The
LCK season will resume in a few days, with the opening matchday featuring
against
KT Rolster this Wednesday. After more than a month without playing a match,
since their elimination by Dplus Kia on February 22, T1’s players will finally return to the stage and to competition this week.
During this period away from official matches, several players have spoken on stream on
SOOP in recent days. Among them was support player and three-time Worlds champion
. In a recent broadcast, he shared his thoughts on several topics and revealed a few details that may interest fans.
First, he confirmed that he has chosen the champion for his 2025 Worlds winner skin. After the tournament, he had held a poll among fans to determine their preference between Neeko and Seraphine. Although Neeko won the poll, Keria explained that he ultimately decided to select Seraphine instead, reasoning that Neeko changes form too frequently for a skin to feel particularly meaningful, as players would not consistently see the same appearance in-game.
A new fan of SkewMond
Although he did not participate in the
First Stand, the T1 support followed the matches of the event and even made a remark that may amuse European fans, and particularly French jungler
. “
I got inspired while watching G2’s games and suddenly wanted to buy a SkewMond jersey.” The performances delivered by SkewMond and
, notably against
BNK FEARX and
GEN.G Esports, clearly did not go unnoticed. Keria’s comments suggest that the European team’s performances left an impression well beyond the region itself.
Finally, a viewer asked Keria a question that drew broader attention. The person revealed she was 13 years old and had reached Diamond rank in League of Legends after just ten months of playing, expressing her ambition to become a professional player. Keria replied: “Her potential is insanely high right now. But by the time she debuts, isn't that still way too far away?” He added that he himself had reached Diamond after only a few months, suggesting that she might possess considerable talent. However, the exchange also highlighted a recurring issue that has recently resurfaced in discussions: the place of women in esports.
As Keria’s teammate and
League of Legends icon
remarked during the press conference before the most recent Worlds final, “
I believe that the biggest strength of gaming is that men and women can both play without any physical differences. I've seen that there's been a huge growth in the number of female players around the world. I hope they can continue to grow and make an impact on the scene overall.”
