As it is known, recently, Gen.G had a “self -destroying” media at the end of the 2023 season. This was then forced to forced the defending champion team to cancel the entire schedule before. At the same time, crises and consequences can completely affect LCK, not just genes. Typically, right in the early Super Classic match of the LCK Spring 2024, there was no channel of the LPL community allowed to broadcast. It is necessary to know, a less attractive match than before was Drx – Nongshim Redforce, it was up to 10 channels broadcasting on the Bilibili platform.

But the disaster may not stop there. According to the male streamer, the Chan Than is also quite famous in the LPL community, not only Gen.G but it may be that the LCK will be banned from the upcoming MSI 2024 tournament. For those who do not know, Riot has announced this year's MSI will be held in China. Thus, as the host area, LPL has the right to send a request to Riot to prohibit any team participating if they feel that this team has factors that are not suitable for their assessment.
According to streamer LPL, Gen.G may be banned from attending MSI 2024
Of course, the male streamer also emphasized that this can only happen in the case of genes. However, with what was shown before T1 in the opening match, the possibility of Gen.G the 2024 LCK LCK champion is still very high and certainly they are a bright candidate. Thus, LCK may have to prepare mentally for the LPL that can be banned from this area from the tournament, or only for a representative to attend.
But if LCK does not have any move, LPL may penalize LCK
However, according to the male streamer as well as many other opinions from the LPL industry, the only requirement of this area is Gen.G must receive a significant sanction. Because, with his mistakes, Gen.G basically also violated Riot's taboo when outside the external factors impact on the League of Legends environment. However, up to this moment, Riot or BTC LCK has not made any move involved in the case.
Gen.G is making LCK “lying on the fire”
Therefore, the fact that LCK can be “conferred” from MSI 2024 is not too difficult to understand. Not to mention, this year MSI will have a close relationship with Worlds 2024. It is possible that the BTC LCK and Riot must have timely moves to solve the situation between the top two areas of the world League of Legends immediately, avoiding everything worse in the future.
