Two wins in the play-in phase will advance you to the bracket round, while two defeats are grounds for elimination. After the Worlds win in 2023, T1 is expected to easily make it through the group.
Bracket Stage
They get an automatic bye to MSI 2024 as the top seeded team in the LCK. The Bracket Stage is where they begin their journey.
After the Play-In stage is over, the opponent’s name will be revealed at the Draw Show. This takes place on the 5th of May. They will either confirm their moniker of “international janitors”, or they will finally rid themselves of it.
Take a look at each team’s path, their players and their prospects at the League of Legends Mid-Season Invitational.
T1
World Champions in the reigning: T1. Last year they brought Korea home the Worlds Trophy and are now looking to continue their success in MSI2024.
The team has been using the same roster ever since 2021. They didn’t have much success internationally for some time, apart from winning a Worlds Final 2022. Last year, the organization finally saw the benefits of its dedication when it denied JD Gaming the Golden Road by winning the Worlds 2023 Championship.
The players on the roster are all among the top in their respective roles. Zeus, the top laner of this team, has shown signs of weakness in recent weeks. However, there was plenty time for them to fix it.
Gen.G Esports
Local kings: Gen.G Esports. Since LCK Summer 2020, they have won every season. The majority of their team is made up of 2024 new signings, with the exception being Peyz as bot laner.
Peyz debuted in the LCK last year, after being promoted from Gen.G Challengers. This was his organization’s development team. Peyz quickly rose to the top of contenders for this role, and was awarded the Rookie Award 2023. Pentakills were common when Peyz was riding a champion who could hypercarry, like Zeri.
Now that hypercarries are mostly gone from the meta, there is some inconsistency with Gen.G. It’s possible that their opponents are looking for the Achilles’ Heel of this team.
Peyz is the only one who can’t be compared to everyone else in Gen.G. Gen.G Esports, with their experience and carrying potential for each member of the team, considers themselves a superteam.
