In this matchup, the first game looks set as a dominant win for Samsung White. They maintained strong performance without major mistakes. It seems unlikely they’ll lose Game 3 to TSM, but their overconfidence could be a weakness. The outcome is likely to be a close finish.
Result: 3-1 in favor of Samsung White.
They had solid picks and good teamwork, yet made a critical error against TSM. It’s probably not a thrilling victory for them.
Game 2: Samsung Blue faces Cloud 9. While Blue struggled in groups, their resilience shone through. Cloud 9 capitalized on some vulnerabilities, but they’re unlikely to win the full series.
Result: 3-1 for Samsung Blue.
Blue showed they can compete, but Cloud 9’s performance will decide the outcome.
Game 3: Star Horn Royal Club vs. EDG. The match is tight due to familiarity between teams. Royal Club has a slight edge thanks to their strong showing in Group B.
Result: 3-2 for Star Horn Royal Club.
Royal Club should hold on, but the competition was close.
Game 4: Najin White Shield vs. OMG. Comparing both groups, Najin’s team is expected to advance, while OMG faces challenges.
Result: 3-2 for Najin White Shield.
Najin looks to move forward, though they’ll need to overcome some weaknesses.
Looking ahead to the finals: Samsung White vs. Najin White Shield. Based on past results, Samsung White should prevail, but the series could change if other teams enter. What are your thoughts?
It's quite likely White Shield could face Royal Club in the semifinals. A loss would probably result in a tight 3-2 matchup.
I believe EDG will defeat Royal Club 3-2 based on recent form, they seem stronger than expected. Shield secured a 3-1 victory but will miss their opening match. I also think SSB is likely to lose their first game.
Mine: http://pickem.lolesports.com/#series/1/u...8/my-picks While I don't wish for SSW to win or any Korean squad this season, it feels highly improbable for TSM/C9 to claim victory. Still, my destiny remains tied to TSM and C9—I'm excited to see them in action!
I believe SSB should be able to reach the semifinals without any issues, and with a little luck, they could even make it to the finals. The gap between them and SSW isn't too big, so we'll have to wait and see. I had high hopes for fnatic to dominate the competition, but now I feel a bit let down.
