With the 2021 Global Finals semi-finals approaching, the topic of three LCK teams surrounding an LPL team in the semi-finals has become the hottest topic recently. But in fact, this topic is not a completely established topic. Because if EDG can successfully beat GEN in the semifinals of the first half, in fact, EDG only needs to face two LCK teams at most. Moreover, if EDG can advance to the final, from the current situation, there will be an LPL and LCK division final, no matter what the final outcome of EDG, at least it can be regarded as playing the style of the LPL division.
However, in addition to this topic, in recent days, in the "League of Legends S11 Viewing Guide" led by the LPL official commentary, Douyu Live Anchor Doll, Miller and Guan Zeyuan, Guan Zeyuan proposed a more classic two major paradoxes in the current global finals, which also appeared in the first half of the semifinals, that is, EDG and GEN. The classic paradox of these two world championships is that the first and most recent teams that eliminated Perkz in the global finals eventually won the championship; second, the teams that eliminated EDG in the global finals could not win the championship in the end. That is to say, if this paradox persists in this world championship, GEN is likely to win the championship, but GEN is only likely to impact the championship if it eliminates EDG. That is, one of these two classical paradoxes will be broken.
However, if EDG successfully defeated GEN in the semifinals, it means that EDG took the lead in breaking the paradox that "the teams that eliminated Perkz eventually won the championship", and if the paradox of "the teams that eliminated EDG could not win the championship in the end" still exists, then it means that EDG can win the championship in the final. Of course, because the first paradox has already been broken, the second paradox is also possible.
However, the paradox is a paradox, after all, it is only an interesting phenomenon in the global finals, and it does not really predict the story that will happen in the next world race. However, one thing is certain, as Doll, Miller, and Guan Zeyuan said, no matter which team wins the championship, it will create a new history.
EDG: Won the first global finals title in team history and created a new history;
T1: The four champions of the global finals are added, and it is difficult for a team to surpass in the future;
GEN: Become the same Triple Crown as T1;
DK: The only two teams that have defended their title successfully and have the potential to achieve the treble of the global finals that SKT has not been able to achieve.
Therefore, no matter which team is concerned, the champion of this year's Global Finals is crucial.
Finally, if you look at the current performance of the global finals, DK and T1 may be more likely to win the championship, followed by EDG, and finally gen. However, as long as two of the teams succeed in the final, there is no such thing as who will win. Therefore, for EDG, the first thing to do is to stabilize the mentality, first pass the GEN level and then say. How to deal with the final next is something to consider later.
Dear friends, which team do you think will be the winner of this global finals?
