As of now, all teams qualified for the MSI 2023 are fully present in London, United Kingdom, to begin their journey. Notably, after many years of absence from this event, GAM Esports has made a comeback. However, the black-and-yellow team will face a significant challenge as MSI 2023 has undergone many changes in format compared to previous years.
Recently, according to some information from the Vietnamese League of Legends audience, the ranked accounts of GAM players in the European server have been revealed. Notably, most GAM players have impressive performances in ranked matches leading up to this MSI. However, for Kati, he seems to still be getting used to the new environment.
Specifically, having just arrived on the European server and ranked for 3 matches, Kati’s win rate is… 0%. Although using familiar champions like Veigar and Ahri, Kati couldn’t secure any victories. Remarkably, in most matches, the GAM player was taken down quite often. In one match playing Veigar, he didn’t get any kills despite Veigar being a champion with excellent burst damage capability.
Meanwhile, the other members of GAM are performing better. All 4 remaining members have also just played a few ranked matches but have won them all. Levi and Kiaya both have 2 MVP titles among their 3 victories. Additionally, Sty1e demonstrated his ability to play the champion Lucian with a record of 15/5/7 – a pretty good KDA with a champion that is rarely seen being played by Sty1e in professional matches.
Of course, ranked matches are just one aspect of a player’s practice. And Vietnamese fans can be confident in the GAM players. Surely, the team will prepare thoroughly for the important journey ahead, and the current ranked situation may just be a way to “test champions”.
