Preview of Fnatic vs EDG at League of Legends Worlds 2022
Predictions
Fnatic's start to League of Legends Worlds 2022 was extremely chaotic. The team had a horrible end to the LEC Summer as it got demolished 3-0 by Rogue. However, as the team was getting ready, the primary botlane of the team, Upset, and Hylissang, got affected by COVID-19.
This led to serious issues, as the team had to bring in substitutes. Fortunately, the players were cleared of the illness and were cleared to participate in the tournament immediately.
There is no doubt that as soon as the team was back together, Fnatic just uplifted their performance to another level. The team started crushing everyone and steamrolled through the play-in stage with ease.
However, as soon as Fnatic qualified for the main stage, people thought that Fnatic's time was done as it was placed in a group with T1, EDG, and Cloud9. The team triumphed once more as it crushed Cloud9 and T1 with ease and set its sights on EDG.
Fnatic has come together as a team in times of need and has stood by each other even on the most challenging days when no one wanted to believe in this roster.
EDG, on the other hand, has been relatively poor so far at Worlds 2022. Due to being the World Champions, people expected EDG to showcase massive dominance. However, the first game against T1 did not end well, as EDG got steamrolled in just 22 minutes.
Fortunately, the team rose against Cloud9, but people still doubt that the latter is a much weaker opponent than the other teams in Group A.
So, in terms of predictions, Fnatic is looking like the stronger team and should win against EDG to solidify their position in first place in Group A.
