Gen.G’s elimination from the League of Legends<\/a> World Championship 2023 came as a shock in the quarterfinals, with Bilibili Gaming once again thwarting their hopes.<\/p>\n These two teams had previously met at the Mid-Season Invitational 2023<\/a>, with BLG winning the series 3-0.<\/p>\n At LoL Worlds 2023, Gen.G managed to put up a fight but ultimately fell with a 3-2 score.<\/p>\n Gen.G had a pattern of strong domestic showings but underwhelming international performances.<\/p>\n Despite their success in the LCK<\/a>, they faced heartbreak at international events, particularly at the hands of BLG in 2023.<\/p>\n Choi “Doran” Hyeon-joon, in particular, was devastated by the loss, especially considering the significance of the top lane in Chen “Bin” Zebin’s storyline as a player.<\/p>\n While he performed well in games 3 and 4, he couldn’t maintain that level of performance in game 5.<\/p>\n The choice of the Gnar pick was unusual for Doran, as he typically favoured champions like Aatrox, Jax, Rumble, and Renekton with high trading and carry potential.<\/p>\n Gnar was a safer, teamfight-oriented pick, which they believed would complement the team composition.<\/p>\n Doran admitted that it felt like they were less prepared than BLG, particularly in terms of drafting and overall strategy.<\/p>\n Competing at an international event posed different challenges compared to domestic competition, where adjustments could be made during the regular season.<\/p>\n When asked about whether Gen.G’s experience at Worlds would make the team stronger next year, Doran revealed that roster changes were on the horizon in November.<\/p>\n While he wasn’t sure about the specific players who would join the team, he remained confident that Gen.G would continue to be a strong team.<\/p>\n Given their international performance, it seemed logical for them to consider making changes to improve their chances in future tournaments.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, BLG will clash with fellow LPL<\/a> representative Wiebo Gaming in the semi-finals, where both teams will only need one more win to make the LoL Worlds<\/a> grand final.<\/p>\n
