The team had won three games in convincing fashion over the last three days, but those wins were erased prior to today\u2019s competition after Riot Games discovered a \u201cdiscrepancy in latency\u201d during RNG\u2019s three victories. RNG have been participating in MSI 2022 remotely due to \u201cpandemic-related travel restrictions and constraints,\u201d according to Riot.\u00a0\u00a0 Related: RNG to replay 3 matches at MSI 2022 due to ping discrepancies, Riot makes configuration changes to improve latency Ahead of today\u2019s games, RNG were placed back at the starting block, as their record was wiped clean and reset to 0-0. With this initial win over Istanbul Wildcats, though, the LPL champions are back on the board.\u00a0 Today\u2019s victory over Istanbul was facilitated mainly through AD carry GALA, who was a major factor in RNG\u2019s three now-void wins. In today\u2019s game, GALA earned three kills in the first six minutes of the game and was off to the races from there. The MSI 2021 MVP wound up with an impressive final scoreline of 8\/3\/12 in today\u2019s game. Additionally, the 40 combined kills by both teams were the most of any game at MSI thus far, according to League stats site Games of Legends.\u00a0 Because the rest of the three teams in Group B were affected by the wiping of RNG\u2019s record, RED Canids, Istanbul Wildcats, and PSG Talon all entered into the day in a three-way tie for first with even records of 1-1, seeing their losses to the Chinese representatives removed altogether. The entire group will play the remainder of its regularly scheduled games today.\u00a0 RNG will play two more games today against PSG and RED Canids. The make-up games that were erased from the first round robin will all be replayed tomorrow following the scheduled games between teams from Group C. By then, RNG will have caught up to where they were prior to the ping-related snafu.\u00a0 Update May 13 6:32am CT:\u00a0This article originally said RNG will play two make-up games tomorrow and one on Sunday. An updated version of the MSI schedule shows that RNG will play all three of those games tomorrow.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/13023644\/RNG-MSI-2022.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/592925"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1865"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=592925"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/592925\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":592976,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/592925\/revisions\/592976"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/592926"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=592925"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=592925"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=592925"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=592925"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=592925"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=592925"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=592925"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
