#2 PSG.LGD
PSG.LGD roster is a very interesting one. Just like Newbee, they had unexpected success run at TI7 but unlike Newbee they have made several roster swaps.
Here is PSG.LGD lineup for this year’s TI
Wang “Ame” Chunyu
Yao “Somnus” Lu (Maybe)
Yang “Chalice” Shenyi
Xu “fy” Linsen
Yap “xNova” Jian Wei
Ame and Maybe are the only two remaining players of the last season’s LGD team. PSG.LGD brought xNova and Chalice, two very talented players but they have yet to prove themselves at TI. And then there is fy. A legendary man known as God of Rubick. He is not only a Rubick God but also a legendary and very composed captain. Even though the last season was more of a downfall for him but this season with the new team you can never guess the heights he can reach.
DPC summary of PSG.LGD
The very first roster that LGD had after TI7 did not really work out great for the team or the players. As they finished 2nd place at the PGL minor, they had to face failure after failure. After some hard time, it was pretty clear that change was needed in the roster. PSG.LGD finished 2nd last at MDL Macau and Last position at Dota Summit 8.
They recruited xNova and started the long process of rebuilding the team. After a 2nd place finish at DAC and a big win at EPICENTER, fy and team PSG.LGD was suddenly the hottest team around. After this, they even finished as the Top Chinese team on DPC standings as they end the season in 3td place and now they are suddenly one of the favorite Chinese team to enter TI.
Winning Chances
While most of the pro players and pretty much 80% of the fan base supporting Virtus.Pro this year, PSG.LGD is probably the biggest team who can stop Virtus.Pro. This is not because it's 2018, TI of even year or anything imaginary. PSG.LGD has the quality to make an unstoppable run at TI8 with fy being their captain and they being the 3rd ranked DPC team. They have beaten other top tier teams later this season and their other successful ranking in various events cemented them as the biggest hope of China this year. If they manage to keep up the tempo they have right now, they are going places and no other team can stop that from happening.
