The jungler for FlyQuest, Kacper "Inspired" Słoma, shared his thoughts on the upcoming clash with the Chinese team Bilibili Gaming at MSI 2025. He noted that while the team is geared up for victory, expectations remain high, and the competition is fierce. In the interview, Inspired discussed FlyQuest's current preparation and shared numerous interesting insights about their opponents and their strategy for the tournament.

Although FlyQuest is performing confidently on the international stage, they face tough competition and high pressure. This year, they are up against particularly challenging trials, including a match against Bilibili Gaming, who previously weren't highly ranked but are now clearly showcasing a high level of play at MSI 2025.

FlyQuest's Success Story and New Challenge

FlyQuest rightfully made it to MSI 2025, but with each match, expectations for the team only grow. The tension is building, and now FlyQuest is set to face one of the tournament favorites — the Chinese team Bilibili Gaming. According to Inspired, despite the team's overall sense of responsibility for the outcome, the pressure remains, and they will strive to do everything possible to win. However, as the player acknowledges, they are still perceived as underdogs.

Key Moment: Facing Bilibili Gaming

In his reflections, Inspired emphasizes that Bilibili Gaming has already established itself as a strong contender. During the interview, he noted that although FlyQuest made a name for themselves at Worlds 2024, expectations for them at MSI have changed. Bilibili Gaming, on the other hand, has demonstrated excellent results in the league and on the international stage.

I don't think Bilibili Gaming will treat us with any special respect, as they played well at Worlds and are getting stronger every day. We're still the underdogs, but that shouldn't be a focus, because everything can change on the field.

 

Additionally, he stressed that FlyQuest's preparation for each match involves a detailed study of opponents' strategies and readiness for aggressive play.

We focus on predicting what moves the opponent will make. We work on being ready for any situation, especially in the jungle, where the opponent can impose their game.

 

Development of Bilibili Gaming at MSI 2025

Speaking about Bilibili Gaming, Inspired noted that they still have their playstyle typical of Chinese teams — very strong laning and excellent team fights.

Bilibili Gaming plays by the classic Chinese scheme — strong laning and excellent team battles. This always distinguishes Chinese teams in international tournaments. Even if they don't take first place in the League, they are always very strong.

 

The player also noted that although Bilibili Gaming has reached a high level in the League several times, their play at MSI has shown their best qualities.

They play very aggressively, and on stage, it only intensifies. We must be ready for their attacking style.

 

For FlyQuest, the upcoming match against Bilibili Gaming will be a true test, especially given the heightened expectations and intense competition at MSI. Despite all the challenges, the team is determined to win and will do everything possible to prove their strength. In this matchup, much depends on strategy and making the right decisions at crucial moments.
