After the MSI Play-In Bracket Winners' Bracket, T1 and TES advanced to the main event. Although the result was expected by many people, the process was still a bit thrilling, T1 played not so rigorously and gave a lot of opportunities, but it still won by crushing, while TES exposed a bigger problem, Nakano made a lot of mistakes in the winning game, and the losing game was even more brutal. After the game, FNC top laner Oscarinin bluntly said in an interview that 369 is not stronger than himself.
FNC's interview with Oscarinin is as follows, in the face of questions from foreign media, he bluntly said: I don't think 369's strength is stronger than me, I feel like I'm playing against people of the same level. And bluntly said that he was a little nervous in this game, and if he could play a little calmer, I don't know what would happen.
In fact, from the perspective of the entire BO3, Oscarinin said that there is no problem, the difference in strength between the three games on the road is the second game, Oscarinin's green steel shadow suppressed 369's Quisanti on the line, and even completed the double kill in the middle of the game 1V2. And in the first and third games, both sides were open on the line, 369 didn't take any advantage, and the development of oscarinin didn't fall behind.
It can only be said that 369's performance is a bit disappointing, everyone's expectations for him are very high, but as a result, he didn't have an advantage in the lane, and the play of team battles is also very average. Of course, 369 is not a top laner who is known for his alignment, his advantage is in team battles and support, but when facing the European and American top laners who are not strong enough, there is no advantage in the lane, which is indeed a bit surprising. And 369 himself also realized that he didn't play well this time, and gave himself a 3-point evaluation in the post-game interview, and said that he was not satisfied with his performance and made too many mistakes.
On the other hand, the biggest problem on TES's side is Nakano, creme played an international tournament for the first time, coupled with the limited hero pool, there is a reason for his poor performance, it depends on his subsequent adjustments. And Tian's problems have been exposed in many major tournaments, and even the English commentator can't help but complain after watching the TES game: Tian often has psychological breakdowns, I hope he can overcome this, he can actually play well.
The strength shown by TES in the play-in tournament is obviously not enough, and when it enters the MSI main event, the opponent's strength will be much stronger, and it is obviously unrealistic for TES to rely only on the bottom lane to play advantage, and it is obviously unrealistic to rely on the bottom lane to win more games. 369's state needs to be adjusted, Tian's mentality needs to be improved, Creme's first international tournament mentality and performance need the help of the coaching staff, there are still a few days to go before the next stage of the MSI competition, I hope TES will seize the time to adjust, and look forward to seeing their progress in the next games!
