In the most recent announcement, the VCS and Riot Organizing Committee showed the efforts to resolve the negative suspects weighing on the League of Legends tournament in Vietnam, by allowing 4 Top 4 teams to participate in the playoffs to delinge the champion. Of course, this does not mean that VCS was able to participate at MSI 2024. But obviously, giving the audience the opportunity to continue to watch the fascinating matches instead of waiting for the punishment for the professional League of Vietnam as a very positive direction of Riot and BTC VCS.
Playoffs VCS Spring 2024 is a great effort of the VCS and Riot BTC
Of the 4 teams participating in the Playoffs VCS Spring 2024, perhaps the eSports is still the strongest team. GAM also has 2 members in additional survey. However, one is the gunner and the other is the middle line. According to many comments, for a long time, grams no longer operate the game around the gunner. Therefore, the absence of an outstanding gunner has never been a problem of GAM in many seasons. The gunner is also the most volatile position of the yellow – black team last time. Moreover, they also have Bigkoro instead and be ready to make surprises.
Gam Bigkoro replacement for the gunner position
As for the mid lane position, perhaps only when Kati, GAM must put a lot of resources for this position and Kati himself also plays an important role. If Gam does not have a mid lane too “out of the process”, they will continue to be loyal to the playful play for Kiaya – Levi. It can be said that, as long as Kiaya and Levi are still in high form, GAM will still be the strongest team VCS.
If the mid lane is not Kati, GAM can completely focus resources for Kiaya – Levi or Bigkoro
Meanwhile, in the remaining teams, their losses are much heavier. The two players of the Whales team suspended, Gloryy and Beanj. This is also the forest couple – the most powerful mid lane of VCS, helping the TW to become the counterweight of GAM. Now both can not play, the power of TW will certainly affect a lot. The burden is on the shoulders of Sparda and Artemis but Sparda can hardly play well when Beanj no longer supports the side.
Gloryy – Beanj pair is probably 50% of the power of TW
Team Secret also lost an important main force, Gunner Eddie. This player is always considered the nucleus of the team. And the fact that Eddie is no longer competing, which means that the bottom line of the Secret team is a vast space.
How will Taki play when there is no more Eddie?
But about the Vikings Esports, the story is a bit different. In fact, the two most important nuclei of VKE is Kati – Shogun is still there. And Gury or Kratos always have a fluttering form this season. And Vke himself also has an extremely dangerous “secret weapon” called SofM. In recent days, the former Suning star has constantly hidden the implication of being able to return to the competition. If this happens, it is accidentally VKE is the biggest counterweight of GAM in the playoffs. SOFM's ability is not to be controversial. Not to mention, if SOFM directly commanded in the match, it would be able to increase the gasist for the remaining players.
SofM constantly “teases” the VCS comeback as a player
Of course, whether VKE is the counterweight of GAM or not, still have to wait for the move of SofM. But if it is possible to witness SOFM confronting Levi in an official battle, perhaps it will be the best mental medicine for VCS audiences who are very mentally down because of the crisis of faith between the negative drama this time.
