OMG ended last split in 15th with a 3-13 record, whereas Rare Atom squeezed their way into the playoffs, where they made it to the second round and landed in seventh-eighth place. RA have not made any roster changes during the offseason, whereas OMG promoted academy mid laner Lin “Creme” Jian and signed ex-Royal Never Give Up ADC Dai “Able” Zhi-Chun.
OMG showed a lot of progress towards the end of last season, even if their results didn’t appear to reflect that. Jungler Mao “Aki” An led the way as the most improved player on the roster, but we wouldn’t sleep on Able and Crème for this split either.
Rare Atom’s biggest strengths are their flexibility, well-rounded roster, and mid laner Chu “FoFo” Chun-Lan. On the other side, teamfighting is not their strongest suit, and unless they improve in that department, we don’t believe they’ll be able to improve upon their showing in LPL Spring.
RA proved to be the better team last split, but the price on the underdogs seems a bit generous for the opening week. OMG have the tools to cause an upset, and at +162, they’re worth a shot with a map handicap. Half a unit on OMG to win might appeal to some.

EDWARD GAMING vs BILIBILI GAMING LoL BETTING & MATCH DETAILS |

|---|---|
| LoL Betting Odds: | EDward -833.33 at BetOnline | Bilibili +457 at BetOnline |

Bilibili Gaming might not be one of the top five teams in the league, but they’re easily inside the top 10. We’re very bullish on this team, especially with the roster changes in the bottom lane – Kim “Aiming” Ha-ram and Guo “ppgod” Peng.
This will be a deadly bottom lane and possibly Bilibili Gaming’s biggest asset heading into the LPL 2021 Summer. What’s more, BLG got their hands on jungler Wei “Weiwei” Bo-Han, who alongside ppgod led Victory Five to the LPL 2020 Summer quarter-finals.
Despite all the potential Bilibili seem to have, it’s hard to make a case for them against EDward Gaming, who are easily a top-three team. EDG field some of the best players in the region and are serious candidates for the title, but we have a gut feeling that they might have peaked last season.
EDG should come out ahead, but you can’t justify a bet on them at this price so early into the split. A bet on Bilibili to steal one map is a far better choice.
