I'm a HUGE SK Telecom T1 fan. I love SKT and always will. But this post is not about me or SKT. This post is for KT and all its fans.

WARNING: SPL`15 spoilers ahead. DO NOT read on if you haven't watched KT vs Jin Air Postseason Playoffs yet.

Dear KT fans:

I really am sorry about the way KT went out this season. After defeating SKT in the finals last year and winning the whole thing, this 4th place finish must be really demoralizing for you guys. Believe it or not, I am actually upset that KT went out this way. With a stacked roster consisting of (T)Flash, (T)TY, (P)Zest, (P)Stats, and (Z)Life, it makes no sense for KT to perform the way they did this season.

But as disappointed as you may be, you guys should be proud of how much you were able to achieve in Round 4. Down 1-3 in the regular season with playoffs hopes looking slim to none, you guys went on to win 3 matches in a row and advanced into the playoffs with a final score of 4-3 (3-0ed Samsung in the final match). Then you went on to take down SBENU, CJ, and SKT in the round playoffs and grabbed first place. As pissed off as I was about SKT's loss, I fully acknowledged the beauty and finesse of KT's performance that round. The better team deserved the win, and the better team got it in the end.

Going into the postseason playoffs, I liquibetted for KT to win easily against Jin Air. So the fact that you guys went out 0-2, and on top of that, to a reverse all-kill no less, really does suck hard. In the first match, Super was the only player to grab a win while your core four went down way too easily. And then in the second match, a Flash all-kill was denied. Just how cruel can fate really be...?

Why am I writing this? It is because SKT and KT are rivals. I truly believe that the telecom rivalry is the single greatest thing about eSports team leagues. We hate you and you hate us. But we bring out the best in one another, and SKT vs KT is rarely ever disappointing. SKT wouldn't find their drive or ambition to become a stronger and better team if they didn't have a rival like KT Rolster. You guys are the reason why SKT works so hard. There won't be a SKT vs KT finals this year for Proleague, but KT will always be a strong team, so don't lose hope.

Pick yourselves back up. Learn from this. Become stronger. Become faster. Become smarter. Come back next year fully prepared and stronger than ever. We will be waiting for you on the grand finals stage.

Go KT! [image loading]

Thank you. TT

I would have felt the same way about SKT and their fans, had things gone this way for you.

I also must admit I will be secretly cheering for you to win because of the way you played all year long. It will be even more dramatic if CJ or JA steal the championship form you!

But goddammit December cannot come soon enough...

SKT never bombs out of anything so I don't see how the sentiment even applies. With SKT their fans are picking two values between 95% and 90%. With KT it's picking a range between 100% and 0%.

Nothing beats the SKT vs KT, was really hoping it could happen again after our Round 4 showing.

Can't be too upset though, after our awful start to the season and then barely making the playoffs it was a tall order to keep the momentum going.

Til next year :D

I really had a shitty day yesterday. Came home. Watched Vods. And went to sleep with a bitter taste in my mouth.

I was really sure we could pull this off, i was planning to go to Korea for the finals

Oh well, sOs is a player i disklike but he won through strategy i felt. That reminded me of some of Boxer's build. Not as good though.

It will be weird having no one to cheer for in SPL Oh well. maybe CJ for the sake of the past.

I don't hate SKT, but losing to them (or any other player than sOs) instead would've been much worse. I'll be rooting for JAGW.

I love how you imply that SKT will wait in the finals for KT next year. Like "c'mon, heads up, we're better than you".

Well they got what they deserved for trying to solve things buying ace players from other teams.

FlaSh really hasn't been up to snuff recently (other than match 2) Life never performs well in team leagues, Stats was amazing earlier this year, but something went horribly wrong recently. I feel like KT coaches have been very irresponsible with how they did this season. I feel like they could have done a lot of stuff differently. Hats off to Zest for picking himself up past couple of rounds, really a shame Super didnt appear more often, not to mention the fall of Stats. These guys can do well, best of luck to them next round.

If KT didn't have Zest, I doubt they would've made it into the playoffs. He single-handily lifted KT, just like last year. What KT needs to do, is not rely on ONE player (be it Stats, TY or most importantly Zest). To be honest, where would KT be without Zest? They need to bring their A-game and they need all the players to do it, not just Zest.
Unlike SKT, KT has carriers in Zest, Stats and TY(no pun intended), but for the players they have they lack the results compared to the prestige of the players.
SKT only had one all-kill (PartinG, who isn't in SKT anymore) this year and last season combined, whereas KT had 3 (1 Last year, 2 this year), but with their deep line-up it didn't matter whether they can all-kill or not, All their players are Top-notch and had solid performances all year round, not just in proleague but also in all premier tournaments, where there was 3 SKT finals (S2SL Season 2, IEM gamescom and KeSPA Cup)
KT really needs to step it up for next year

KT needs to change uniforms. You can't win with this thing on your shoulders.
