'''T1''' is a professional eSports organization based in South Korea. It was founded in Seoul in 2002 as the ''StarCraft: Brood War'' team Orion by legendary player BoxeR, considered to be a forefather of modern E-Sports, and in 2004, it became SK Telecom T1 after its title sponsor, Korean telecommunications giant SK Telecom. The organization also became widely known for its ''League of Legends'' success, which includes 3 World Championships (2013, 2015, and 2016). In February 2019, SKT T1 announced a partnership with Comcast Spectacor, under which the organization would rebrand to T1 (although their ''League'' division is competing as SKT T1 through 2019).<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20190225005249/en/SK-Telecom-Comcast-Spectacor-Announce-Global-Esports|title=SK Telecom and Comcast Spectacor Announce Global Esports Joint Venture|publisher=Business Wire|author=|date=2019-02-25}}</ref> | '''T1''' is a professional eSports organization based in South Korea.
