Match Prediction: Hanwha Life Esports - Nongshim RedForce | LoL
LCK Spring 2022 - Group StageI welcome everyone to LCK Spring 2022! The LPL in China had just begun, and after 2 days the Korean League arrived. Moreover, all kinds of tournaments in Europe are starting now. But for now, I will be with you only in two regions and, accordingly, tournaments in Asia: LPL and LCK.
I will understand and write analytics about what I think about the teams, their real strengths and capabilities at each of the matches. Don't miss it!
Today we have already witnessed how favorites T1 and Liiv SANDBOX took over meetings, each with a score of 2: 0. So in Korea so far without any special surprises, in contrast to the Middle Kingdom.
Today, on the first match of the day, we are waiting for Hanwha Life Esports with an updated roster against the brand new Nongshim RedForce.
Hanwha Life Esports uniform
Over the past two years, the guys from HLE have pulled together and have shown themselves very well, both inside Korea and in the world, because they got to Worlds. However, what's here, what's their scourge - T1. Which did not give them the championship at the LCK 2021 Regional Finals and they also kicked them out of Worlds 2021.
So the team looked good, slightly falling short of the top Koreans from DWG KIA and T1. But it was like that before.
For the new season, the main HLE roster has undergone major changes. From the past roster, only the forester and the support remained. And new young players came to all carry roles.
Hanwha Life Esports roster at LCK:
- DuDu is top lane.
- Willer is a forest.
- Karis - mid lane.
- SamD is a bot lane.
- Vsta - support.
Nongshim RedForce uniform
Last year they rebranded into NS RedForce and from that moment on, things went very well for the team. Without changes in the composition, they consistently occupied the 2nd - 6th places in Korea.
However, for this split, they completely changed their roster. In it we will see as many as two former T1 players, a player from DWG KIA, Gen.G and Afreeca Freecs. Apparently, the organization is serious about this season, because it cost them a pretty penny to sign contracts with such players.
Very experienced players. Very strong players in terms of personal performance.
The only negative is that they have been training with such a composition for just over a month.
Nongshim RedForce LCK roster:
- Canna is top lane.
- Dread is a forest.
- Bdd - mid lane.
- Ghost is a bot lane.
- Effort - support.
Meeting history
Both organizations have fought for promotion 6 times in different LCK splits. Hanwha Life Esports won 5 out of 6 meetings. But do not rush to conclusions, because now the teams have literally been reborn.
Result of the match
As much as I hate to believe that HLE will continue to increase its winrate against NS. But now the second roster looks incredibly formidable. And the decision to put new players in all carry roles, including mid, from HLE seems to me not the most rational.
Here I would bet on a landslide victory for Nongshim RedForce.
