The LPL representatives went almost flawless during the first round of matches in the group stage of the 2021 League of Legends World Championship. The only black sheep were FPX and LNG Esports, who dropped one game each. Nevertheless, China was looking stronger than ever after the first three days of group play at Worlds 2021. But now, it looks like the tables have turned a bit since the LPL teams struggled during the second round robin of the Worlds 2021 group stage. The Chinese squads went 4-11 over the

Royal Never Give Up are the first team from Group C to qualify for the 2021 League of Legends World Championship knockout stage after win over the PCS’ PSG Talon. The Chinese squad’s win in the scrappy matchup came off of the back of smart macro play initiated by their dragon takes. Today’s match started off with an early lead in the hands of RNG thanks to their bot lane priority. The advantage came to a halt once Hanabi disrupted it with a one vs. two in that same lane,

Everyone was able to take a deep breath after the first day of the 2021 League of Legends World Championship group stage, but the second day of the tournament’s main event refused to take its foot off the gas. At multiple points throughout the day, the supposed “game of the tournament” was played, only for another game later in the schedule to usurp the previous one of its title.  Now, after 16 full games have been played during the group stage, some groups are already appearing to be complete washes

In a rematch of the MSI 2021 semifinals, the LPL’s Royal Never Give Up took down the PCS’ PSG Talon in a close bout today at Worlds where they took the early lead off the back of Xiaohu’s 3/1/9 scoreline on Syndra top. RNG stuck to their tried and true method of getting Xiaohu ahead while being suffocating across the rest of the map, getting two-vs-two kills and finding plays. As the first seed from China, the defending MSI champions are looking to take home the international crown for a

The last string that held Team Liquid together broke. The multi-time LCS champion team committed millions of dollars this past November, signing two high-profile free agents and renewing its mid laner to one of the biggest extensions in the league—and now, it looked all for naught.  It had already been a rough June for Liquid. One of those stars, top laner Alphari, got benched amid behavioral issues early in the month, and the other, Santorin, played through debilitating migraines and needed time to recover. Yet there was one more unforeseen
