The offered LoL betting odds on this match suggest we will be in for a closely contested series, and we can’t argue with that. Even though we have yet to see Royal Never Give Up play this tournament, the 2021 Mid-Season Invitational champions are expected to field their LoL Pro League (LPL) roster, so they should be fine.
We also know what to expect from Top Esports, who have remained mostly unchanged from the 2021 LPL season. The only addition of the offseason was top laner Zhang “Zoom” Xing-Ran, who is a sideways move at best and hardly someone who can help the team reach new heights this season.
Top Esports played well during the group stage (3-1), but it’s easy to look good against weaker teams or rosters made up of academy players. Top are a solid team, but we are leaning more towards RNG.

EDWARD GAMING vs INVICTUS GAMING LoL BETTING & MATCH DETAILS |
|
|---|---|
| LoL Betting Odds: | EDward +279 at BetOnline | IG -416.67 at BetOnline |

EDward Gaming’s roster consists of support Wang “Xiamu” Yong-Xu, ADC Hu “Leave” Hong-Chao, mid laner Zhang “maolv” Bao-Long, jungler Guo “Brave” Zi-Yang, and top laner Mak “Solokill” Fu Keung. This is essentially the EDward Gaming Youth Team.
There is a possibility EDward will field their starting top laner, Huang “Xiaoxiang” Xiang, for this match, but that’s unlikely to happen unless they fall behind in the series and need a boost. Unlike EDG, Invictus Gaming enter this match with their LPL lineup, which could explain the LoL betting odds had Invictus not promoted the majority of their academy lineup to the main roster this offseason.
Since this is a clash between two academy rosters, the offered betting odds on this match make no sense. IG did well in the group stage (4-0), but this is still the same core that played for Invictus Gaming Young last season, and they weren’t that much better than the EDG Youth Team. The value is with EDward Gaming.
