Shortly after the conclusion of their record-breaking split, most of the members of the T1 League of Legends team test positive for Covid-19.

In an announcement by T1, they informed the fans of the T1 LoL squad of the news. It read:

We would like to let the fans know that T1 League of Legends LCK team ‘Zeus', ‘Oner', ‘Faker', ‘Keria' and ‘Moment' have tested positive for COVID-19 today. Though ‘Gumayusi', ‘Asper', ‘Bengi' and ‘Polt' have tested negative, we will make sure they are safe.

They will be quarantined until April 9th following the government's quarantine guidelines and will be treated at the team's accommodations. We will make sure that the players get plenty of rest and all the necessities for a speedy recovery during this time.

Additionally, we will make sure that the T1's HQ and facilities are thoroughly disinfected. Once again, we apologize for causing any concerns amongst our fans and will do our best to ensure a speedy recovery for the team. We ask for your endless support and encouragement during this time.

Thank you.


This news came only a day after the League of Legends Champions Korea (LCK) 2022 Spring Finals, which were held with a live audience. T1 CEO Joseph Marsh said that he is “wishing the boys a swift recovery,” and that “we had negative tests prior to finals on Saturday. We would never knowingly put others at risk.”
