“Super War” IG can “ship” in the 2025 season
After a noisy and no less “drama” transfer, IG emerged as a new hope of the LPL area. The reason comes from the fact that IG has owned a squad with all the stars and a highly appreciated coach. It is the presence of stature stars such as Theshy, Rookie, Gala … also helping LPL to attract a lot of viewers back to follow the tournament.
IG's “full star” squad is expected very high in the next season
However, besides the glamor of “Super War” IG, the concerns about this team also appeared. Even in a recent broadcast, former coach RNG, LNG and EDG – Poppy also stated that the “new” IG is very easy to fail against strong opponents in important matches. The reason given is from the most familiar play of the current IG players.

“Although this new IG is expected by many viewers, I think they will face many difficulties. The two single lines of Thery and Rookie often tend to find a way to play overwhelming to force the opponent, which requires support and the jungler must sacrifice to protect behind his back. Need time to adapt. In addition, IG's individual is very good, so they can easily win the weak teams. – Coach Poppy shared frankly.

IG is still clinging to the “Super Team curse”
The above comments of Poppy coach are completely grounded when IG recently failed to TES (a strong team) at the Demacia Cup 2024. Even in this match, Theshy or Rookie were often exploited by competitors that were too high without his teammates. It should be known that the Demacia Cup still stopped at a friendly tournament so IG will probably lose even more heavily before TES when entering LPL.

Not stopping there, being considered a new “Super Team” at LPL also brings a lot of challenges for IG in the upcoming season. The reason from the similar “super team” has emerged in LPL in recent years but has a “tragic” ending. Not to say far, it is the TES of season 2024 that is also considered a “super team” but completely empty -handed. Therefore, the IG team will need to make a great effort in the upcoming 2025 season to have the opportunity to win the title and overcome the “Super Team curse” clinging to themselves.
