Worlds 2023 LoL - Group StageWelcome to EGamersWorld.
The most important event of this autumn - Worlds 2023 - is gaining momentum in South Korea. The group stage of Worlds 2023 will feature matches involving 16 of the best teams in the world.
Among the participants of the group stage are Cloud9 and MAD Lions. They will play their debut match in the Swiss system against each other.
We will see how this even match will end and which of the teams will be in the pool of teams 1-0 after a single bo1. Also, once again we'll see which region is stronger: NA or EU?
Let's go.
Cloud9 uniforms.
Let's start the match analysis with the analysis of C9's form. In this match the team will play as favourites with a minimum margin: the odds for a C9 victory are at 1.9.
The failure at the 2022 World Championships has not affected Cloud9's desire and ability to take the lead at LCS Spring 2023. During the LCS Spring 2023 regular season, C9 took first place with a score of 14-4.
The championship playoffs were not a serious test for Cloud9. The top North American club won LCS Spring 2023 and went to MSI 2023.
The first international event ended with Cloud9 in the Top 6.
- Cloud9 lineup: Fudge, Blaber, EMENES, Berserker, Zven .
A successful half year allowed Cloud9 to leave the roster unupgraded. The decision was obviously correct, as Cloud9 were among the first to guarantee their place in the play-offs of the LCS summer split.
Having finished the group stage with a score of 13-5, sharing the top 1 with Golden Guardians. Thanks to their successful performance in the group stage C9 were able to get straight into the second round of play-offs.
The first opponent for the main stage was Evil Geniuses. "Evil Geniuses" were unable to impose competition on C9 and lost 0-3.
In the match to reach the grand finals, there was no special difference from the previous game. Cloud9, played against NRG and ran them over with a score of 3-0, without much chance for NRG.
But in the LCS Summer 2023 Grand Final, things clearly didn't go according to plan. Cloud9 met NRG again and this time they came away with a surprise: the new LCS member beat the time-tested American champion 3-1.
The most popular Cloud9 champions
The most popular champion in the TOP remains Sion (4 games, 100% wins). KSante (3 games, 3 wins), Jax (3 games, 100% wins), Fiora (3 games, 66% wins) were also taken.
Wukong (4 matches, 75% wins) appeared in the forest most often. We also took Maokai (3 matches, 100% wins), Elise (3 matches, 100% wins).
LeBlanc (2 matches, 100% wins), Jayce (2 matches, 50% wins) went to the centre line. Yone (1 match, 100% wins), Viktor (1 match, 0% wins).
From shooters we took Zeri (6 matches, 66% wins), Varus (3 matches, 66% wins). Caitlyn, Lucian and Draven were taken 2 times each: all of them have perfect winrate.

MAD Lions uniforms
We continue the match analysis with the analysis of the MAD Lions form. In this match, the Lions will play in the status of an outsider with odds to win around 1.9.
Since 2021, they have been a consistent winner of LEC splits with a slight adjustment for last season's failure. In 2023 the team took the 2nd place at LEC Winter 2023 and won LEC Spring 2023, which we would like to pay special attention to.
By the LEC Spring split, it seemed like the MAD Lions were done. "The Lions made up for the tiebreaker in the group stage and barely made it to the group stage. There with fights, sweat and blood they reached the play-offs, where in the first round in a tough Bo5 they defeated their future rival - G2 Esports, but even there the misfortunes did not end: they needed to defeat Vitality (3-1) and make Reverse Sweep against BDS in the grand final.
- MAD Lions line-up: Chasy, Elyoya, Nisqy, Carzzy, Hylissang.
The Lions have a fighting roster, no doubt about it. They have proved it many times in practice, which, however, does not always lead to high performance, first of all on the international stage, but sometimes at home as well.
For example, MSI 2023 and top 8 there, which is good in principle, but the result at LEC Summer 2023 is already sad. At the last LEC Championships MAD Lions, the reigning Spring Split champions, crashed out at the Top 7 position, which is clearly not the level.
LEC Finals 2023 MAD Lions started with a match against EXCEL. The opening match of the summer split against MAD Lions temporarily confirmed the thesis of a one-tournament team, losing to the "lions" with a score of 0-3 without a chance.
In the match before that, MAD Lions played against G2 Esports. Obviously, they lost, with a score of 1-3.
In the battle for a slot at the LEC Finals 2023 Grand Final, MAD Lions Ledge and Fnatic. The colourful game ended with the score 2-3 in favour of the Orange. Thus MAD Lions qualified for Worlds 2023 on the third quota from Europe.
The most popular MAD Lions champions
Fiora (2 matches, 100% wins) and KSante (2 matches, 50% wins) appeared in the top of MAD Lions most often. Renekton (1 game, 100% wins) and Gnar (1 game and that defeat) were also taken.
Sejuani (3 matches, 66% wins) is popular in the forest. Next is Wukong with 2 appearances and 50% wins, and there was also Maokai who won his only match.
On the centre line, Viktor (1-1) and Akali (1-1) have 2 matches each. Azir and Sylas won their matches.
Among shooters Varus appeared most often (3 matches, 66% of wins). Lucian was picked 2 times (1-1) and Sivir was picked once more (1-0).
Thresh (1-1), Lulu (1-1) were picked more often than others. Nami and Ashe, who appeared 1 time each, won their matches.
History of head-to-head meetings
The last time the teams played a face-to-face meeting was back in 2021, twice at MSI. They won a game each.
Predicted result of Cloud9 vs MAD Lions at Worlds 2023
I'm sure this match will be one of the closest fights in the first stage of Worlds 2023. This is indicated by the odds, which is actually quite logical.
Cloud9 and MAD Lions are close regions in terms of level of play and mentality and should feel each other well. If we talk about the winner, I will choose MAD Lions. Europe, represented by BDS, has already proved itself at this tournament. I'm sure the other representatives of the "Old World" will also show their game.
The result: victory MAD Lions.
