T1 appoints Sacy as head coach, reuniting him with TenZ

T1 has appointed Sacy as head coach, completing another major step in its international roster rebuild.

The Brazilian joins a player lineup featuring stax, TenZ, BuZz, iZu and crashies, with Sungmin supporting him on the coaching staff.

Championship experience moves behind the team

Sacy won Champions 2022 with LOUD before moving to Sentinels, where he helped win Masters Madrid in 2024 alongside TenZ.

He retired from regular professional competition after the 2024 season and subsequently worked as a content creator for MIBR. His appointment at T1 brings him back to the VCT environment in a coaching position.

Sungmin supports the transition

Sungmin brings experience working in an English-speaking environment through his time coaching Mizzou Esports in the United States.

T1’s rebuilt lineup combines its Korean core with TenZ and crashies, while Sacy adds a further international presence behind the players.

The team is scheduled to debut its new roster at Red Bull Home Ground in December, before beginning its 2027 VCT Pacific campaign at January’s Kickoff.
