Team WE might be the weakest team in Group Ascend, and their 0-3 start to the split does not suggest otherwise. They are objectively weaker than any other squad in the group, and their style of play, which relies heavily on scaling and doing nothing in the early game, will not take them far.
Performance metrics-wise, Team WE rank at the bottom across most and consistently find themselves in a significant deficit before the mid-game. Invictus Gaming are not known for their explosive early game, but they have been holding on well this split and are great at closing out games when ahead.
The roster changes have been working well for IG, who are well on their way to emerging as a competitive mid-table team.
The top LoL bookmakers have Team WE priced as +200 underdogs, which sounds fair. They have yet to show anything inspiring and are up against Invictus Gaming, who are in good form.

JD Gaming lost their first match of LPL 2026 Split 2 against Bilibili Gaming, but put on a show on Friday, when they swept Anyone’s Legend. Top Esports, on the other side, slipped against Invictus Gaming and picked up two convincing victories against Anyone’s Legend and Team WE.
Top Esports are a bit of an enigma. They’ve made significant roster changes in the top and bottom lanes, and despite the shaky start, they’ve quickly found a way to perform and integrate the new pieces. JD Gaming have looked just as convincing, as even in their loss to BLG, they performed well.
This should be a competitive game between two elite teams, and a match that will test both JD Gaming and Top Esports.
Between the two, Top Esports have turned more heads, having outperformed expectations; however, they’ve only beaten Team WE and the shaky Anyone’s Legend. TES have to show more.
