Welcome to EGamersWorld.
We continue to watch professional League of Legends in all its forms. That includes China.
China is hosting LPL Summer 2024, the largest regional tournament of any League of Legends professional championship.
The match between OMG and Ultra Prime will take place on the Rumble Stage, a Nirvana groupie. That is, winning is critical to have a chance to advance to the next stage. Let's see which team is stronger.
Let's go.
Oh My God
Let's open the match with an analysis of OMG's form. In this match they will play as favourites with odds of 1.4.
OMG are not known for their performance, but they have been somewhere in the middle throughout their history. That was also the case in 2022, when OMG were in the top 10 of LPL Summer 2022.
OMG looked much more formidable after the restarts before the start of the 2023 season. Their first big result was a top-4 finish at LPL Spring 2023, and that's quite an accomplishment.
- Oh My God line-up: Cube, xiaofang, Angel, Able, ppgod.
At the end of LPL Summer 2023, Oh My God finished in the top 8. They advanced to the play-offs, the second round of the main stage where they played against EDward Gaming. They failed to beat the title club, as a result 2-3.
In addition to participating in the regional championships of the LPL series, OMG played at the local event NEST 2023. There, by the way, Oh My God showed a really high level of play. Despite sluggish play in the group stage, having reached the play-offs from the second place of their basket, Oh My God beat Bilibili and FunPlus Phoenix in turn, but reaching the finals could not match Royal Never Give Up.
Later there was a similar tournament to NEST 2023 called Demacia Cup 2023, where academic teams also played. There the team failed to make it out of the group.
At LPL Spring 2024, OMG managed to qualify for the play-offs of the tournament. However, they could not go further than the first round and as a result - top 10.
LPL Summer 2024 is not easy. In the first stage of the championship they got into Group C, where they competed with the tops of TES and LNG and as a result fell to the lower grid of the Rumble Stage without winning a series in the opening stage. But already in the "lower basket" of the Rumble Stage the team is on top with 4 wins in 4 matches.
Oh My God's most popular champions
In OMG peaks, KSante (6 matches, 50% wins), Sion (2 matches, 50% wins) appeared on the top line.
Foresters were picked by Sejuani (4 matches, 50% wins), Wukong (3 matches, 33% wins), Vi (2 matches, 50% wins), Maokai (2 matches, 50% wins). Poppy was also winning.
On the centre line, the most piked were the contact killers. Sylas and Yone were picked three times each, both won 2 matches each.
Lucian was the most frequent shooter. The champion was picked 5 times, and he won 2 matches. Zeri (3 games, 100% wins), Varus (2 matches, 50% wins) were also picked.
The pool of players is quite familiar. Karma (2 games, 50% wins), Yuumi (2 matches, 100% wins), Nami (2 games, 50% wins).
Ultra Prime uniforms
We continue the analysis of the match in the lower grid of Rumble Stage with the analysis of Ultra Prime's form. In this match they play in the status of an outsider with the odds of winning around 3.
The maximum achievement remains a top-12 finish in 2022. This happened at the LPL Spring 2022.
Ultra Prime's last achievement, on the other hand, was a top-17 finish at LPL Spring 2023. Next up was LPL Summer 2023
- Ultra Prime's lineup: Decade, H4cker, Yuekai, Jwei.
UP tried to somehow improve their standing on the global Chinese scene by playing at LPL Summer 2023, but it turned out to be pretty mediocre. Ultra Prime finished their appearance at LPL Summer 2023 in the group stage, playing it with a score of 5-11. Nominally, the result improved from LPL Spring 2023, but in fact, it did not.
Prior to the Long Sogpega Demacia Cup 2023, the team played at NEST 2023. There was no performance there either: 1-2 in the group and an early exit to the Top 16. It was not possible to overcome the defeat at NEST 2023: Demacia Cup 2023 finished with identical results, i.e. TOP-16 after not getting out of the group.
At LP Spring 2024 Ultra Prime showed the game that was expected of them: TOP-17 without much chance for a more decent place.
However, at LPL Summer 2024 we have already seen the "rudiments" of a good game: in the group stage the team played in Group D with the score 3-5, and almost made it to the top net, but not fate. At the Rumble Stage, the team has a very dismal position with a score of 2-3.
Ultra Prime's most popular champions
On the top line the most frequent picks are KSante (4 matches, 50% wins), Gnar (3 matches, 100% wins).
Foresters picks are Wukong (4 matches, 50% wins), Vi (2 matches, 50% wins), Nocturne (2 matches, 50% wins), Viego (2 matches, 0% wins).
On the centre line Gragas (4 matches, 50% wins), Annie (4 matches, 50% wins).
Aphelios (6 matches, 33% wins), Jinx (3 matches, 66% wins), Zeri (2 matches, 100% wins).
The same is also stable on the barracks: Lulu (3 matches, 66% wins), Rakan (3 games, 0% wins), Nautilus (2 matches, 50% wins).

Predicted result of Oh My God - Ultra Prime at LPL Summer 2024
In this match I expect a solid performance from OMG. At the Rumble Stage they show a very good game and should go through.
Bottom line: Oh My God wins.
