Prediction

The gold medal at the League of Legends tournament in the upcoming Asian Games 2023 is expected to go to Team South Korea or possibly Team China. Dominated by elite LoL esports teams, including T1, JD Gaming, and Gen.G Esports, South Korea's team boasts impressive players.

After a standout showing in the LCK 2023 Spring Split and a second-place finish, T1's Zeus, Faker, and Keria have been selected to compete globally. Ace mid-laner Chovy, hailing from the victorious LCK team, will be competing alongside Faker. Meanwhile, two-time champions of the LPL, JD Gaming, dominated the stage at MSI 2023. As a result, their jungler Kanavi and botlaner Ruler were included in the South Korean lineup.

The potential for a gold medal is within reach if the team meshes well. It's a rare opportunity to observe the legendary squad in action, if only for a brief span.

Meanwhile, the skill level of Team Hong Kong in League of Legends is a mystery. But YSKM, their top lane player, is a prominent member of the LPL's Invictus Gaming team. Interestingly enough, the jungler, mid-laner, ADC, support player, and their coach all hail from PCS' FRANK Esports and landed 4th place in the summer split.

It is possible that Hong Kong might pull off an underdog upset and win the game if they play the best League of Legends. Nevertheless, South Korea remains the favored team and should easily secure the best-of-one match.
