Match Prediction: GAM Esports - LOUD | LoL
Worlds 2023 LoL - Play-InWelcome to EGamersWorld.
We are in full swing preparing for the main event on the international scene in 2023 - the Worlds 2023 tournament. Worlds 2023 will start soon in South Korea and this Worlds will start with the Play-In stage.
There will be 8 teams playing in the Play-In, one of which is still unknown. It will be either BDS or Golden Guardians, but that's not what we're talking about right now. Now on the agenda is the match between Gam and LOUD.
Both teams are in Group A, from where only 2 teams will pass further. By the way, Gam and LOUD are among the main contenders for passage.
We will try to find out who will be stronger in this match and earn a very important victory on the eve of the main battles at Worlds 2023. Let's go.
Form LOUD
We open our match analysis with an analysis of LOUD's form. In this match they will play with a minimal advantage, in my opinion.
But League of Legends betting sites are not ready to highlight the favourite. In this match, the odds for LOUD success is at around 1.9.
Roughly speaking, we are facing a battle between two equal teams. I think this will be the case.
LOUD is twice the best team in Brazil. The first time the team took their first title was in 2021, won by CBLOL Split 2 2021, the analogue of the summer split in LJL.
The second time the championship was earned already this year, at CBLOL Split Season 2. In addition, LOUD, have been celebrated internationally.
The team played at Worlds 2022, where, incidentally, Ledgeila DFM. The appearance at MSI 2023 is the club's debut in this series of tournaments.
- LOUD lineup: Robo, Croc, TinOwns, Route, Ceos.
So far, LOUD's debut is hard to call successful. In their first match at the Mid-Season Invitational 2023, the team faced G2 Esports, one of the main favourites to advance to the group stage.
The match ended 2-0 in favour of the Samurai, but LOUD tried. At least on the first map before the transition to the mid-late game LOUD had a chance to clinch a point, but G2 outclassed their opponents.
After the loss to G2 Loud fell to the bottom of the grid where they faced DetonatioN FocusMe. Being the underdogs at the time, LOUD pulled out a clean win, but in the next round Ledge and PSG Talon, finishing in the top 11 of the tournament.
The team made it to Worlds 2023 as the champions of CBLOL Split 2 2023. There LOUD easily took the top 1, in the grand finals closing PaiN Gaming.
LOUD's most popular champions
Aatrox (3 matches, 100% wins) and Renekton (2 matches, 100% wins) appear on LOUD's top line.
Taking the jungle is Sejuani (4 matches, 100% wins).
The centre line is not the most popular Taliyah (3 games, 100% wins) and Lissandra (3 games, 66% wins).
Among the shooters Aphelios (4 matches, 75% wins) and also Xayah (3 matches, 66% wins).
In ѕuрроrts take Nautilus (4 games, 75% wins).
GAM Esports uniforms
We continue our match breakdown with an analysis of GAM Esports' match form. In this match they are a bit behind, but only nominally.
The bookmakers also agree with this. The odds for a win are floating around 1.9-1.95.
And it is true, it is very difficult to choose a favourite here. Both regions are close to each other in terms of the level of play, as are their representatives, by the way.
If we dig deeper, we can see that GAM Esports is one of the most titled teams in Vietnam with 5 wins in regional splits and several top 2 home league titles. At the last event, VCS Dawn 2023, GAM Esports had a very strong run in the play-offs, winning the group 14-0 in the series. GAM played well in the play-offs itself, giving up a total of 4 maps in 3 series.
Vietnam (VCS) - My region with an asterisk. Teams from there are capable of putting up a fight against the world's top League of Legends clubs, as demonstrated by GAM Esports during Worlds 2017, 2019, and even at Worlds 2022.
The peak of performance on the international stage remains 2017. That's when GAM Esports finished in the top 6 at the 2017 Mid-Season Invitational.
To repeat the success of 2017, it is mandatory to beat Rainbow7 in the upcoming confrontation. Everything seems to be in place for that to happen.
- GAM Esports lineup: Kiaya, Levi, Kati, Sty1e, Zin .
GAM has the top performers by VCS standards, which is confirmed by the club's performance at home. However, they didn't help GAM to beat a more titled opponent, namely Golden Guardians, with whom GAM played in the first round of Play-In MSI 2023 and lost without much chance.
All in all, MSI 2023 ended very badly for GAM Esports. After losing in the first round, the Vietnamese unexpectedly defeated Rainbow7 in the first round of the lower grid, and therefore ignominiously left the championship at the Top 12.
The team made it to Worlds 2023 thanks to a win at the home VCS Dusk 2023. In the grand finals, they easily beat Team Whales with a score of 3-1.
GAM Esports' most popular champions
Fiora (3 matches, 100% wins) and Jax (3 matches, 66% wins) are the most often sent to the top line.
Wukong (3 matches, 100% winrate) and Lee Sin (3 matches, 66% wins) are the most frequently played Foresters.
Lissandra (7 games, 85% win rate) is the most often played on the centre line.
Among shooters Zeri (6 matches, 50% win rate) is preferred.
And in shooters Nautilus is familiar (8 matches, 75% wins).
History of head-to-head meetings
Previously, the teams have not played each other in official matches. This will be the debut face-to-face match for the sides.
Predicted result of Gam Esports vs LOUD at Worlds 2023
Considering the odds, we expect an even game between the sides. If I were to pick a winner, I'd still take a closer look at LOUD. Remembering the performance that Gam showed at Mid-Season Invitational 2023, I'm afraid for them at Worlds 2023 as well. In general, I will believe in the Brazilians.
Bottom line: LOUD wins.
Greetings to all.
Today I will give my prediction between GAM of Vietnam vs LOUD of Brazil where they will play a best of 3 maps match to advance to the next round of Play-in.
GAM roster and top players are: Kiaya, Levi, Kati, Slayder and Palette.
GAM Vietnamese team with better performance in their region and that I see much stronger than LOUD where I think it will not have the ability to give GAM fight although there may be 3 maps leading to a fairly tight match between these 2 teams.
We start with GAM a team that I see very strong where their players have a very good level against LOUD players.
I think GAM will come with everything to advance to the next round and I don't think they will let it so easy to LOUD, although it seems that LOUD has a good level from my point of view I see the opposite, I see LOUD players quite irregular, I would dare to say that LOUD will not pass Play-in.
We will have to see how both teams will arrive for this first game, any of them can be a surprise.
So my prediction is that GAM will win the series but it might be difficult for them.
So my prediction today will be that GAM will win against LOUD but for something safer I will give a map advantage.
In conclusion: GAMhandicap +1.5 map.
OVERALL POWER: 50-50
GAM: GAM Esport is the 8 times champion of VCS.
GAM always has great players in their team. They win multiple championships including this year. This summer, they've struggled a bit in regular season but they find a way to comeback in playoffs and win everything.
The only thing they lack have is a good ADC player.
This summer, they've got it. They bought the best ADC player in VCS to their in pursuit to higher place of Worlds 2023.
GAM 2023 is considered the best roster they've ever had. Every lane is strong, they have youth, experience, the harmony between players are great.
LOUD: The Titan of CBL
I've watched LOUD games, they are a great team. They have experience players like Robo, tinowns and two Korean players.
But this is game of 5 people. And i think 5 Vietnamese will make a difference and this is the chance for them to fix the mistake they made in MSI. Their hunger for this is much higher.
Previously, the teams have not played each other in official matches. This will be the debut face-to-face match for the sides.
Considering the odds, we expect an even game between the sides. If I were to pick a winner, I'd still take GAM. I will believe in the Vietnamese
Final Prediction: GAM 2-1 LOUD
