Kanga have yet to play an official match, so they’re somewhat of an enigma; however, we saw their core compete at LPL Challenger League 2021 Season 2 in August under Simplicity, when Daniel “DANZ” Whitfield and co. placed third. Lese Esports have made some roster changes of late, but like Kanga, their core has participated in the LPL Challenger League and finished as runners-up.
Despite their past success, Lese Esports enter this match as underdogs, which makes sense considering they lost against DANZ’s crew in July (1-2), with 16-6 on Inferno, 11-16 on Overpass, and 3-16 on Mirage.
At this level of play, betting on the favourites is rarely a wise option; however, it’s tough to trust the underdogs, who are fresh off a 0-2 defeat against Alke. Kanga Esports to win is a safe bet, but we’ll take a shot on the favourites with a map handicap.

Caught off Guard are the reigning LPL Challenger League Season 3 champions and clear betting favourites for this bout. However, while CoG have had their highs, they have slumped to some very low lows, namely last month, when they finished the ESEA’s 38th season of Premier Division in 13th-14th place.
We haven’t seen much from MIRACLE RUN (renamed to Collateral), and while they have done enough to qualify for this tournament, they only had to beat DoMilk (2-0) during the qualifiers last month.
Caught off Guard are a much better team on paper, but they are struggling with their form. On the other side, MIRACLE RUN field a few solid pieces which might lack synergy but have the individual talent to pull off clutch plays.
MIRACLE RUN likely won’t win, but they should be able to cause some damage, and at +162, it’s tough to pass on betting on the outsiders with a map advantage.
