WBG vs LNG – LPL Summer Playoffs Preview

Both WBG and LNG have had a strong summer split and are eyeing a spot at Worlds 2024. However, with only four slots available and six teams vying for them, the competition is fierce. Teams like BLG and TES have been performing exceptionally well, raising the stakes even higher. Let’s dive into who has the edge in this upcoming matchup.

Series Breakdown

WBG has made significant roster upgrades with the addition of Tarzan and Breathe. Tarzan’s performance has been crucial for the team, but there is a vulnerability when he is heavily countered. Xiaohu’s impact on marksmen champions has also been inconsistent, which could pose a challenge in a Best of 5 series.

LNG struggles with mid-late game macro and teamfighting decisions. Despite grabbing leads against TES, they faltered as the games progressed. Draft adaptation issues also hindered their performance, leading to a significant defeat. However, LNG’s potential appears promising and their adaptability to the meta gives them an edge.

Between the two teams, LNG seems to have a slight advantage due to their meta-conscious gameplay. While both teams excel in specific roles, LNG’s overall approach makes them a more convincing contender in this matchup.
