Match Prediction: JD Gaming - Bilibili Gaming | LoL
LPL Spring 2023 - PlayoffsWelcome back to EGamersWorld. We have reached the climax of LPL Spring 2023 and have prepared a betting tip for you on the JD Gaming vs Bilibili Gaming match in the Grand Final of the Spring Split of the biggest regional league.
Ahead of the Long Song matchup, we analyzed all of the LPL Spring 2023 play-offs, evaluated the teams' play in the regular season and looked at the successes of the performers.
Now we are ready to tell you what to expect and if the match will be a grand finale of a ~$600,000 tournament.
JD Gaming form - one step away from securing the LPL Summer 2022 title
Let's start the breakdown of the match by analysing the playing form of JD Gaming, the reigning LPL champions (winners at LPL Summer 2022). In this encounter, the team will play as favourites.
Bookmakers confirm JDG's pre-match position with low odds. The odds on JD Gaming's victory in the LPL Spring 2023 final are estimated at around 1.4.
A figure like that lays well on paper and looks natural. It is backed up by JD Gaming's past status (Top 1 at LPL Summer 2022) as well as the club's current performance.
Throughout the course of LPL Spring 2023, JD Gaming have shown with all their sights that they are ready to take the championship title. One of the main favorites in the championship race went 13-3 in the regular season, splitting the top one with EDward Gaming and LNG Esports.
A strong performance in the group allowed JD Gaming to qualify directly for the semifinals of the LPL Spring 2023 top play-offs. The first match of the main stage was a real test for JG as they faced their future rivals Bilibili Gaming.
Thanks to the will to win and strong individual performers, JD Gaming defeated Bilibili Gaming 3-2 and then outscored Edward Gaming cleanly. JD Gaming's second match in the play-offs showed us why they can be called the main favourite of the tournament.
- JD Gaming's line-up for the LPL Spring 2023 Final: 369, Kanavi, Knight, Ruler, Missing.
The JD Gaming roster is another obvious reason why the club is ranked as a first-choice contender. They've managed to bring together big-name players with impressive credentials under "one roof".
When it comes to personalities in this tournament, almost everyone on the active roster stands out in equal measure. In the last match against EDG, for example, Knight, Kanavi and 369 played a key role in the victory, but that game was won to nothing at the draft stage.
JD Gaming's most popular champions in the LPL Spring 2023 play-offs
- Top line: Renekton (7 games, 71% wins), KSante (7 games, 85% wins), Sion (4 games, 100% wins)
- Jungle: Wukong (5 games, 100% wins)
- Centre Line: Ahri (3 matches, 100% wins).
- Gunner: Zeri (2 games, 100% wins), Aphelios (2 games, 100% wins).
- Sappers: Lulu (2 games, 100% wins), Rakan (2 games, 100% wins).
If you can get enough of the fact that JD Gaming have played in the later stages of the LPL and that they won last year coupled with their stellar lineup, bet on JD Gaming to win at odds in the region of 1.4.
Not ready to trust the bookies and think the game will be tougher for JD Gaming than what they say on paper - read about Bilibili Gaming's form.
Bilibili Gaming's form - the underdog that got it right
Opposing JD Gaming on their way to their second consecutive LPL title will be Bilibili Gaming, who created a furore at the tournament. However, they will be playing as underdogs.
The bookmakers aren't ready to believe that Bilibili Gaming have the upper hand against a formidable opponent in the match. This is reflected by the odds of success in the region of 2.4.
If we make an analogy with JD Gaming, a similar figure next to the tag Bilibili Gaming corresponds to the BBG's performance during the season, and also their status. On the latter point, Bilibili cannot catch up with JDG as this is the first finals for the club.
And it has fully earned them. Bilibili Gaming finished the group stage in 5th place on the standings table, which sent them into the second round of play-offs, from where their run to the grand final began.
Along the way BBG passed Royal Never Give Up 3-1, Weibo Gaming 3-0 before falling to JD Gaming. That match was one of the highlights of the professional season and ended 3-2 in favour of JDG.
At the bottom of the grid, Bilibili Gaming got past Oh My God before beating Edward Gaming in a tight game. Bilibili Gaming's current roster is thus the first roster to represent the organization at the Mid-Season Invitational 2023.
- Bilibili Gaming line-up: Bin, XUN, Yagao, Elk, ON
Since Bilibili Gaming played the most matches in the play-offs, the team players earned the most MVP titles, but deservedly so. Elk and ON were the most often awarded, being the most effective players four times each.
The most popular Bilibili Gaming champions
- Top Line: Kenen (3 matches, 100% wins).
- Jungle: Lee Sin (3 matches, 100% wins).
- Centre Line: Veigar (3 matches, 100% wins).
- Shooter: Zeri (3 games, 100% win rate), Aphelios (3 matches, 100% win rate).
- Support: Rakan (2 games, 50% wins), Leona (2 games, 100% win rate).
Bilibili Gaming have already made a splash and become the main sensation donor at LPL Spring 2023. If you believe they can pull off the biggest one yet by beating reigning LPL champions JD Gaming in the final, bet on Yagao to win at odds around 2.4.
Before reading our opinion, we suggest dipping into the history of the teams' matches. There is a lot to remember there.

The teams have played each other twice in the course of this tournament. Both times JD Gaming won, but both times it was difficult for them: 2-1 in the group stage and 3-2 in the play-offs.
JD Gaming vs Bilibili Gaming predicted match result
Given the history of head-to-head encounters and the overall level of play-offs of the teams, it can be assumed that the game will not end in a dry sweep. I see the most likely 3-1, slightly less likely 3-2.
Now for the winner. As for me, JD Gaming will win this match because they have great experience of playing in the finals, and have already won twice against Bilibili Gaming.
Bottom line: 3-1 win for JD Gaming.
