Since the 2023 season, Riot Games has made an extremely correct decision with MSI to increase the number of representatives of major regions from 1 to 2 teams. This decision helps MSI's competitiveness become extremely high when the tournament becomes a place for many strong teams to compete. For MSI 2024, the mere presence of teams like Gen.G, T1, BLG… is more than enough to ensure the quality of this tournament.
MSI 2024 will have the participation of the world's top stars today
Not stopping there, the performances of bright stars like Faker, Chovy, Bin… are also highly anticipated by the audience. These are all players with great reputations, showing a stable performance in the recent spring tournament. However, with TheShy, he has a completely different thought. Even in his exclusive interview, TheShy shared that a surprising name will shine at the upcoming MSI 2024.
“At the upcoming MSI 2024, TES will be one of the LPL representatives attending the tournament. Based on what has been shown, I think JackeyLove is in an extremely good state. I've played with JackeyLove for many years and understand that he can do unimaginable things. So I think JackeyLove will shine brightly at MSI 2024 this time” – TheShy shared.

Immediately after this interview was published, many viewers were quite surprised by TheShy's choice. I agree that JackeyLove and TheShy were teammates, but rating this player so highly is something few people think about. Especially in the context that JackeyLove and TES just received defeat at the 2024 LPL Spring Finals.
“It's hard to believe whether TheShy is telling the truth or not?” – An audience commented on the above interview
“Even though JackeyLove was crushed by Elk in the last Final, he is still trusted by TheShy. They must be very close” – Another audience shared
“Hey TheShy, do you think JackeyLove is better than Ghost?” – A gamer commented sarcastically
To be fair, TES in general and JackeyLove in particular in previous seasons often gave the audience a not so good impression. This team often shows an “unstable” face and easily fails against high-class teams. Typically, in the 2023 season, TES only got 7th-8th place in LPL Spring and failed to win tickets to Worlds. Perhaps for this reason, LPL audiences think that TheShy is just trying to praise his former colleague JackeyLove instead of giving a fair assessment before MSI 2024.
TheShy and JackeyLove are extremely close friends
However, LPL Spring 2024 shows TES's great progress as they have found more solid playing plans to aim for victory. This helped them win tickets to MSI 2024 as LPL Spring Runner-up. Not stopping there, JackeyLove himself also showed extremely good performance this season when he was the factor “carrying the team” for TES in many difficult matches. Thanks to JackeyLove's excellent positioning ability, TES won the only game in the recent LPL Spring 2024 Final.
TES's only victory at the 2024 LPL Spring Finals owes a great deal to JackeyLove.
Therefore, it is entirely possible for JackeyLove to shine at MSI 2024 as TheShy shared. It is likely that TES will soon pass the Start-Up round of MSI 2024 thanks to its superior qualifications compared to representatives from CBLOL, LEC or VCS. However, if it still cannot maintain stability when facing big names in important rounds, it will be difficult for TES to be in the group competing for the title at MSI 2024 this time.
