Human predictions about the results of League of Legends competitions have come to the fore. In recent international tournaments, artificial intelligence and algorithms with advanced statistics have been the most effective in determining the final standings. This tradition continues until the next MSI 2022, which will start in just a few days. The most advanced systems are activated and the champion is practically determined before the start of the first match.
Not a single surprise
To predict the results, the AI relied on data collected during various regional championships. He then simulated the group stage and the course of each team according to different possible scenarios. The result says it all: according to the algorithm, T1 has a 46% chance of winning the new edition of the Mid Season Invitational. Its closest rivals indicate just a 19% chance of winning. The last team is the construction of the Istanbul Wildcats with less than 1% chance of winning.
With a perfect split and convincing playoffs, T1’s position comes as no surprise, Faker and his teammates are most people’s favourites. However, the difference with the other so-called main regions is quite significant, its chances of winning T1 are twice as high as their first follower. This result is still intriguing, because the difference in level between China and South Korea does not seem too great., and the results are fairly consistent with regard to the various official debates. However, this is a raw number and does not indicate exact scores for each meeting. It is possible that the victory of T1 in the program simulations will be very close to RNG.
Mixed results for G2 Esports
According to the algorithm, the place occupied by Europeans certainly makes sense. Europe will not be able to overcome the distance recreated between Asia and Asia in recent seasons, and will once again find itself in the position of the third largest region in the world. This last step on the podium is not an attacking result, but this fact does not prevent European fans from wanting to believe once again that fate is no longer one and that the LCK and LPL teams can be regularly attacked. by the LEC. Like in Fnatic 2018 or G2 2019.
It is also not excluded that the trophy goes indirectly to the PSG Talon team. The latter is the highest among teams from smaller regions. (For those who haven’t watched the League of Legends competition, the PSG-affiliated Talon Esports team playing in the Southeast Asian Championship) will likely benefit from the MSI 2021 top 4 and their correct results, with 7% chance of winning. End Worlds (not included in groups, but score 3-3). Their eventual victories are still very uncertain, but their chance percentages are probably higher than what we could have given them spontaneously.
