FPX vs Damwon KIA at League of Legends Worlds 2021: All you need to know

Predictions

FPX had a brilliant summer split at the Chinese LPL. They cruised their way into the finals and stomped over almost every other team. Their midlaner Doinb is in the form of his life and is undoubtedly the best player in the world right now. However, they fell short as FPX ended up losing to Edward Gaming in the finals.

Damwon KIA, on the other hand, did not have an excellent start to the split. They were slow and were finding it hard to find their form. However, once they did, it was hard to stop them. Damwon KIA ended up winning the finals of the summer split after a stomping victory over T1.

In truth, this match is hard to predict. Both teams are highly seasoned, and they are all past winners at Worlds. However, FPX might have an advantage by a small margin as their aggressive playstyle allows them to take games very quickly. The pace at which they play is often hard for most teams to handle, and therefore, FPX should win this tie against Damwon KIA.
