It has been widely known that SKT has not performed well in the past few MSI games. What's more is that SKT lost to IG and G2 in a row. However, it is very possible for SKT to win the MSI since Korean players in IG who are Rookie and Theshy. It is expected that Rookie and TheShy as patriots will intentionally feed in the game and let SKT win the championship.

On the other hand, G2 may be a huge stumbling block to SKT because G2 is a pure European team. One possible assumption that can be made is that SKT which often dominates in the bigger stage and has more experience than G2, might be able to overwhelm G2.
