Match Prediction: Team BDS - Misfits Gaming | LoL
LEC Summer 2022 - Group StageGreetings to all League of Legends esports fans! At EGamersWorld, together we continue to analyze the events of LEC Summer 2022 and make our predictions. Let me remind you that this is the largest League of Legends tournament in Europe, and €200,000 EUR and three places at Worlds 2022 are at stake.
Team BDS vs Misfits Gaming
Two teams from the bottom of the standings. Who will be stronger?
The third game week will start immediately with a rather interesting match. The dark horse of the Misfits is against LEC rookies who didn't show much performance but were able to take the game away from G2 last week. The match, like everything else during the group stage, will be held in the Bo1 format, and therefore BDS have every chance to get another victory for themselves, just like MSF, who need it to get out of the bottom of the standings.
Form BDS
The team that recently took down G2 like a "pawn that killed the king". A team that rightfully boasts the most unusual champion pool, even by the standards of ranked games.
This is the first summer split for the guys from BDS. The team played very mediocre at LEC Spring 2022, after which they replaced the top liner and support. Personally, I think that with Erdote and especially Agresivoo they look much better than before.
So far, they go with 4 losses and 1 win, but what.
In general, you can't tell from their game that they were much weaker than their rivals in all five matches. In my opinion, their main problem is the love of risky decisions. It often happened that, having gained an advantage, they did not try to press the opponent carefully and play around the objects, but arranged a swing.
During the first week, they preferred to overclock the map and paid very little attention to objects. But that changed to the second. In the last two meetings, the guys began to play more around the dragons and the baron-pit, trying to leave the soul behind. In the game with G2, it worked very well.
There is potential, as well as opportunities for work on bugs.
Compound:
- Agresivoo - top laner
- Cincrof - forester
- NUCLEARINT - mid laner
- xMatty - bot laner
- Erdote - support
Misfits Gaming Uniform
The top 3-4 team of the spring split has given up their positions quite well. If earlier they were on a par with the same G2, Rogue, Fnatic in the group stage, then already in the first two weeks they managed to catch 3 pockets from weaker teams and another one from Rogue. And only their last meeting with SK Gaming ended in victory for them. So, like their opponent, the Misfits are going 1-4 in matches.
It is possible that these are just the consequences of the Tempering of Champions patch, which dramatically changed the League of Legends meta and the MSF player needs some time to adapt. But from what I can see, they often get lost in team fights, and their vision is abysmal for a professional scene.
The new top laner Irrelevant is performing both well and well. But with a high probability he will have problems with the line against the enemy Agresivoo.
Compound:
- Irrelevant - top laner
- Shlatan - forester
- Vetheo - mid laner
- Neon - bot laner
- Mersa - support
Meeting history
With approximately the same rosters, both teams met twice at the previous LEC Spring 2022 split. Both meetings went to Misfits Gaming without any questions.
Match outcome
Many bookmakers are sure that it is Misfits Gaming that looks like the favorite of this confrontation. Yes, the team performed well in the last two splits, but from what I see now, they have weakened and have lost more than once to those who should not have. In turn, Team BDS show very interesting ideas and a good game, although not stable. Considering that the format of the match is Bo1, experience will not affect the fight so much and BDS will be able to take a second victory against a nominally stronger team.
Outcome: Team BDS victory
