Welcome to EGamersWorld.
The Play-In Round 1 matches at Worlds 2023, the most important esports event of this autumn, continue. The stage is slowly winding down, and we move on to review the first match for life at the tournament.
Contending for the right to continue on to Worlds 2023 will be Gam Esports and Rainbow7. Both teams have a 0-2 statistic in Group A and are one step away from elimination from the tournament.
The teams will play for a slot in a last chance match in the bo3 series. We will see how this clash will end and who will be the winner.
Let's go.
GAM Esports uniforms
We open the match analysis with the analysis of GAM Esports form. In this match they are favourites by a small margin: the odds for their victory are around 1.6.
GAM Esports is one of the most titled teams in Vietnam with 5 wins in regional splits and several top 2 home league titles. At the last event, VCS Dawn 2023, GAM Esports had a very strong run in the play-offs, winning the group 14-0 in the series. GAM played well in the play-offs itself, giving up a total of 4 maps in 3 series.
Vietnam (VCS) - My region with an asterisk. Teams from there are capable of putting up a fight against the world's top League of Legends clubs, as demonstrated by GAM Esports during Worlds 2017, 2019, and even at Worlds 2022.
The peak of performance on the international stage remains 2017. That's when GAM Esports finished in the top 6 at the 2017 Mid-Season Invitational.
To repeat the success of 2017, it is mandatory to beat Rainbow7 in the upcoming confrontation. Everything seems to be in place for that to happen.
- GAM Esports lineup: Kiaya, Levi, Kati, Sty1e, Zin .
GAM has the top performers by VCS standards, which is confirmed by the club's performance at home. However, they didn't help GAM to beat a more titled opponent, namely Golden Guardians, with whom GAM played in the first round of Play-In MSI 2023 and lost without much chance.
All in all, MSI 2023 ended very badly for GAM Esports. After losing in the first round, the Vietnamese unexpectedly defeated Rainbow7 in the first round of the lower grid, and therefore ignominiously left the championship at the Top 12.
The team made it to Worlds 2023 thanks to a win at the home VCS Dusk 2023. In the grand finals they easily beat Team Whales with a score of 3-1.
In the debut match at Worlds 2023 Gam Esports played against LOUD. The Brazilians proved to be stronger, although GAM put up a fight. The match ended with the score 0-2 not in favour of GAM.
The most popular champions of GAM Esports
Fiora (3 matches, 100% wins) and Jax (3 matches, 66% wins) are the most frequently sent to the top line.
Wukong (3 matches, 100% winrate) and Lee Sin (3 matches, 66% wins) are the most frequently played among the foresters.
Lissandra (7 games, 85% win rate) is the most often played on the centre line.
Among shooters Zeri (6 matches, 50% win rate) is preferred.
And the usual Nautilus (8 matches, 75% of wins) is in the shooters.
Rainbow7 uniform
We continue the match analysis with an analysis of Rainbow7's form. In this match they will have to play as the number two with odds to win around 2.5.
Rainbow7 made it to the Worlds 2023 under the South American quota. The Mexican club, with zero Mexicans on the roster, had a successful home season: first it was Top 1 at LLA Opening 2023 with a 3-2 win against Six Karma, and then Top 1 at LLA Closing 2023, where they defeated Estra Esports 3-0 in the final.
- Rainbow7 line-up: Bong, Oddie, Mireu, Ceo, Lyonz .
In addition to regional honours, Raibow7 have the experience of playing at MSI in their pocket. They got there this year after personnel changes in the lineup at the Long Season. There they expectedly showed their game by finishing in the top 11.
Worlds 2023 is the 3rd tournament of the series for the Mexican club. Rainbow7 were previously featured in the main event of the year in 2017 and 2020 and twice they finished in the top 20. There is a minimal chance of rectifying the situation now, but it is hard to believe it all.
In their first match at the World Championships, Rainbow7 met PSG Talon. The main favourite to qualify for the group stage proved their status by beating their teammates 2-0.
The most popular Rainbow7 champions
On the top line, the most frequent guest is Renekton (5 matches, 40% wins).
The forest is favoured by Sejuani (6 matches, 83% wins).
The centre line is for Gragas (5 matches, 60% wins).
Among shooters the most popular is the ubiquitous Zeri (7 games, 42% wins).
On support, Nautilus is the most frequent (5 matches, 60% wins).
History of head-to-head meetings
Previously, the teams have not played each other in official matches on the professional scene. This will be their first clash.
Predicted outcome of GAM Esports vs Rainbow7 at Worlds 2023
In my opinion, GAM Esports should have no trouble beating the South American club. Rainbow7 did well to qualify for Worlds 2023, but their World Cup journey will end at the Play-In stage. It will end at the match against GAM.
Bottom line: GAM Esports wins.
