BLG vs. PSG

Throughout the MSI group stage, no one would have doubted a match with a 3-0 ending before the match. BLG, the No. 1 seed in the LPL region, is considered to be the strongest Chinese team in the past two years after Knight joined, and faced PSG, which eliminated FLY from North America from the wild card PCS region. As a result, no one expected BLG to play a big game, not only lost to PSG, but also lost 2 games, and forcibly filled the Bo5 that was originally far apart. Then they kept a clean sheet in the final game, and although they still gave away three in the end, 19-3 made the tiebreaker the most garbage time game in the Bo5.

PSG Zeli blasts BLG

The biggest problem today was BLG's bottom laner ELK, whose individual performance was terrible. Especially after PSG won the second game, in the third game 2v2, ELK was killed by Zeli in seconds, and in the fourth game was rotten by EZ, PSG's strong ADC performance played the biggest matchup gap today. However, due to PSG's poor mid-laner performance, BLG finally won this Bo5, but it is undeniable that ELK lost to Betty in the comprehensive 5 games.

The line change made BLG's top order VN fail against Quisanti

The problem that BLG exposed today is that they can't handle version changes, which is a huge weakening for them who are good at laneing. Because the side that takes the initiative to change lanes has an advantage, avoiding the lane minimizes the impact of the duo on the lane, forcibly balances the ability of many teams to go down, and can only play in a group by developing each other and fighting the line. In addition, it also makes the counter position more stupid, especially the top laner, because the opposite side will definitely avoid it. For example, BLG wanted to play VN against Quisanti in the fourth game, but Quisanti changed lines and didn't play with VN. BLG was exhausted in order to catch Quisanti and change lanes, and was finally defeated by PSG in a team battle.

The mid-laner performance is too poor, and PSG can't win

PSG can be said to have broken BLG with a line change, but their mid-laner Maple played very poorly, and it basically didn't have any effect if he didn't take Dragon King and Rock Sparrow. In the case of disparity in strength, the change of line has helped them drag into the tiebreaker, and it can be seen that the influence of the version is still very exaggerated. Today, if PSG's mid-laner is at the first-class level, BLG may not be able to hold out in the fifth game.

It's not for the show

Bin admitted in an interview that the version change is a huge weakening of BLG, and they didn't expect to play 5 rounds today. Although the last game was a 19-3 man-machine game, it can still be seen that the difference in strength between the two sides is very large, and this effect was achieved just by using the line change tactic. If G2 and T1 are also good at changing lines, then BLG may still be beaten into the lower bracket.

Carefully study the version of PSG, although it is still a failure

PSG, as the underdog, they have carefully studied the lane change version, and the execution is also very successful, if it weren't for the poor performance of individual players, they could have beaten BLG through the version today. Playing 5 full rounds with the LPL champion, this is already the pinnacle of a wild card team. The last time PSG defeated the LPL team in a small game was in the 2021 mid-season tournament, and today it was also a glorious defeat.
