NLC 2021 Summer LoL betting predictions – 2/6/2021

ESB’s free League of Legends betting tips for Wednesday focus on two Northern League of Legends Championship (NLC) 2021 Summer bouts. Here are our best bets for Granit Gaming vs Tricked Esports and Dusty vs Team Singularity.


Granit Gaming and Tricked Esports will clash on Wednesday in the opening round of NLC 2021 Summer Group A. Tricked enter this match as favourites with LoL betting sites, which seems fair considering they were the more successful team last split. That said, they weren’t that much better than Granit seeing how they both lost to Team Singularity in the playoffs.

Both teams enter the NLC Summer with new rosters, meaning they will both go through some growing pains in the earlier stages of the split. The individual quality is there, but synergy is highly questionable.

This match is a complete coin-flip since we can’t know how strong and how synergised these rosters are. This is a spot where you take the underdogs and hope the coin lands on the right side.


Team Singularity looked very solid last split, yet they only reached the third round of the playoffs and thus fell short of qualifying for the LoL European Masters. Singularity are one of the few teams in the league that have not made any roster changes, which is a good decision considering the NLC Spring was the first split together for this group.

Dusty clawed their way back to the NLC through the relegation series, where they made it past MnM Gaming and Bifrost. They have rebuilt their roster in the hope of moving up the rungs this split, but you have to wonder how long will it take to form a strong synergy.

Talent-wise, there’s not much to set these two sides apart, but the experience of playing together for the last five months should give Singularity the edge.
