G2 Esports

G2 Esports remains the only Western team to win the MSI trophy in 2019. Since then, the MSI has been largely dominated by LPL and LCK representatives. Chinese teams (LPL) have won the last three MSI tournaments in a row, and while there is no defending reigning champion this year, this may be G2's best chance to take it by surprise, as the Eastern teams themselves emphasise that the Europeans look stronger than they did last year.

12-time LEC champion Rasmus Caps Winter has been G2's main trump card since joining the team in the 2018 off-season, and he's in great form this year. G2's recent dominance in the winter and spring LEC splits showed just how far they've come from the rest of their opponents in the West. And the Caps' performances during the LEC Spring Split playoffs show how well the leader of the Samurai is playing: according to gol.gg, his average KDA is 6.2 among all mids.

The European champion will start right from the main stage and many experts hope that this team will give a real fight to the reigning world champions from T1.

T1

The reigning world champions will have another chance to win their third MSI title. However, the team is far from where they would like to be, having gone through a number of challenges to get to their first international tournament in 2024. During the spring split, LCK T1 had to deal with DDoS attacks that made them unable to practice or even play as often as they would have liked. However, they still remain one of LCK's best teams.

T1 players had to overcome the play-in stage of this MSI where they had to face Estral Esports and FlyQuest,. Faker and Co. didn't get any resistance, and if you remember that this team has two MSI titles, no one can write T1 off, but if anyone can, it's Gen.G Esports, who will be facing them soon.

Expert Betting Tips

The European champion should give a fight to the Korean second team, who are no longer playing as cool as they did at last year's World Championships. T1 is the favourite, but G2 Esports can easily pick up 1-2 cards.
