2022 League of Legends Global Finals group stage is in New York, USA. Currently, 12 participating teams have held the first round of four days and are currently adjusting their states to welcome the second round of qualifying. As we all know, the United States is one of the regions with the largest number of people infected by the new crown epidemic in the world, and epidemic prevention policies are gradually relaxing, so the risk of infection with the new crown is higher. Although Riot has provided a strict epidemic prevention environment for staff and players in the global finals, infection is inevitable. On October 13, the Gen.G team officially issued an announcement announcing that the main mid laner Chovy, Supervisor Score and coach Museong were diagnosed with new coronavirus pneumonia.
Announcement content:
Hello everyone, this is Gen.G e-sports club.
We regret to inform fans that Gen.G LoL members Chovy, Score and Museong were diagnosed with COVID-19. According to the relevant regulations of , the three members have been self-isolated, and the examination results of the other contestants and staff are negative.
Currently confirmed players and coaching staff members are in good condition. They will participate in the next competition online in a separate quarantine space. If the inspection results turn negative, they may still go offline to participate in the remaining schedule.
We will work closely with Riot to prioritize the health and safety of all contestants and staff, and will update the team inspection results and competition schedule for fans in the future. All contestants and coaching staff members want to convey to their fans that they are in good condition and will focus on preparing for the game. Fans are asked to give them encouragement and support to help them overcome adversity.
There was also a case where the contestant tested positive for nucleic acid while participating in the competition alone in an isolated environment. Therefore, the hardware conditions for the contestant to participate are sufficiently guaranteed. The qualifying schedule for Group D where Gen.G team is located is originally scheduled to be held on October 17. If several Gen.G members turn negative by then, they still have the chance to return to the offline studio to participate. At present, the ranking situation of Group D is relatively clear. The RNG team ranked first in in three games, while Gen.G ranked second with two wins and one loss. In the case where both the CFO and 100T in the same group are relatively lacking in competitiveness, the pressure of the Gen.G team is not very high. The only challenge is whether they can qualify for the revenge RNG and obtain the qualification to be the first in the competition group.
