Predictions

Fnatic have not enjoyed the best time at League of Legends Worlds 2023. The second seed from the LEC have been clearly outclassed by the LPL and LCK teams but managed to excel against other regions.

While this leaves them with a 2-2 record, performances against teams from the best regions aren't promising. Fnatic's excessive reliance on superstar mid laner Marek "Humanoid" Brázda is also a major issue, as counterparts from the East are more than capable of handling him effectively.

However, Fnatic's unwavering mindset and incredible tenacity allow them to pull off great teamfights amidst chaotic scenarios. If the EMEA representatives can find a way to pull Weibo Gaming, a team that loves a skirmish, out of their comfort zone, they will have a good chance of landing a huge upset

Weibo Gaming's trajectory at League of Legends Worlds 2023 has been interesting. After absolutely demolishing NRG in their opening matchup, they suffered consecutive losses against G2 Esports and KT Rolster. However, the team arrested this run by bouncing back against MAD Lions.

The LPL's 4th seed have suffered major consistency issues this year, which resurfaced at the most prestigious international tournament. However, the team boasts some of the best talents in the world who can become extremely clutch during pivotal moments.

Weibo Gaming's incredible mechanics, paired with their extremely aggressive playstyle, make them a fun team to watch and a very difficult opponent to face.
