During a fan meet-and-greet with Vietnamese fans of the League of Legends team T1, a surprising moment brought the entire audience to tears when an image of Olympia "climber" Pham Anh Tho appeared in a video being shown.
The girl appearing in the video is Pham Anh Tho - the winner of the second week of March, first quarter of the 25th season of "Road to Olympia". Born in 2008, currently a student in class 12A8 at Nguyen Van Troi High School (Ha Tinh), Anh Tho quickly made an impression on the audience from her first appearance thanks to her radiant smile, confident demeanor, and witty, intelligent personality.
Right in her Olympia registration form, the female student surprised many by sharing her hobby of "immersing herself in top-tier esports matches." This detail became an interesting bridge for MC Khanh Vy to recall a famous commentary from the 2023 League of Legends World Championship and ask: "Tho, what's in your heart?" Without hesitation, Anh Tho responded with an answer that made the studio burst into laughter and caused a stir on social media: "In my heart, there's Kanavi waiting, Faker rushing in to push Ruler back, Oner catching him, and Zeus shutting down the network."
That quick-witted and charming exchange quickly went viral across various platforms, receiving countless compliments. Not only was she highly praised for her intelligence and quick thinking, but Anh Thơ also made the T1 fan community proud when they discovered a special "fellow fan" – someone who is both an esports enthusiast and an outstanding Olympia contestant.
Beyond social media, the journey of the female student from Ha Tinh to win first place this week was also highly praised by experts and viewers. She took the lead right from the Warm-up round with 55 points, then quickly found the obstacle with just one horizontal question and the first clue. In the Speed Round, Anh Tho continued to show consistent performance by answering one question correctly, earning an additional 40 points and maintaining her leading position with 165 points. At the end of the competition, she excellently reached 205 points, convincingly winning the laurel wreath.
Besides her achievements at Olympia, Anh Thơ also boasts an impressive academic record. She won first prize in the provincial-level History competition for gifted students and third prize in the district-level English competition. Sharing her study methods, the student said she often uses mind maps to organize her knowledge and humorously revealed her habit of "liking to study in bed," a common detail that many young people find relatable.
At T1's fan meeting in Vietnam, the fans erupted in excitement when the organizers showed a compilation video of special moments created by Vietnamese fans as gifts to the players. Anh Thơ's image appearing on the LED screen caused the entire audience to cheer, expressing their delight and surprise. This interesting appearance not only thrilled T1 fans but also brought Anh Thơ's name back into the spotlight, sparking lively discussions on social media.
Following the event, Anh Thơ shared the video on social media with the caption: "I'm the proudest person I've ever been." The student from Hà Tĩnh expressed her joy and happiness at being "present" at the event of her favorite team. The clip quickly attracted nearly 30,000 views, once again confirming the appeal of this talented girl.
