With an emotional journey through the lower bracket, Bilibili Gaming (BLG) promised to create many challenges for JD Gaming (JDG) at the MSI 2023 Grand Final. However, the reality showed the opposite as JDG dominated their opponents for most of the Grand Final match. In fact, JDG even defeated BLG quite easily with a final score of 3-1.
With the MSI 2023 title, it can be said that JDG has affirmed that they are the strongest League of Legends (LoL) team at the moment. However, the 2023 season is only halfway through, and this team’s ambitions extend beyond the MSI title. After the match, Ruler asserted that JDG is the “main character” of this season and will aim for more major titles.
“I believe JDG is the ‘main character’ of the 2023 season. The MSI 2023 title is just the beginning of our journey. The whole team will continue to train hard and play better to aim for titles in the future. Personally, I always want to push my own limits,” Ruler shared after the match.
Fairly speaking, Ruler’s confidence in JDG’s success is entirely justified. The entire roster of this team is at the peak of their careers, yet they have not won many major titles in the past. Therefore, it is understandable that this team is highly determined and aims to win more major titles after MSI 2023.
However, from now until the 2023 World Championship (Worlds) is still a long journey. Other teams will surely study JDG closely as they are considered the strongest team in the world. Therefore, the MSI 2023 champion must also work very hard if they want to achieve their lofty goals this year.
