Match Prediction: JD Gaming - Invictus Gaming | LoL
LPL Spring 2022 - Group Stage (Week 6-9)The first of two matches for today, which will be held as part of the League of Legends spring split in China, known as LPL Spring 2022. JD Gaming and Invictus Gaming will meet in it.
On the one hand, everything seems to be quite obvious and JDG now look and demonstrate the game at a level higher than their current rival. Therefore, many immediately gave them their votes.
On the other hand, the guys from iG just a couple of days ago defeated the terrible roster of new Bilibili Gaming, which is clearly something to be proud of. But what they can’t exactly boast of is the permanent main roster. Although not stable, iG can surprise what each of their opponents should consider.
J.D. Gaming kit
8th team on the leaderboard, a surprisingly high position. Stable and good solutions, but not at the level of S-tier teams.
Prior to this split, JDG flew off with a score of 0 - 4 in matches at Demacia Cup 2021 in a weak group. And the whole season last year the team did not go. Therefore, I began to think that the team was having a difficult period and nothing should be expected from them.
However, at a meeting with the current world champions in League of Legends, they showed themselves far from the worst.
The players showed good tactical decisions during the match, and their ideas were quite working. But when something didn't go according to JDG's original plan, the guys fell out.
Exactly the same game we could see against RNG, with the help of which they even managed to win back one map for themselves. Given their past seasons, this result is quite satisfactory.
Then went winstreak in four matches in a row against LGD, WE, OMG and even the "phoenixes" from FPX.
In the last match, the team flew off Top Esports, but the fight was very, very equal and there was every chance to take the meeting in their favor. Yes, and Top Esports is far from the worst team, however, which disappointed at the beginning of the split.
Now I think that against the background of the rest of the LPL Spring 2022 teams in their current form, JDG will be able to retain their position in the standings and, perhaps, even beat TES by one place.
JD Gaming roster:
- 369 - top lane.
- Kanavi - forest.
- Yagao - mid lane.
- Hope - bot lane.
- Missing - support.
Invictus Gaming kit
12th position in the LPL Spring 2022 leaderboard. They seemed weak, but after shuffles the team managed to snatch two wins and rise.
iG played both splits of 2021 extremely unsuccessfully for themselves, which they were extremely unhappy with. I guess that's why the organization began to change the composition of the team so often. Since that time, we have already seen the change of two mid-laners and one ADK. Almost all from their own academy.
Now the situation has not changed. During the split alone, they managed to change two players inside the main roster and play in three different roster variants.
In fact, Invictus Gaming have now taken the best players of their Invictus Gaming Young academic roster and thrown them into a real tournament. The only active non-iG Young player is their mid laner Yuekai. A guy from the RNG academy, later their replacement, who never fired.
Moreover, already at Demacia Cup 2021, the team signed two new coaches, with whom they had never worked before.
We may have seen iG stop changing players, but that's not certain. The team played the last three matches with the same roster, with which they managed to defeat Rare Atome and, surprisingly, Bilibili Gaming. It is thanks to such results that I believe that they will not change players in the near future.
What to expect from Invictus Gaming, I confess I'm not sure. Players, at the level of personal performance, are not bad. With the current roster, they will be able to compete well with teams from the bottom half of the leaderboard.
Invictus Gaming roster:
- Zika is the top lane.
- neny - top lane (replacement).
- xun - forest.
- Yuekai - mid lane.
- Ahn - bot lane.
- xiaoyueji - bot lane (replacement).
- Lucas - support.
Meeting history
The participants in this match have previously played each other as many as 19 times, which is quite an impressive figure for a personal confrontation. Invictus Gaming won 12 times, and JD Gaming won 7 times.
Obviously, the former greatness of iG is in the past. Now they have a completely new, young roster.
Yes, and the last 5 matches between the teams went once-through-time.
Match result
Even though iG have gotten a taste of victory lately, which certainly gave them confidence, playing against JDG won't come easy to them.
JD Gaming are in better shape now and they show the game a cut above. If they don't fail at all with the draft, they should win.
Moreover, there is a risk that Invictus Gaming will again have roster changes that will not play into their hands.
In this match, I would advise betting on JDG to win.
Bookmakers & Statistics
