Foreword: The S16 season has officially kicked off, and most players have been keeping an eye on the recent matches. The MSI tournament is drawing to a close. This time, both the second seeds from the LPL and LCK have been eliminated, especially T1, who were highly anticipated but ended up being crushed by G2 without mercy.

Foreword: The S16 season has officially begun, and most players have been closely following the recent matches. The MSI tournament has been quite intense. Now only three teams remain, and two best-of-five series will determine the MSI champion.

The greatest charm of esports competitions is that you cannot determine the outcome based on "paper strength" or "stereotypes." For example, the 2026 League of Legends Mid-Season Invitational produced many "upset highlights."

The 2026 League of Legends World Championship is down to its last two BO5 series. On the previous match day, a major clash took place between Western regions: G2 faced LYON and was swept 3-0, ultimately finishing in fourth place. After eliminating TOP Esports and T1 and being hailed as a championship favorite, G2 unexpectedly lost to LYON. The performance of the LPL's "third seed" is truly unpredictable—extremely high ceiling, yet a very low floor.

The League of Legends Mid-Season Invitational will wrap up in just two days. Riot Games recently updated its global team power rankings. BLG, which hasn't lost a single match at MSI, has once again topped the list. After T1 suffered an upset loss to G2, they dropped from third to fifth place. G2 took over T1's spot at second. HLE, now in the lower bracket, ranks third. GEN, who didn't even qualify for MSI, remains in fourth place.
