The showdown between China and Latin America should show us all the ins and outs of international LoL and we're looking forward to it. That's why the form of the playing teams has been thoroughly researched: Team replays, home league results and picks preferences have been analyzed.
We're ready to tell you how the opening game of the biggest international tournament of the spring will end, and which bet will be the best. Go for it.
Form Bilibili Gaming
Let's start analyzing the form of Bilibili Gaming. The representative of the Chinese LPL will play in this match in the status of favorites, as confirmed by the bookmakers.
However, even without their involvement, it is clear that Bilibili Gaming will claim victory in this match in particular and in Play-In MSI 2023 in general.
The point here is that Bilibili Gaming is a resident of the Chinese LPL, which is one of the 4 Major regions of the professional League of Legends, and teams from there often show the highest level of play. That was the case, for instance, last year when Royal Never Give Up won MSI 2022.
Returning directly to Bilibili Gaming, it should be said that just having a place in the LPL does not mean winning for free. However, Bilibili are good not only because they belong to one of the top regions but also because of their performance during the season.
Bilibili Gaming started the year 2023 in good health with a performance at the local event Weibo Cup 2022 that was a kind of preparation for the LPL Spring 2023. At Weibo Cup 2022 BBG finished in the Top 2, in the Grand Final of Ledge and Weibo Gaming.
A more serious test awaited Bilibili Gaming already at LPL Spring 2023. BBG showed their best side in the Top League Spring Split, all thanks to their top roster and solid play.
- Bilibili Gaming: Bin, XUN, Yagao, Elk, ON.
The success of BBG should be associated with the names of Bin and Yagao, but to be fair, each of them distinguished themselves during the spring split. It was team-wide synergy that first brought BBG to the tournament's play-offs and then to the grand final.
In the final game Bilibili could not resist, but showed a very decent performance. In the game against JD Gaming, Bilibili Gaming picked up 1 card, which is already a result.
The most popular Bilibili Gaming champions

If you are willing to believe in the level of play of Bilibili Gaming and the status of the Chinese teams, bet on Bilibili Gaming to win.

Rainbow7 uniforms
We continue with the analysis of the Rainbow7 formation. In this match, the representatives of Latin America will play in the second position, i.e. we will face the outsiders of the game.
We should not be surprised by such a state of affairs, because in the professional League of Legends at this level the advantage of representatives of the top regions against a team from the Minor league remains.
Rainbow7 are just a resident of the Minor region, namely Latin America. This does not mean that they are doomed to defeat, but their chances are frankly small, especially Bilibili Gaming have gained a lot since the 2022 season.
- The Rainbow7 line-up: Bong, Oddie, Mireu, Ceo, Lyonz .
The Rainbow7 roster was completed before the Long Saugus season 2023. The newcomers are legionaries Bong, formerly of NASR eSports, Mireu, formerly of Hanwha Life Esports and T1 Challengers, and the Argentine Lyonz of Leviatan.
The re-match did the trick, as Rainbow7 managed to become the top LLA Opening 2023 team, although they went 4-3 in the group stage.
The Latin American League play-offs, like the group stage, went hard. Of the 4 matches played, the R7s played three full-bo5s and only managed to close out the bottom net final with a 3-1 score.
Rainbow7's most popular champions
- Top Line: Renekton (5 matches, 40% wins).
- Jungle: Sejuani (6 matches, 83% wins).
- Centre line: Gragas (5 matches, 60% wins).
- Shooter: Zeri (7 games, 42% wins).
- Support: Nautilus (5 games, 60% wins).
If you are willing to take the risk of catching high odds, pick Rainbow7 as the winner of the match.
Since the teams have not previously played in official matches - let's move on to our conclusion.
Predicted Result of the Bilibili Gaming vs Rainbow7
The match between BBG and Rainbow7 should be one of the most predictable in the first round of the Play-In Mid-Season Invitational 2023. Bilibili look very weighty in the 2023 season, as they showed during LPL Spring 2023, where they handled teams of the RNG and EDG level, and therefore will have no problem closing the match against Rainbow7.
Rainbow7 have no experience of playing against top teams in tournaments of the MSI 2023 level, so it will be difficult for them to oppose a more titled opponent.
The result: a 2-0 win for Bilibili Gaming.
