Recent head to head: Bilibili Gaming Team edging it
This will be the first time these teams meet on the international stage. They haven’t played against each other before.
Players to watch: Elk and Supa
If you’re planning to make LoL betting picks, it’s worth paying attention to Elk and Supa. These bot laners are important parts of their teams’ strategies and often have a significant impact on the course of the game.
Elk is known for his steady and reliable play. He reads the lane well, usually positions carefully, and consistently contributes high damage to his team. That makes him a valuable player the team can rely on in key moments.
Supa also plays a crucial role. His team builds their strategy around him, giving him space and resources. His ability to turn that advantage into results helps control important fights and often determines the outcome of a match.
Predicted result of the match
Here we are at the end of our analysis, so let’s sum things up and try to choose a winner for this match. Every team at this tournament undoubtedly deserves to be here, but the level of play can still vary quite a lot between regions.
My LoL betting prediction: a win for Bilibili Gaming.
By all metrics, Bilibili Gaming are clearly stronger both as a team and in terms of individual player skill. Looking back at the MSI 2025 Play-In Stage, where BLG didn’t drop a single map in two matches against G2 Esports and GAM Esports, it’s immediately clear that MKOI have very slim chances - if any at all. MKOI weren’t considered favorites even in their own region (LEC), and you could say this is their first tournament of this scale. So I think the choice is obvious.
