The Honor of Kings Pro League (KPL) Growth League Spring 2026 grand final is here, and there is a lot at stake as one team will move on to compete in one of the biggest esports leagues worldwide.
WST is up against SYGaming for one spot in the KPL Summer 2026. Here are the betting odds, our predictions, and best picks for the anticipated match-up.
The grand final is a rematch of the second match of the upper bracket semifinal, just like the KPL Spring 2026 grand final.
In that match, WST and SY Gaming were both evenly placed. The two teams traded wins up until the fifth game, where SY Gaming were able to reach match point.
However, WST won the final two games of the series to secure the win and move on to the upper bracket final.
In this match against LT Gaming, the esports betting odds didn’t favor the team. However, WST were able to pull off an underdog performance to take the series 4–0.
SY Gaming, on the other hand, have had a lower bracket run to make it to the grand final. They defeated Xianyou Gaming 4–1 before facing WLT Esports in the lower bracket semifinal.
This proved to be another seven-game affair for SYGaming. Following that intense game, they faced LT Gaming in the lower bracket final, a series they also won comfortably 4–0.
SYGaming and WST both look to be at their very best. SYG’s Jinyu has already secured 25 MVPs throughout the playoffs.
WST, on the other hand, also have stellar singular performances from Xu “AnLan” Hongyang, who earned 25 MVPs in the group stage, and from Ding “MengYuan” Rufeng, who has four MVP titles in the playoffs.

While SYGaming may have earned some spectacular wins this season, their head-to-head performance against WST tells a different story.
The two teams have met thrice this season, and on all three occasions, WST have been the winners. Furthermore, the team has had more time to prepare, along with key data from SYGaming’s increased number of matches.
Therefore, WST are likely to win this series. However, it could be a close one, even going all the way to game seven.
