Today G2 Esports took on Gen.G in the knockout stage of Worlds 2020, with the winner securing a spot in the semi-final. Ultimately it was G2 Esports that was able to win three matches in a row, defeating Gen.G with a convincing 3-0 scoreline and moving on to the next stage.
G2 Esports was able to find leads in almost all games, finding fights across the map thanks to excellent roaming from support player Mihael “Mikyx” Mehle on picks such as Rakan and Pantheon. The absolute standout player was G2 mid laner Rasmus “Caps” Borregaard however, who was able to impress a lot on champions like Sylas and Twisted Fate. This G2 Esports look like they might be a legitimate contender to win it all.
