Did I Rest Too Long? Gen.G, in Danger of Losing 3:0 to BLG [Worlds World Cup zoom-in]
Could it have been detrimental to have reached the quarterfinals too early?
In the quarterfinals of the 2023 League of Legends World Championship, which is taking place on the afternoon of the 3rd.
Gen.G Esports, the first seed in the domestic League of Legends professional league LCK (League of Legends Champions Korea), is on the verge of elimination.
Gen.G is losing to Bilibili Gaming (BLG), the second seed in the LPL in the Chinese League, with a set score of 0 to 2.
The quarterfinals will be played in a best-of-five format.
If Gen.G loses once more, they will exit the World Cup stage.
Initially, Gen.G was confirmed to advance to the quarterfinals early with a score of 3 to 0, while BLG barely advanced to the knockout stage with 3 wins and 2 losses, so Gen.G was expected to have the upper hand.
But when I opened the lid, it was the exact opposite.
Gen.G was unilaterally pushed back, as if they had returned to the 2023 Mid-Season Invitational (MSI) last May.
At that time, Gen.G lost to BLG with a set score of 0:3.
From Gen.G’s perspective, getting to the quarterfinals too early was actually detrimental.
Gen.G won three consecutive games in the last Swiss stage and confirmed its advancement to the quarterfinals on October 21st along with Jingdong Gaming (JDG), the No. 1 seed in the LPL in the Chinese League.
For Gen.G players, today is the first real game in two weeks.
Advancement to the top round early is a good thing, giving you plenty of time to prepare, but this time it worked out for the worse.
The players were nervous, and the manager and coaches were unable to keep up with the meta that changed late in the Swiss stage.
This was clearly revealed from the ban pick. Gen.G lost Rumble, Jarvan, Orianna, Xayah, and Renata Glass to BLG in the second set.
Top Rumble is the undisputed tier 1 champion with a ban pick rate of 77% and a win rate of 67% after the Swiss stage of this tournament.
Mid-range Orianna (95%) and ADC Xayah (96%) are more overwhelming tier 1 picks.
Jungle Jarvan is also a meta champion ranked 2nd in ban pick rate (79%), and Renata is also a meta champion ranked 3rd in ban pick rate (54%).
In effect, this means that the game was played by giving away all of the best cards at the moment to the opponent.
The players were clearly nervous.
