The smoke of the spring finals in various major regions around the world has just dissipated, and 11 top teams that have won the laurels came to the stage of the 2021 MSI Mid-Season Championship with high spirits, and once again staged a competitive e-sports event. After the three-day group stage, each group will enter the final qualifying battle. On the fourth day of the competition, the four teams in Group B will compete in the second round, and the teams with the top two points can qualify for the promotion.
B's first pool team, European champion MAD is currently leading the standings with three wins and is one of the only three teams in MSI so far. However, in terms of the content of the game, MAD seems to have a subtle gap with its opponents. In addition to winning PSG by a big score in the first game, the next two games against IW and PNG were all near misses. Will any team be able to knock them down in the second round, or even compete for the top spot in the group?
5th 11th 00:00-MAD vs PNG
From the current game, MAD team can gain advantages through operations in the early and mid-term. Their problems lie in the team battle decision and split push processing in the mid-to-late stage. PNG once created a huge threat to MAD through spiritual split-pushing and stealing towers. Too bad it fell short in the end. After meeting on the field again, MAD should have learned the lesson and played more steadily. The gap in PNG's hard power may not be able to make up.
htmlAt 2:00 on May 11th, PSG played against MAD
As the LMS and the Southeast Asia division disbanded and merged to become the PCS, the new overlord of the league was born in this area. The PSG team is considered to be second only to the four major divisions and the T2 division of the same level as the Vietnam VCS. . Veterans such as Hanabi and Maple in the team also make PCS fans dream of recasting the glory of Flash Wolves. After losing to MAD by a big score in the first game, PSG made a lot of adjustments and won IW and PNG in a fiery state, chasing after MAD.
If PSG, eager for revenge, can win MAD in the second round and continue their previous status, they may hope to tie the points in the second round, and even compete for the first place in the group.
Prediction result:
MAD wins PNG
PSG wins MAD
Compared with the huge scale and long schedule of the global finals, the MSI held at the turn of the two seasons is more like a mid-term evaluation of the overall level of each division. There are differences in the strength of the divisions, but the will of the champion team to win is the same. Here, people can see the understanding of the champions of the divisions on how to win, which is also the wonderful thing about MSI. There are many stories of high start and low walk or slow heat and counterattack on the MSI arena. Only the team with the fastest version reading ability and the best overall state can have the last laugh.
