MSI 2023 will be held in London, United Kingdom - the land of fog and the home of the most captivating club football tournament in the world - the English Premier League. Hence, many League of Legends players have shown great excitement towards the prospect of competing in England as well as combining it with watching football.
The T1 players are no exception, especially Keria. For those who have followed T1 for a long time, Keria's fervent love for football is well-known. Recently, T1's talented Support shared his determination to win the LCK Spring 2023 championship to secure a spot at the upcoming MSI. For Keria, one of the reasons he wants to participate in this year's MSI is to watch the English Premier League live.
Specifically, Keria shared on his stream: 'I want to go to London and watch football first, whether there's a tournament or not is a later consideration. Oh my god, I really want to go to London, so I hope the whole team will go to MSI together. When I get to London, I definitely have to bring the jersey I got from Tottenham Hotspur.' This is the jersey that the T1 team acquired when they interacted with Son Heung-min - the Korean player who is currently a key player for Tottenham Hotspur.
Before Keria's sharing, many fans hoped that he would just be a fan rather than be 'tainted' by the lack of titles from the London-based football club. Perhaps those who are long-time football fans and regularly follow the English Premier League know that despite having many star players, Tottenham has yet to win any major titles, including the Premier League championship. Their most recent championship was the League Cup (won in the 2007-08 season).
However, based on their performances in LCK Spring 2023, Keria and T1 are currently the top contenders for the domestic championship. It's difficult to predict T1's performance at MSI 2023, but one thing is certain - Faker and his teammates will be incredibly determined to seek redemption after the disappointing second-place finishes in the previous season.
