Bilibili Gaming vs Golden Guardians
BLG had an explosive start in the series. They secured the first game to their name thanks to some impressive performances by Bin’s Gnar and Yagao’s Ahri. But GG bounced back in the next game from a deficit and won to equalize the series.
Unfortunately, GG was not able to perform their magic in the final game as BLG completely crushed their defensive attempts. The LPL second seed closed the game in 30 minutes and obtained a 2-1 series victory.

G2 Esports vs PSG Talon
It seemed as if G2 had prepared for PSG extensively as they were able to secure a 2-0 victory over the PCS representatives. While the first game looked quite close, G2 was able to win it thanks to the Caps’ awesome Gragas game. The second game was a one-sided show as G2 took down PSG despite the heroics shown by their ADC Wako.
Both Bilibili Gaming and G2 Esports have made it to the Bracket Stage of the Mid-Season Invitational 2023. They are now set to compete against the directly qualified teams on the main stage.
The defeated teams will now have to compete in the Lower Bracket of the Play-In Stage. Out of all of them, only one team will be able to qualify for the Bracket Stage.
