After their defeat against Gen.G, G2 Esports (G2) began their lower bracket journey with a matchup against MAD Lions. With confidence and unique picks, G2 convincingly defeated their regional rivals with a score of 3-0. In the next lower bracket match, G2 will face a significant challenge from Bilibili Gaming (BLG) from the LPL.
However, the 3-0 victory over MAD Lions seemed to have given G2 a lot of confidence. The G2 players are even thinking about reaching the MSI 2023 Finals and winning the championship instead of worrying about their next opponent. In a post-match interview, G2’s Top Laner – Broken Blade asserted that they will meet T1 in the most important match.
“Honestly, I want to face T1 in the MSI 2023 Finals. This is the match that many fans want to see happen. Last time, Zeus played quite dominantly against me. However, if we meet again, I will do the same to him. The G2 team is ready to defeat T1 in the future,” Broken Blade shared with the media.
The last time T1 faced the LEC representative was in the MSI 2022 Semifinals. In that match, T1 had a truly dominant performance against the LEC representative, winning convincingly with a score of 3-0. In fact, Zeus also had quite a few outplays against Broken Blade both in the laning phase and during team fights. Perhaps G2’s Top Laner still remembers those moments, which is why he desires to face T1 so eagerly.
However, to have the opportunity to fight T1, G2 needs to overcome another strong team, BLG, in the upcoming match. This also promises to be a challenging match for Broken Blade as BLG’s Bin is highly regarded in the Top Lane position. Hopefully, G2 will bring their best form to make their wish to meet T1 a reality.
