Hello again is I CTRL ULT ELITE back with another article! For those who do not know me, my name is Storm or CTRL ULT ELITE. I will be the main writer for BOL Emerald and am the Top laner this year for Tilt Esports. I have been writing for BOL for several years. I have also written content for The Nameless League, CCS and Aegis, and I have published some Fantasy Hockey and Yugioh articles in the past. If you have any feedback regarding my content, let me know! I am always happy to hear from people.
Please note that this Tier list was my thoughts on every team heading into the Season not how I would rank every team now. Left to right does matter(TILT is the worst S tier team).
Noxus
The Average ELO of Noxus is Platinum 1 or 16 per team, which is the group with the lowest average ELO. The Noxus Disvion is filled with newcomers and developmental rosters striving for success. There are plenty of new players in this division! I will be honest I think the Noxus group is easily the worst group I have covered with only 2 teams that I think have a hope of making it past the first round of playoffs.Â
Final Boss Rebirth
Top: Seaboyer#NA1Jungle: Big Rev#BOSS
Mid: Chinese Spy#NA1ADC: Fox Patronus#NA1Support: The Sploinker#Lili
Point Total: 21(Emearld 4 Average)Â
Tier: C
While Final Boss Rebirth is doing well sitting at 2-0 in their group I have them in my C tier as I do not think that this roster is going to do well in playoffs. Final Boss has dropped games to teams that I believe are in the bottom third of power level in BOL and have a lot of weaknesses on their roster. Rebirth does have a tremendous late game as they draft and play towards back to front team fights so I would not be surprised to see them make it out of this group.
Seaboyer is a diamond top laner looking to fight in the side lanes playing lots of Garen Mordekiaser and Volibear. Garen is their preferred pick they play around half their games on the Demacaian spin to win fanatic every season. While they do have good stats having some nice gold at 15 advantages I worry if this playstyle will fit this team as the rest of the team looks to be playing scaling late game teamfight champions.
 Big Rev has been stuck in the depths of platinum all season and it looks like they might even demote to gold. There is going to be a lot riding on their performance on this Rebirth team. Big Rev looks to be the main engage and tank player on this team as this is the way they play in solo queue. Big Rev has low farming numbers(around 5.5 a minute), dies 6.5 times a game on average and plays completely towards team fights I think aggressive junglers will abuse Big Rev.Â
Chinese Spy is the only player on this Rebirth roster that I recognize from my time in amateur. They are back to the mid lane after having fun for a year playing split push top lane champions. Chinese Spy is all about burst mages and CC think Annie and Viktor. I have a few worries for them as a lot of their style of champions have fallen out of the meta and they have spent the past 2 seasons not playing a lot of mid lane. Â
Fox Patronus is a top laner who swapped to being an ADC this split. As a top laner Fox Patronus was incredibly aggressive and continued this to their bot lane play. Fox Patronus coin flips and you can see it in their match history. Fox Patronus is either a teamfight god or an anti KDA player. Fox Patronus is playing mostly Kai’Sa and Jinx in solo queue as well as Varus. While they are farming well Fox Patronus dies a lot more than you want to see. Â
The Sploinker looks to be an incredible support who should synergize well with Fox Patronus. The Sploinker has a very wide support champion pool but plays towards champions that allow your ADC to be aggressive like Zilean, Braum and Rakkan. The Sploinker has great solo queue stats; they have a 2.6 vision score, get almost 15 assists a game on average and have above a 55% KP on all the supports that they play. Â
Final Boss Alpha
Top: Maldy4#NA1Jungle: Zetta#NA1Mid:Doctor Shrouds#docADC: LIMBLESS FREAK#GLIDESupport: Spicy Tuna Fish#1805
Point Total: 15(Platinum 2 Average)Â
Tier: D
While Final Boss Alpha does have a roster built for Fearless this team has some glaring issues. It is a really bad sign when the highest-rated player on your team according to the BOL stats has been moved to be a substitute after being the best player on your roster last year. Final Boss Alpha features 2 players returning from last season's team that won their Division and then got swept by a 4th seed in playoffs. I think that Final Boss Alpha while having a good bot lane has a weak top side of the map and have not won series convincingly against teams I believe are non-contenders so they are in my D tier.Â
Maldy4 is a gold player who reached Emerald last season and is truly grinding it out with 500 games of solo queue this year. They are currently sitting at the bottom of platinum with a slightly negative win rate. Maldy4 has good farming stats they are around 7.5 CS a minute while mostly playing tanks, has a 2.5 KDA, and does 750 DPM, which is respectable. The problem is that Maldy4 has some truly awful vision score(in their last 15 ranked games they never bought a pink ward) and that Maldy4 is not grouping with their team. Maldy4 has meager kill participation numbers like 35% and it dips down to below 30% even on some of their main picks. So far in BOL Maldy4 has been playing as a strong side carry instead of a tank and so far its working Maldy4 has a 4.89 KDA and is farming 8 CS a minute. Will this continue to work when Maldy4 plays better top laners? I doubt it.
Zetta is another solo queue warrior with over 700 games this year and is also stuck at the bottom of platinum for the past 150 games. Zetta is a returning member from the Final Boss Roster that played last season in BOL Emerald. Zetta is another warrior solo queue warrior who plays much towards cheese junglers Shaco and Nunu is by far their most played champions every split with high ganks numbers and first blood percentage and terrible farming stats(5.5 CS a minutes). Zetta is playing as the tank for this Alpha roster with games on Amumu Maokai and other low-economy junglers. With over 700 games of jungle this year expect Zetta to pull out some weird jungle champions like the Taric and Sion that they have already shown. I worry a lot for Zetta as they are playing almost the complete polar opposite playstyle that they use in solo queue combined with their average deaths a game being over 7. We saw these trends last year in BOL Emerlad Zetta had 5.8 CS a minute, and led all starting junglers in the league in deaths a game at 5.8 and on average never had a gold lead at any point in the game. I think its easy to say that Zetta does not look like an all star jungler. Â
Doctor Shrouds I recognized from last season in Aegis where they played for The Shadow Cows. In Aegis Doctor Shrouds had a 3.0 KDA playing in 5 games doing 580 DPM and farming 8 CS a minute while paying a different champion every game. Doctor Shrouds peak rank is platinum two and they finish most seasons towards high gold and look to be ending this split in low gold. Doctor Shrouds in solo queue is a generalist playing a lot of different mid-laners, having played 17 champions in 90 games and not playing any mid-laner for more than ten games. Doctor Shrouds has decent stats they farm 6.7 CS a minute, and havs above a 3.0 KDA on most champions they play. I generally do not think that Doctor Shrouds should be playing in Emerald Leagues as they do not have the time invested into the game to pick up on the niche mechanics this game requires making misplays that I do not often see in our ELO.
LIMBLESS FREAK is easily the best looking player on this Alpha roster with impressive KDAs in solo queue and an incredibly wide champion pool that also allows for mage flexes as well as every type of ADC. LIMBLESS FREAK does not just play hyper-carriers(although it is their preference) but also utility ADCs like Ashe and Jihn as well as lane bullies like Cait and Samira. LIMBLESS FREAK does have a weakness they are not farming that great their CS is 6.9 a game on average and is doing 778 DPM which is good but not a standout. The best part of LIMBLESS FREAK other than their champion pool is that they play safely dying less than 4 times a game on average. I am unsure how well LIMBLESS FREAK is going to synergize with Spicy Tuna Fish however as LIMBLESS FREAK looks to play much more towards scaling.Â
Spicy Tuna Fish is the only other player returning from last year's Final Boss Roster. Last year Spicy Tuna Fish was a good support they were 8th in the league at vision score a minute had a 71% KP and a 3.8 KDA. Spicy Tuna Fish is the only player on this Alpha roster with a really shallow champion pool.Spicy Tuna Fish has played Nautilus and Rakkan for 82% of their games and have played only 7 supports this season and does not have a non-engagement support over mastery 7. As an engage specialist I think it should be fairly easy to draft against them.  Â

Syndicate Crashouts
Top: NitroDax5#NA1Jungle: Maxim#banksMid: Zuiy#NA1ADC: WellShowThemAll#NA1Support: Frozen Spuds#spuds
Point Total: 32 (Emearld 2 Average)Â
Tier: A
Syndicate Crashouts are one of the two teams that I hope for from the Noxus Division. A team built on how well can we out lane our opponents is how I would describe this Crashouts Roster which features veteran players like Zuiy and WellShowThemAll. My worry for Syndicate and why they are not in my S tier is this is a team of too many chefs and not enough cooks. Every single player on this Syndicate roster other than Spuds is a carry player who needs draft resources and gold to show off their skills properly. I have no idea who on this team is going to play engage and frontline we cannot have 4 players in the side lane. The flip side is that Syndicate has 4 amazing players who can carry and I predict will absolutely dumpster weaker teams. With a gold lead you effectively have tank stats so you don’t need a frontline you just need to be coordinated.  Â
NitroDax5 is best described as a lone wolf a Top laner who wishes that the lane was a true 1v1 for 10 minutes with no outside help allowed. NitroDax5 gets a kill in 80% of their games by 5 minutes and does 866 DPM they are looking for a top gap on fighters like Mordekiaser, Volibear and Darius. NitroDax5 also falls into the traps of this playstyle they ward unoften and in substandard places, never buys pink wards, dies often to jungle ganks and instead of farming camps looks for fights. NitroDax5 has just 6.4 CS a minute and a 1.8 KDA they get as many deaths as they do kills and very few assists. NitroDax5 is a double-edged sword NitroDax5 is either going to be the best player on the rift like they were in week 1 dumpstering Rutledge or looks completely mediocre like on Garen where NitroDax5 had 0.5 KDA with 0 assists.
   Maxim is a jungler who plays as much ADC as they do jungle in solo queue. In solo queue Maxim plays more carry style junglers Bel’Veth is by far their most-played jungle champion for the past couple of years. So far on Syndicate Maxim has been playing more as the teams engage and frontline but their best individual game was on Wukong. I worry for Syndicate as I think Maxim has drawn the short straw of your the tank player buddy something Maxim is not nearly as proficient at compared to carry picks.
Zuiy is one of my former teammates who is a lane-dominant player. Zuiy wants to play aggressive champions like Yone, Akshan and Talyiah looking for solo kills and the ability to turn around games with game-warping plays. In Aegis Zuiy had a 3.55 KDA, ended lanes with a 300 gold advantage on average and had 7.9(9th in the league) CS a minute and was one of 3 players to get a Penta Kill. Zuiy from when I played with them was someone wanting to link up and make plays with our jungler as much as possible. Zuiy does play some control mages like Hwei and Syndra as backups and has played over 20 champions this season in mid lane so maybe dont try and 5 ban them like TFF did. Here is a Poem to describe Zuiy(thanks CHAT GPT!)Zuiy dashes in with Yone's might, Sword in hand, a fearsome sight. Akshan swings from line to line, But with mages, he’s less divine. He tries to cast, but spells go wide, "Just not my thing!" Zuiy sighed. Blades and hooks, that’s where he shines, Leave the magic to other minds!
WellShowThemAll AKA Jake AKA fuck it lock Aphelios I don’t care is the ADC of Syndicate and another former teammate of mine when I played on ID Ignite last season. WellShowThemAll finished Aegis with a 3.79 KDA, getting 6.6 kills a game(6th in AEL) doing 790 DPM, and left lane with a 600 gold lead on average(top 5 in AEL). WellShowThemAll plays ADC aggressively often yelling at his support to go in and flashing in himself sometimes. WellShowThemAll does 900 DPM in solo queue has 8 kills a game on average but also dies 6 times a game giving them a 2.2 KDA. WellShowThemAll is a vocal player who wants ganks in his lane and to carry. Â
Frozen Spuds has mained quite a few roles over the years. Frozen Spuds has been a support main for the past 2 years was an ADC main before that and even had a season as a jungler. Support has agreed with Spuds the most and they have climbed from being a mostly silver and gold player up to Emearld in the past couple of seasons. As a support player Frozen Spuds plays more towards engage with their top 5 picks all being engage tanks. Frozen Spuds has played 40 different support this year and has games on everything so they can play whatever Syndicate needs. With this whole team wanting resources I think Frozen Spuds is going to be playing these engage champions to give them team a way to set up dives and close out games. Frozen Spuds does not have the greatest warding score but has a near 3.0 KDA getting over 12 assists a game with great win rates.      Â
Dynasty Star Weavers
Top: Tommy Buckets#TOMJungle: j0rdynn#jojoMid: Aqua#ratADC: Dolen#UMLSupport: DarkWing Duck#DarkW
Point Total: 25 (Emerald 3 Average)Â
Tier: C
Dynasty Star Weavers to me looks like a 1st round playoff team. The Star Weavers have no real star power on their roster, some mis matched play styles and some suspect champion pools but have a group of solid players overall. The Star Weavers seem to be stuck in two different directions getting pulled back and forth from a team that is looking for late game team fights and a team wanting to play for early game. While leardy being 1-2 in this Divsion Star needs to find a working playstlye fast. I am putting them in my C tier as I think they will be battling for a 4th seed in this division and I think they are going to get rocked in playoffs.Â
Tommy Buckets is a top laner with a versatile champion pool but looks to be more at home on picks that are side lane threats like Mordekiaser and Garen. Tommy does also have some tanks in their champion pool the most interesting being Maokai Top. Tommy looks best in the laning phase in solo queue not dying to ganks pre 15 minutes normally a wave lead and wins duels. Tommy does focus more or farming they have less solo kills in solo queue but are close to 8 CS a minute and have a 3.6 KDA. For the Starweavers Tommy has played whatever the team needs being the split push threat in some games and in others has been the weakside tank. Tommy is currently rated low in the league and I think they will bounce back being at the very least a top 10 top laner.
J0rdynn the Jungler for Star is an aggressive more carry oretinated jungler who is most at home when playing AD invade picks like Kindred. J0rdynn to me looks like a Chris lite they have the same sort of aggressive playstyle that is focused greatly towards 5 distinct champions. J0rdynn has not been great in solo queue this split with a 44% winrate and a 2.8 KDA that is being dragged down from their performances on AP junglers where J0rdynn has a 35% winrate on despite having played these picks for over 25 games. So far in BOL J0rdynn has mostly played towards aggressive AD fighters that are a sudo frontline mostly Xin Zhao and Viego. J0rdynn has not been gerat so far this split they have a 2.6 KD and some bad combat numbers.
Aqua looks to be an ADC who transferred into the mid lane. I kind of worry about Aqua they do not look to have a strong champion pool in the mid lane with the removal of so many ADC mids. Aqua is primarily an Ahri player and plays a lot more Skirmish focused mids rather that tardiotnal control mages. Aqua however plays more like a control mage player they focus on farm leads in solo queue, and consistent damage instead of all ins. Aqua in the 4 games that they have played this BOL season has looked bad with a 1.9 KDA, being down 2k gold on average and 480 DPM despite having an average game time of 40 minutes.Â
Dolen is an ADC who prefers to play for the late game on picks like Jinx, Kai’Sa and Zeri. Dolen has good farm numbers of 7.5 CS a minute and a 3.1 KDA while doing 770 DPM in solo queue. Dolen also has the ability to play mages like Seraphine and Ziggs giving Star some flexibility. I just want to see more from Dolen your team is making it to late game trust yourself take Jinx and carry fights stop playing Seraphine.
DarkWing Duck again is another good looking player who does not look like they belong on this Star team. DarkWing Duck is a bloodthirsty support player who enjoys engage champions like Rakan, Leona and Nautlius. DarkWing Duck should be trying to play with J0rdynn’s more aggressive jungle champions whenever possible and instead seems to be stuck bot lane with a Serpahine. DarkWing Duck I think has to take control of this Star team and decide where this team is going. DarkWing Duck does not do the things a traddiotnal support does great they have a low vision score, and no not make as much money as other supports but DarkWing Duck can make ganks and plays happen.Â
XG Ratatoskr
Top: Spoobert#XG1Jungle: Kazz#77777Mid: OTF27#NA1ADC: mei#0504Support: McFeeds#FF15
Point Total: 24(Emerald 3 Average)
Tier: A
XG Ratatoskr are probably going to be the first seed coming out of Noxus with their win over Syndicate. XG has a team full of veteran players but players that I have seen falter instead of flourish. XG in my mind makes the top 8 of BOL almost every time but I do not think they are a championship level roster so they go in my A tier.
Spoobert is a top laner who plays all those things you hate to play agaisnt. Maining Udyr and Gragas top with secondaries of Aatrox, Renekton and Volibear. Throw in a pocket pick Teemo and Inting style Sion you get how Spoobert plays. Spoobert plays well for his lane advantages and snowballs them getting more CS and looking to contest everything that he can. Spoobert has a bad KDA in solo queue of 1.8 but 7 CS a minute and 800 DPM. Spoobert has looked awesome so far in BOL with a 6.10 KDA and 4 different champion picks across his 4 games while drawing bans every game.
Kazz is the only player from XG that I do not personally recgozine. Kazz is more of an ADC and support player who has played 1 season before as a jungle main and has recently swapped back to the jungle. Kazz has very few games of jungle this season in ranked and looks to have a very shallow jungle pool of 4 champions. Kazz is also the lowest ranked player on this team having the least solo queue games played. Fearless might be an issue for Kazz.
OTF27 is another played I know from last Aegis splits disastrous Conduit team. In Aegis OTF27 had a 1.3 KDA winning just 1 game of 8 that they played. OTF27 has a very aggressive playstlye in solo queue playing assassins and melee fighters going more for solo kills. OTF27 has a huge champion pool(over 27 picks this year) as well and I think will be one of the best mid laners in BOL. OTF27 can play control mages as well as more traditional wave clear and has a lot of ad options and flex picks.
Mei is a yapper in general chat and looks to finally be having a good season in a league that I am actually covering. Fearless worries me for Mei as I feel and the stats show that Mei plays very few champions with any sort of regularity. When Mei is not playing one of their primary picks their stats plummet. Mei has been playing a lot of off role mid this season hopefully they can work some AP picks into their champion pool.
McFeeds looks to be awesome support for XG having a 2.24 vision score, high KP numbers(55% and up) while applying some flexible supports and a wide variety of picks. McFeeds has played 4 different supports this year so far for XG looking good on almost everything(we wont talk about the Leona).Â
Maelstrom Esports
Top: SaintofAegis#SaintJungle: Sovergn#NA1Mid: Erza#WaifuADC: Sinful#11BSupport: Daigen#NA1
Point Total: 4 (Platinum 3 Average)Â
Tier: D
Maelstrom Esports is a team of players looking to find their glory. Every player on this Maelstrom Esports team is currently floundering in ranked being low platinum and are having issues finding a Jungler so they are in the D tier. I am almost certain that Maelstrom is the worst team in BOL Emerald this season and I don’t know if this team would even be competitive in BOL Plat. I do not have anything nice to say about Maelstrom if this team wins a series it is by the grace of God or some other divine intervention.   Â
SaintOfAegis looks like they might demote to gold having a gold 2 MMR and is stuck at plat 4 0 LP after finishing the last split in Diamond 4. They look like a pretty terrible tilt queuer as SaintOfAegis did the same thing in split 1 of season 13 getting to D4 and finishing the season at plat 4 0 LP. SaintOfAegis has a 1.5 KDA this year in the top lane having more deaths than kills on average. SaintOfAegis is playing for the side lane only they are farming well with a 7.7 CS a minute score, 10k damage to towers a game and get first blood early. SaintOfAegis also has the worst vision score I have seen of every player top laner I have looked at and dies a truly incredible amount(over 8 deaths a game in their past 20 games in ranked) and is leading BOL Emearld in deaths a game currently with 6.5 deaths a game.Â
Maelstrom is looking for a new jungler it seems as Sovergn left the team and Bixus is getting moved to being a sub.Â
Erza the mid laner for Maelstrom has red flags galore. Erza is another player with terrible KDA values having a 1.6 KDA on average and having 9 deaths a game on their 2 most played champion this year. Erza dies twice to ganks on average in the first 15 minutes of the game and has around a 40% KP as a mid-laner. Erza also has barely touched ranked in the past month having 12 games and in those 12 games has below a 1.0 KDA. Erza farms 6.8 CS a minute and does 800 DPM. Â
An ADC who farms 6.1 CS a minute is doing 780 DPM with almost 7 deaths a game is Sinful. Sinful has the best KDA on this team in solo queue with a 2.4(which sucks). Sinful also somehow has a small champion pool as an ADC they play 4 ADCs and Seraphine with any sort of regularity they look like a MF and Kai’Sa two trick. Sinful is currently rated the worst starting player in the league with a 1.39 KDA and only doing 504 DPM. Sinful is down in gold at 15 on every champion they play in solo queue and belongs in BOL platinum as they have never made it to Emerald.
 Daigen is another weak link at support. Daigen wards poorly having a 2.0 vision score despite maining Zyra(who give free vision with plants) plays the Parasite frequently and dies over 6 times a game having a 2.3 KDA in ranked. Daigen has plaed over 25 champion as a support this year so farless should be no issue for them.Â
TFF Aftershock
Top: Rutledge#OSUJungle: CocoPuffs#069Mid: NoNaMe#NA92ADC: Keorra#OwOSupport: Cheongseolmo#BDB
Point Total: 28(Emerald 3 Average)Â
Tier: B
Â
I have so many questions about this TFF roster but again as most Rutledge teams are the team has such a high potential upside that I cannot put them lower then my B tier. TFF especially in Noxus should make it out of groups with no issue but I again worry for them. Rutledge has this habit of building teams where he and one other player look incredible and the rest of the team are forced to a low ecconomy style of play to support the superstars where they appear useless. TFF again has some crazy highs an up and coming mid laner who is climbing at a steady rate, an All star ADC, Rutledge with the shotcalling and an aggressive farming jungler. God knows where this roster ends the season but it will be entertaining to see how they get there.Â
Rutledge is top lane for this TFF team. Rutledge has been an All Pro/MVP in almost every league that I have covered and has played in every league that I have heard of and quite a few that I have not. Why Rutledge is playing top lane for TFF I have no clue. Rutledge has always played more unique champions in solo queue in mid lane its Velzkoz and Ekko and in the top lane expect lots of Kled and Gnar. Is Rutledge going to be the best top laner in BOL? I doubt it that Olaf game was not it.
CocoPuffs is a jungler who off roles as an ADC. With 300 games as a jungler this year CocoPuffs has played a ton of picks but most of their games have been on Veigo. CocoPuffs plays mostly towards junglers who clear at a rapid pace and has a 2.2 KDA with 6 CS a minute and thats how they played in their 1 game we have seen from TFF.Â
NoNaMe is new to Emearld at least under this name reaching past platinum for the first time this split while having a 60% winrate in solo queue. NoNaMe has played ADC with a couple of different Mid laners as their mains throughout the years and has finally swapped to mid lane as their primary role. NoNaMeplays more as a control mages player looking to scale on picks like Veigar, Viktor and Syndra. With ADCs falling out of favor I doubt we will see NoNaMe pick many but that should always remain an option for TFF. NoNaMe has a slower start in solo queue but grows into a threat as the game progresses with a solid 7.0 CS a minute and a 2.9 KDA. Â
Keorra was the ADC last season for Spider Bite Esports in Aegis where they had a great individual season. In Aegis Keorra went 4-6 with a 3.09 KDA and dealt 900 DPM while having 9 CS a minute. Keorra was the hard carry for SBET playing lots of Zeri, Ezreal and Cait. Keorra is currently one of the highest rated solo queue player in BOL having graduated and sitting at diamond 3. Keorra plays a lot towards more lane dominant characters like Cait Ezreal and MF but has also plays more team oriented picked like Seraphine and Jihn as well as a couple of mages. Keorra if last season was any indication should be awesome for TFF.
Cheongseolmo I know from Aegis and some other league where they have played. Cheongseolmo in Aegis had an okay season on The Shattered Spire with a 2.0 KDA while going 4-7. Cheongseolmo I am unsure of taking in Fearless as they are primarily a Bard 1 trick as a support and have swapped to support after being a lilia 1 trick in the jungle. While not playing Bard Cheongseolmo plays a lot of Nautlius and then is drawn to more unique supports like Senna, the Parasite and Blitzcrank. I have no real read on Cheongseolmo they play a lot of supports as a 1 offs have a good vision score of 2.28 and die a lot.Â
PredictionsÂ
Demacia
Niners Esports Black Vs. No Quarter Gaming:
My Prediction: 2-0 No Quarter Gaming
Espada Prediction: 2-1 No Quarter Gaming
Both these teams heading into tonight are struggling and this series should be close overall. I favor No Quarter gaming however as they match up really well as a team again the Niners. Niners Epsorts are a team that are all about late game trying to scale and force as much gold as possible onto their carries. No Qurater Gaming is trying to spike in the mid game as hard as possible and should be able to force the Niners to make uncomfortable decisions that will result in NQG building a huge lead and getting Baron.
The Spire Cats Vs. Fool’s Five
My Prediction: 2-1 Spire Cats
Espada Prediction: 2-0 Spire Cats
Fools Five is at least looking at roster moves trying to find a new player to shake this team up. Someone elese besides Solo Mason must be able to step up and give this team the wins that Solo Mason deserves. The Spire Cats have looked solid so far this year and I think they have the consistency and ability with CC and drafts to take down the 1 man show that is Fools Five.
The Shattered Spire Vs. AK Hearts
My Prediction: 2-1 Ak Hearts
Espada Prediction: 2-1 Shattered SpireÂ
These are the 2 best teams in Demacia and they are playing for first in this group. AK Hearts did drop a game last week thanks to a really terrible draft in game 2 but the ceiling on this team I believe is much higher then that of The Shattered Spire. The Shattered Spire as a team lacks a lot of agency in the early game something that AK Hearts play a lot towards with the aggressive early invade champions of XSoccer25X. I think that this series goes to 3 games almost no matter what and when that happens AK Hearts should be at an advantage with their deeper champion pools.
Noxus
Dynasty Star Weavers Vs. Final Boss Rebirth
My Prediction: 2-1 Star Weavers
Espada Prediction: 2-1 Rebirth
 Â
Rebirth dropped a game to Malestrom dropping my opinion of them by a lot. If the Star Weavers can figure out their team identity they have such an easy time making playoffs but this game is the test. If Star cannot win tonight against Rebirth they need to do some serious soul searching. Rebirth hace some serious weaknesses that I need you guys to exploit to show me that you can be a legitimate playoff team.
TFF Aftershock Vs. Maelstrom Esports
My Prediction: 2-0 TFF
Espada Prediction:Â 2-0 TFF
As Espada said if TFF does not win tonight with a 2-0 they have failed themsvles. Maelstrom as a team floundering trying to find a starting jungler and has most of their lanes absolutely free falling in their recent solo queue games. TFF I have questions about as well but a victory with good drafts silences most of them.
XGÂ Ratatoskr Vs. Final Boss Alpha
My Prediction: 2-0 XG
Espada Prediction: 2-0 XG
After looking at Final Boss Alpha that team is only winning games where LIMBLESSFREAK gets going. Mei plays so many champions that absorb pressure that there is no way that Alpha will get enough of a lead in the only lane I think they can play through.
Ionia
OE Enigma Vs. Monkeys Fever
My Prediction: 2-0 OE Enigma
Espada Prediction: 2-1 MKY Fever
Last week needs to be the wakeup call for OE. It is sad to say but you are in the group of Death and if you go 0-3 you are probaly not making it out. OE has way too much going for them to not win this series with how talented their solo lanes are and the flexibility that they have in draft. With All Gucci returning you have a stable bot lane now and can play more of a back to front style that should do wonders. Scrim Bucks went hard and I watched Fever turn into a pinball machine and shut down they were so tilted surrendering in a scrim. I have said I really do not believe in the Fever botlane either and with both teams playing in a close series I think it will become apparent why. Saelor vs Chris is where all eyes should be as both have been their teams MVPs.Â
Dorado Gaming Epsilon Vs. Omega Wooper
My Prediction: DOGE 2-0
Espada Prediction:Â DOGE 2-0
 I said in my breakdown article that I feel that Wooper is by far the worst team in the group of death. Wooper needs to step up I have been critical of Ishan and Gyser for a long time. Even with Mordstriech trying to defend you in my DMs I have no faith. DOGE is the team you need to beat and they live by their solo lanes even taking a game tonight gives me hope for Wooper in the future.Â
The Shadow Cows Vs. Conduit Gremilins
My Prediction: 2-1 Conduit
Espada Prediction: 2-0 Conduit
The Shadow Cows are massive undergods coming into this series after beating some really good teams based off of their insane laning strength and ability to close out games. The Shadow Cows I think will offer up a challenge for this roster as the Shadow Cows lane like much better than you would think they will. If LordiSama and Dj Zeller are stuck in an isolated 1v1 split push battle I think the rest of the map is in contention and with how much fighting the Shadow Cows do Conduit may drop a game as they are not given the space they are used to having.

Elysium on Ice Vs. TTM Aegaeon
My Prediction: 2-0 On Ice
Espada Prediction: 2-0 On IceÂ
Well last week I watched TTM flounder. Elysium is the last hope I have of our TILT team playing a good team in our group if they do not bring the pain to TTM I guess we have a free ride in our group. On Ice has the solo queue games to play way more picks than TTM can and should have a draft advantage in these games.Â
Elysian Thunder Raptors Vs. Clown Gaming Blood Moon
My Prediction: 2-0 Blood Moon
Espada Prediction: 2-1 Blood MoonÂ
Blood Moon has a real team together now and the Thunder Raptors have not looked like competitors.
Tilit Esports Vs. Mint Gaming Mafia
My Prediction: 2-0 TILT
Espada Prediction: 2-0 TILT
I am not here tonight(writing on my phone OP) so hopefully Tilt wins. Mint have looked really good at beating bad teams but got out laned by TTM in week 2. TILT destroyed TTM last week so that should show that this series should not be close.
