MVK Esports баг Play-In шатны доод хүснэгтийн тоглолтод FURIA-г 3-1 харьцаатай хожиж, Swiss шатанд шалгарах сүүлийн боломжоо хадгалж үлдлээ.
League of Legends World Championship-ийн Play-In шатны хүрээнд аравдугаар сарын 17-ны бямба гарагт MVK Esports болон FURIA багууд учраа тааран тоглолоо. MVK эхний хоёр тоглолтыг тус бүр 31 болон 27 минутад дуусгаж давуу талыг олсон ч, FURIA гурав дахь тоглолтод 36 минутын турш тэсвэрлэн тоглож цувралыг үргэлжлүүлсэн юм. Эцэст нь MVK дөрөв дэх тоглолтыг 28 минутад өндөрлөснөөр 3-1-ийн харьцаатай ялалт байгуулав.
Энэхүү ялалтын үр дүнд MVK баг аравдугаар сарын 18-ны ням гарагт Karmine Corp-той дахин тулалдахаар боллоо. Өнгөрсөн баасан гарагт болсон тоглолтод Karmine Corp 3-0 харьцаатай илүүрхэж байсан бөгөөд энэ удаагийн ялагч нь Swiss шатанд шалгарах эрхийг албан ёсоор авах юм.
Цувралын шилдэг тоглогчоор 13-8-25 гэсэн үзүүлэлттэй Ngo “Kratos” Khanh тодорсон бол багийн гишүүн Nguyen “Harky” Van Huu 22-11-24-ийн харьцаатай тоглолтыг үзүүлжээ. FURIA-гийн зүгээс Andrey “Ayu” Saraiva 18 удаа дайснаа устгасан ч багийнхаа ялалтыг баталгаажуулж чадсангүй. Шийдвэрлэх тоглолтуудад Lương Hải “Gury” Long-ын Wukong дүрээрээ багийн тулаануудыг амжилттай удирдсан нь MVK-д хожил авчрах гол түлхүүр болсон байна.
Тэмцээний нийт шагналын сан 5 сая ам.доллар бөгөөд аварга баг 1 сая ам.долларыг хүртэх юм. Swiss шатны тоглолтууд аравдугаар сарын 23-наас 31-ний хооронд Техас мужийн Аллен хотод үргэлжлэх бол хасагдах шат арваннэгдүгээр сарын 3-нд эхэлж, аваргын төлөөх тоглолт арваннэгдүгээр сарын 14-нд Нью-Йорк хотын Barclays Center-т болно.

MVK Esports turned a lower-bracket fight into one more shot at Karmine Corp, beating FURIA 3-1 in the League of Legends World Championship Play-In on Saturday, October 17. The reward is a rematch with the team that swept them 3-0 on Friday, October 16, with the winner of the final-round match claiming the last Swiss Stage place, according to reports from Field Level Media and GosuGamers.
There is no slow route back into the bracket here: MVK now have to solve Karmine Corp immediately, rather than wait for another opponent or series. The Vietnamese team already beat FURIA 3-0 in the opening round on Thursday, October 15, but this time the Brazilian side took a game before MVK shut the door.
MVK survived the FURIA fight, then got the rematch
MVK took the first two games in 31 and 27 minutes, putting FURIA under immediate pressure. FURIA answered with a 36-minute win in Game 3, extending the series, but MVK closed out Game 4 in 28 minutes to seal the 3-1 result.
The result sends MVK into Sunday’s decider against Karmine Corp after their earlier 3-0 defeat dropped them into the lower bracket. That first meeting left Karmine Corp one match from the Swiss Stage; MVK’s win over FURIA has now made them the final obstacle between the French organization and qualification. The stakes and the earlier sweep are also central to the Karmine Corp-MVK matchup.
Kratos and Harky lead the numbers
Ngo “Kratos” Khanh was named the series MVP after finishing with a 13-8-25 kill-death-assist line. Teammate Nguyen “Harky” Van Huu posted 22-11-24, while FURIA’s Andrey “Ayu” Saraiva recorded 18 kills.
Those figures came from an all-Vietnamese MVK roster that recovered after losing Game 3 and found the finish in the fourth. GosuGamers reported that jungler Lương Hải “Gury” Long’s Wukong helped MVK set up team fights in that closing game, adding a detail to a series whose final score alone makes the finish look more comfortable than the full four games were.
One Swiss Stage place remains
The final-round match on Sunday, October 18, decides which team advances to the Swiss Stage. That stage runs from October 23 to 31 in Allen, Texas; the knockout stage begins November 3, with the grand final scheduled for November 14 at Barclays Center in New York.
The tournament carries a $5 million prize pool, and the champion is set to receive $1 million. For MVK, though, the immediate task is narrower: turn the lessons of Friday’s sweep into a different result before the last Swiss Stage berth is gone.
