Gen.G took down Fnatic to secure the first seed of the Group C. Gen.G’s Ruler took over the game on Aphelios. He finished the game with a score of 6/0/2, 229 creeps and 12.1k gold. He looked really great so far even when Gen.G is losing in other lanes. He has been regarded as one of the best ADCs to participate during this year’s World Championship and he lives up to it. His duo partner of Life in the bottom life is a great supporting, allowing Ruler to perform really well.
On the other hand, Fnatic picked a poor composition with barely any damage. They picked Malphite in the top lane, Lulu in the mid lane and Senna in the bottom lane. Malphite is notorious for being only an initiator and then falling off as the game goes by. Lulu needed a hyper carry to perform and Senna is the complete opposite.
The 2020 Season World Championship (Worlds 2020) is the conclusion of the 2020 League of Legends esports season. The tournament is held in Shanghai, China. The tournament began with Play-In stages on Sep. 25 and will conclude on Oct. 31 with the finals between two teams which would be arguably the best in the World.
The Main-Event stage began on Oct. 3 and will feature the best 16 teams in the World. 8 out of them will advance to the knockout stage where they’ll have a shot at advancing forward.
The format for qualification in North America and Europe changed this year, with teams only being able to qualify directly through the LCS Summer Playoffs and LEC Summer Playoffs, respectively. Seeding Changes: China and Europe both receive one extra seed for a total of four, while the PCS is given two seeds, compared to a combined four for the LMS and Southeast Asia in 2019. In summary, one main event seed previously held by the LMS is given to Europe, and the play-in seed previously held by Southeast Asia is given to China.
Due to Vietnamese teams being unable to participate, the Play-In format was heavily adjusted, and the region’s Main Event spot was given to Korea’s 3rd seed. If Vietnamese teams had been allowed to participate, Team Flash would have played in the Main Event and GAM Esports would have played in the Play-In.
