T1 LoL made an announcement the day after LCK Spring Playoffs Finals that all the starting lineup members except Lee "Guymayusi" Min-hyeong have tested positive for COVID. One of the coaches, Kim "moment" Ji-hwan, also tested positive. There can be new cases among other participants of the final event of LCK Spring Split, but taking into account the safety measures around LoL Park, the restrictions could have been effective enough.

T1's roster went to the last match with starting symptoms of the virus, as one of the players felt so bad that he had only an hour of sleep before the game. The tests were negative for the whole roster though, and club specifically mentioned that they would never risk the health of their players and opponents by entering the competition while being sick. Despite all the problems, T1 still managed to claim a 3:1 win over Gen.G. Next, they will get prepared for MSI 2022 starting on May 10th, after they are out of the quarantine.
