ThunderTalk Gaming have been pretty inconsistent this split. They are 1-4 after three weeks of play with a 4-9 map record, but to make matters worse, they’re the only team so far to lose to Rare Atom.
Anyone’s Legend are 4-2 with defeats against Bilibili Gaming and Team WE and wins over LGD Gaming, FunPlus Phoenix, Ultra Prime, and Oh My God. Even though AL have yet to defeat a good team, they’ve shown good performances and look like a solid mid-table team.
Their true test will come after this week when they face tougher squads. But even if AL fall apart against LPL’s top dogs, they have proved to be a tier above the bottom teams.
ThunderTalk have had their moments, but that is not a good reason to take their side against Anyone’s Legend, who are one of the most consistent performers of LPL 2024 Spring.

Rare Atom have been a complete disaster this split and are one of the prime candidates to collect the LPL’s wooden spoon. The pre-season expectations weren’t high, and they have yet to prove anyone wrong; however, Rare Atom managed to defeat ThunderTalk Gaming on Sunday, which has bumped them up a bit in the public eye.
One victory against another bottom-tier team doesn’t prove much, however. Rare Atom are still fundamentally flawed, with some of the worst performance metrics in early, mid, and late game.
Oh My God have looked far from excellent over the first three weeks of the split but have been playing better than the initial low expectations. They lost a close three-map series against Anyone’s Legend on Sunday and haven’t found much success against stronger teams.
Still, OMG, unlike Rare Atom, have a mid-table team pulse. The favourites should win this one comfortably.

Ninjas in Pyjamas are fresh off a worrying 2-1 victory against Ultra Prime, but that match happened after the Lunar New Year break, which played a role in UP finding the right strategy to do some damage.
One shaky game isn’t a reason for concern, especially with Ninjas in Pyjamas, who are the type of team that will run over any squad that can’t match their strong laners. One such example is EDward Gaming.
Three weeks into LPL 2024 Spring, EDward Gaming have yet to win a series, and unless they figure something out, they won’t see much success this season. Losing support Tian “Meiko” Ye has now proven to be a catalyst of this team’s downfall, although EDward Gaming have far more issues than just a lack of solid leadership.
The kill handicap for this match is set pretty high at 9.5, and even though NiP may run EDG over and close out the maps with double-digit leads, under 25.5 kills for both maps is a more reasonable choice.
