The second day of LoL Asia Invitational 2025 group play kicks off with a Group B clash between BNK FEARX and Ninjas in Pyjamas. Both teams struggled to keep up with the top dogs in their respective regional leagues, but they both had small moments and appear to be on the same level quality-wise.
Ninjas in Pyjams took some maps off the top contenders in the LoL Pro League playoffs, namely Top Esports and Anyone’s Legend. BKN FEARX also showed some signs of life in the postseason, with wins against Dplus KIA and Nongshim RedForce.
The best LoL betting sites have Ninjas in Pyjamas priced as favorites, likely due to their success in taking maps off TES and AL. However, in both games, NiP were nothing more than beneficiaries of their opponents’ shaky performances.
A close, competitive game is on the cards.
BetOnlineTwo old foes, JD Gaming and Weibo Gaming, will face off again on Tuesday for the third time since September. The last two meetings ended in JDG’s favor.
Both of the most recent fixtures finished with a 3-1 scoreline, largely due to a complete collapse of Weibo Gaming. After such displays, it comes as no surprise that Li “Xiaohu” Yuanhao and his men are expected to struggle. However, JD Gaming did not play well in either of the two victories. WBG were just that much worse.
It is hard to sell the idea that JD Gaming are much stronger under normal circumstances. They are too flawed and rely too much on ADC Kim “Peyz” Su-hwan to be -188.68 favorites against another elite team.
Vikings Esports are given a mere 14.3% implied probability of upsetting Nongshim RedForce on Tuesday. Considering RedForce hail from a much stronger region, there is some merit in that.
RedForce ended LoL Champions Korea (LCK) in seventh place. They also finished LCK Rounds 3-5 group stage without a single victory and crashed out of the Play-In stage with a 0-3 loss against Dplus KIA. Regardless of those results, NS RedForce are still a group of very talented individuals.
Vikings Esports had their moment at the start of the League of Legends Championship Pacific (LCP), with a third-place finish in the Season Kickoff. But they have not placed higher than fifth in Mid Season and the Season Finals, and eventually had to fight through LCP 2026 Promotion to keep their spot in the top division.
Despite Nongshim RedForce’s shaky performances in LCK, they are significantly stronger than Vikings Esports, and it should show.
