VKE will probably have difficulty in the branch losing to Worlds 2024
In his opening match at Worlds 2024, Vikings Esports had a lot of difficulties when their opponent was LEC's No. 3 seed – Mad Lions Koi – a current name that could be said to be too much compared to VCS teams. And indeed, it was not expected when VKE was overwhelmed by Mad and had to accept the losing branch in his group in this year's Worlds.
However, the opportunity for Vke was not necessarily over when in the next match, Pain Gaming was also defeated by PSG Talon. As such, VKE's opponent will be a team from Wildcards and this is the last chance for SOFM's army at Worlds 2024.
VKE has a day of unpleasant troops at Worlds 2024
However, after the match between PNG and PSG, Vke's ability to go on the losing branch is not as high as before. Because PNG clearly has a lot of progress compared to a team coming from the Wildcards. Even so, SofM and his students still have to make every effort. This is SOFM's first World Worlds under the role of a coach and also the first World World after a very long period of time that Kati no longer wears the familiar Esports Gam shirt. Certainly no one in the VKE team wants Worlds 2024 to end so quickly.
But meeting PNG in the losing branch may also make the representative of VCS difficult
VCS audience also doubted the future of VKE at Worlds 2024
While Vke was difficult at Worlds 2024, at VCS, the audience also showed doubts even though the opponent in the losing branch of VKE was just a PNG from the Wildcards CBLOL. In the rare time this representative could return to an international tournament of League of Legends village, PNG is showing too well. Therefore, inevitably debate in the Vietnamese League of Legends community about VKE's ability to go on.
Many VCS audiences do not have much faith in VKE
However, what Vke needs the most now where the audience is cheering and belief. Moreover, PNG is not Mad or PSG and they have shown the impatience, lack of experience even when taking advantage. This will be a factor for VKE to exploit, especially when the VCS teams almost always have a tradition of 200% of their energy every time they are cornered.
