When the branch as well as the newly identified matches, the majority of the Worlds watchers agree that this will certainly be the most anticipated confrontation in the quarterfinals. Although both are not the No. 1 seed, they must confirm that they are the most popular teams and the symbol of the region. Also because they are rich in tradition and often participate in the world finals, they also often have the opportunity to clash with each other and the debt of both in every international tournament is a thrilling anecdote.
In 2016, at the Mid Season Invitational tournament without being able to wake up the same opponent, Royal Never Give Up was the first team that was directly at the 4th group of the 4 -group team, the SKT at that time in the semi -finals. Although the first team met the 4th team, the Royal Army was unexpectedly defeated with a score of 1-3, thereby pitying at SKT gradually to the first MSI championship.
At the world final of the same year, RNG is also the opponent of SKT T1 in the quarterfinals, when RNG is the second team in the group with the presence of Samsung Galaxy, the forerunner of Gen.G Esports as this year, and SKT is also the most team in the group with Cloud9. And in this Bo5 series, SKT is still steady, once again causing RNG to hate when he again defeated 1-3 and stopped in the quarterfinals of the tournament.
Only one year later, in the 2017 World Championship, when this time RNG was no longer in the second table, both did not have the opportunity to meet in the quarterfinals, both clashed in the semi -finals. This is also a match that left a lot of impression with fans around the world with 5 tense games and all 5 Faker games chose the background, Make Play Galio. Although struggling than the previous times, Faker and his teammates were still the last victims.
In 2019, both SKT and RNG participated in the World Championship and the fate of bringing them into the death group and here, the representative of Han Trieu's No. 1 that year, SKT T1 defeated Rng both matches and returns, in different ways. They also indirectly the team that pushed RNG back home from the group stage, starting what was called the No. 2 seed of LPL seed, and until today.
Most recently, at MSI 2022. The balance between the two was almost perfect this year when he split 1 game in two meetings in the group stage. The two also met at the Bo5 series in the final and it was here that the match ended after 5 games with the victory in favor of Royal Never Give Up, they also officially became the second team after SKT T1 in the past to have 2 Mid Season Invitational championship trophies and the first team to take the throne 3 times at this prestigious tournament. It was T1 in the interview after the victory match Edward Gaming also said that he wanted to see RNG to reclaim MSI debt. And now the bridge is expected to see the boys t1 !!
