  • Mid: Finch (Goon Swarm Gaming) - Played well for his team vs UMAD

  • Support: xTitanx (Big Duck Entourage) - Despite being labeled the worst support by Decker and Vidyarthi, this individual showcased remarkable gameplay, posting impressive stats against a substitute but still formidable Gremlins team.


Playoff Prediction:

I'll admit I am not confidently predicting the Championship winner. Much of the outcome hinges on whether GVG can step up for his team and effectively neutralize the top-tier mid laners they'll be facing. BDE's adoption of a new exodia team composition has certainly bolstered their standing, potentially allowing them to disrupt the established order. Meanwhile, Agni Kai's recent roster adjustments have proven fruitful, showcasing their adaptability late in the season. Additionally, the emergence of this positive mental SGP team has shown it can be a formidable contender, and adds another layer of uncertainty to the tournament's prospects. Lets break down the matches for week one. Big Duck Entourage vs Subatomic Gaming Proton: BDE's jungler, lxtinction, while not holding the title of the league's best, is a consistent performer capable of making game-changing plays for his team. SingularBread, SGP's jungle, I expect to bring a more thought out game plan and be more impactful for his team. SGP's strength lies in their powerhouse bot lane, capable of exerting significant pressure when given the opportunity. Additionally AlfaiatE excels in the mid and late game. In contrast, BDE's mid laner typically plays an enabling role for his team, unless on one of their pocket ADC picks, where they transition into a hard carry. BDE's solo lanes aim to make a substantial impact in the early and mid-game phases. The match's outcome may heavily hinge on which team can propel their solo laners ahead. However, both teams are equally prone to losing leads, adding an element of unpredictability to the series. My assumption is that SGP will present a superior overall game plan and will also be more adept at playing from behind then BDE. SGP also has a more seasoned roster, while BDE has been pieced together with whatever mercenaries Outrage can dig up. All this considered I think that SGP will have an upper hand in the series and should be able to totally shutout BDE.


Agni Kai vs Goon Squad Gaming: Agni Kai has been diligently constructing a robust, cohesive roster. While acknowledging certain skill gaps and areas for improvement, it's undeniable that the team has developed a strong synergy among its members. Their ability to work cohesively and effectively focus on their win conditions is particularly noteworthy. Conversely, Goon Squad Gaming has encountered challenges throughout the season, barely securing a spot in the playoffs. While they possess talented players across the roster, they'll undoubtedly face a tough challenge against Agni Kai. To emerge victorious in the series, GSG must diligently strategize how to leverage their strengths effectively and overcome their opponents' formidable lineup.
