Bilibili Gaming vs Top Esports League of Legends LPL 2024 Spring Split: Who is expected to win?

Prediction

Bilibili Gaming boasts one of the best rosters in the LPL 2024 Spring Split. Following a successful 2023, the team will be looking to ascend to the top this year with the addition of mid laner Zhuo "knight" Ding. The roster has already won the Demacia Cup 2023.

The new meta revolving even more around the bot side should prove very effective for Bilibili Gaming's playstyle, considering ADC Zhao "Elk" Jia-Hao's tendency to hard-carry games. Leaving top laner Chen "Bin" Ze-Bin alone will allow him to exercise his dominance, which should make for an exciting watch.

Top Esports has always remained at the top of the LPL standings since 2019. However, in 2023, the organization could not attend any international events for the first time in a long while. While the roster still remained in the top five, other teams started to catch up and outclass them in terms of macro and, more importantly, mechanics, which Top Esports is highly renowned for.

The LPL 2024 Top Esports show much promise as top laner Bai "369" Jia-Hao returns to the lineup along with the young mid laner Lin "Creme" Jian. Adding veteran support, Tian "Meiko" Ye will provide the necessary shotcalling that could massively improve the macro gameplay.

Bilibili Gaming is expected to clinch the opening LPL 2024 Spring Split best-of-three series. The roster already has great chemistry and coordination, which is a massive advantage over the newly formed Top Esports roster. Furthermore, most of the players in Bilibili Gaming outclass their lane counterparts, with the mid lane being the most prominent.
