They won the 2022 PCS Spring Split after besting CTBC Flying Oyster in a best-of-five final. Having qualified for the <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/league-of-legends\/mid-season-invitational\/\" title=\"MSI betting\">Mid-Season Invitational<\/a>, they failed to make it past the Rumble Stage, finishing in fifth place with a 3-7 record.<\/p>\n<p>PSG Talon&#8217;s Summer Split started out well, as they led the group stage standings with a 14-4 record. In similar fashion to the Spring Split, they were sent to the lower bracket after being dealt a revenge defeat by the Flying Oyster, who went on to win the title.<\/p>\n<p>Prior to this season, PSG Talon had never missed the <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/league-of-legends\/worlds\/\" title=\"LoL Worlds betting\">League of Legends World Championship<\/a>. However, they failed to make it to the 2022 Worlds, having suffered a defeat at the hands of Beyond Gaming in the PCS Summer Playoffs.<\/p>\n<p>The Chief Executive Officer and co-founder of PSG Talon, Sean Zhang, shared his appreciation of the departing players in a video clip that was posted on the organization\u2019s Twitter page.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMassive thank you to our existing squad. All those boys have put in an amazing amount of work into 2022,&#8221; Zhang said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Many of them, partially Hanabi, Unified, and Kaiwing, who have been with us from the very early days at Talon, even before we were PSG Talon.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe want to wish those boys a massive thank you for all their effort, dedication, and work they have put in.
