The 2024 MSI Mid-Season Championship has finally kicked off today, and with this year's event in Chengdu and the winner team going straight to the World Finals at the end of the year, MSI is more important than ever. On the first match day of MSI, the first will be the two BO3 matches in Group A of the play-in stage, which will be FLY vs. PSG and T1 vs. EST. Among them, the popular team T1 made their debut at this year's MSI, and their performance was naturally highly anticipated by the audience.
Chengdu MSI's opener was played by the LCS second seed FLY against the PCS veteran PSG, but the opening match did not receive much attention due to the weak and unpopular teams of the two teams. However, because the strength level of the two teams is close, it has become the most exciting game on the first day of the MSI competition.
The first two games of the two sides were tied, and it was only in the deciding game that the winner was finally decided, and in this game, FLY, the second seed in the LCS region, also chose the black technology of the top laner Olaf, and finally relied on the excellent performance of the veteran Jensen clockwork to seal the victory, and defeated the opponent 2-1 to advance to the upper bracket. This game makes people sigh that the veteran Jensen is in good shape, and it is indeed not easy to have such a highlight performance in the game again when he is close to 30 years old.
In the most watched match of the day between T1 and EST, the final result was no suspense, and T1 easily ended with a 2-0 clean sheet. However, in this game, the amazing fighting spirit shown by EST, as a wild card team, still made the audience give them full recognition, and losing this BO3 is indeed a gap in strength. T1 will next face FLY in the upper bracket, with the winner being the first to advance to the main event.
