LGD Gaming Will win

Welcome to EGamersWorld.

We continue to follow the action at Demacia Cup 2024. This is arguably the premier tournament of the off-season, taking place in China with the region's title teams.

EDward Gaming and LGD Gaming are among the contenders. The teams will start their Demacia Cup 2024 journey from Group A. It is worth noting that the Demacia Cup 2024 will be played by squads close to the main squads, so the spectacle should be The International interesting.

Let's try to find out which of the pair LGD - EDW will be stronger and earn points ahead of the distribution of slots for the play-offs.

Let's go.

LGD Gaming uniforms

Let's open the LGD vs EDG match with an analysis of LGD's form. In this match they will play as favourites with odds to win at around 1.4.

Since 2015, the team cannot boast of any performance. The last season is no exception.

LGD Gaming failed miserably in the 2022 season when they finished top-14 and top-16 at LPL Spring and LPL Summer respectively. In 2023, we wanted to believe in progress, but it turned out to be Top 14 at LPL Spring 2023.

LGD Gaming lineup: sasi, climber, xqw, Shaoye, Ycx.

A series of defeats led to another change in the lineup. Tested a new roster at NEST 2023, but even there we did not progress beyond the group stage - TOP-17.

It was not much better at Demacia Cup 2023. Although LGD Gaming played in the group 3-1, they still could not make it to the play-offs. LPL Spring 2024 finished in their repertoire, namely on TOP-12.

At the LPL Summer 2024 Long Sogpeg from Group B, where they finished top-2. This allowed them to advance to the Rumble Stage, where, however, LGD Gaming failed to cope with the onslaught. The team played with the score 1-7, and entered the play-offs after winning the Decider-match against Invictus Gaming. However, they didn't manage to play in the main stage for a long time, as LGD lost in the first play-offs match.

The most popular champions of LGD Gaming

KSante (4 matches, 25% winrate), Malphite (3 matches, 0% wins), Gragas (3 matches, 66% wins), Gnar (3 matches, 0% wins) are the most popular champions on the top line.

In the forest they play with Graves (4 matches, 25% wins), Wukong (4 matches, 25% wins), Kindred (3 matches, 66% wins).

The centre line by measure is Annie (6 matches, 16% wins), Neeko (5 matches, 20% wins), Ahri (4 matches, 50% wins).

Aphelios (6 matches, 16% wins) is the most frequently chosen shooter. There are also Jinx (2 matches, 50% wins) and Xayah (2 matches, 0% wins).

The pool of players is pretty standard: Lulu (5 matches, 40% wins), Braum (3 matches, 33% wins), Nautilus (3 matches, 0% wins), Rakan (3 matches, 0% wins).

EDward Gaming Form.

We continue our analysis of the match EDward Gaming - LGD with an analysis of EDward Gaming's form. In this match, they play the number two with odds to win around 2.5.

In 2022 EDG again made their way to the Worlds, but managed to finish "only" in the top 8. That's a strong showing for some, but not for EDG.

The last result of EDG was the top 3 at LPL Spring 2023. Then it was not enough to win one series to qualify for the Mid-Season Invitational 2023.

EDG roster: Zdz, Xiaohao, Angel, Assum, Wink.

At LPL Summer 2023, the team played within their capabilities. First, in the group stage, they finished top 8, which was enough to qualify for the play-offs. In the main stage, EDG beat Team WE 3-1, and then beat OMG, beating the much-talked-about team 3-2. Only TES were able to overcome EDG's pressure, winning 3-2 in the quarter-finals.

Before Long Corner at LPL Spring 2024, the team played in a number of third-party TIR-2 championships. This was the Esports Shanghai Masters 2023, where EDG defeated Gen.G in the grand final (but they played academic squads, which is not surprising).

EDG later played at NEST 2023. The successes there were much more modest: EDG did not make it out of the group stage, while playing it with a score of 3-0 (they withdrew from the tournament).

The last tournament before LPL Spring 2024 for EDG was the Demacia Cup 2023. There, the once super titular team of China and the world grazed the back of the pack: they lost all matches in the group stage and left the championship on top-17-20.

At LPL Spring 2024, the team played abysmally: 3-13 in the group stage and TOP-16 at the end of the tournament. It was a little better at LPL Summer 2024, where the team took TOP-14, but it is certainly not a good result.

EDward Gaming's most popular champions

Edward Gaming has a very extensive pool of champions in the top line up. Fiora, Sion, Kenen and Renekton appeared 3 times each, of which the first two won 2 matches each, but Kenen and Renekton took all their games. Jayce, KSante, Camile, Jax and Gnar appeared 2 times each (Jax won both matches, the others 1-1).

Things are much less varied in the metha dictated forest. The most pickable character is Maokai (7 games, 100% wins). Next are Vi (5 games, 80% wins) and Sejuani and Wukong (4 games each, 50% wins).

The centre line doesn't shine with variety either. The same popular Azir (6 games, 50% wins), Jayce (6 games, 83% wins), Akali (5 games, 80% wins).

In bot - Zeri (7 matches, 100% wins), Lucian (4 matches, 50% wins), Caitlyn (100% wins in 3 matches), Jhin (3 games, 66% wins).

The situation is as follows: Nami, Ashe, Yummi have 4 games each with 2 wins for the first, 3 for the second and perfect winrate for the third. Then come Heim (3 games, 66% wins) and Annie (3 games, 100% wins).
