How did T1 fair against GenG yesterday?

Those were the finals or a bracket match to see who advances? Because the site I was looking to for the results of the match yesterday showed some more matches being played throughout next week:
T1 fell short again to Gen.G, but this time they had the upper hand and had two series points after winning the third map.



They couldn't close it out on those last two maps, and Gen.G played it out perfectly, capitalizing on every bit of mistake T1 made during each skirmish.

In the next few days, we'll have more league action since EWC is up next after the MSI.
That's a close fight ngl, even T1 stomped them on G3 (?), well it is what it is. MSI is fun! I'm looking forward to the upcoming EWC which is T1 is the defending champion. This month is full of league and I'm happy since this is my childhood game and this recent year is full of very fulfilling tournaments that's very intense.

GGs to T1 and wellplayed to GEN.G, if the narrative is the same as 2023 JDG (ruler) won MSI and T1 in worlds, 2024 GENG (chovy) won MSI and T1 in worlds, let's see! Still incredible for T1 to at least dominate 90% of the major teams! (90% since it's always 3-2 with GEN.G)

That series had everything, including the record-breaking viewership. It does feel like a golden era for League fans, especially with the storylines so tightly wound. Both teams keep pushing each other to new mental levels. Chovy finally shook off the finals choker thing by reframing the pressure (just playing for fun, which is god-tier at that level), and you could see the Gen.G coaching staff taking real risks with the draft. Those are not safe calls in a Game 5.

On the T1 side, you have to respect how even after all these heartbreaks, they are never really out of it. Every time they lose, they are back in the lab. And with MSI giving a Worlds ticket now, Gen.G has all the breathing room, but T1's path just got way harder. So, Ruler's MSI -> T1's Worlds, then Chovy's MSI -> T1's Worlds? Maybe! But it's never that simple, and that is why we keep watching. These two keep finding new ways to surprise us. EWC, LCK, Worlds… next few months are fun and I am here for it.
Yeah if the narratives stick to them like proving how they're the Gods in the past worlds, then the world 2025 will going to be a hype international. It's never that simple but T1 proving in international stage is coded in the past years, like it's character development from Q1 to Q4, learning how to defeat other teams while the others are being comfortable because they defeated T1 multiple times. And let's be honest, without T1 or any LCK, the tourna really lacks viewership, I myself is too old for this game but I always watch series when T1 is there since it's the team I grow up in the past. If riot games want to gain more viewership, they need a good narrative again for other players, they need to put Ruler as the new God if ever T1 keeps losing in LCK split 3 but let's see!
