The upper line: Armut and Hasmed
Both domestic and international, Armut and Hasmed – the two top lines used many biased champions instead of as a background or resistance. In the summer tournament in the summer, the three most trusted generals of Gwen, Aatrox and Akali, while ARMUT is Aatrox, Gwen and Gnar.
In domestic tournaments, both contributed to the team an almost similar amount of damage that showed the role of both with the play of each team almost equal. In terms of personal parameters, the area difference helps Hasmed for themselves up to 26 times solo kill rival, while that number of Armut is only 5. This does not actually reflect too much because it is not possible to compare VCS like LEC, but it can be seen confidence and aggression in Hasmed.
This could also be a weakness of the SGB captain, when this time, Hasmed always had unnecessary tiger competitions to be exploited by the forest and road. It must also be emphasized that this aggression does not stem from the superior travel but only from the lack of concentration in competition. In the 5 games in the play-in Britain using 5 different generals, this is a praiseworthy thing, but the general has to go hand in hand with the effectiveness. Parameters indicate that Hasmed is currently playing under the shoulder level before the 15th minute.
The parameters are evenly negative: the average soldier index in the 15th minute is -5, gold gap -413, and the experience is -700. Hasmed's damage to the team remains stable at 24.1 % but he also often has situations of straying in the next stage or opening a lack of computing. Although in the match against RNG, he had a situation of 5 people lulling forest, but that much did not compensate for the doubts of the previous fans for Hasmed. In the current version when people have paid more attention to the role of the top line, this is a signal that is not much positive for SGB.
On the other side of the battle line, Armut is a player who has a lot of experience in international war. He played relatively carefully and did quite well in the road. Armut's 15-minute leading rate at the Play-in is 100%, an average of up to 22 soldiers at this time, leading to 1200 gold and 1100 experience at 15 minutes compared to rivals in the same road. He is also a factor that makes Mad Lions always have favorable starts in the Playin round.
In the rematch of Mad Lions and SGB, perhaps Aatrox was still the general that both placed in the dispute. Besides, SGB will have to pay attention to Gnar, the general that Armut is now using very effectively. In addition, Hasmed needs to be more calm than in front of the lion's house, even if you lose a bit in the tournament.

Forest: Elyoya and beanj
Both Elyoya and Beanj are very important factors that make the team's tactics in the early game. Both are junglers who tend to intervene early in the match and work hard to organize small phases around soft goals and make background when reaching big goals.
In the domestic league, both of them are more about to use junglers in the summer meta such as Poppy, Leesin, Wukong and make them relatively effective. The parameters in the domestic reflection of the effectiveness of both are somewhat equal.
As for the performance of the international arena in Group B Play-in, Elyoya always leads the forest monster and experience compared to the jungler on the other side of the battle. Especially in the match against DRX, Elyoya has implemented its smooth lines that make Pyosik overwhelmed.
Elyoya is also a person who often brings unexpected and risky cards, Bel'veth with Drx can be considered as such a risky choice, which also helps Mad Lions more surprising in the ban and SGB, where a young jungler, a younger age will be very young to be wary.
Beanj brings play-in 5 different junglers in 5 games. He somewhat shows that he is a diverse jungler in a variety of styles, can hold out any generals who need. Confronting with excellent junglers, Beanj hardly lost to the forest monster and experience compared to the opponent, the ability to control and exchange targets is still good compared to this common play-in.
However, Beanj also often has careless situations for the opponent to exploit as in the match he uses Leesin to confront RNG. Those are also almost unnecessary situations and in decisive first games like the upcoming Bo5 series, that error should soon be overcome.
In general, the forest in the current version still decides many general games in at least the first 20 minutes of each team. This will also be a heavy position of both tactics.

Middle line Nisqy and Frogy
It is clear that the trend between the play-in is still inclined to make play and moves in two wings, creating a premise in fighting more like Vex, Lissandra, Sylas, Swain. The generals like Viktor, Azir are still partly effective but are most optimal in the hands of mid lane players who are really confident about their qualifications.
As for SGB and Mad Lions, both mid lines have a direction to use the generals as the above background. In domestic, Nisqy is the most priority to use Taliyah, Sylas and Swain, he is also the MVP group stage with the ability to reverse prestige, discomfort and mutations in key fighting.
Friargy is similar to options such as Taliyah, Galio or Lissandra, adding unpredictable options for 2 lanes like Seraphine or Shyvana, even the mid lane Kalista was once brought out by the frog at MSI 2022.
Especially, the Zac card of Froggy makes many people very impressive and is still a general that is considered as a pretty effective choice against Sylas – which is strong in the meta now.
The same part of the game makes the general dispute in the mid lane, but not as much as the upper lane when both of them have the heterogeneous songs that can be brought out. At this play-in in the only clash, Nisqy used Swain in combination with Seraphine at the bottom line to be extremely effective against SGB's Galio Wombo Wombo. Frongy's ability to Laning compared to Nisqy is actually not too bad when after 15 minutes, he is not inferior in the soldier index.
Because all of the directions using the island island, these two mid lane players are not outstanding too much in terms of soldiers, experience and gold in the 15th minute. With Froggy, the gap of the soldiers in the 15th minute is -5, experience +129 and gold is -462, the average contribution of 69% of the network has defeated and 23% of the total team damage. As for Nisqy, the average gap of this soldier is -7.8, the experience of -237 but has the amount of gold leads on average +197. His contribution is up to 75.5% of the total defeated network and 27.7% of the team damage.
Obviously, the loss of Frander compared to Nisqy is there, but not too much and the difference depends on the teammates because the common play of the middle line in this Bo5 series will probably move to create more mutations.

Below: Shogun – Taki and Unforgiven – Kaiser
After the changes of Riot in version 12.18, the role of the bottom lane in each match is somewhat more or less reduced, but this is still an extremely important position in the match and deciding the victory of each combat to the second half.
In the domestic tournament Unforgivivate and Kaiser also entered the typical squad of the group stage and showed relatively uncomfortable walkways for Zeri, Jinx and Draven combined with familiar supports such as Yuumi, Nautilus, Leona. Parameters and damage in the fighting of Mad Lions are always quite impressive and superior.
In the past games, Mad Lions showed many types of play in the bottom lane, which gives them many different tactics such as Swain's super recovery, Seraphine, lightning fighting with Miss Fortune and Kaisa, …
Although there are 2 matches using Seraphine at Playin, the lower line Mad Lions still contributes more than 25% of the team's total damage, 69% of the network defeated.
The gameplay of Kaiser support is not much impressive in recent times and somewhat influenced by the fights around the forest rather than regularly moving other lines. The evidence is clear that Kaiser's defeat and vision is not too impressive, only contributing 62% to defeat the whole team, lower than the gunner Unforgivivate.
The great weakness of Mad's bottom line lies in Unforgiviv also often have situations lying down slightly the momentum of the team in the game after the game, dragging the game of the whole team down, demonstrating his lack of concentration in the match with DRX so that the DRX can turn the flag upside down.
On the opposite side, the bottom line is currently the biggest expectation where fans put in Buffalo. Right from the domestic league, Shogun has been famous for his harsh Carry Gunners such as Aphelios, Kalista, Sivir and has many impressive Multikill. In the world, “the person who sealed the power of the gunner” was always a reputable gunman that brought about the fighting victories for the Red Buffalo. In the last matches against the big teams, Shogun did not show themselves inferior to the veteran gunner such as Deft or Gala, they went on a fair road and made relatively contributions to the overall fighting.

Shogun's travel index remains well, accounting for 77.5% of the team to defeat the whole team and deal an average of 32.5% of damage. Those figures are enough to understand the importance of Shogun in the tactics of the current Red Buffalo. This must also mention the good ability to play Taki support, but Taki is often a bit excited after Duo Kill and losing unnecessary defeated lives. But the bottom line is still the most confident red buffalo before the confrontation Mad Lions.
In this clash, Mad Lions certainly also understands the shogun. At the previous meeting, they showed the effect when spending the first 3 banned for the gunner, making the same invisible shogun pushed into his less familiar options. To be able to optimize the lower lane, perhaps Mr. Ren and the buffaloes should have books before Mad can focus on this road area.
Mad Lions is obviously the team is not weak. This is also a heavy opponent of SGB at this time, but the Mad Lions's 2022 -year -old winner is still something that SGB can still expect to continue. Although in the 5 positions, there were at least 3 MAD's positions superior, SGB still had chances with his tactics and experience Bo5 Ren for the past 1 year. Predict SGB victory 3-1.
