G2 Esports once again prove their dominance at Worlds 2023 by defeating Weibo Gaming in the second round of the Swiss stage. This victory puts them in the 2-0 bracket, just one step away from the knockouts.
In a surprising turn of events, G2 Esports emerged victorious against Weibo Gaming, who were considered favorites after their dominant performance against NRG. The game was filled with back-and-forth action, with both teams gaining advantages throughout. Weibo had the upper hand in dragon control, while G2 made some mistakes in Baron fights. These differences in macro and teamfighting gave Weibo an advantage and made them the expected winners.
However, G2 showcased their exceptional teamfighting skills and aggressive playstyle in the final moments of the game. Mikyx made risky but successful engages on Xiaohu and Crisp, eliminating Weibo’s key threats early in the fights. This approach allowed G2 to secure the win, despite some overextensions from Hans Sama and Caps.
With this victory, G2 now have three chances to qualify for the knockout stage. Their first opportunity will be on Saturday, where they will face an opponent yet to be determined. This time, they will have to perform even better in a best-of-three series. Weibo, on the other hand, moves to the 1-1 bracket.
Worlds 2023 continues with more matches today and tomorrow, as the Swiss stage progresses.
