Prediction
Following the loss at the LoL Worlds 2023 Semifinals, JD Gaming (JDG) made a few roster changes for the new season. In the LPL Spring 2024 Group Stage, the team finished third in the table. They only lost to three teams: Bilibili Gaming, FunPlus Phoenix, and Weibo Gaming.
JDG was up against Weibo Gaming in the previous stage of the Playoffs. It was an elimination game, where the former completely outclassed the latter. JDG's top laner, Flandre, was the most impactful player in that series with his Jax, Rek'Sai, and Twisted Fate picks.
Top Esports, on the other hand, had one of its best LPL Group Stage performances in recent times. The team finished second in the Group Stage table. Notably, Top Esports' exceptional top laner, 369, left JDG to join the squad for the new season. Subsequently, the team significantly improved to become one of the best contenders at LPL Spring 2024.
As Top Esports secured its Round 4 spot after finishing second in the Group Stage, the clash against JDG will be its first match in the Playoff Stage.
