blg vs. mad

blg wins.

the first round of the swiss round is also the opening match of the s14 main event. the first game is between the lpl champion no. 1 seed blg and the host european lec no. 3 seed mad. the luck of the draw is not good for the lpl, because mad is the relatively strongest team among the four finalists, and the other three teams are weak wild cards. and because it is bo1, the opponent is the european team that is best at this mode. there are many black technologies and unknown tactics, so blg has a certain risk of overturning.

however, if the combination of bin+wei+knight+elk+on cannot even win mad, then they have no qualifications to be among the favorites to win the championship this year. moreover, mad's performance in the qualifying rounds is obvious to all. compared with the level of lpl and lck, they are not a very strong team, so we still predict that blg can win.

t1 vs. tes

t1 wins.

the second bo1 of the swiss round is the highlight, with lck's fourth seed t1 facing off against lpl's second seed tes. although there is a gap in the seeding order of the representative regions, on the one hand, the changes in version 14.18 are beneficial to t1, especially the return of a large number of mages in the middle, which makes faker feel like a fish in water. on the other hand, tes has not performed well since the end of the summer season, and t1 has already had experience defeating tes in the saudi petroleum cup. overall, t1 has a higher probability of winning.

geng vs. wbg

geng wins.

the third game of the swiss round is also the focus of the game. in order to take care of the jet-lag viewers, the two most exciting games of the first round are all arranged in the top three. geng is obviously the team with a greater chance of winning. they are a strong championship team wearing the skin of the second seed, the new champion of msi in the mid-season, and the favorite to win the s14. in front of geng, wbg does not have any line that has an advantage in terms of paper strength. even rank king tarzan can't do it in front of canyon. not to mention an elderly mid laner like xiaohu facing off against chovy who is in his prime.

dk vs. fnatic

dk wins.

fnatic's jungler likes to invade in the early stage, but he may be in trouble when he meets dk's rookie lucid. since the support was replaced at the end of the season, dk, who has gradually become more stable, is much better than before with kellin. dk is also one of the teams that benefited from the version changes. showmaker's signatures are syndra and enchantress.

lng vs. tl

lng wins.

a blessing in disguise, a scout almost destroyed the lng team before the game. when the reputation of some players was at rock bottom, they got the top picks in the draw. north american liquid is already the weakest opponent among the opponents they can choose in the first round. if they can't win, they can really prepare their plane tickets and go home in advance.

hle vs. psg

hle wins.

there is no suspense, the gap in absolute strength, psg is going well all the way!

gam vs. fly

fly wins.

this is a relatively suspenseful matchup. gam is already one of the best in the wild card, so facing north america, which is the weakest among the four major competition regions, it obviously has a chance to win. but this fly team has european players in the top lane, korean players in the mid lane, and north american players in the bottom lane, so it still has some strength. if gam doesn't have an advantage in the early stage, fly will definitely win in the mid-term.

g2 vs png

g2 wins.

the europeans were ecstatic to sign, and it was simply a free gift, a replica of such a wonderful start 2.0. among the entire top 16, there is no weaker team than png. if g2 draws png, it means that the host country has good luck and will win. if the strongest teams in europe and the united states can't even pass a wild card, brazil png, then you can watch the joker in advance this year. at least last year, it was only after g2 started 2-0 that they performed a three-game losing streak and went home.

uncertainty of bo1

the above are just our predictions. the lpl will have 2 wins and 2 losses in the first round, lck will win all 4 games, and lec and lcs will win one game each. there is uncertainty in bo1. in this mode, qizhaohui has the ability to overturn any past data results. after all, paper strength is just an arm's length talk. although in most cases the outcome will be in line with expectations, history tells us that there are still many surprises.
