LGD GAMING vs TEAM WE LoL BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

Best Odds: LGD $2.82 at GG Bet | WE $1.41 at GG Bet
When: June 5, 2024 | 17:00 CST
Watch Live: Lolesports, Twitch

LGD Gaming finished League of Legends Pro League (LPL) 2024 Spring in 12th place with just six victories, but this number is a bit misleading. LGD performed well in the first half of the season and consistently put themselves in advantageous positions; the problem was they were extremely bad at converting that to positive results.

This roster severely underachieved, so it makes sense that LGD Gaming decided not to make any roster changes. Even though they won’t be competing for the title, they should be in the race for a spot in the playoffs if they find a way to convert their leads — which they had in 60% of their LPL 2024 Spring games at 20 minutes.

Team WE made some roster changes last month, targeting their bottom lane, which shouldn’t make WE significantly better or worse. So unless something goes terribly wrong, Team WE should remain a potent underdog with a limited ceiling.

There are reasons to have Team WE priced as favourites, including their strong showing against Royal Never Give Up on Sunday. But LGD Gaming are good enough to do some damage and force a close series.

EDWARD GAMING vs JD GAMING LoL BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

Best Odds: EDG $4.60 at GG Bet | JDG $1.18 at GG Bet
When: June 5, 2024 | 19:00 CST
Watch Live: Lolesports, Twitch

EDward Gaming’s decision to replace their support in LPL 2024 Spring didn’t work out, and they enter the second half of the season following another questionable move, having allowed top-laner Hu “Ale” Jia-Le to move to Anyone’s Legend. But they’ve also brought in some promising additions.

Rather than taking a gamble on unproven talent, EDward Gaming added mid-laner Yuan “Cryin” Cheng-Wei and support Zhang “Wink” Rui, who should introduce some stability and fix the gaping holes. Even with Wink and Cryin, this roster doesn’t scream LPL title contenders, but all five members are LPL calibre — which should help EDG reclaim their position as a solid mid-table team.

All that still might not be enough to defeat JD Gaming, who kept their roster intact and brought in head coach Chen “WarHorse” Ju-Chih. The former Flash Wolves and Top Esports tactician alone should help JD take a step forward, in which case we can start talking about LPL title ambitions and a deep run at the LoL World Championship.
