Together with our betting tip we will try to find out which of the pair Gen.G - Anyone's Legend will be stronger and will make it to the top 3 of the tournament.
Let's go.
How the bookies view it: Gen.G favourite
Before the Long Shot of Gen.G vs AL at the Mid-Season Invitational 2025, let's see which of the pair is the favourite. According to bookmakers, Gen.G has more chances to win.
On the victory of LCK residents bookmakers give odds in the region of 1.4. In a match against AL this is a very serious indicator.
Gen.G Gaming form. What result can be expected from Gen.G
Let's open a full betting tip for the match Gen.G - AL with a breakdown of the favourite's playing form.
In 2023, Gen.G won LCK Spring 2023, leaving no chance to T1 in the grand final. A little less fortunate at MSI 2023, where Bilibili Gaming sensationally kept the Korean champions out of the final.
- Gen.G line-up: Kiin, Canyon, Chovy, Ruler, Duno.
At LCK Summer 2023, Gen.G made it to the play-offs without much trouble. During the group stage, the titular Koreans gave up only 2 series, eventually finishing in 2nd place in the group stage table with a score of 16-2.
In their first play-offs match for themselves, Gen.G crushed HLE. HLE 3-0 and now Gen.G are ready to advance to the league finals for the second consecutive time.
The Grand Final is a rematch of the playoffs. Last round Gen.G beat T1 3-2 in a very tough series and I think the final will be the same.
And in the grand finals, they did it too. And it was even easier than in the match to get here: Gen.G became the LCK Summer Split champion by beating T1 3-1.
Worlds 2023 Gen.G started off with a solid win over Gam Esports. It was fast and painful for Gam with 22 minutes and only 5 kills for the Vietnamese.
In a 2-0 basket match, Gen.G played against their counterparts, and by extension, bitter rivals T1. The South Korean derby, like the last 4, ended in favour of Gen.G, as Chovy and his Akali left T1 with nothing to lose.
Gen.G went into the Worlds 2023 play-offs with a score of 3-0. In their final group stage match, they played against G2 Esports and, expectedly easily, ran over the Europeans 2-0.
Being one of the favourites for Worlds 2023, Gen.G couldn't handle the burden of responsibility and lost in the first round of play-offs, Ledgeiv BLG.
In the first match at LCK Spring 2024, Gen.G will be tested against T1. I'm sure the reigning LCK champions will be proud to pass it, as Gen.G are historically good at home against the Worlds 2023 champions. Following that, Gen.G will play Nongshim RedForce, where they should outplay their counterparts with unenviable ease.
After winning the LCK Spring 2024, Gen.G attended their first international tournament of the season - the Mid-Season Invitational 2024 - where they were crowned champions.
Gen.G attended the Esports World Cup 2024 as MSI 2024 champions, where they lost in their first match, finishing in the top 8. At LCK Summer 2024, the team knows no equal and guaranteed themselves an early exit to the play-offs by going there on a 12-0 score.
Gen.G too confidently advanced to the LCK Summer 2024 playoffs, finishing the regular season at 17-1. They immediately advanced to the second round of the play-offs, after which they chose DPlus KIA over T1 as their opponent. In the opening match, Gen.G took down their vis-a-vis in class: 3-0 and an easy passage to the next stage. In the LCK Summer 2024 play-offs, Gen.G played with class, but lost to Hanwha Life Esports 2-3 in the grand finals.
Worlds 2024 Team Long Sogpeg started with a win over WBG in the first round of the Swiss Stage. Next up was another win over LPL residents, this time Top Esports and a 2-0 hammering. LoL World Championship 2024 qualified for the play-offs thanks to a solid 2-0 win over HLE in the basket with a similar scoreline in the match.
In the debut match of the LoL Worlds 2024 play-offs, Gen.G played against FlyQuest. What was supposed to end with an uncontested victory of the top Korean team turned into a full-fledged Bo5, where Gen.G risked to lose to the Americans, but managed to finish with a score of 3-2. Next was T1, where Gen.G Ledge were beaten 1-3 and left the tournament at the TOP-4 stage.
The 2025 season started with an appearance at LCK Cup 2025 in the Elder Group, where they played a very tough Long Corner, playing the group with a score of 3-2. Thanks to the revamped LCK format, this led directly to the semi-final play-offs. There they met Hanwha Life Esports and, being the favourites, lost 2-3. In the match of the lower net with great difficulty managed to beat Nongshim RedForce with a minimum advantage of 3-2. But in the next match, against DPlus KIA, Gen.G showed what is called class, closing their visions with a score of 3-0, without a chance. In the grand-final Gen.G again played against HLE and again Ledgeili in a full-fledged bo5, taking the top 2 of LCK Cup 2025.
On the Road to MSI 2025, Gen.G came through with flying colours. They did not lose a single series in the regular season, finishing 18-0. After such a great performance, Gen.G made it to the Road to MSI 2025 top set match where they outscored HLE 3-2, advancing to the MSI 2025.
Mid-Season Invitational 2025 Knockout Stage Gen.G Long Co-headlined with a solid 3-1 win over G2 Esports.

Anyone's Legend form. What result can be expected from AL.
We continue our prediction tip with the analysis of Anyone's Legend form. The odds for the LPL Split 2 champions to win are at around 2.5.
Anyone`s Legend made a surprise appearance at LPL Summer 2024, not least because of the modified format of the competition. LPL Summer 2024 started with the group stage in Basket D, where they finished top 1. Later, at the Rumble Stage LPL Summer 2024 AL finished Top 6 with a score of 3-5, which gave them the opportunity to go straight through to the second round of the main stage. After making it to the LPL Summer 2024 play-offs, AL made it to the second round, but then Ledgeyli played against TES, thus finishing LPL Summer 2024 in the Top 6.
- Anyone`s Legend line-up: Ale, Croco, Shanks, Hope, Kael.
Season 2025 for Anyone`s Legend, as for most teams, Long Sogpegovali with the group stage of LPL Split 1, winning it. Next up was a solid performance in the play-offs until the grand finals, where Ledgeili TES missed out on First Stand 2025.
At LPL 2025, Split 2 won Group B before finishing top 2 at the Rumble Stage, guaranteeing entry into the play-offs. In the opening game of the AL playoffs, they beat Team WE 3-0. Next up was another solid game against Weibo, where AL won 3-1. In the match for the top 3, they defeated 2024 vice-champions BLG by a score of 3-2. In the grand finals they again defeated Bilibili Gaming, but even more confidently than the match before - 3-1.
After taking first place at LPL Split 2, Anyone's Legend Long Competed in the Mid-Season Invitational 2025 Knockout Stage. AL defeated FlyQuest 3-1 in the first round.

Recent head to head: First meeting
The teams have not played each other in official matches before. This will be the debut game between AL - Gen.G on the international stage of League of Legends.
Players to watch: Ruler and Tarzan
In this match I will be watching Ruler and Tarzan. ADC Gen.G and Anyone's Legend forester are showing a very good game and I'm sure they will shine in this confrontation. However, considering the level of Gen.G and Anyone's Legend - I'm sure it will be a top match.
Predicted result of the match Gen.G - Al Esports at MSI 2025
In this match my bet is on Gen.G. However, I am sure that one of the best teams in the world (and the best LCK team of the last seasons) will have difficulties against LPL Split 2 champions, so I expect a close game and a score of 3-2.
Prediction tip: Gen.G win 3-2.
