This is how we see the seeds panning out for the semi-finals: <\/p>\n
1. Flash Wolves (LMS)
\n2. Kingzone DragonX (LCK)
\n3. Fnatic (EU)
\n4. Royal Never Give Up (LPL)<\/p>\n
Fnatic vs. Kingzone DragonX<\/h2>\n
2am PST \/ 5am EST \/ 11am CEST <\/p>\n
Fnatic have grown over the span of the tournament, but have they come far enough to pose a serious challenge to Kingzone? KZ have multiple avenues to exploit FNC including Khan\u2019s split push, Peanut\u2019s early pressure and a botlane collapse. On the flip side, FNC must rely on the much-improved Caps during the early game and transition power to Rekkles in the late game. Such a strategy is very narrow for execution and is best imagined as walking a tightrope, with KZ firing on all cylinders during the performance. <\/p>\n
Prediction:<\/strong> Kingzone DragonX <\/p>\n 3am PST \/ 6am EST \/ 12pm CEST <\/p>\n RNG entered the Main Stage as one of the strongest teams, but now they look to have multiple weaknesses. Their fundamental strength has provided them victories up to this point, but it remains unclear whether they have sorted out their communication issues regarding tempo and rotations. Uzi may be doing his best to prevent the hemorrhaging for RNG, but through drafts, laning phase and general execution, RNG have much to be desired. EVOS have looked great in the early game, but have never converted leads or spiraled advantages of control. Every single EVOS has delivered relentless pressure early on, but they fall short of the rest when it comes to teamfighting and objective strategy.<\/p>\n Prediction:<\/strong> Royal Never Give Up <\/p>\n 4am PST \/ 7am EST \/ 1pm CEST <\/p>\n Considering their preliminary placement in this tournament<\/a>, one would not have expected Flash Wolves to be the dominant favorites in this clash. The Taiwanese bolters only have to play their game, as they have demonstrated that their basic play is already calibers above what Team Liquid usually bring to the table. TL have to find some kind of synchronization between their plays, as their playstyle is more reminiscent of solo queue than anything else. They seem to barely understand that tardiness to call out an MIA in time or being late to a rotation will spiral out of control, especially in an international setting. It is unfortunate that this realization comes as late as it does in this tournament. <\/p>\nEVOS Esports vs. Royal Never Give Up<\/h2>\n
