Immediately after the LPL Spring 2024 final between Top Esports and Bilibili Gaming ended, the draw for the 2024 Kick-off round immediately took place. If there are no problems arising, Suddenly in about a week, GAM Esports will participate in the tournament in Chengdu as the VCS champion. However, according to the new changes in the tournament format, VCS will only have one spot and may have to clash with famous names from LCK (T1) or LPL (TES).
If nothing changes, GAM will attend MSI 2024 as the defending VCS champion.
And the draw results put the VCS representative in Group B of the MSI 2024 Play-In round. GAM's opponent will be Fnatic – the team that once faced GAM itself in the Swiss Stage of Worlds 2023. In that match, GAM was completely destroyed by FNC. However, in reality, GAM still had good performances afterward and could also be said to have left the tournament with its head held high after defeating Team Liquid. This season, GAM's journey will be much more difficult when among the 3 representatives in Group B, only the team from CBLOL (undetermined) is the most suitable for GAM.
GAM will participate from the Play-In round and will be placed in Group B with the participation of TES and FNC
However, for VCS audiences, this is a volatile season. And in fact, the current GAM squad, even with Blazes and Pyshiro, cannot be considered the strongest squad in recent seasons. Previously, GAM always had 3 very strong top wing players, possessing both skills and experience. Currently, only Kiaya – Levi possesses this element. Therefore, the “best possible scenario” that the audience draws: GAM can make it difficult for FNC, even looking for at least 1 win against FNC and TES. After that, they will overcome the representative from CBLOL and try their best to deliver a loser's bracket final with 200% effort.
VCS audience started “drawing the script” for GAM
Of course, this only happens if GAM players really try their best within their abilities. In important matches, to win, a team needs to possess favorable weather, favorable conditions, and human resources. But before expecting the opponent to stumble, VCS players must first be self-reliant with all their abilities.
