Going into MSI, G2 Esports were seen as a favorite not to win, but to come in second place to the Korean representatives SK Telecom T1.

In addition to rebranding, the team changed several positions in their roster: from Smittyj, Kikis, PerkZ, Jesse, and Hybrid as their qualifying roster, G2 Esports moved Kikis to top lane and added Korean players Trick and Emperor. G2 Esports rebranded from the name Gamers2 in October 2015, after qualifying for the EU LCS. ![]()
