After an exhilating five-game series in Busan, Royal Never Give Up won the 2022 League of Legends Mid-Season Invitational after clawing their way to victory against T1. Both teams had to break out every single trick in their playbook to win the tournament, with each squad striking back from game one onward.
RNG and T1 have gone through significantly different roads to the finals, with the LPL champions crushing the competition with a perfect group stage and leading all teams in wins in the rumble stage. Meanwhile, T1 dominated their respective group, but stumbled three times against Evil Geniuses, RNG, and G2 Esports, causing some fans to question their true power.
