As Worlds 2022 wraps up final preparations for the start of the Play-In, less iconic events are taking place in the world of the competitive League of Legends. These include Asia Star Challengers Invitational 2022, where young players have a chance to make themselves known and become famous.
16 academic teams of title clubs played for the prize pool of $65,000, including: DAMWON Academy, T1 Challengers, FunPlus Phoenix Blaze, EGD Young and others. Now the tournament is at the semi-final stage, which means that only 4 teams are left in the race for the championship.
To be more precise, there are 3 teams left, because the first match ½ is over. In the finals, EGD Young is waiting for their opponent, and the winner of the T1 Challengers - MAX pair will be the winner. Let's talk about them.
We figure out which of the young teams will become the second finalist of Asia Star Challengers Invitational 2022 and fight with EDG Young for the main prize of $25,000.
T1 Challengers Uniform
T1 Challengers will be the favorites for this match. The chance of success for the academic staff of the famous South Korean club is estimated at a coefficient of 1.69.
It is not difficult to agree with the bookmakers, because T1 Challengers is the household name of the League of Legends world. Under the tutelage of a huge staff of technical staff, including coaches, psychologists and other specialists, the future stars of Summoner's Rift have every chance of success in the Asia Star Challengers Invitational 2022 at least.
You might think that the conditions created for the players and the patronage of the top club do all the work for the players, but this is not so. T1 Challengers earn their fame with blood and sweat.
The team competes in the LCK CL and shows decent results there, although not ideal. In the 2022 competitive year, the T1 youth roster reached the TOP-6 at LCK CL Spring 2022, after which they doubled their performance at the LCK CL Summer 2022 summer split, taking 3rd place there.
During the Asia Star Challengers Invitational 2022 T1 Challengers played in Group A with a score of 4-2, which allowed them to reach the first round of the playoffs. The debut in the main stage went smoothly - the team defeated Korean Streamer with a score of 3-0 without any problems, advancing to the semi-finals.
T1 Challengers roster
- Photon
- Forest
- TolanD
- trigger
- Kabbie
The team was formed in December 2021 and still remains unchanged. Once again, the seriousness of T1's approach to the formation of a potential replacement for the main players affects.
Heroes T1 Challengers
T1 Challengers have the following picture in terms of picks: Nautilus (29 games), Aphelios (24 matches), Jinx (15 games), Gnar (14 matches), Renekton (14 matches), Viego (13 matches) are most often selected.
The highest scoring player in terms of win rate is midlaner Toland with a win rate of 65.9%.
Form MAX
Opposing T1 Challengers in the status of a nominal underdog will be MAX. The team from China is given 2.06 to win.
Despite the significance of the tag, MAX remains only a few tenths in the coefficient values. This testifies to the viability of the team, which it showed during the season and Asia Star Challengers Invitational 2022 in particular.
MAX is a member of the youth league LPL, tournaments of the LDL series. This year alone, the Chinese club played at LDL Spring and LDL Summer, taking bronze both times.
At the last LDL Summer 2022 MAX, in the match for reaching the grand finals, they lost to FunPlus Phoenix Blaze with a score of 1-3; a 4-2 score allowed the team to qualify for the playoffs.
In the main stage, MAX already left behind the Taiwanese from Beyond Gaming Academy, beating them with a score of 3-0. Now they have another test ahead of them.
Composition MAX
- Garvey
- Kenny Chan
- Medzz
- Xiaguang
- XinMo
- Crush3
The most seasoned MAX player is KennyChan. Jungler joined the team in February 2021 and has been playing under the academy banner ever since.
Heroes MAX
Most Selected Chinese Youth Characters: Jinx (23 matches), Lee Sin (21 matches), Aphelios (21 matches), Nautilus (21 matches), Gnar (20 matches).
The top scoring player is the Garvey topper. The performer has a win rate of 72% in 61 matches, which is already a good indicator.
History of personal confrontations
Previously, the teams did not play each other. This fight will be the debut face-to-face confrontation between the teams.
Exodus
In this match, I'm looking forward to fighting for Jinx at the pico-ban stage. Both teams like to use the character, although if she is blocked, disputes will begin for another ADK - Aphelios.
Since the match is equal, predicting the winner is not so easy. Be that as it may, I would like to see the Chinese-Korean final in the final, and therefore I will give preference to T1 Challengers.
Bottom line: T1 Challengers win.
