For the past few years, G2 Esports has been the most dominant team from Europe and a consistent representative at international events, but things are not quite the same. With different names in the Jungle and Support roles, the team's overall performance this year has been shaky.

As G2 Esports started its MSI 2025 campaign from the Play-In stage (second LEC seed), the team was almost on the verge of not securing the Bracket Stage berth. After a hard-fought victory against Furia (3-2), G2 got obliterated against LPL's Bilibili Gaming (0-3). Afterward, the team faced GAM Esports in a do-or-die series.

Although G2 won the series 3-2, after squandering a 2-0 lead, the individual performances were extremely underwhelming. Renowned players such as BrokenBlade, Hans Sama, and SkewMond made several macro mistakes that made the series difficult.

If G2 does not improve team synergy and correct individual mistakes, the team will massively struggle against Gen.G.

Gen.G, on the other hand, can be considered the best LoL Esports team in the world right now. The team went unbeaten throughout the first two rounds (18-0) of the LCK 2025 Regular Season, where all five players showed a great display of confidence and individual brilliance.

Gen.G players have a deep champion pool, are extremely versatile, and greatly adjust to the ever-changing LoL meta. Although the team has yet to play an official match in LoL patch 25.13, fans can expect a clean 3-0 sweep when it faces G2.
