among 6 teams rumble sceneSomeone who looks like an unexpected guest. The Vietnamese were really unexpected from Saigon Buffalo. For one thing, we didn’t really know where the region stood after a two-year hiatus. On paper, we imagine that the Japanese DFM have managed to get out of this second phase. On the other hand, let us emphasize once again that the Buffaloes did not even crown the champions of Vietnam. GAM Esports should have been at MSI, but entering another international tournament, VCS sent their runners in place.
But despite this incredible journey, Vietnamese They are not there to make up the numbers. Frankly, they mostly lost (1 win for 7 losses). But beyond the result, they energize the competition with their style of play. aggressive And Explosive. Other teams push their limits and show that in certain series a small zone can arouse suspicion in the main zone. It’s also worth noting that their only victory against PSG Talon could be (currently) very important in the race. knockout stage. The buffaloes did not come in vain, and their situation is very interesting.
A team that fights with the means at hand
Overall, the Vietnamese lag behind other Rumble Stage teams. It must be said that the players of the team will explore the international scene for the first time. In that regard, it’s hard to really compete with players like the one below. fake, Hats Or xiaohu. But the Vietnamese play their luck thoroughly and try to win with their weapons. Thus, we can accommodate always very aggressive styles of play and regularly offer us advantages at the start of the game. They have been seen to be able to fight effectively with the team against PSG Talon and even RNG. It’s not always very clean, but when you play in front, everyone follows convincingly. The Vietnamese have no doubts and their team can be a source of inspiration for everyone.
The primary concern of buffaloes is st in the middle of the game The team often seems a bit lost. Whether back or forward, players struggle and lose heavily to poorly executed turnovers or macro-game actions by the opponent. We have also regularly seen players show impatience. Ideal when aggressiveness is under control. But the Vietnamese, faithful ReputationSometimes they are too greedy. Things can’t calm down and Strength totally. Race against average opponents. But it’s no longer against the top teams at MSI.
Vietnam regains its status as a developing region
MSI will remain a satisfactory competitor in any case Vietnamese. After a long break and even posting their number 2, the region showed some support. long thought developing region He will be able to regain his status in League of Legends. The gap still exists in large areas, but it also exists in Vietnam and other so-called other countries. between small regions.
Besides the level of play, Vietnam is also characterized by a clearly defined style of play. at MSI, shogunis ADC told us that the game is generally slow. He got used to playing faster and harder, both winning and losing. This Play a game Very different between VCS and MSI teams. It’s hard for inexperienced players like him to get used to. But it proves that Vietnam can create a complete and complex ecosystem. The same cannot be said for some other small regions…
