AL beat CFO 3-1 to advance to the semifinals, Shanks Silas turned the tide and became the key

On July 8, the second round of the loser group of the MSI Mid-Season Invitational ushered in a focus match. The LPL representative AL team defeated the CFO team from the PCS region 3-1 and successfully advanced to the semi-finals. AL will compete with the winner between BLG and FLY in the next round for the last spot in the winner group.

In this game, AL played stably as a whole. Although there were mistakes in some situations, they were always able to make timely adjustments at critical moments, showing strong resilience and execution. Especially in the fourth game, the mid-lane Shanks performed amazingly. With precise cuts and ultimate skills, he led the team to fight key team battles continuously, and finally helped AL finish the game at 29 minutes. Shanks deservedly won the MVP of this game .

At the beginning of the game, AL selected a combination with rhythm control capabilities. The auxiliary player Kael 's Bard used multiple key ultimates to control CFO's core output, creating an excellent opportunity for the team to start a team fight. Ultimately, it helped AL take the lead and won the MVP of the first game .

In the second round, Tarzan played as Monkey King and kept the pace. He frequently invaded the jungle in the early stage and cooperated with his teammates to successfully capture people. Several small-scale team battles were overwhelmingly won. Tarzan became the best in this round with his steady operation and efficient support.

In the crucial third game, CFO fought back. The bottom lane player Doggo used Ezreal to deliver explosive damage, leading the team to gain the upper hand in the mid-to-late team battles, successfully winning back a game and ending AL 's winning streak.

However, in the fourth game, CFO failed to continue the winning streak. Although they were ahead in the early and mid-game, they were a little impatient in handling key team battles, and their defense was torn apart by Shanks many times. In the end, AL ended the game with better team coordination and team battle operations, winning the entire game.

With this victory, AL successfully entered the semi-finals of this MSI. The next opponent will be the winner between BLG and FLY on July 9. By then, AL will continue to strive for higher honors, and today's performance has also added more confidence and attention to them.
