Few expected KT Rolster to reach the 2025 LoL Worlds grand finals after a shaky performance through much of the year. But KT’s performance at Worlds more than makes up for its prior shortcomings. T1 was a more consistent performer in domestic LCK competition, but like KT, had largely under-performed through much of the year relative to expectations.

With both teams having something to prove in this final, it’s guaranteed to be one of the biggest League of Legends spectacles of the year. The match also has some betting picks with potentially high returns that bettors may be interested in diving into.

T1:

T1 is the favorite to win the match across all esports betting sites, and that’s no surprise considering that the team has been in this position many times before. By contrast, this is the first real shot that KT Rolster has at winning Worlds, or any event of this magnitude. KT also has multiple rookies who haven’t faced the pressure that the Worlds grand final holds.

Still, KT’s surprisingly consistent performance at Worlds has put it on a higher pedestal than most expected. T1’s recent performance suggests that the team will at least give KT a tough fight, but KT has overcome even tough opposition to get here.

Who will get first blood in the T1 vs KT Rolster Worlds grand final?

T1 is famous for having strong early games, but the team hasn’t really showcased that in this tournament. From Oner getting caught by surprise in his own jungle to Doran getting tower dove after playing passively, T1 hasn’t found as many first bloods recently. By contrast, KT has been calculating but aggressive with its early-game plays, giving it more first blood potential.

PerfecT was previously considered to be KT’s weak link, taking far too many deaths in domestic matches. Peter was a close second as the team’s support. The strategic overhaul the team has gone through has eliminated many of these issues however, so it could be a good idea to side with KT for getting first blood here.

How many maps will the T1 vs KT Rolster grand final have?

KT Rolster and T1 have been on even footing recently. While T1 has a much better head-to-head score against KT, KT Rolster’s recent 2-0 win against T1 in the previous LCK split can’t be ignored. KT also defeated Gen.G recently, a feat T1 hadn’t managed in a long time.

While KT is likely in a stronger position right now, T1’s advantages include more experience under pressure and a wider champion pool. This suggests that the two teams will likely go back and forth in winning games, potentially resulting in a fifth game. The over on 4.5 games has a potentially decent return and could be the way to go. It may also be a good idea to bank on KT winning the first game, considering the team will be coming fresh off a major upset victory against Gen.G.

Where to bet on the T1 vs KT Rolster grand finals match

While it may initially seem overwhelming to new bettors, most betting platforms actually make the process of placing a bet fairly straightforward. Those looking to bet on the 2025 Worlds grand finals match between KT Rolster and T1 need only identify the platform on which they want to bet, and make the picks they most believe in.

Stake is offering special promos around the finals match that bettors can still take advantage of, including a “first map insurance” promo that offers refunds up to $100 if your winning pick loses the match but at least manages to win the first game played. It’s a great way to tilt the odds a little bit further in your favor, no matter which team you’re picking.
