Chinese esports team Royal Never Give Up won every game in the group stage of the 2022 League of Legends Mid-Season Invitational<\/a>, sealing a spot in the rumble stage.<\/p>\n

The LPL representatives’ first three victories were wiped due to ping discrepancy. Recall that RNG is the only team not at the LAN event due to COVID-19 travel restrictions in their home country.<\/p>\n

To maintain competitive integrity, Riot Games cleared the slate and organized a replay. However, the Chinese team was not fazed as they proved their victories were not flukes or a result of an unfair advantage.<\/p>\n

Although RNG has shown its dominance on the international stage, they were not exactly in top form during the LPL regular season. However, a 3-2 win against Top Esports guaranteed them a ticket to the MSI.<\/p>\n

RNG breezed through their opponents in the group stage, except PSG Talon, who was considered their toughest opponents. Although more resistance was shown by Talon, they were still unable to win a game against the streaking LPL team.<\/p>\n

In reality, RNG won nine consecutive matches in the group stage but only three were recognized by the tournament organizers. They will be looking to continue that form in the rumble stage scheduled to commence on May 20.<\/p>\n

Schedule relased for MSI rumble stage<\/h2>\n
