Some audience members unjustly target T1, eliciting frustration from even the neutral fans.
Over two weeks post-T1's triumph at the 2023 World Championship, the buzz still persists. Despite being the LCK Summer 2023 runner-up and not the anticipated champion, T1's victory journey remains monumental.
Despite overcoming all four LPL teams en route to their championship win, T1, especially Faker, faces unabated criticism from antifans and rival team supporters across forums.
Critics and certain extreme fans claim T1's 2023 World Championship win is undermined by their LCK loss to Gen.G and missing the MSI title, suggesting Riot's interference due to Faker's iconic stature.
The 'double standards' by some T1 detractors and rival team fans have also irritated neutral spectators, who decry the selective memory of past failures to discredit T1's current success, notably ignoring Gen.G's consecutive early exits at international events despite being LCK champions.
The issue continues to stir debates in Vietnamese LoL communities. Clearly, Gen.G fans, or fans of any team rivaling T1, especially the anti-fans, are merely confronting the consequences of their long-term actions towards Faker and his team.
