TEAM VITALITY vs LOS RATONES

Team Vitality had a slow start to the split, but have recently shown improvement, winning two of the last three games played. Last week, the Bees defeated Karmine Corp and GIANTX but ended up short against G2 Esports.

Los Ratones also went 2-1 in Week 3, beating Movistar KOI and G2 Esports before losing to Natus Vincere. Although a solid haul, LR’s style of play, consistently relying on scaling, is suboptimal.

Team Vitality have been improving their early game, and while their closing rate when ahead isn’t great, opting for an early-game composition could work wonders against LR.

KARMINE CORP BLUE vs GIANTX

The best LoL betting sites have GIANTX priced as -909.09 favorites to defeat Karmine Corp Blue, giving them a 90.1% implied probability of success.

This is a very high number, despite Karmine Corp Blue’s record this split. However, even though KCB have won just one game in the first three weeks of play, they have come close to beating stronger teams.

Being already eliminated from the playoff race, KC Blue also do not have more pressure on them, which could lead to a stronger showing on Sunday.

GIANTX look strong on paper, but they’ve not been very convincing. Meta suits GX, yet their decision-making is lacking, so it is not beyond the realms of possibility for Karmine Corp Blue to keep it close.

SK GAMING vs SHIFTERS

SK Gaming have one of the best early games in the league, averaging just under 1k gold lead at 20 minute mark. While that hasn’t earned them many wins, games in which SK ran away early ended in dominant victories.

For Shifters, the win condition is simple: slow the game down and prevent SK Gaming from playing their game early. This, however, is easier said than done.

Not only do Shifters struggle in the early game (-220 gold @ 20 minutes), but they are also in bad shape with a 1-5 record across Weeks 2-3. It’s hard to go against SK Gaming at -125 to win.

NATUS VINCERE vs MOVISTAR KOI

Natus Vincere have been strong out of the games, despite numerous roster changes. They are already guaranteed a top-eight finish, with just three defeats over the first three weeks of play.

Movistar KOI haven’t been as efficient; while they have won most of their matches, they have also had games where they underperformed. This is an elite team, but KOI are still searching for their rhythm and are prone to choking.

Movistar KOI are stronger on paper, but NAVI have looked better on the Summoner’s Rift.

TEAM HERETICS vs KARMINE CORP

Karmine Corp have been the best and most stable team of LEC Versus. They are very strong early and have shown solid macro play.

The current meta suits them on a champion basis, and it seems everything is falling into place for KC to challenge for the trophy.

Team Heretics have been holding on well. They are not great, but not terrible either – a mid-table team who do not have clear weaknesses or strengths.

While this opens up the possibility of Heretics stunning KC, Karmine Corp have been too efficient to fade them.

FNATIC vs G2 ESPORTS

The final match of LEC 2026 Versus is LEC’s El Clásico, as two long-time rivals clash for the first time this season.

Fnatic have formed their own, more controlled, style of play. They tend to opt for late-game scaling rather than early power, often finding themselves in a gold deficit; however, Fnatic are also very efficient in fighting back into the game.

G2 Esports have not been great. While that’s relative to the expectations, there is nothing exciting about G2 Esports and what they’ve produced this split.

As in the previous seasons, there’s a world where G2 Esports wake up at any moment, and this derby would be the time to do it. But at even money, it is hard to pass on Fnatic, who have been more stable, despite playing a style of play that only works if they do not fall behind early too much.
