Preview of G2 Esports vs LOUD at the League of Legends MSI 2023 play-in

Prediction

LOUD just got victorious in CBLOL Split 1 2023, as this is the first Mid-Season Invitational in their history. They had an impressive tournament at the Brazilian League of Legends Split, easily defeating other top Brazilian squads.

That being said, LoL Worlds 2023, LOUD's most recent appearance in a major international competition, was pretty underwhelming. After losing to DetonatioN in the play-in stage, they placed in the 19th–20th spot.

However, since they added the South Korean ADC player Route, things have been going really well for them. He was a bot-lane player for Sandbox Gaming, and in December 2022, he took Brance's place in LOUD.

As the most popular Brazilian LoL roster makes its way to MSI 2023, they know how to get the crowd going. Even when the odds are stacked against them, LOUD has a history of pulling off chic plays and winning.

G2 Esports, on the other hand, looked quite baffled during the playoff stage of LEC Spring 2023. They were the undisputed favorites for the spring split after winning the LEC Winter 2023. However, Caps and co's underwhelming performance was insufficient to advance past the lower bracket semi-finals.

G2's roster underwent a significant number of changes as a result of their disappointing League of Legends Worlds 2022 results. With Jankos, Targamas, and Flakked leaving the team, only Caps and BrokenBlade remained. Finally, Yike and French superstar Hans Sama were added to the lineup along with Mikyx's return.

Even though they qualified for the MSI by winning the winter split, the Mad Lions were a massive obstruction in their path.

As for the predictions for G2 Esports vs LOUD, G2 should be able to win despite not being in the best of form. Superstars such as Caps or Hans sama can significantly alter the outcome. The series will be epic, and all of the games should be of the highest quality.
