BLG is no stranger to winning against strong teams, and its run in the current LPL split’s playoffs proves that. But this team is extremely experimental and heavily relies on catching the enemy team by surprise to win. While this worked against TES in the upper bracket final with the now-infamous rotating jungler strategy, the same may not work here.
When it comes to pure skills, both teams are fairly close. This means it may be a good choice to bet on the match going to a fifth game. BLG usually takes the first game slow when against a team it’s confident against, but considering the upcoming match is against a strong Top Esports roster, the team will likely go in strong from the get-go. BLG has a good chance of winning the first game by catching Top Esports by surprise with its aggression, even if that advantage will dwindle as the games stack up.
Top Esports’ ADC JackeyLove is strong enough alone, but TES support Hang has really stepped up in combination with him. The match against Anyone’s Legend showcased how strong this bot duo can be, and bringing that same energy against Bilibili Gaming may give it a good chance to score a close win.

BLG may have won all three matches it has played in the ongoing LPL playoffs, but each of those matches were close victories. By contrast, Top Esports has been going strong in this entire split and even emerged victorious in the rumble stage. This consistency strongly suggests that TES now has more to bring to the table than BLG, and the grand final will likely see just that being proved out.
This is further suggested by TES’ series against Anyone’s Legend, where the TES bottom lane absolutely dominated its opposition.
It wouldn’t be surprising if BLG takes the first game before TES shows off its ability to adapt and strategize, overwhelming BLG before ultimately winning the grand final in the fifth and final game.
