WBG had a regretful loss to RNG when some of their pillars made mistakes at decisive moments.
Weibo Gaming entered the important match against Royal Never Give Up with an underrated attitude. Because, SofM’s opponent and current teammates are the defending champions of both LPL and MSI 2022. However, RNG still has weaknesses, in terms of pre-season preparation, in the new factor Breathe… And these are the factors for the WBG to exploit to find victory.
And in fact, WBG has proven that they are not easy to bully once they are focused. Even if the opponent is RNG, WBG still has a way to make the defending champions face many difficulties. In the first game, if it wasn’t for Angel and ON making mistakes in important teamfights, WBG could even make RNG “hate”. Unfortunately, the members of RNG were too good and with the errors of Angel and ON, WBG accepted to lose the first game to RNG.
But entering game 2, WBG had a spectacular comeback and destroyed RNG right from the laning phase. SofM and his teammates played extremely hard and didn’t give RNG any chance to “flip” like in game 1 anymore. WBG’s game was so dominant that no one saw the figure of the RNG champion and the match was brought back to the starting line.
But in game 3, the WBG players could not continue the psychological advantage. RNG this time is the destruction team and after getting the Elder Dragon, RNG pushes the “snowball”. TheShy and SofM, Huanfeng’s efforts in vain were not enough to pull the game back. WBG had to accept defeat before the defending champion.
This is the 2nd loss of WBG and also a regretful loss. One bright spot, however, is that the WBG has shown, once focused, how dangerous they can be. Only thing, WBG must maintain this focus as long as possible. Because, their journey in the 2022 LPL Summer and the rest of this year’s season has just begun.
