G2 Esports vs AG.AL match analysis
G2 Esports has done what many new League of Legends esports fans likely considered impossible. Of course, this refers to proving that the LEC still has the skills to back up its talk. The most recent showing of this happened when G2 Esports won against the likes of T1, showcasing excellent strategy and mechanical skills.
Hans Sama is a strong ADC who usually goes for flexible picks, while Caps brings a wealth of experience and skill to the middle lane. BrokenBlade’s performance is usually a coin toss, but he absolutely decimated T1, and repeating that against a laner such as Flandre would set G2 up for success.

AG.AL are no slouches either. The team has powerhouse players such as Shanks, Hope, and Tarzan. All three players are strong enough to carry the team to victory, though Shanks is arguably the team’s strongest point. He can more than compete against Caps in the middle lane, though G2’s SkewMond could help turn the tide.
AG.AL’s early game is extremely strong. The team is fairly reliable when it comes to securing the first blood, so siding with it for this could be a good idea. As for the winner, G2 Esports has generally been more consistent recently. AG.AL is strong, but the team’s lack of international experience could hold it back from winning this match, sending it to a third match.
