Anyone’s Legend looked shaky earlier in the split, but their recent wins over Ninjas in Pyjamas and Weibo Gaming have at least given them a bit of momentum heading into the second half of the group stage.

The victory over Weibo was still far from perfect. AL edged out a competitive first map, got run over in the second, and only just closed the third thanks to slightly better mid-to-late game decision-making. It was a useful win, but not one that completely erased doubts.

Invictus Gaming opened the split 3-0, but the wheels have come off since then. They now sit on a four-match losing streak, including a 0-2 defeat to JD Gaming last week where too many early-game errors left them chasing from behind.

Even so, the market still feels a touch too high on Anyone’s Legend. Invictus Gaming remain a team that can start well, and that matters in this matchup because AL still lean heavily on their late-game setups. If IG can get out in front and keep the pressure on, they have every chance to make this messy. At the current number on top LoL betting sites, backing Invictus to take a map looks like the better angle.

WEIBO GAMING vs TOP ESPORTS

Weibo Gaming head into Week 5 with a 2-6 record and on a two-match skid. They did manage to beat Team WE last week, but the follow-up losses to Anyone’s Legend and Bilibili Gaming kept them near the bottom of the group.

That record does not mean Weibo are completely hopeless, but it does highlight their biggest issue. Their early game continues to let them down, and too often they are trying to recover from a poor start before they ever get to play the slower, scrappier style that suits them best.

That is a very dangerous flaw against a team like Top Esports. TES have now won six straight series and have looked sharper with each passing week. Their strong early-game pressure has been one of the biggest reasons why, and it lines up perfectly into a matchup against a side that struggles to survive the opening stages.

If Weibo can somehow drag this into a slower game, they can make things awkward. The problem is that Top Esports are exactly the kind of team that rarely lets that happen. With form, style, and confidence all pointing in the same direction, TES to win 2-0 is the standout play here.
