T1 has once again proven their dominance by clinching the title at the 2024 League of Legends World Championship. As a reward for their incredible performance, the team will receive a new set of commemorative skins that fans eagerly anticipate.
Each player has the opportunity to choose a champion for their skin based on their tournament play. Here’s a closer look at the eligible champions for T1 and the considerations behind their choices.
Eligibility Criteria for Worlds Skins
To qualify for a Worlds skin, a T1 player must have met one of the following conditions:
- Played the champion in at least two games during the Swiss Stage.
- Played the champion in at least one game in the Knockout or Bracket Stage.
T1 Zeus
Choi “Zeus” Woo-je, T1’s top laner, can choose from the following champions:
- Jax, Camille, Rumble, Gnar, Maokai, Ornn, and Gragas.
In a post-match interview, Zeus mentioned he is leaning toward Gragas, Camille, and Ornn. Last year, he chose Jayce and even received a Prestige Edition skin for his MVP performance.
T1 Oner
Moon “Oner” Hyeon-jun, T1’s jungler, has these options:
- Xin Zhao, Poppy, Vi, Nocturne, Sejuani, Skarner, and Kindred.
Oner’s choice last year was Lee Sin, a popular champion who had previously been honored with an SKT T1 skin for Bengi. This year, Oner has expressed interest in either Vi or Xin Zhao for his Worlds 2024 skin.
T1 Faker
The legendary Lee “Faker” Sang-hyeok, known as the Unkillable Demon King, is ready to add another skin to his collection. His eligible champions include:
- Galio, Sylas, Yone, Ahri, and Akali.
Faker, who was awarded Finals MVP this year, will receive a Prestige version of his chosen skin. While he hasn’t confirmed a specific choice, he mentioned he would select a champion that fans would appreciate.
Since Ahri recently received a Hall of Legends skin, she may not be eligible for another skin this year. Last year, Faker picked Orianna for his Worlds skin, and with this new addition, his total count will rise to six Worlds skins and nine skins overall, including the Hall of Legends series for Ahri and LeBlanc.
T1 Gumayusi
Lee “Gumayusi” Min-hyung, T1’s AD carry, has these champions to choose from:
- Xayah, Ashe, Caitlyn, Varus, Jhin, and Kalista.
Gumayusi stated he’s considering Jhin or Varus for his skin this year but is a bit undecided. He has mentioned that he’s less likely to pick Xayah if Keria doesn’t go with Rakan.
Additionally, Jhin already has two Worlds skins (SKT T1 Jhin and DWG Jhin), which makes Gumayusi lean more towards Varus, despite not having as strong of a connection to the champion. Last year, he chose Jinx.
T1 Keria
Ryu “Keria” Min-seok, T1’s support player, has the following options:
- Poppy, Renata Glasc, Braum, Pyke, Rakan, Bard, and Leona.
Keria shared that he’s leaning toward Renata Glasc or Pyke for his next skin. His previous choice was Bard, which likely makes him ineligible for Bard again this year.
When to Expect the T1 2024 Worlds Skins
These skins are anticipated to release in late 2025, around the time of the next World Championship. T1 will collaborate closely with the League of Legends skins team to create memorable designs and add easter eggs for fans, ensuring these skins showcase both the players’ personalities and their iconic moments in the 2024 Worlds.
Conclusion
As T1 prepares to unveil their skins for the 2024 Worlds, the anticipation builds among fans and the League of Legends community. Each player’s selection not only reflects their personal style but also engages their fanbase, ensuring that the skins resonate with the broader community.
With their championship legacy on the line, the choices they make will undoubtedly become treasured parts of League of Legends history.
