With the 2023 MSI loser group final coming, recently, MSI officially released a promotional video of BLG and T1 battle according to the custom. It is worth mentioning that in this promotional video, BLG's singles player Bin naturally became the protagonist. Bin did not hide his arrogance at all, directly saying, "X respects the Faker player very much, he has always been very powerful and his strength has not declined, but I think the overall strength of T1 is not as good as ours." Last year, your strongest state met me or lost to me, this year you obviously changed a lot, you still met me, this time will be more ruthless, I am the final protagonist! ”
As the so-called loser does not lose, the current BLG and Bin are fully qualified to go crazy. After all, BLG swept GEN 3-0 on aggregate in the losers' bracket. You know, GEN has played a full Bo5 with T1 in the last two matches. In the 2023 LCK spring final, GEN defeated T1 with an aggregate score of 3-2 to win the championship. In the MSI main match, although T1 completed its revenge on GEN, the two sides also fought until the fifth game. In other words, from the overall situation of the two games between GEN and T1, being able to play Bo5 in two consecutive games seems to mean that the two teams of T1 and GEN are quite close in terms of understanding of the game and overall strength. But under such circumstances, since BLG can keep a clean sheet on GEN, it means that BLG also has a full chance to beat T1, which is very close to GEN.
In addition to the BLG clean sheet GEN gave Bin a lot of confidence, the last time I played with T1 actually gave Bin a lot of confidence. Because in the 2022MSI, RNG at that time managed to beat T1 with an aggregate score of 3-2. Although in the 2022 MSI game, Bin actually had a relatively large ups and downs in his state, but when facing T1, Bin's Gwen still gave T1 a lot of pressure. And what's more interesting is that RNG was able to successfully beat T1 at that time, and the performance of Wei and the double road gala and Xiaoming was quite good. But from the overall performance of this MSI, Xun's performance was not worse than Wei at that time, and the duo road Elk and Missing compared with GALA and Bob at that time, at least in the match with GEN, they played a very dominant role. In addition, Bin's performance in this MSI is indeed better than the previous MSI, which naturally indicates that the current BLG is no worse than the MSI champion team RNG at that time.
Finally, it is naturally Bin's overall feeling about the T1 team, and the reason why Bin feels that this year's T1 is obviously a lot better. On the one hand, it is because Zeus, who played the best in the previous MSI, seems to have been smoothed out in this MSI, and it is more about playing the role of tool man in the T1 team; On the other hand, it is the Faker player, who is also a more preferred tool man from the current choice, and you can also see the changes in the T1 team. Because in the last MSI, Faker at least many times came up with heroes with a very strong rhythm, such as Tanuki and Demon Ji, and in this MSI, Faker seems to be more willing to give the ball to his teammates and let his teammates go to Carry. Although such a change does not mean that T1 has really changed, it can at least reflect that the overall offensive ability and offensive desire of the T1 team are worse than last year.
Of course, even if T1 is really not as good as last season, it was a team of kings after all. Therefore, it is hoped that BLG will be able to despise the opponent strategically, but value the opponent tactically. No regrets, play 100% of your form and win T1!
