Top Esports have had quite a tough road so far, with fixtures against T1, Gen.G, and Fnatic, but they’ve done well with a strong showing against the defending world champions and Fnatic. The Chinese representatives rank seventh in gold per minute (1837) and third in gold difference at 15 minutes (+800), which is not unexpected.
As a very explosive early-game team, Top Esports tend to run away with leads and are good at closing out games when ahead, which is one of the main reasons they deserve to be viewed as favourites with the top LoL betting sites to defeat Dplus KIA.
Dplus KIA have been performing very much like themselves, as they seem to lack the incentive to push their leads, which nearly cost them the game against Fnatic. Heo “ShowMaker” Su is also a bit inconsistent but boasts a very strong upside, so it is hard to question their chances of beating any team at LoL Worlds.
At this price, you either take Dplus KIA or pass. They have enough talent to match Top Esports, and while consistency is not there yet, the potential is.

Hanwha Life Esports had a bit of a rough game against G2 Esports, which could have easily ended the other way. But that was more of an indication of G2 Esports’ quality than anything else. On the other side, their rematch with Gen.G ended in a crushing loss.
Hanwha Life Esports continue to play their counter-punching style, which explains why they stood no chance against a tougher opponent. Yet that same style does very well against weaker teams, who are prone to making mistakes—and in theory, that should work against FlyQuest.
The North American representatives have had a very easy road so far at LoL Worlds 2024, with wins against GAM Esports and PSG Talon, but could not make it past Dplus KIA, even though they did not have a terrible showing.
Hanwha Life Esports are the better squad in this contest, but at this number, it is hard to justify taking their side. At +333, we like our chances with FlyQuest to win a map.
