Gen.G’s Triumph in League of Legends
Nearly a month ago, Gen.G broke their long-standing curse in international League of Legends tournaments by claiming victory at the MSI 2024. This victory reaffirms their status as the best team in the world.
Despite dominating the LCK for several splits, exerting their dominance over T1, Gen.G had not secured an international trophy since their days as Samsung. Finally, they achieved this milestone in China, becoming the only team with a shot at the Grand Slam in 2024.
VALORANT Victory in Shanghai
In a remarkable turn of events, Gen.G also conquered the second Masters of VALORANT 2024 held in Shanghai. They faced Team Heretics in a thrilling final, coming back from a 2-1 deficit to secure the championship with an outstanding performance from t3xture.
Historic Feat in Riot Games Esports
Winning international titles in both League of Legends and VALORANT in the same year is a historic achievement that sets Gen.G apart from other organizations. While FunPlus Phoenix has also won international titles in both games, they did not achieve this feat within the same year, making Gen.G’s accomplishment truly unique.
Key Highlights
- Dual International Titles: First team to achieve this in the same year.

Pioneering Success in VALORANT for South Korea
