Tonight, T1
shared a teaser video on their YouTube channel which showcased six shadowy figures along with the words "T1 IS WHERE THE BEST BELONG". Along with the emblematic song of the 2023 World Championship "GODS", the visual trailer has led to fan speculations.
Korean sources have confirmed to Sheep Esports that this video is hinting towards the fact that the South Korean organization is renewing its agreements with all of its starting players after having been crowned champions last Sunday.
Earlier in this off-season, rumors of potential roster movements emerged due to the contracts of Top Laner Choi "Zeus" Woo-je, AD Carry Lee "Gumayusi" Min-hyeong, and Support Ryu "Keria" Min-seok being set to expire after the end of the World Championship. Despite sources informing Sheep Esports that some players, namely Zeus, have had several offers from both the LCK and LPL, it seems that all players have now found agreements to continue their ongoing tenures with the storied organization.
As the team's only roster change, T1 has already
announced the return of former coach Kim "
kkOma" Jeong-gyun to its roster. Earlier during the Summer Split, the team
lost its previous head coach Bae "Bengi" Seong-woong, which led to Im "
Tom" Jae-hyeon assuming the role of interim head coach. With this new addition, he will now be moving back into the role of secondary coach. To conclude these changes, the team also
announced the departure of one of its other coaches: Kim "Roach" Kang-hee.
