The golden faces of Vietnamese eSports gather at VPBank Presents T1 in Vietnam: The Promise Fulfilled
The Vietnamese League of Legends community is more excited than ever as a lineup of top domestic players will be joining forces in a historic showmatch against T1, the six-time World Championship winners, including the "Immortal Demon King" Faker. The All-Star lineup features players who have captivated millions of League of Legends fans for the past decade.

Levi – the pioneer of the All-Star team – who recently retired, immediately "grabbed his mouse and hit the road" upon hearing that his teammates were reuniting. Despite leaving the professional spotlight, Levi remains an enduring icon in the hearts of Vietnamese gamers. His return this time isn't for the sake of a title, but rather a reaffirmation of his intense love for League of Legends and its fanbase.
Following closely behind Levi is SofM – the "jungle god" who once dominated the LPL (the region's leading esports league), and who recently announced his return to the professional scene, much to the excitement of millions of followers. SofM and Levi wearing the All-Star jersey together is like a "dream come true," as two living icons of Vietnamese League of Legends will team up. SofM also expressed his excitement on social media, writing: "This is an opportunity for me to interact, learn, and compete against top players from around the world right here on home soil."
That lineup will be even stronger with the addition of Kiaya – a top lane prodigy with consistent performance and incredible carry potential. The combination of Kiaya – a new generation player – and Archie (Muội Mập) – a veteran of Vietnamese League of Legends – brings both excitement and skill to the All-Star lineup. Archie – who once faced T1 (then SKT) at MSI 2017 – reunites with Faker after 8 years, marking the end of a historical cycle. Meanwhile, Kiaya will be the main offensive force in the top lane, providing a balance between youth and experience for the entire team.
And of course, the All-Star lineup wouldn't be complete without the name that makes the stage explode whenever he appears: Teacher Ba . Without even discussing his expertise, Teacher Ba is the soul of every event, the link between the gaming community and the big stage. His charisma and charm are unparalleled. His presence transforms the showmatch from just a game into an emotional feast, where laughter, memories, and community spirit merge into one.
Each of the five players represents a different era and role, but when combined into a team, they symbolize the evolution of Vietnamese League of Legends over the past decade. The highlight match at VPBank Presents T1 in Vietnam: The Promise Fulfilled is not just a showmatch, but a "living memory" of the best of Vietnamese esports.
T1 takes the stage - a historic milestone for Vietnamese eSports.
Of all the esports events that have taken place in Vietnam, none have generated as much curiosity and excitement as the match between All-Star Vietnam and T1. From the moment VPBank officially announced they would be bringing the T1 team and Faker to Vietnam, social media exploded with hundreds of thousands of posts, comments, and reaction videos from Vietnamese fans. It's not hard to understand why – T1 is not only the strongest esports team on the planet, but also an icon for a generation of League of Legends enthusiasts worldwide.

This also marked T1's first fan meeting in Vietnam. From Faker – the "Immortal Demon King" – to star players Keria, Oner, Doran, and Peyz, they thrilled millions of Vietnamese fans. Even the T1 fan page confirmed they "can't wait to meet T1," along with a post introducing the event in Vietnam – showing just how excited they were.
Therefore, when two teams – one embodying the spirit of Vietnamese League of Legends, the other representing global excellence – step onto the main stage, it will be an unforgettable moment. A match where Vietnamese fans can witness firsthand Faker's skill usage, SofM's brilliance, Levi's team calls, Kiaya's dominance, and Thầy Ba's comedic antics…
The historic showmatch between the All-Star Vietnam team and T1, taking place on December 21st, will be held on the main stage at the Vietnam Exhibition Center (VEC), featuring a 500m² LED screen. It is expected to attract thousands of live viewers and millions more online. This is a unique opportunity for the Vietnamese gaming community to meet their idols, interact with international superstars, and fully experience the spirit of eSports.
The day before (December 20th), the All-Star players will also participate in the Four-Team Tournament – where the four teams, Fire Dragon, Earth Dragon, Wind Dragon, and Water Dragon, will clash in a spectacular showdown, with captains Levi, SofM, Teacher Ba, and Kiaya respectively. Cosplay activities, a T1 championship trophy exhibition, a game zone, food stalls, and a secondary stage will also take place continuously throughout the two days, transforming VPBank's event into the most spectacular eSports festival ever held in Vietnam.
The event's immense popularity led to many fan meeting tickets selling out within hours. Currently, only two ticket categories remain: Diamond 1 (priced at 3,900,000 VND) and Diamond 2 (priced at 2,800,000 VND). With these two ticket categories, fans will receive exclusive gifts such as: a limited edition Coolmate T-shirt (for Diamond 1 tickets), a handwritten letter from T1, a full-team photocard with rounded corners, a tote bag, and a cheering fan to witness the historic match firsthand.
T1 is eager to come to Vietnam, the All-Star Vietnam roster has been finalized, and millions of League of Legends fans are ready for their dream showdown at VPBank Presents T1 in Vietnam: The Promise Fulfilled.
The VPBank Presents T1 in Vietnam: The Promise Fulfilled event, organized by VPBank and co-organized by FPT Play, features sponsors VEC, VNGGames, Red Bull, VPBank Securities, and Samsung Odyssey.
