In a season filled with drama and challenges, GAM Esports has firmly established its dominance at VCS Summer 2024. Facing formidable opponents and overcoming numerous trials, the “Black and Gold” team not only showcased exceptional skill but also created an unforgettable mark in the history of the Vietnamese League of Legends. GAM’s convincing victory not only secured a prestigious championship but also paved the way for the team to enter the 2024 World Championship as the pride of the VCS region.
The Epic Clash Between GAM and VKE at the VCS Summer 2024 Finals
Right from the first game, skirmishes erupted across the map with both teams exchanging blows. However, by the 6th minute, GAM Esports demonstrated superior experience and coordination among their players. The “War God” Kiaya secured significant advantages for GAM, allowing them to snowball with an overwhelming lead. With both of GAM’s ADCs and Levi on Zyra extremely fed, VKE struggled to mount a comeback and quickly succumbed in the first game. GAM surged ahead 1-0 in the decisive series!
VKE put forth all their efforts to shift the momentum in game 2, but the brilliance of Levi and the impressive performance of Elio on Bard dominated the match. GAM continuously won team fights, securing multiple kills for their mid-jungle duo. This overwhelming pressure gradually suffocated their opponents, leaving GAM just one win away from their 11th VCS championship!
In the final game, VKE attempted to implement a “dragon stacking” strategy along with clever lane rotations to counter GAM. However, their lineup couldn’t withstand the relentless aggression and lightning-fast pace of their adversaries. Consecutive crushing team fights forced VKE to retreat, and once again, GAM proved why they remain the undisputed kings of VCS.
After a 3-0 victory over VKE, GAM Esports hoisted the VCS trophy for the 11th time, reaffirming their dominant position at the pinnacle of the league. The team showed fans and viewers alike their unmatched power, as they dismantled every challenger who dared to contest their throne.
