It should be a one-sided affair when Fnatic and Gen.G clash in the first round of the Mid-Season Invitational 2024 bracket stage on Wednesday, May 8. According to the odds, Gen.G are given a 99% implied probability of winning the series, which is an absurd number for a match between two teams from major regions.
Gen.G have made a strong case for themselves as one of the world’s best LoL esports teams this split. They dominated domestically with a 17-1 regular season record, adding a fairly smooth run to the organisation’s fourth consecutive LCK trophy.
Fnatic spent another split in G2 Esports’ shadow, keeping hold of their tag as Europe’s no.2 team. However, they have done well in the first stage of MSI 2024 and nearly beat Top Esports, proving they can hang with the big dogs.
Fnatic nearly beating Top Esports in part had to do with Top Esports not respecting Fnatic’s strong picks. Still, Marek “Humanoid” Brázda and co. showed some good things, namely the strong mid-jungle pairing and their willingness to create chaos with constant fighting. The latter could catch Gen.G off guard.
By all metrics, Gen.G are the superior team, but -10000 is an absurd price. Even though Gen.G would have to produce a blunder of the season to lose a best-of-three series, Fnatic are more than capable of winning a map. At +190 with BetOnline, this is a bet that’s hard to pass on.
