Road to Finals: Worlds 2023 Round 4 Draw - Analysis

Wrapping up an exciting Round 3 of the Swiss Stage, Worlds 2023 has evolved into a new level of high-stakes esports action. This year's roster has been so jampacked with one name bigger than the other - that with every subsequent round, the odds for each team are getting dauntingly tougher. 

With the conclusion of Round 3, two teams have remained undefeated through the Swiss stage; JDG and GenG have now advanced to the Knockout Stage. Meanwhile, TL and BDS will be biting the dust - as with three back-to-back defeats, they have been eliminated from the event. As a result, 12 teams are now left to collide in the highly anticipated Round 4. 

Furthermore, the Round 4 Draw show at the end of Round 3 kicked up a storm, as everyone's favorite ref stirred the pot with exhilarating Round 4 matchups. The LCS vs LEC rivalry is in full swing as the draws unveiled a shocking two matchups between the adversaries. Let's have a look at all the encounters fixed for this gut-wrenching round.

Swiss Stage - Round 4 Draw:

The 1-2 Pool:

This is the Pool harboring teams with one win and two losses. These are the teams that have survived the Round 3 eliminations and now face a do-or-die situation in Round 4. The matchups fixed for this pool are as below:

1. Cloud9 vs Fnatic 
2. DPlus Kia vs Gam Esports 
3. Mad Lions vs Weibo Gaming 

The highlight of this pool being the iconic matchup between C9 and Fnatic, which is reminiscent of the 2018 Worlds Semi-final. Not to mention the hype of LCS vs LEC rivalry reaching its peak. On the other hand, the second LEC team got the shorter end of the stick - matched up with the former world champion TheShy's team, Weibo Gaming.

The 2-1 Pool:

This Pool is where things start to heat up. With monumental names like T1 and G2 dueling in this Pool, it is hard to anticipate the outcomes. Teams with 2 wins and 1 loss will be locking horns here. With the three winners set to advance to Knockouts, the stakes are quite high. The teams clashing in this pool are as below:

1. KT Rolster vs LNG Esports
2. T1 vs Bilibili Gaming 
3. NRG vs G2 Esports 

Seems like LEC might make it to Quarter-finals afterall, as G2 gets a break from eastern monsters. Meanwhile, the other two matchups will embody pure LCK vs LPL action. While the winners of this pool will directly qualify to Knockouts, the losers will still have another chance to make it out in the subsequent Round 5.
