EG vs LOUD: League of Legends Worlds 2022 play-ins - Predictions, head-to-head, livestream details, and more
League of Legends Worlds 2022 play-ins have commenced, and North American seed Evil Geniuses (EG) is set to clash with Brazilian powerhouse LOUD on the second day of the international tournament (September 30).
The first day of League of Legends Worlds 2022 did not go as planned for Evil Geniuses, as they ended up losing an intense game against Fnatic.
LOUD, on the other hand, dominantly showcased what they're made of, and are currently ranked higher than the North American team. With the second day of the play-ins stage on the horizon, it'll be interesting to see if LOUD manages to triumph against Evil Geniuses.

Evil Geniuses saw minor changes to their main roster for Worlds 2022, with Attack Damage Carry (ADC) Kaori stepping in as a temporary substitute for their botlaner Danny.
Brazilian seed LOUD was founded in 2019, and joined The Campeonato Brasileiro de League of Legends (CBLOL) in October 2020.
The team consistently finished in fourth and fifth place during the 2022 competitive season. However, things took a positive turn when they managed to sweep paiN Gaming during the CBLOL 2022 Split 2 Playoffs Finals.
