Not long ago, T1 continued the good state of the spring competition, easily defeated GEN in the LCK spring final to win the cup with a total victory record, which is T1's tenth league championship, ranking first in the number of championships in the four major divisions, at the same time, T1 and Faker also became the first teams in the world to lock an MSI seat.
However, there have been some small episodes in the setting of MSI, although Fist announced that this year's MSI will be held as scheduled, and it is in Busan, South Korea.
However, domestic netizens are worried that the foreign "lying flat" epidemic prevention policy will affect the LPL players who go to the competition, and may even affect the normal holding of the summer competition, and have suggested that the LPL give up participating in this year's MSI, or in a remote manner.
The views of LCK netizens are somewhat different, they are naturally seated LPL can participate, so that T1 can justifiably defeat the LPL to win the championship, and then increase the gold content of the championship, in summary, MSI will probably be held online.
The LPL spring championship has not yet been released, but the schedules of other divisions have not been affected, and shortly after T1 won the league championship, the second team in the world to lock in the MSI was created, that is, the IW team in Turkey.
IW (Istanbul Wildcat) swept Galatasaray to win the Turkish Winter Championship, which will also be the second time that IW has participated in MSI, and in 2021 IW has also participated in MSI, and MAD, PSG and PNG are in The Finalist Group C, although they won MAD once, but they ultimately failed to qualify from the group.
The third team to lock up MSI is LJL Japan's DFM team, which defeated SG in five sets to win the league championship and also decided to participate in this year's MSI.
This is also the third time that DFM has participated in MSI's competition after 2019 and 2021, but the first two times they have failed to break through the group stage. Then came today's protagonist, G2, who swept RGE in three straight sets in the LEC final to win the ninth LEC championship trophy in team history.
Naturally, G2 also locked in an MSI spot, becoming the fourth team in the world to participate in the mid-season, and G2's 9 league titles, only 10 less than T1's, is the second most champions in the four major leagues.
Ten finals, nine wins, LEC, your emperor is back, G2 also achieved four consecutive championships in 16-17 and 19-20, and the only time G2 did not win the championship in the final was to lose to old rival FNC.
It is worth mentioning that in this playoffs, G2 also lost to FNC in the first round, thus falling into the loser group, but from the loser group, G2 seems to have changed, playing four consecutive 3-0, and finally won the championship.
In the matchup of the loser group, Caps first met his old teammate Perkz, followed by a single Vetheo in the first team, a single Humanoid in the second team, and a single Larssen in the third team.
So, both Caps and G2 made history, with Caps becoming the first singles player in LEC history to beat a singles winner in one, two, three, and three teams, starting with the losers' group, G2 played four consecutive 3-0 titles.
Even so, for the LPL, the biggest opponent of this MSI is still the T1 led by Faker, as for G2, it all depends on fate, after winning the LEC championship, T1 is also shouting T1 in the official blog, indicating that the next place to be crossed out is T1.
