Top Esports will clash with Suning the opening fixture of the 2021 LPL season in what may seem like a close affair, but this is no longer the Suning we know from last season. That is not to say the Lions are now a bad team, but they are entering this match without two key players that helped them reach the grand finals of the 2020 LoL World Championship.
Support Hu “SwordArt” Shuo-Chieh has left to Team SoloMid, whereas ADC Tang “huanfeng” Huan-Feng is expected to miss the season opener due to some off-the-Rift scandal. Replacing him will be Xie “Jinjiao” Jin-Shan, who is regarded as a huge prospect, but until we see him in action it’s hard to value him over Yu “JackeyLove” Wen-Bo.
Suning still have some solid pieces in the team, but they can hardly compare to Top Esports, who field one of the strongest rosters in the league. Expect Top Esports to start the new season strong and secure a 2-0 sweep.

All esports betting sites agree that the second fixture of the 2021 LPL season will be just as one-sided as the Suning vs Top Esports bout, and we don’t have a problem with that. Although EDward Gaming’s success in recent years was fairly limited, they have assembled a very competitive roster that is bound to help them reach new heights in 2021.
By promoting Huang “Xiaoxiang” Xiang, EDward have potentially gained some stability in the top side, whereas Ming “Clearlove” Kai’s return to the Rift should help EDG with their shot-calling and decision-making. Perhaps the most exciting addition to the team is ADCs Park “Viper” Do-hyeon who will be eager to prove he is still as good as he was during his time at Griffin in 2018-2019.
Oh My God made no big-name signings during the offseason and instead opted to try out young and inexperienced players. That is by no means a bad path to take considering how much success rookie squads had in 2020.
EDG seem like the most likely victors, but we are not confident they can secure a clean sweep. With all the new faces on the team, EDG will likely struggle with synergy for a while, this should give OMG a chance to cause some damage. Check out the top esports betting apps to find a place to bet.
