Expectations for the upcoming Worlds 2022 can be interrupted. Local tournaments of serious importance are excellent for this.
One of these events is Asia Star Challengers Invitational 2022 . 16 teams from the "Eastern" League of Legends competed for a prize pool of $65,000, and now there are only two of them left.
EDG Youth Team - MAX will compete for the title of champion and the main prize pool of $25,000. The Chinese final will be held in bo5 format.
Let's try to figure out which of the teams is worthy of holding the Asia Star Challengers Invitational 2022 champion title.
EDG Youth Team Uniform
The first and, as a result, the main contender for victory are the EDG Youth Team. At least, this is what the bookmaker believes, who give odds of around 1.4 for the success of EDward Gaming.
I will not challenge the opinion of the beeches, because they are right. The team in the case was in the camp of the favorite.
Starting the review of EDG Youth Team is right with an analysis of their performance in this competitive year. She grew up with EDG Youth Team after the first half of the year.
At the beginning of 2022, the team “waded” at the bottom of the standings. As an example: 5th place in the LDL Spring 2022 groups followed by TOP 5-8 in the playoffs.
Progress came after a point change of the roster. “Injured” player of the central line. He also helps the team in this tournament, where EDG YouthTeam finished group B with a score of 5-1, after which Huya Streamer (3-1) and FPX Blaze (3-2) went through to the playoffs.
EDG Youth Team
- Solokill
- Monki
- Cyku
- leave
- Xiamu
This roster was formed after a disastrous performance at the LDL Spring 2022 Play-Off. Cyku replaced Oh My God 0909 who switched.
The result was not long in coming: the replacement of the midlaner brought the team 1st place at LDL Summer 2022 in the group and 2nd place in the LDL summer playoffs.
Heroes EDG Youth Team
Of the top lane heroes of the EDG Youth Team, Gwen, Aatrox, and Gnar are favored. Solokill playing them has a 70.1% overall win rate.
In the forest, Monki plays Viego, Trundle and Volibear. The EDG Youth Team Forester has a 71.2% win rate.
On the mid lane, Cyku prefers to be active. With a 79.8% win rate, he plays Sylas, Ahri and LeBlanc most of the time.
Leave is ADK playing for Aphelios, Jinx, Zeri. The player has a 70% win rate.
Of the EDG Youth Team supports, Renata Glasc, Nautilus and Alistar are preferred. Xiamu has a 71.4% win rate.
Form MAX
MAX will be the outsider in this match. The coefficient for their victory, according to the bookmakers, is 2.6
The difference between the teams is not big, which is not surprising. MAX this season are not bad.
The team took 3rd place in the group LDL 2022 Spring, but they were unlucky in the playoffs: TOP-9-12 and an inglorious relegation. The situation was much better at the LDL 2022 summer draw - the team finished third, losing to the future champions from FunPlus Phoenix Blaze.
Asia Star Challengers Invitational 2022 for MAX is going at the maximum, as they say, speeds. The team made it through to the final with blood and sweat, leaving Beyond Gaming Academy (3-0) and T1 Challengers (3-2) in the playoffs.
In the MAX group, he played with the same EDG Youth Team. Once in the group stage, MAX has already outplayed EDG Youth, and are ready to do it again.
Composition MAX
- Garvey
- Kenny Chan
- Medzz
- xianguang
- XinMo
The team has been playing in such a roster since August 2021, and therefore there is no question of teamwork between the performers in MAX.
Heroes MAX
Most Selected Chinese Youth Characters: Jinx (23 matches), Lee Sin (21 matches), Aphelios (21 matches), Nautilus (21 matches), Gnar (20 matches).
The top scoring player is the Garvey topper. The performer has a win rate of 72% in 61 matches, which is already a good indicator.
History of personal confrontations
The teams played each other in the group stage. Then the teams exchanged courtesies, each taking 1 bo3 match.
The outcome of the fight
I'm sure we'll have at least 4 maps in this match. We keep the total in our heads, but determining the winner is not so easy.
EDG Youth Team is a little better in the tournament results, and then only in the group stage. Otherwise, they do not lag behind their counterparts.
Last time I didn't believe in MAX against T1 Challengers. Now they are a little behind in the pre-match, but they can win for sure - and I think they will win.
Bottom line: MAX wins.
