Predictions for LoL Championship China Qualifiers

Published 2020-09-27 19:42

Here’s our betting tips for the Chinese League of Legends teams that have qualified directly to the main event of the LoL world championships. The LPL region is the only one that has consistently troubled the Korean hegemony that appeared at the beginning of the LoL world championships.

Top Esports

With the slightly convoluted way that the Chinese LPL selected their representatives for worlds this year Top Esports went for the easiest route, by winning the summer season, just edging out JD Gaming in a thrilling 3-2 final. Another roster that mixes young talent with experience this roster is definitely one that is not here to make up the numbers.

2018 World Champion ADC JackeyLove knows exactly what it takes to win the top prize. Combined with the years of experience joining him in the form of Karsa on support this bot lane has all the know how to win and sometimes more importantly for the duo lane, to not throw. Their midlaner Knight is coming off an unbelievable season and will most likely be the player to get funnelled as much resources as possible.

Suggested Betting: Knight for highest KDA in group stages.

JD Gaming

Jingdong Gaming as the second seed managed to qualify for Worlds without having to go through the regional play-off by securing the best finish over the spring and summer split. A small consolation after losing to Top Esports in the Summer Final. After a poor start to the summer split they made some small organisational changes and then went on a tear during the middle section of the season. Though this form did curtail towards the end of the season they had done enough to qualify.

Their roster has been pretty settled for a while now and all players are comfortable playing with each other, their main worry going into this world championship will be mentality with very little experience on the world stage in any position. If they the end of season is anything to go by they may not have the required steel to up their game when it counts.

Suggested Betting: JD Gaming not to get out of group stages. I have a feeling these could be the biggest casualty of the group stages as their inexperience comes back to haunt them.

Suning

Suning have been around in the LPL for a long time but have always been a bottom to mid-tier team. That all changed this year when they put together an impressive run to qualify as Chinas third seed. This unexpected result can probably be traced to their Jungler SofM, the Vietnamese prodigy who has had to wait his turn in the limelight due to age restrictions for competitive play.

Once SofM joined the main roster things began to look up for Suning and after acclimatising to his new team during the spring split he carried the team to glory during the summer split. With a particularly impressive showing in the regional finals against LGD to decide who gets 3^rd seed for China.

Suggested Betting: SofM for group stage MVP. Everything Suning do will go through him.
