Royal Never Give Up
Royal Never Give Up continues to surprise the e-sports world this season: after changing the position of the team's best player Xiaohu from Mid to Top, RNGU won the LPL 2021 Spring Season regular season and, after a poor start in the playoffs, emerged from the bottom of the standings to win the LPL 2021 Spring Season regular season and the MSI 2021 ticket. Of course, it wasn't only Xiaohu's role reversal that had such an impact on the RNGU's improvement, but it was certainly one of the most important moments. Xiaohu is an individually talented player who has spent many years with the organisation, and with the Mid Champ Pool, he stands out among the Top Position players.
Another noteworthy aspect of the RNGU's game is the team's bottom line duo Ming and GALA. Ming is a veteran in the RNGU ranks, having played alongside Uzi, considered to be the best ADC of all time, back when the RNGU was among the world's elite. GALA seems to be improving by the week rather than by the season when playing alongside Ming on the same line. From being a rookie in his second season playing for the RNGU, GALA has emerged as one of the team's trusted guides.
All the changes have led to the RNGU returning to the LPL elite for the first time this season after the retirement of one of the LPL's brightest personalities, Uzi. Royal Never Give Up MSI continues to be the only team in the tournament that has not lost a single game, and will be looking to extend the streak and remove the favourites tag from DAMWON KIA, who RNGU would be the favourites to win the tournament if they defeat them for a second time.
DAMWON KIA
DAMWON KIA won the spring season of the LCK without any problems and extended their interest in this league. The world champion team made one notable change this season, replacing Nuguri, who is considered to be the world's best Top position player, with the experienced and individually very talented Khan. Khan's style of play is quite different from Nuguri's, but he is more team-oriented and less likely to look for opportunities to outplay his opponent 1×1. This is sometimes a positive and sometimes a negative thing, but the fact is that he brings more stability to the team.
DAMWON KIA stands out from all MSI teams for its team play and understanding of the game - they may sacrifice one side of the map if they see that they can get much more on the other side, they will sacrifice one kill to get 2 towers or another important objective. This is a smart team that, even when seemingly not playing aggressively, is able to create big advantages that lead to the formality of finishing the game.
Since DAMWON KIA lost the first match against RNGU, there is a good chance that this time the opponents will be taken more seriously and that they will not make such hard-to-understand mistakes in the choice of champions, where DAMWON KIA simply played themselves.
Forecast
The match between DAMWON KIA and RNGU will show which team deserves the status of favourite and which team will finish the second round of the tournament in first place. In the first meeting between these teams, DAMWON KIA fielded a full AD team, while RNGU had a tanky and later stage oriented champions, which led to DAMWON's defeat. Overall, even in that match, if the team had had a better build-up, DAMWON would have built up advantages and possibly would have ended the match at the mid-game stage.
