Facing off: G2 Esports vs Fnatic – Who will clinch the 2023 League of Legends LEC Season Finals title?
Prediction
The 2023 LEC season witnessed G2 Esports outclassing other teams. Their dynamic trio of Yike, Hans Sama, and Mikyx has transformed the team into a versatile force, as each member is competent with several champions.
The squad has dominated both in individual skills and macro strategy, making it a difficult team to defeat unless they make glaring blunders.
After an initial stumble, Fnatic recovered well in their 2023 LEC season, largely due to new inclusions like Oscarinin, Noah, and Trymbi. These additions have helped them excel in team fights and skirmishes, giving them a distinct team identity.
Even in Oscarinin’s absence, former top laner Wunder has seamlessly integrated into the squad at the Season Finals, amplifying their play style and unleashing their full potential.
Although Fnatic has shown commendable improvement, G2 Esports have displayed superior play in almost every aspect of the game. Fnatic will have a tough road ahead to outclass their rivals and clinch the title at Montpellier. Simply put, G2 Esports appears to be more likely to emerge victorious in this series.
