T1 came up just one game short of a title on multiple occasions this season.

Despite Worlds finals loss, T1 made history in 2022 chase for League’s ‘grand slam’

T1’s 2022 squad may just be one of the biggest “what-if” stories in professional League of Legends history. The team started the year on the greatest run to ever open a season, winning 26 consecutive matches between January and May, while coming just one game away from lifting the Summoner’s Cup for the fourth time in franchise history in November. 

But even though T1 finished as the runners-up at the World Championship, their 2022 season will still go down as one of the most consistently strong from start to finish. This year, T1 became just the fifth team in League history to compete in all four possible grand finals in a single calendar year.
