Gen.G win MSI 2024: Recap, schedule, teams, more
Colin Young-Wolff/Riot GamesMSI 2024 took place in Chengdu, China from May 1-19. 12 teams qualified from all around the world, with the major regions (LPL, LCK, LEC, LCS) getting two slots each and four minor regions getting one slot.
LOUD, GAM, Estral, and FlyQuest were eliminated in the Play-Ins stage, with FlyQuest in particular being a surprising elimination considering they lost to a minor region team. And this comes after they broke records in the worst way in their matchup against T1.
And, though G2 looked promising after taking down Top Esports in decisive fashion, they ultimately fell to T1. Only for T1 to fall to BLG, pitting China’s #1 seed against Gen.G. And, ultimately, Gen.G came out on top.
Between Peyz setting a new kill record and players like Chovy and Kiin finally getting their chance at international recognition, it’s been a historic tournament for Gen.G. The team has been cursed internationally, and they’ve finally broken that curse.
Here’s everything you need to know about MSI 2024 from every match result, teams that participated, when each team got eliminated, and more.
