Match Prediction: Karmine Corp - Rogue | LoL
LEC Spring 2024 - Regular SeasonWelcome to EGamersWorld.
Matches continue to be played on the first game day of the second week of LEC Spring 2024. We are still watching the regular season, where 10 teams from Europe are trying to make it to the top eight to qualify for the play-offs and the €40,000 grand prize.
Among the contenders for the play-offs are Karmine Corp and Rogue. Both teams, to tell the truth, are far from title contenders and for each of them reaching the play-offs is already a success. What is true is that the likelihood of both KC and Rogue getting there is very low given the clubs' results in the first week of LEC Spring 2024.
Let's try to figure out which team will be stronger and earn important points in the run-up to the play-offs slots.
Let's go.
In-form Karmine Corp
Let's open our match analysis with an analysis of Karmine Corp's form. In this match they will be playing the number one, with odds to win at around 1.2.
Despite their great popularity in Europe, Karmine Corp are absolute newcomers to the LEC league. The French team has previously played on the local scene, competing against compatriots, and has also played in various TIR-2 events within the LEC ecosystem.
For 2023, the teami has a very strong record with appearances in 4 tournaments. For professional teams in League of Legends, this is significant, as most of them play exclusively in a single league.
Karmine Corp started with LFL Spring 2023 and started off horribly. At the local league the team played 7-11 in the group stage, which was not even enough to qualify for the play-offs.
Things improved dramatically from there and Karmine Corp lifted the championship trophy over their heads twice in a row. The first time at LFL Summer 2023 and the second time at EMEA Masters Summer 2023. Incidentally, Masters Karmine Corp have won 4 times in the team's history and that is a significant statistic.
The last tournament of last season was the Coup De France 2024 championship. Either there was no priority for the event, or they were not in shape at all, but KC took the top 8 there.
- Karmine Corp line-up: Cabochard, Saken, Caliste, Targamas, Kameto.
Karmine Corp became a member of LEC through the purchase of a slot from Astralis. The Danish club, which did not achieve results last season, decided to sell its place in the prestigious league. Whether they did the right thing - we will find out later.
In the first match of LEC Winter 2024 Karmine Corp will play against Fnatic. In that match I believe in the victory of Karmine. After that - the game against G2 Esports and there Karmine Corp will be much more difficult. However, with Fnatic everything turned out to be the opposite: KC won, and with G2 Esports - everything is logical, an easy victory for the "samurai".
Karmine Corp officially became the worst team of LEC Winter 2024 ahead of time. Before Long Sogpeg of their last match in the regular season, KC have a stat line of 1-7, with their only win coming in week 3 against SK Gaming. The only treat was the prestige point that Karmine Corp got in their last match of the group stage.
Karmine Corp finished the first week of play at LEC Spring 2024 with a 1-2 score. They managed to beat GiantX, but in addition, G2 and Fnatic were on the calendar, and KC consequently lost without much of a chance.
The most popular champions of Karmine Corp
The most popular and successful champion for the top line remains Gragas (3 matches, 100% wins), and also Kennen (3 matches, 66% wins).
Wukong (6 games, 33% wins) and Sejuani (4 matches, 100% wins) play in the forest.
The centre line is played with Ahri (4 matches, 0% wins), Tristana (3 matches, 100% wins) and Syndra (3 matches, 100% wins).
The ADC position is most often occupied by Lucian (4 matches. 50% wins), Aphelios (4 matches, 75% wins).
Nami (3 games, 66% wins), Thresh (3 matches, 100% wins) are often paired with shooters.
Rogue uniforms
We continue our match breakdown with an analysis of Rogue's match form. In this match they will play as an outsider, with odds to win around 3.7.
Rogue had a very interesting position in The International at LEC Winter 2024. The fact is that the team missed the entire 2023 and only returned to the competitive League of Legends on the eve of 2024. This is, in principle, a very logical decision, because in 2022 Rogue showed high results.
First, they proved themselves at LEC Spring 2022, reaching the Grand Final of the Spring Split. Then G2 stepped in and prevented Rogue from ending the season with a triumph.
However, fortune proved favourable in the next European league. At LEC Summer 2022, Rogue finished top-3 in the group stage, and then played a pretty tough play-offs: a 3-2 win over MAD Lions, a 0-3 loss to G2, a small final win over Fnatic, and finally an undisputed championship with a 3-0 win over G2.
Rogue visited Worlds 2022 in October the season before last. They were not expected to make it to Worlds 2022, but Rogue exceeded many expectations by making it to the play-offs. At the end of the tournament, the team finished in the top 8, which is an absolute success for European residents.
- Rogue line-up: Szygenda, Markoon, Larssen, Comp, Zoelys.
In the new season the core of Koi plays for Rogue, which is quite logical, because the club absorbed the slot of the Spanish organisation.
In the first match, Rogue will meet SK Gaming. I expect a win in the first match for the "new" team within the LEC. Next - the game against Heretics and here it will not be easier than in the match with SK: "Heretics" look good, and their roster is probably one of the most combative in the new LEC. In the end Rogue Ledge and Heretics beat G2 Esports, who are considered to be the main favourites for the tournament, but then lost to SK Gaming.
The first week Rogue went 1-2, which is not good, but not critical. But things got much worse, which led Rogue to a 2-6 statistic before Long Sogpeg's final match. And they lost that one, thus finishing in the top 9.
The first week of LEC Spring 2024, Rogue went as they were expected to go 0-3. The situation is already critical and a similar result in this round puts an end to Rogue's prospects of going further.
Rogue's most popular champions
Ornn (4 games, 25% wins), Gangplank (4 games, 100% wins), Gnar (4 games, 50% wins), Gwen (4 games, 50% wins) were equally at the top.

ADC position was closed by Kalista (5 matches, 40% of wins), Ezrael (3 matches, 66% of wins), Sivir (3 matches, 66% of wins).
Renata Glasc (3 games, 33% wins), Rakan (3 matches, 100% wins), Nami (2 matches, 100% wins) were selected for the tournament.

Predicted result of Karmine Corp vs Rogue at LEC Spring 2024
Given Rogue's performance in the first week of LEC Spring 2024 matches, I expect nothing but a loss from them. And even in a match against a really up-and-coming opponent.
Bottom line: a win for Karmine Corp.
