《英雄聯盟》三冠戰隊T1終於在今日下午於官方推特宣布多項人事異動,首先是迎來前DAMWON Gaming主教練Kim,這也代表T1將與合作7年至今的kkOma分道揚鑣,也讓後者赴中的傳聞增添幾分可能性;選手部分則是一口氣官宣五位選手,但除了Roach是從Gen.G轉會來的之外,其他四位都是自青訓體系拔擢而上。
We're thrilled to announce that Kim "Kim" Jeong Soo is the new head coach of T1 League of Legends team. As an industry veteran, Kim has previously won Worlds and led multiple teams to championship contention. Please welcome Kim to the T1 family!#T1WIN #T1Fighting pic.twitter.com/CzdQuUpFQT

教練團部分,Kim將頂替kkOma成為T1新科主帥,現年31歲的Kim擁有資深執教資歷,生涯先後執教Samsung Galaxy、Dignitas、Longzhu Gaming、Invictus Gaming等橫跨多賽區的多支隊伍,Kim去年則是待在自次級聯賽打上來的新興戰隊DAMWON Gaming,後者最終止步S9世界大賽八強賽。
We’re excited to announce that Kim “Canna” Chang-dong, Choi “Ellim” Ellim, Lee “Gumayushi” Min-hyung, and Choi “Kuri” Won-yeong are called up to join the roster, along with Kim "Roach" Kang-hui who is joining the team this year.

選手部分,在Faker、Teddy、Effort與日前補進的Cuzz既有陣容上,T1一口氣宣布五位選手,但只有Roach是自其他隊伍轉會而來,Roach去年整季效力於Gen.G Esports。另外四位「小學弟」Canna、Ellim、Gumayushi、Kuri都是自T1自家的青訓體系產出,四位預計將各自擔任上路、打野、ADC、輔助的替補位置或是戰術考量。
