LOL19-10 02:53
Shock appeared in the quarterfinals of Worlds 2024 when LNG Esports, the undefeated team in the Swiss round, suddenly collapsed before the overwhelming strength of defending runner-up Weibo Gaming.


Weibo Gaming (WBG) is on the path to repeating its miracle at Worlds 2023, determined not to stop until it reaches the finals again. However, the challenge before them is LNG Esports - the undefeated team led by Scout and also one of two teams that still maintains a perfect record at this year's World Championship.



The first game was dramatic as both teams made many mistakes in the fight. LNG came close to victory thanks to their dominance in the mid-match. However, a fatal mistake in controlling visibility in the Dragon cave area prevented them from having time to prevent WBG from stealing Baron. From here, the situation turned, and LNG no longer had the strength to stop the main forces on the WBG side, and had to accept defeat.



Game 2 was a real emotional chase, with the surprising performance of Tarzan and general Amumu. Initially, Amumu was not effective against LNG's mobile squad, while Weiwei opened an extremely effective fight with Sejuani. However, in the mid-game, WBG's Amumu - Aurora combo showed its strength, helping them turn the situation around and push the opponent back to tower 4. However, GALA's brilliance made their intentions disappear. WBG's match ending was shattered.


While Scout had trouble with Yone, GALA and Zika became LNG's heroes. Ezreal in GALA's hands caused tons of damage, contributing to LNG's spectacular comeback.



In game 3, WBG once again had a good start but lost the advantage to LNG in the fights. Scout continued to play lacklusterly, and the LNG squad had to rely on Light to shine. However, LNG's gunner made a serious mistake by rushing straight into the enemy team with Killer Instinct. Meanwhile, although Light missed many Great Ice Arrows, with just one brilliant phase in Baron's cave, he helped WBG win the pivotal match.


With a more reasonable pick and ban lineup, WBG completely controlled the final game. LNG no longer has a chance to turn the tide, especially when Scout, despite holding Yone's champion, still cannot create any highlight in the face of Xiaohu's dominance. WBG's mid lane continuously shined on Aurora, dominating the fight and pushing LNG into a helpless position before succumbing at 30 minutes.


Despite high expectations from the Swiss Round, LNG suffered a bitter 1-3 defeat against WBG. With this convincing victory, WBG became the first team to participate in the semi-finals of Worlds 2024. Their impressive performance today shows that the LPL's No. 4 seed is completely capable of surprising the opponents. remaining opponents.
