Bilibili Gaming vs T1 Prediction, Odds, Best Bets - League of Legends World Championship 2026

Bilibili Gaming swept the only team nobody had beaten at Worlds 2026, and their reward is the one fixture they have never won at this event. T1 beat them in the 2024 final, and the champions stand between them and another one on Sunday.

The Matchup

Bilibili Gaming and T1 meet in Allen on Sunday with a place in the Grand Final at Barclays Center on the line, and the history between them sits all on one side. T1 have won all three of their meetings with Bilibili Gaming at a World Championship, most recently the 2024 final, which T1 took 3-2.

Bilibili Gaming took the long road through the Swiss stage at 3-2, losing to Movistar KOI on the opening day and to Top Esports in a best of three, before a 2-0 sweep of Hanwha Life Esports sent the MSI champions home and claimed the last quarterfinal place. T1 qualified at 3-1, their only loss a best of one against Dplus KIA, and beat Karmine Corp 3-1 on Friday night in the last quarterfinal.

Bilibili Gaming start Bin, Xun, Knight, Viper and ON, the five who have played every game of their run. T1 start Doran, Oner, Faker, Peyz and Keria, the five who have played every game of theirs. Neither team has reported a substitute or a role swap. It is a best of five with Fearless Draft on patch 26.20, and Bilibili Gaming get one extra day of rest after playing Thursday while T1 played Friday.

Key Factors

Bilibili Gaming's quarterfinal was the most complete series anyone has played in these knockouts. Dplus KIA arrived unbeaten and had not dropped a single game at this event, and Bilibili Gaming swept them 3-0, outkilling them 62-28 across the three games while taking 14 of the 15 dragons and all four Barons. The engine was the mid and jungle pair.

Knight died only twice in the whole series and finished with 11 kills and 33 assists, Xun added 20 kills and 22 assists of his own, 12 of those kills on Naafiri in the first game, and ON recorded 43 assists across the three games before Bin closed the series with 12 kills on Jax in the third. When a team controls dragons that completely, the late game stops being a question, and T1's patient objective setups are exactly what that control is built to squeeze.

T1's answer is the bot lane, and it is in full voice. Peyz and Keria carried the quarterfinal against Karmine Corp. Peyz took the first game over on Yunara, piling up a triple kill as T1 built a gold lead of more than 10,000, and in the fourth game his Miss Fortune finished deathless with another triple kill as T1 closed around the Dragon Soul they secured at the 32-minute mark.

The honest counterpoint is the whole weight of this fixture. Faker, Oner and Keria have won the last three World Championships, T1 have never lost to Bilibili Gaming at this event, and the one path that has never worked for Bilibili Gaming at Worlds runs straight through this opponent.

If Peyz and Keria win their lane the way they did on Friday and the series stretches long, T1's depth in a Fearless draft has ended this exact run before. Bilibili Gaming's case only holds if the early objective control travels, because taking dragons away from T1 early is how the champions end up chasing a game for once.
