We continue to review the main event of the world and potentially the biggest tournament of the Worlds 2022. On the agenda we have a match between RNG and Saigon Buffalo.
Obviously, in this analysis, we will mainly talk about Royal Never Give Up. I don't want to say anything bad about Saigon Buffalo, it's about them - the representative of China is much more interesting.
As I already mentioned in one of the reviews, the regional division in League of Legends is actually elevated to the absolute. To rule on the regional stage is a great achievement, because the developed LoL esports ecosystem generates a lot of competition within the regions.
Obviously, the situation is disproportionate: some regions are better developed than others, and China is one of them. But RNG, just the same representative of China, and even what.
RNG shape
RNG will open their first match at Play-In Worlds 2022 as an absolute favorite. The victory of the team is estimated by a crushing coefficient in the region of 1.1.
It is foolish to deny that against the backdrop of RNG Saigon Buffalo look like ignoramuses. It's obvious, but what's less obvious to me is how RNGs look against themselves. I'll explain now.
We are back in May 2022. Mid-Season Invitational, the second largest and most important LoL tournament in the world.
Royal Never Give Up smashed group B to smithereens, after which they took the Rumble Stage without any problems. In the playoffs, the team crushes EG in the first round, and then in the enchanting finals they overtake the “great and terrible” T1, who have set the teeth on edge for many.
Inspired RNGs change Bin to Breath on June 1, after which a series of confusion begins. At LPL Summer 2022, the “kings” finish in the TOP-6, after which they reluctantly take 2nd place in the regional finals, which allowed them to get here.
A rather crutch path turned out for such a formidable club in the middle of the season. Play-In will be a test of strength for the Chinese giants.
Heroes RNG
In their RNG matches, Gwen (12 matches, 50% win rate), Viego (11 matches, 63%), Lissandra (9 matches, 77% winrate) are most often preferred.
Saigon Buffalo shape
Saigon Buffalo will compete with RNG. Close in spirit, but far in terms of performance, representatives of Vietnam have very meager chances of winning - the success rate exceeds 7.
It is hard to believe in representatives of a region that is not the most formidable in the international arena, especially when the opponent is the reigning MSI champions, albeit battered by the LPL regular season.
I won’t have any special hopes for buffaloes in this match, however, if excitement is inherent in you, a coefficient around 7 is tempting. I do not recommend anything, but bo1 is bo1.
Heroes Saigon Buffalo
Gwen is also found in the Buffalo picks, but the similarities disappear on her. Saigon Buffalo often take Wukong, Taliyah, Aphelios. The first 66% of wins, the monkey king has a win rate of 70%.
History of personal confrontations
RNG used to play against Saigon Buffalo. Twice as part of MSI at the Rumble Stage and came out the winner twice.
Match outcome
I will not be tempted by the underdog odds. In this match, RNG should show class and run over Saigon Buffalo without any problems.
Bottom line: an impeccable victory for RNG.
