After the first two days of the play-in, Furia was the first team to be eliminated, and Bilibili Gaming went straight to the Bracket round of MSI 2025. In the near future, only the match between Esports and G2 Esports will determine the last team to enter the branch, and the loss team will be eliminated from the tournament.
The results of this match are also affecting the draw results of the MSI 2025 tournament. Riot Games has clearly stated that the MSI 2025 draw method is based on the division of seeds with the following steps:
– Level 1: Seed No. 1 in LCK (Geng) and LEC (MKOI)
– Level 2: Seed No. 1 in LCP (CTBC Flying Oyster) and LPL (Anyone's Legend)
– Level 3: Seed No. 1 in LTA (Flyquest) and No. 2 seed LCK (T1)
– Level 4: Two teams overcome the Bilibili Gaming and G2 Esports/grams Esports)
Accordingly, the first team will meet the fourth team, the second team meets the 3rd team. With the regulation of the teams in the same area without the same branch, the case of G2 Esports win will automatically identify the matches:
– Geng vs G2 Esports (Battle 1)
– Anyone's Legend vs Flyquest (Battle 2)
– CTBC Flying Oyster vs T1 (match 3)
– Mkoi vs Bilibili Gaming (match 4)
In this case, the two European representatives are MKOI (level 1) and G2 Esports (level 4) cannot meet, so it is possible to identify the two matches of match 1 and 4.
However, in the case of Esports grams winning, the draw positions will change completely. Because CTBC Flying Oyster at level 2, in case two teams in the same area may not be confronted. Therefore, the eSports gram can confront both Geng and Mkoi. The same case occurs with teams at level 2 and 4, so there will be 4 teams that have not been located. Level 3 does not change due to T1 and Geng in the same region, by default two teams will be in two different branches.
Riot Games has confirmed that if the Esports GAM passes the play-in round, the organizers will launch a coin to identify 4 pairs of branches of the branch. The final match of the play-in MSI 2025 round will start at 7am on June 30 (Vietnam time).
