Talent Gaming: Campaign of the champions in King Pro League Summer 2023
The group stage was played in three phases. Wolves topped the table after the 3rd phase and went to the upper-bracket semifinals. Talent Gaming, Dragon Ranger Gaming, and eStar Pro were the rest three teams in the bracket. However, Talent faced off with Dragon Ranger Gaming in their first playoff match where the team destroyed the opponent by 4-0 and moved to the upper-bracket final. Later, Wolves stood up in the round but couldn’t hold much longer as the champion team took the round away by 4-1.
However, the Wolves went to the lower-bracket final and picked up a win against KuaiShow Gaming to face Talent in the grand finals again. The match could be a story of sweet revenge by the defending champion. But Talent was too fierce to be stopped and despite Wolve’s attempt to fight back, the team picked up a win by making the scoreline 4-2. Thus, Talent Gaming becomes the crowned champion of the King Pro League Summer 2023.
