The hope of Europe beat unbeatable uber teams, lost to underdogs and now it’s bewitched

Last minute The world stood up after Putins decision in

At League of Legends, the MSI 2022 tournament is proving to be quite an odd event for European hope G2 Esports. Because they managed to defeat the seemingly unbeatable giants from South Korea, T1, and the Chinese from RNG. In the first 2 days of the free-for-all stage, you won all 4 games. But from day 3 nothing worked in LoL anymore. Now G2 has to worry about getting into the semi-finals: Because after a defeat against a small team and the loss of a long winning streak, G2 seems cursed.

What’s playing right now?? MSI 2022 sees the 11 regional champions go head-to-head in League of Legends.

In the preliminary round there were 3 groups and the 3 teams from the major regions remained undefeated in their groups:

  • T1 from South Korea hadn’t lost a series in 2022 anyway and just marched through their opponents at MSI.
  • the Chinese from RNG had to repeat 3 games because of ping problems and complained about the unfair treatment. But they looked very strong and didn’t show any weakness.
  • G2 Esports were actually rather shaky candidates, but played well and remained undefeated. Even before the tournament, G2 had a long winning streak. They have been unbeaten in a professional game since the end of March.
  • After the preliminary round, the teams from the “small regions” were already kicked out, only the 6 largest teams played in the rumble round “everyone against everyone” to look for the 4 best teams. 4 teams from Asia made it into the Rumble Stage, as well as representatives from Europe and North America.

    The next new champion will soon be involved in LoL:

    This is how weird it is for G2: The Europeans of G2 had announced ahead of the tournament that they were desperate to win against T1, the stars of LoL who hadn’t lost all year.

    And in fact, G2 even managed to do that: In the first days of the Rumble Stage, G2 was actually able to beat both giants from Asia: Both RNG and T1 lost to the European champions.

    G2 was able to defeat the T1, which seemed so strong in 2022, although it seemed hopelessly behind in the initial phase. After 20 minutes, G2 were 5,800 gold short.

    But the team combination of Yasuo, Diana, Ornn, Kalista and Rakan was superior in teamfights and G2 actually managed to win. T1 swore, as usual, to take terrible revenge on them.

    G2 was simply superior in teamfights.

    After that, G2, because it was so nice, slammed RNG away, the other favorites for the tournament victory. G2 banned Gankplank and went for an explosive team combo with Kai’Sa, Nautilus, Wukong, Vladimir and Zoe.

    This time G2 was even able to keep up in the early game and keep the game balanced until you could play to your strengths in the mid- and endgame (via dotesports).

    Everything was fine back then: G2 handles RNG.

    On day 2, the Americans Evil Geniuses and the Saigon Buffalos (Vietnam) were dealt with.

    After Day 2, G2 were brilliant at 4-0.

    How did it go after that? Now you might think: Things are going brilliantly for G2, having defeated both tournament favorites and dominating the first 2 days. G2 even had a winning streak of 24 games across tournaments, because they had also marched through Europe. The last time G2 lost was on March 26th.

    But on day 3 the plague began: Ironically, against PSG Talon, a team from Hong Kong, they picked up the 1st defeat of the tournament. After that nothing worked.

    The return games against G2, again against PSG and against T1 were lost.

    G2 are now at 4-4 and could still be out if the losing streak continues. Both Evil Geniuses (4-4) and PSG Talon (3-5) could overtake them if G2 continues to falter .

    The last day will decide whether to continue. G2 has to fight the Saigon Buffalos and Evil Geniuses, actually 2 solvable tasks, but in 2022 everything seems possible at G2.

    It would be a special honor for the Americans to kick G2 out of the tournament in a deciding battle:
