Who will win LoL Worlds 2022? After the draw there are 2 death groups and the dreams of the west die

Last minute The world stood up after Putins decision in

The groups for the LoL Worlds 2022 have been drawn – the betting odds on who will win the 2022 World Cup in League of Legends are also set: fans of teams from the USA or Europe are faced with a bitter picture. The weakest team from Asia is given twice as good a chance of winning the LoL Worlds 2022 as the 4 best teams from Europe and the USA. Fans of G2, Fnatic or Cloud9 must be brave.

What is the relationship between West and East in LoL? From the Western point of view, things have gotten a little worse every year for the past 4 years:

  • In 2018 the teams from Asia were in crisis: 3 teams from Europe and the USA made it to the semifinals, but in the end the Chinese from Invictus Gaming prevailed.
  • In 2019, G2 at least made it to the finals of the Worlds – there you had to admit defeat to Super-Carry Doinb.
  • In 2020, G2 at least made it to the semi-finals and were shown by Showmaker and Canyon that it wasn’t enough after all.
  • But in 2021 it was all over: Only 2 teams from the West even made it into the quarter-finals and were thrown out there without a chance
  • Faker has a strong team again with T1 2022 and is one of the extended circle of favorites for the 4th World Championship:

    5 teams from China and Asia in the favorites of the LoL Worlds 2022

    This is how it looks this year: The bookmakers see 5 teams from China and South Korea in the narrow circle of favorites to win the LoL Worlds: 2 teams from South Korea, 3 teams from China. If you bet $1 on these teams, you will get between $3.50 and $9.

    The “best chances” for a team from the west to win the LoL Worlds are given to 4 teams from Europe and the USA: All 4 teams give the US website an odd of 1:67.

    The weakest team from Asia, DRX, gets twice as good odds, with 1:34.

    This is Ocelote, the boss of G2. He would give anything to become world champion – but 2022 is not looking good for him.

    The two finalists from the LPL are considered the top favorites for the LoL Worlds 2022

    Which teams are the top favorites for the LoL Worlds?

    The bookmakers’ top favorites for the 2022 World Championship are two Chinese teams that have not played a major role in the LoL Worlds in recent years, but who came up trumps this year:

  • The Chinese from JD Gaming won the LPL in 2022. They had the dominant player in the Chinese finals in midlaner Yagao. With the jungler Kanavi they also have a good man from the legendary team Griffin in the jungle
  • The other favorite is Top Esports: The team around midlaner Knight and botlanerJackeyLove have been given great chances of breaking something for years. But then things went wrong. This year, another top player joined Top Esports, Jungler Tian, ​​who won a Worlds in 2019.
  • Is Tian the missing piece of the puzzle to take Top Esports to the top?

    Gen G. and Chovy are the hope for South Korea

    What about South Korea? The third top favorite for the 2022 title is Gen G., the South Korean champion:

    They put together an insane team in 2022: The root botlaner Ruler is now supplemented by Chovy, a dominant midlaner who is considered the founder of the “Church of Chovy”.

    The team is supplemented by 3 strong role players, with the experienced jungler Peanut just experiencing a renaissance.

    What about the other teams? From the bookmaker’s point of view, the other 5 teams from China and South Korea will gradually come in:

  • The South Koreans T1 around Faker and exceptional supporter Keria
  • Edward Gaming, the reigning world champion, with ADC Viper
  • Royal Never Give Up, winners of MSI 2022, are pushed to 6th place on odds
  • DWG KIA, the former miracle team around Showmaker and Canyon, now only has outsider chances to win the World Championship
  • DRX brings up the rear among the Asian teams with odds of 1:34.

    G2 and Cloud 9 catch Kill Groups A and B

    What about “our teams”? It’s looking really bad there. Because the “experienced teams” from the West, who could be expected to surprise, have caught death groups:

  • G2 already plays against the top favorite JD Gaming in the preliminary round and then has to get past Showmaker/Canyon: an extremely difficult task.
  • Cloud9, the strongest team from the USA, meets T1 with Faker and world champion EDward Gaming – it also looks like you’ll be kicked out in the main round.
  • The other two teams that are sure to play Worlds, Rogue and 100 Thieves, still have solvable groups at the moment, but could be unlucky enough to get strong teams drawn here that will play their way through the play-ins.

    In the main round, Jankos (G2) has to face Canyon, one of the best junglers in the world.

    The best teams from the west have twice as bad chances as the weakest team from Asia

    According to the bookies, the odds for a western team to win LoL Worlds have arguably never been as bad as this year:

  • All “Big 4” teams from the west are given a maximum of 1/67 underdog odds to win the Worlds: Rogue, G2 Esports, Cloud9, and Fnatic are all 4 at 1/67.
  • 100 Thieves, MAD Lions and Evil Geniuses even at 1:101.
  • Already in 2021, some teams from Europe experienced a very rough awakening:
