LoL Worlds 2021: A quick look at all the quarter-final matches

The group stage is over! It took a total of six tiebreaker matches in the four groups to determine each of the eight teams that would advance to the knockout stage as first and second places. Only group B was so obvious that after normal duels, no additional game was needed to locate . However, groups A and D owned it all and demanded two or even three additional encounters.

After all the matches in the group stage, Monday evening’s quarter-final draw followed, with the winner of one group battling the second-placed team from another group. Only the advanced team is excluded from its group as a competitor.

Before we get to the tied pairs, let’s look again at the results of the four groups A to D and the teams that advanced.

Group winners

• Group A: DWG KIA (LCK #1)
• Group B: T1 (LCK #3)
• Group C: Royal Never Give Up (LPL #3)
• Fourth Group: Gen.G Sports (LCK #2).

the second group:

• Group A: Cloud9 (LCS – Play-Ins)
• Group B: EDward Gaming (LPL #1)
• Gruppe C: Hanwha Life Esports (LCK – Play-Ins)
• Fourth Group: MAD Lions (LEC #1)

All pairs in the quarter-finals

After the duo tied on Monday evening, the results of the following tree appear for the knockout stage of the 2021 World Championships:

The result of the lottery: It’s not an easy game for anyone! But perhaps this is not expected in the group of the eight best teams in the world at the moment. But it will also be especially difficult for the western teams from North America (Cloud9) and Europe (MAD Lions), who were in the top 5 against Gen.G (LCK #2) or even the reigning world champions and so on. So far, the only one among the undefeated DWG KIA team in the 2021 World Championships will have to compete.

The following teams will meet in the other two matches: Royal Never Give Up and EDward Gaming will meet in the top half of the tournament tree in an LPL indoor duel. It follows that at least one Chinese team will also play in the semi-finals. Last but not least, there is an internal match with Korea in the quarter-finals. T1 (LCK #3) meets Hanwha Life Esports, who “only” reached the tournament via overtime play.
