We open the breakdown of the G2 Esports vs paiN Gaming match with an analysis of G2 Esports' match form. In this match they will play as clear favourites with odds to win at around 1.1.
At the beginning of last season "Samurai" reached the capital of Great Britain to participate in MSI 2023 by winning the LEC Winter draw. Then G2 made it to the grand finals without much trouble, also beating MAD Lions quite easily
At LEC Spring 2023, G2 Esports played worse. They entered the play-offs of the tournament from the second match of their group, making it to the bottom of the play-offs. While there, they played against the Lions again, but were unable to repeat the success of the LEC Spring 2023: G2 Esports dropped out of the LEC Spring 2023 playoffs, but made it to the Mid-Season Invitational 2023.
- G2 Esports roster: BrokenBlade, Yike, Caps, Hans Sama, Mikyx.
Play-In for G2 Esports is successful and even easier than BLG's. G2 Esports didn't feel LOUD and easily shut down PSG Talon, beating both clubs 2-0.
Things were no longer as rosy in the Bracket Stage. In the first round, G2 Esports played Gen.G, probably the main contender for the championship title, and managed to take a card from them, which in the realities of today's competitive scene is more than good.
In the bottom set, G2 Esports met their main rival, MAD Lions. The European derby on the international stage ended with a confident victory for G2, confirming them as the best team in the LEC.
At the end of the only international event so far, G2 Esports finished in the top 6. The result is a good one.
Before the LEC Finals, the Samurai took another trophy to their headquarters. It was the trophy for the victory at LEC Summer 2023, where G2 easily defeated EXCEL in the Grand Final.
In the first round of LEC Finals 2023, G2 Esports played against Team BDS. The French gave a fight, but failed to pull more than 1 map.
G2 Esports had no problems first with MAD Lions to advance to the grand finals of LEC Finals 2023, and then in the finals they defeated Fnatic.
In the first match on the main stage of the year, G2 Esports played against Dplus. Being an outsider, the team managed to beat the titular Koreans, all thanks to Hans Sama's crowning Draven. Then they managed to beat not just anyone, but WBG, who subsequently took the top 2.
And then came the miscues, and quite serious ones at that. First they lost to Gen 0-2, then to Ledge or NRG 0-2 (which was a shocker), and finally they dropped out of Worlds 2023 after losing to Bibili Gaming.
G2 Esports will start their journey to LEC Winter 2024 with a match against BDS, one of G2's main rivals on their way to their championship. Expect a solid performance from G2. Next up will be a match against Karmine Corp, where it should be easier than the game against BDS. In fact it was, but the match with Rogue was probably the first sensation of last week, because G2 Ledgeili. Well, that's what a Bo1 is to a Bo1.
During the regular season, LEC Winter 2024 demonstrated a standard game for themselves. G2 Esports won 7 out of 9 matches, sharing the top 1 of the table with BDS.
In the Long Corner play-offs LEC Winter 2024, G2 Esports easily defeated GiantX 2-0. Next, G2 Esports faced Fnatic in the quarter-finals, where the Orange looked good: they were able to pick up a map, but it didn't affect the outcome of the match. Next, G2 Esports met BDS in a match to advance to the grand finals and swatted the Frenchmen 3-0 without a hitch. Almost the same fate awaited MAD Lions KOI in the grand finals, with only one card difference.
G2 Esports attended the Mid-Season Invitational 2024 and showed a very solid result there. They managed to reach the top 4, which is a pretty high result for a team from LEC.
Before the Esports World Cup 2024, G2 Esports guaranteed themselves a place in the play-offs of LEC Summer 2024. At the EWC 2024 itself, G2 Esports Long Sogpeg with a win over FlyQuest, but then Ledgeili TES in advancing to the grand finals.
The LEC Summer 2024 Playoffs started with a pretty solid 2-0 win over Karmine Corp. Next, an equally easy win over BDS and as a result, they made it to the top 3. In the match to reach the grand final of the upper grid of LEC Summer 2024, G2 Esports played against Fnatic, where they lost with a score of 2-3. In the lower grid match, they defeated BDS 3-2 and went on to become LEC Summer 2024 champions by defeating Fnatic in the final.
LEC Season Finals 2024 Long Long started with an unexpected defeat to MAD Lions KOI (2-3). However, that didn't stop G2 from comingback through the bottom set, outplaying all of their opponents and eventually becoming the champions of LEC Season Finals 2024.

Form paiN Gaming
We continue the analysis of the match paiN - G2 with the analysis of the playing form of the club from Brazil. In this match paiN will play as an outsider with odds to win around 4.8.
paiN Gaming is an experienced team, which is not the first year playing in Brazil. They have been on the professional scene since 2012, which some representatives of top regions like LPL, LCK or LEC cannot boast. However, the performance has almost always been very questionable.
The first time the team made it to the Worlds in 2015 and finished in the top 13, failing to make it out of the group stage. Then there were futile attempts to become the best team in Brazil, but always fell just short. On average, they finished in the top 3, often reaching the final.
A string of bad luck was overcome in 2021 with a passage to the MSI. However, the club finished in the top 9, which is hard to call a good result.
- Composition of paiN Gaming: Wizer, Cariok, dyNquedo, TitaN, Kuri.
The 2024 season was a turning point in the history of paiN. First the team took the top 2 at CBLOL Split 1, Ledgeiv in the grand final LOUD with 2-3, but in the summer split, i.e. CBLOL Split 2, the club snatched victory from Keyd Stars, thus becoming the best team in Brazil and going to Worlds 2024.
On the Swiss Stage, paiN qualified for the Swiss Stage thanks to a successful Play-In. For this they had to beat Vikings Esports and Rainbow7 in the lower grid.
Champions paiN Gaming
KSante (6 matches, 33% wins), Gwen (5 games, 0% wins), Jax (2 matches, 100% wins) are taken to the top more often than others.
Jungle takes Vi (3 matches, 0% wins), Maokai (2 matches, 100% wins), Lee Sin (1 match, 0% wins), Wukong (1 match, 0% wins).
The centre line is occupied by Kassadin (3 matches, 100% wins), Akali (2 matches, 0% wins), Syndra (2 games, 50% wins).
On the shooters are Zeri (5 games, 40% wins), Sivir (3 games, 33% wins), Lucian (2 matches, 50% wins).
Peaking Zeri and Sivir, without fail Yuumi is also selected. Magical Cat has appeared in spades 8 times and has a 37% win rate.
