China has two representatitves at the playoffs in VCT Champions. Even with NRG being masters of revenge matches, BLG proved just why they deserved to go through.

BLG didn’t have the best start in the Swiss Stage. Meanwhile, HLE had a stronger start in the Swiss Stage. They will next face fellow Weibo Gaming in an all-Chinese affair for the first spot in the Grand Finals.

And in the third match, Gen.G would begin its journey to complete the reverse-sweep. Hwan-joong Delight Yoo also showed great awareness and team fight prowess to get 17 assists with Rell. Even Wang-Ho Peanut Han and Kim Peyz Su-hwan got in on the action with six kills apiece. Unfortunately, it all came crashing down for Gen.G in game five. BLG was finally able to start on the front foot after going behind in the past two games....

Once the snowball had begun, there was no stopping it, as BLG ran away with the victory.

Bilibili Gaming are now the second major Chinese esports organisation to formally announce their entry into MLBB. MLBB’s Chinese expansion also follows a landmark year for the country’s budding MLBB esports scene in 2024.

With the series score now tied at 1-1, it was BLG who came back swinging in the third. Game four was a do-or-die match for T1 as their backs were against the wall. And like clockwork, the reigning world champions were able to pull something out of their hats.

As for Gen.G, they will have to settle for a top-four finish at MSI. But today was all about BLG. A fellow debutant at MSI, this was BLG’s first-ever foray into a Riot Games international tournament.

This comes after BLG secured a hard-fought victory over the LCS’Golden Guardians. As for GG, their journey isn’t over yet with the lower bracket still to play for. With GG not fully contesting it, BLG took it as an invitation to try and end the game. As for GG, they went with a totally different composition to throw BLG off....

It’s also looking like Chen “bin” Ze-Bin’s prediction is coming true. This was enough for BLG to push down T1’s middle lane to take the first match. The transition to the mid-game saw both teams happy to maintain distance to farm up. But it all sprung to life with BLG contesting T1’s baron attempt. And that was mainly where the action was with both teams trading kills from early on.
