Greetings to all LPL fans and League of Legends summoners, this is Tianxia Game Report.
The Swiss stage of the S15 World Championship has fully wrapped up, and on the last day, an LPL internal battle occurred where BLG, after winning the first game, was overcome by their opponent who came back to win 2-1.

After the match concluded, everyone was analyzing the details and discovered the root cause of BLG’s loss.
The truth behind BLG’s elimination: Bin’s huge mistake in initiating the fight
Yesterday’s deciding match between BLG and TES was extremely intense, with both sides exchanging blows into the late game. TES had a strong late-game threat in their “Dragon” champion, and since BLG failed to accelerate and secure the Dragon Soul after losing the third dragon, TES’s Dragon was fully developed, causing BLG a lot of trouble.

At this point, BLG’s team fight focus had to be on that Dragon. If they could quickly initiate with Monkey King and Galio and catch the Dragon off guard with Weapon’s entry, they could win the team fight and advance.
However, TES also had a top laner playing Mordekaiser, who could effectively shut down the jungler Monkey King or Weapon, making it very difficult for BLG to win team fights. In the late game, Bin’s multiple flanking attempts with Weapon gave the impression he was trying his best, but the real truth is that Bin’s critical mistake losing the Baron pit fight was the main reason for the defeat.

In that key moment, Bin’s Weapon chose to enter alone to start the fight, but two major errors occurred. The first was his combo execution: he used Q to engage and then RE, which caused his E to miss stunning the Dragon.
Galio did not have his ultimate, so BLG was doomed to lose the team fight.
This combo had significant flaws; using Flash then ER would have been better. At the same time, another huge mistake was the timing of Weapon’s initiation — the mid laner Galio did not have his ultimate ready, meaning even if Weapon stunned the Dragon, Galio couldn’t follow up with crowd control.

Looking back, from a hindsight perspective, either one of these mistakes alone meant Bin should not have initiated the fight.
After this error, BLG’s chance of winning became very slim. Team fights were extremely difficult; although their counterattacks were decent, they couldn’t turn the tide. As long as TES’s five players revived and regrouped, they could still secure victory.
In the final Elder Dragon team fight, BLG’s flanking initiation was ineffective. Monkey King’s timing was off, and 369 managed to shut down the highly threatening Weapon, causing the team fight to instantly collapse with no chance to recover.

It can only be said that BLG deserved this loss. Throughout the Swiss stage, their team fighting, strategic command, decision-making, and mechanical execution were all lacking. The high error rate made it impossible to win tough matches, and the players’ form was poor — Bin was repeatedly solo killed by opposing top laners, and Elk’s performance was confusing throughout.
Harshly criticized by fans after the match, BLG might disband.
After the match ended, some fans captured footage of BLG leaving the venue. Many supporters were waiting to cheer them on, shouting encouragement when BLG appeared. However, during this, one male fan angrily told BLG to disband right to their faces.

This outburst angered many female fans, who then started criticizing the male fan for his harsh words about disbanding.
In my opinion, those fans criticizing BLG likely supported them before but became deeply disappointed with their performance, which explains their harsh remarks. In fact, BLG disbanding is quite possible.
The main reason is that this team has fundamental problems: unstable player form and serious mental issues. Their so-called “muscle playstyle” means simple brains with strong limbs; their favorite tactic is mechanical domination, but their decision-making is weak and they tend to panic when things go wrong.

As the LPL’s most heavily funded and strongest roster, BLG has repeatedly shown careless and chaotic play. Given the high expectations, their disappointing results justify fans’ criticism. The players’ peak has long passed, and in the future, they will likely regret missing their opportunities and find it difficult to achieve good results again.
