The 2023 Asian Games Semifinal was a highly anticipated face-off between two dominant League of Legends forces, China and South Korea. The prevailing thought was that the victor would ultimately go on to claim the gold medal.
Korea's skilled players came out on top in an impressive 2-0 series against their rivals from China, securing their spot in the coveted grand finals with remarkable gameplay.
In game one, South Korea seized the lead and rode it to victory, exploiting every possible advantage in their quest for gold and eliminations. China, however, came out strong in the second game, only to be stymied by Korea's deft response and strategic turnabout, leading to a spectacular comeback.
For Team Korea, achieving a gold medal is of utmost importance. The reason is that every Korean man between 18 and 35 must serve in the military, and by winning the gold medal, they can attain exemption from this mandatory military service.
Throughout the League of Legends tournament, Chinese Taipei's performances were absolutely brilliant. The United Arab Emirates and Maldives were no match for them in Group C, which they dominated.
They also dispatched Malaysia with ease in the quarterfinals with a 2-0 victory. In the Semi-final, they showed total superiority over Vietnam, completely outclassing them in a 2-0 win.
However, based on current form, South Korea is likely to win the Grand Final 2-0. However, Chinese Taipei does have players who are capable of posing a challenge.
