On October 19th, the second half of the League of Legends 2024 World Championship knockout round will begin, which are TES vs. T1 and GEN vs. FLY! After BLG defeated HLE in one chase three, it means that BLG will meet WBG in the semi-finals, so that a team from the LPL region has been guaranteed to go to London to advance to the finals. One thing to say, BLG's victory this time is still very crucial, otherwise the LPL region will become very passive, and congratulations to BLG for becoming the first team in history to eliminate the LCK No. 1 seed for two consecutive years!
After WBG and BLG advanced to the semi-finals, now the pressure is on TES, if TES can break out of the encirclement in the second half, then the ideal script is that the final is a team civil war in the LPL division, and the effect of the program is really full, but in advance, TES can win T1 first. In the previous BO1 encounters, TES actually won against T1, so TES is better in terms of morale. It's just worrying that because this is a BO5 game, there are too many variables, and T1 is very good at playing BO5.
Judging from the prediction index given by the professional esports prediction platform before the game, the prediction index of TES is 2.06, and the prediction index of T1 is 1.73. Judging from this set of data, many players are still more optimistic that T1 will win the game. One thing to say, TES still has the power to fight, and the state of the players can be full in advance. In the top laner encounter, 369 can avoid the lane with Zeus very well due to the change of lanes. But the 369 group must be shaken to 9, otherwise it is likely to become a burdensome existence.
In terms of jungler, Xiao Tian still has the advantage, and Xiao Tian, who has returned to Paris, is undoubtedly a reliable jungler in this world championship, as long as he is aimed at the lower Oner brush jungle route, and does not let him quickly reach 6 in the early stage. The second is the duel between Faker and Little Cream in the middle that everyone is most concerned about, Faker is too much pressure on people, I hope that Little Cream can be stabilized, and in the case of a slight disadvantage in the middle of the road, it depends on whether TES's lower road can stand up and carry the banner. The combination of Ah Shui and Meiko, if you can hold down T1 down the road, then TES definitely has a chance! However, in terms of BP, TES must come up with something new, otherwise if T1 takes out the killer move of Nila Time, he may be stunned by TES all of a sudden.
Finally, there is the showdown between GEN and FLY, I believe that many players feel that GEN has won steadily, and FLY can be said to be the most powerful team in the top eight. As the current favorite team to win the championship, there is a high probability that there will be no overturning script, otherwise the biggest upset of this year may be born.
Judging from the prediction index given by the professional esports prediction platform before the game, the prediction index of GEN is 1.01, and the prediction index of FLY is 13.72. Judging from this set of data, it can be seen that the gap between the strength of the two teams is very large, and it depends on whether FLY can prepare something new to force out GEN's big move. Otherwise, FLY is basically a clean sheet, and GEN only needs to play steadily to advance to the semi-finals easily.
So in the end, who do you think will succeed in winning these two games? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments!
