In the recent Mid-Season Invitational (MSI) of League of Legends, European official casters expressed high expectations for the Korean team, Gen.G. They generally believe that Gen.G will demonstrate a completely different level of performance compared to other teams, even describing them as being on a "different tier." This undoubtedly adds pressure to Gen.G, especially in such a competitive environment.

However, as the tournament progresses, Gen.G's coach has revealed some concerning news. During recent team scrims, they faced significant pressure from the AL team. This situation has caused doubts about Gen.G's capabilities in the MSI.

According to the coach, AL has shown excellent execution of strategies and individual mechanics, putting Gen.G under immense pressure. This state raises concerns about whether Gen.G can perform at the expected level in official matches. The coach pointed out that the team needs to make deeper adjustments in the upcoming period to achieve breakthroughs in their performance.

Despite the high expectations from the outside, the team's performance in practice against strong opponents will be key in verifying their overall strength. Therefore, whether Gen.G can overcome their current challenges and restore their competitiveness in the upcoming matches will be a focal point of interest.

Additionally, this MSI poses a challenge for every participating team, as they must face internal coordination issues while also adapting to the prowess of their opponents. For Gen.G, seizing opportunities and showcasing their strengths amid uncertainties will test their tactical acumen and teamwork.

Regarding other teams, although some do not receive much attention due to underperformance, they often show surprising performances in official matches. This indicates the potential for any team to emerge as a dark horse in the League of Legends scene, showcasing the allure of esports.

Overall, this Mid-Season Invitational is expected to be filled with surprises and variables, as audiences look forward to witnessing thrilling battles and unpredictable outcomes. Whether Gen.G can navigate through their scrim difficulties and shine once again on stage remains to be seen.
