After weeks of gaming, T1 vs BLG was the Worlds 2024 Grand Final, and watch a match it was set up to be.
T1 vs BLG, somehow we go into a Grand Final with T1 not only being the underdog but being the major outsiders. If we base it on pre-Worlds predictions, that is. As for T1 at Worlds, well, it’s been typical T1 at Worlds. The team has consistently managed to get ahead and beat teams that they were not expected to beat. Can they do it one more time in the Grand Final?
One thing’s for sure, it’s been a crazy Worlds 2024 for both sides. T1 also had a close call with the West, though ultimately found G2 to be a much easier opponent than many expected. Now, these two titans go head-to-head to secure a spot against Bilibili Gaming in the Grand Final. AS for BLG, they’ve gone by fairly unassuming this Worlds, and will be heavy favourites for this game.
T1 vs BLG Worlds 2024 Recap
Below you will find our full live recap of this Bo5 series. We’ll update it throughout each match.
T1 vs BLG Game 1 Recap
It’s the start BLG wanted, picking up the first blood in the T1 jungle as they set the perfect trap. BLG continued to lead the early game, with T1 looking out of sorts of the Grand Final stage early on. While the game went quiet for a bit after the early kills. A big moment for T1 came when they managed to steal away some of the Grubs from BLG, and close the gold gap slightly thanks to some tower plates. T1 immediately followed that up by getting two kills on the top side of the map to almost even out the gold lead. We very much have a Game 1 on our hands already.
BLG, not be outdone, came back flying into the game thanks to an amazing play in the mid lane. Ash is able to secure a stun with the ultimate, and the team fight win saw BLG snowball into 3 towers, and a 4k lead. BLG never let off the push, with Baron secured so early, by the 25th minute BLG were deep inside the T1 base and going for the win. T1 did what they could, but it was next to nothing. Another Ash Ultimate secured an opening kill and with minions all over the base it was Game 1 secured for BLG.

T1 vs BLG Game 2 Recap
Look away, T1 fans. It’s a repeat of Game 1, as T1 is caught out, and first blood goes over to BLG once again. T1 did get a kill back, but BLG remained ahead. That looked to be changing, however, with T1 catching some big kills in the top side, claiming two kills on BLG and going into the lead for the first time. T1 wants to make this a series, claiming more kills and gaining more of an advantage. The game is the opposite of Game 1, with BLG chasing T1 around like a lost puppy.
In typical T1 style, once they had a lead, they went back to playing the map and playing the long game. T1 managed to get a Baron shortly after, after BLOG attempted to take out Faker. With Baron, T1 couldn’t be stopped as they charged into the BLG base. As the players fell, as the did the turrets and we were tied up in Game 2.
