This morning – October 5th, the matches determining the qualifying teams for the Group Stage of Worlds 2022 have concluded. Specifically, Evil Geniuses and Royal Never Give Up are the two teams that secured victories and will join Fnatic and DragonX in the upcoming Group Stage of Worlds 2022.
According to the tournament rules, in the Group Stage, teams from the same region cannot face each other. Therefore, the representative from Korea – DragonX can only participate in Group C, which includes teams such as Rogue, Top Esports, and GAM Esports.
This promises to be a very exciting and unpredictable group as all four teams have a chance to defeat each other and secure a spot in the knockout stage. For the VCS representative – GAM Esports, the presence of DragonX will make their upcoming journey even more challenging.
If you didn’t know, all matches in the Group Stage of Worlds 2022 are Bo1. This format is considered a strong suit for Korean teams, as they always possess a solid approach to the game with minimal errors. If GAM Esports doesn’t have many special strategies, creating surprises will be extremely difficult.
The other two opponents of GAM in the upcoming Group Stage are also formidable, with Rogue being a very strong team from the LEC. Remember that Rogue has previously defeated both G2 and Fnatic to win the LEC Summer 2022 Championship, showcasing the excellence of jungle player Malrang, so we cannot underestimate this team.
Meanwhile, Top Esports remains a terrifying team from the LPL with a consistent quality of players. In fact, Top Esports this season is even scarier, as their previously weak top lane has been resolved with the rapid improvement of Wayward.
Conclusion
It can be said that GAM Esports will face countless challenges in the upcoming Group Stage of Worlds 2022 as their direct opponents from the VCS are all very strong names. Therefore, GAM’s chances of advancing to the knockout stage are indeed not very high. Hopefully, the GAM Esports team will reach their highest form and make a strong impression on the audience in the upcoming Group Stage.
