Match Prediction: KT Rolster - DAMWON Gaming | LoL
LCK Spring 2022 - Group StageI welcome everyone again to the predictions of the Korean split LCK Spring 2022. In the final match of the second day, we will see the former world champions and the last champions from Korea - DWG KIA. Their rivals will be the outsider team of recent years - KT Rolster.
Both teams have renewed and only strengthened their rosters. To be honest, I can't wait to watch this match!
KT Rolster Form
The esports organization KT Rolster was very cool in the old days. From 2013 to 2018, all participants in the professional Korean League had to reckon with them. But lately they have not been able to achieve the desired results, which is why they often experiment with their roster. Last year, they only appeared on LCK, where they finished in 7th place twice (out of 10 possible).
This year's annual reshuffle hooked KT pretty hard. And now we have two strong players from Gen.G in the top lane and support and one from T1 in the jungle. A relatively mediocre mid laner with 2 years of experience from Japanese teams. And the same shooter, but with which KT have already played in 2019 - 2020.
KT Rolster roster at LCK:
- Rascal is top lane.
- Cuzz is a forest.
- Aria - mid lane.
- Aiming - bot lane.
- Life - support.
DWG KIA Form
But I like the situation with the reshuffle in the team of ex-world champions much more than in all other teams.
Changing players frequently is a normal practice in esports. Moreover, after DWG was unable to take the victory at Worlds 2021 and gave it to the Chinese.
But in turn, DWG KIA approached the renewal of the roster with a head: they left two, in my opinion, the most important roles in the team and replaced the rest.
Thus, the champion DWG was left with a forester Canyon and just a mid-lane car, which everyone calls the "new Faker" ShowMaker. And the two roles with the greatest influence on the course of the game remained with proven players.
The new top laner from the T1 academy and Gen.G. And, also, already played a couple on the botlane from NS Redforce.
DWG KIA roster at LCK:
- Burdol is top lane.
- Canyon is a forest.
- ShowMaker - mid lane.
- deokdam - bot lane.
- Kellin - support.
Meeting history
Prior to this game, the teams played 13 times against each other, mostly in different LCK splits over the years. At the same time, KT Rolster were able to snatch only 2 victories in 13 matches from DWG KIA.
Outcome
It is clearly not worth underestimating the new roster of KT Rolster, I am sure they will still show themselves at this tournament. But as I noticed when analyzing DWG KIA, they approached the renewal of their forces extremely rationally.
The current DWG roster, in my opinion, is a favorite not only in this confrontation, but also a good contender for a new championship, if the players have time to play properly.
Here I support DWG KIA with all my hands and propose to bet on their victory for now. There is a high probability of 2: 0 in their favor, but I do not want to risk it, because this will only be their debut.
