Welcome to EGamersWorld.
We continue to keep an eye on what's happening at LPL Spring 2025. In the titular Chinese region, the group stages continue, which will determine the 8 play-offs participants.
Despite the rather obscure group stage format, where most of the teams from the group stage already know their fate, this does not negate the need to finish the remaining matches. Ultra Prime and Oh My God already know that they will not qualify for the play-offs, but they must play the "prestige match".
Let's find out who will be stronger in the prestige match and who will earn the non-decisive points.
Let's go.
Oh My God uniforms
Let's open the Oh My God vs Ultra Prime match with an analysis of Oh My God's form. In this match they play as favourites with odds to win at 1.7.
OMG are not known for their iconic performance, but they have been somewhere in the middle for virtually their entire history. That was also the case in 2022, when OMG finished in the top 10 of LPL Summer 2022.
OMG looked much more formidable after the restarts before the start of the 2023 season. Their first big result was a top-4 finish at LPL Spring 2023, and that's quite an accomplishment.
- Oh My God line-up: Hery, Heng, Linfeng, Starry, Moham.
At the end of LPL Summer 2023, Oh My God finished in the top 8. They advanced to the play-offs, the second round of the main stage where they played against EDward Gaming. They failed to beat the title club, as a result 2-3.
In addition to participating in the regional championships of the LPL series, OMG played at the local event NEST 2023. There, by the way, Oh My God showed a really high level of play. Despite sluggish play in the group stage, having reached the play-offs from the second place of their basket, Oh My God beat Bilibili and FunPlus Phoenix in turn, but reaching the finals could not match Royal Never Give Up.
Later there was a similar tournament to NEST 2023 called Demacia Cup 2023, where academic teams also played. There the team failed to make it out of the group.
At LPL Spring 2024, OMG managed to qualify for the play-offs of the tournament. However, they could not go further than the first round and as a result - top 10.
The last major tournament Oh My God was LPL Summer 2024. There the team played in Group C, lost 0-6 and left the tournament with nothing.
The 2025 Long season started with the group stage in Basket C. They lost their first two matches and left the tournament with nothing. Lost their first two matches and are in third place, but with no chance of qualifying for the play-offs.
Oh My God's most popular champions
KSante (6 matches, 50% wins), Sion (2 matches, 50% wins) appeared on the top line in OMG picks.
Foresters were picked by Sejuani (4 matches, 50% wins), Wukong (3 matches, 33% wins), Vi (2 matches, 50% wins), Maokai (2 matches, 50% wins). Poppy was also winning.
On the centre line, the most piked were the contact killers. Sylas and Yone were picked three times each, both won 2 matches each.
Lucian was the most frequent shooter. The champion was picked 5 times, and he won 2 matches. Zeri (3 games, 100% wins), Varus (2 matches, 50% wins) were also picked.
The pool of players is quite familiar. Karma (2 games, 50% wins), Yuumi (2 matches, 100% wins), Nami (2 games, 50% wins).
Ultra Prime uniforms
We continue the analysis of the match Ultra Prime - Oh My God with the analysis of Ultra Prime's form. In this match they play in the status of an outsider with the odds of winning around 2.7.
The maximum achievement remains a top-12 finish in 2022. This happened at the LPL Spring 2022.
Ultra Prime's last achievement, on the other hand, was a top-17 at LPL Spring 2023. Next up was LPL Summer 2023
- Ultra Prime's lineup: 1Jiang, Junhao, Saber, Wako, Rosielove.
UP tried to somehow improve their standing on the global Chinese scene by playing at LPL Summer 2023, but it turned out to be pretty mediocre. Ultra Prime finished their appearance at LPL Summer 2023 in the group stage, playing it with a score of 5-11. Nominally, the result improved from LPL Spring 2023, but in fact, it did not.
Prior to the Long Soccer Demacia Cup 2023, the team played at NEST 2023. The performance was not there either: 1-2 in the group and an early exit to the Top 16. It was not possible to overcome the defeat at NEST 2023: Demacia Cup 2023 finished with identical results, i.e. TOP-16 after not getting out of the group.
At LP Spring 2024 Ultra Prime showed the game that was expected of them: TOP-17 without much chance for a more decent place, if I may say so - TOP-15.
Ultra Prime's most popular champions
On the top line the most frequent picks are KSante (4 matches, 50% wins), Gnar (3 matches, 100% wins).
Foresters picks are Wukong (4 matches, 50% wins), Vi (2 matches, 50% wins), Nocturne (2 matches, 50% wins), Viego (2 matches, 0% wins).
On the centre line Gragas (4 matches, 50% wins), Annie (4 matches, 50% wins).
Aphelios (6 matches, 33% wins), Jinx (3 matches, 66% wins), Zeri (2 matches, 100% wins).
Lulu (3 matches, 66% wins), Rakan (3 games, 0% wins), Nautilus (2 matches, 50% wins).
Head-to-head history of Oh My God - Ultra Prime
In the season 2024 the teams played each other three times and all matches ended in favour of Oh My God.
Predicted result of Ultra vs Oh My God at LPL Spring 2025
I can't imagine what should change in this match given the history of head-to-head encounters. However, both teams show a roughly equal level of play and it's certainly not at the level of LPL play-offs.
Bottom line: victory Oh My God.
