Match Prediction: Rogue - Team Heretics | LoL
LEC Winter 2024 - Regular SeasonWelcome to EGamersWorld.
We're still following the action at LEC Winter 2024. And there's plenty to watch: €80,000, slots to the Mid-Season Invitational 2024 and LEC Finals 2024.
There are 10 teams competing for worthwhile prizes. Among them are Rogue and Team Heretics, trying to qualify for the play-offs of the first ranked tournament.
The Heretics vs Rogue match will end the second game day of the regular season. We'll try to figure out who will be stronger and earn extra points ahead of the final day of the first game week.
Let's go.
Team Heretics uniforms
We start the match with an analysis of Team Heretics' uniforms. In this match they will play the number one side with odds to win at around 1.7.
Heretics have been in the LEC structure since 2022. In their "debut" season, Team Heretics played on the TIR-2 stage, more specifically in Superliga Summer 2022 (Top 1), European Masters Summer 2022 (Top 1) and Iberian Cup 2022, where they finished Top 2.
In 2023, the Heretics entered the LEC series of tournaments. The successes were not so good: first TOP-8 at LEC Winter 2023, with SK Gaming knocking them out.
In spring the situation only got worse: Heretics again failed in the group stage, this time playing it with a score of 3-6 and not making it to the play-offs.
In the next round of the LEC draw, Team Heretics performed their best as an affiliate team. They took the top 4 at LEC Summer 2023, Ledge and Fnatic in a battle for the top 3. Heretics secured $5,512 by finishing in the top 4.
- Team Heretics roster: Wunder, Jankoz, Perkz, Flakked, Kaiser .
After a series of bad performances last year, Heretics changed their roster by signing top European players. Let's see how they will do against the strongest representatives of the region.
In the opening match Heretics will play against MAD Lions. I expect Heretics to win that match.
Team Heretics' most popular champions
Aatrox (3 matches, 100% wins) and Renekton (2 matches, 100% wins) appear on LOUD's top line.
Sejuani (4 matches, 100% wins) and Wukong (3 matches, 66% wins) take the jungle.
On the centre line, Taliyah (3 matches, 100% wins) and Lissandra (3 matches, 66% wins) are not the most popular.
Among the shooters Aphelios (4 games, 75% wins) and Xayah (3 games, 66% wins) are the most popular.
Nautilus (4 games, 75% wins), Nami (4 games, 75% wins).
Rogue Form
We continue the match analysis with an analysis of Rogue's match form. This match will be played at number two, with odds in the region of 2.1.
Rogue has a very interesting position at LEC Winter 2024. The fact is that the team missed the entire 2023 and only returned to the competitive League of Legends in the run-up to 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.
Rogue's most popular champions
Ornn (4 matches, 25% wins), Gangplank (4 matches, 100% wins), Gnar (4 games, 50% wins), Gwen (4 matches, 50% wins) were all equally weaponised on top.
Wukong (4 matches, 75% wins), Vi (3 games, 33% wins), Trundle (3 matches, 33% wins) played in the forest.
Azir (6 matches, 66% wins), Taliyah (4 games, 25% wins) played on the centre.
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 Heretics vs Rogue at LEC Winter 2024
As far as I'm concerned, this is the most unobvious match of the tourney. Heretics should win, but there is a good chance to see Rogue comeback to the big stage. However, there will be time for that, but for now, Heretics win.
Bottom line: Heretics win.
