In the past few days, Team Whales (TW) has made a significant impression on the League of Legends audience. The VCS representative was not highly rated before the tournament as they fell into a tough bracket. However, with the determination and efforts of the entire team, TW has brilliantly secured two convincing victories at Worlds 2023.
This achievement has ensured TW’s top position in Group B of the Play-In Stage. This is indeed a huge surprise at Worlds 2023, as many experts believed Team BDS would dominate this group before the tournament began. Recently, TW’s top laner – Sprada shared some interesting insights about the team’s success secrets in the recent matches.
“We prefer to use a cautious playstyle in the early game and aim for decisive team fights. The whole team also focuses on improving our control of the game to secure victories. However, we can also adapt our playstyle depending on the situation in the match. Given the current situation, I think TW’s chance of advancing beyond the Play-In Stage is up to 70%,” Sprada confidently shared in a recent interview.
Indeed, when reflecting on TW’s recent victories, fans can see the impressive game control from the VCS representative. TW did not make any “strange” picks but relied on map control and coordinated team fights to defeat their opponents. This shows that TW is a formidable team, not merely relying on luck to achieve victories.
Therefore, Sprada’s assertion that TW has a 70% chance of advancing beyond the Play-In Stage is not unfounded. If the VCS representative continues to maintain their high performance as they have recently, it is entirely possible for them to achieve more proud accomplishments at Worlds 2023. Who knows, TW might just become the name that creates “earthquakes” at Worlds 2023 this year.
