Welcome to EGamersWorld.
We continue to break down what's going on at LCK Summer 2024. There's a lot of top League of Legends action ahead, as the regular season is in full swing.
Here we're going to talk about a very "passable" matchup. Namely the match between FearX and BRION.
Both teams are fighting for the status of "mid-tier". Let's see which team will be stronger and earn such important points.
Let's go.
FearX Form
Let's open the match with an analysis of FearX's form. In this match they will play as favourites with odds to win at around 1.6.
FearX is a relatively new name on the LCK. The team shone on the competitive scene back in 2018, but got to LCK 2024 by merging Liiv Sandbox and SANDBOX Gaming, which is what we'll be basing our analysis of FearX on.
Having been on the competitive scene since 2018, they started playing on LCK in 2019. First it was Top 5 at LCK Spring 2019, followed by Top 4 at LCK Summer 2019 and Top 3 at Regional Finals 2019, which wasn't enough to attend Worlds 2019.
What followed was a string of failed performances and playing at TIR tournaments. Things started to turn around in 2021 when FearX, while still Liiv Sandbox took Top 4 at Regional Finals.
It wasn't going badly in 2022 when SANDBOX were one step away from Worlds. First they finished top 3 at LCK Summer 2022 and then top 3 at Regional Finals, Ledgeiv DRX at 2-3, failing to make it to Worlds. By the way, DRX won Worlds that year, so there you go.
2023, on the other hand, was a flop, after a pretty good showing the previous season. LCK Spring 2023 was top 6, and LCK Summer 2023 was top 7.
- FearX lineup: Clear, Willer, Clozer, Hena, Execute.
FearX changed their roster significantly during the November 2023 transfer window. Clear, Clozer, Hena and Execute joined the team, while jungler Willer remained the only player from the previous roster.
At LCK Spring 2024, FearX finished in the top 7, failing to reach the championship play-offs.
Before their match against BRION, FearX have 1 win and 3 losses under their belt.
Most Chosen FearX Champions
The most popular character on the top line remains KSante (7 games, 42% wins). Gnar (6 games, 83% wins), Fiora (5 games, 60% wins) are also taken.
On foresters there is nothing fundamentally new: Sejuani (7 matches, 57% wins), Wukong (6 matches, 66% wins), Maokai (4 games, 100% wins).
In the centre, the favourite patch champion is Azir (7 matches, 85% wins). Beside him are Akali (4 games, 25% wins), Sylas (4 games, 75% wins).
The most favoured ADC is Varus (6 matches, 66% wins). Lucian (4 games, 100% wins) and Ashe with Caitlyn (3 games and 66% wins each) are also popular.
Supporting players are Heimerdinger (5 games, 60% wins), Karma (4 games, 50% wins), Ashe (3 games, 66% wins), Nami (3 games, 100% wins).
BRION Form
We continue our analysis of the BRION vs FearX match with the analysis of BRION's form. In this match they will play as an outsider with odds to win at around 4.
BRION have been on the competitive scene of League of Legends for a long time, but they have not been able to collect results. Speaking specifically about LCK, they have been playing there since 2021.
In the 2021 season, the team had two back-to-back losses: at LCK Spring they were in the top 10, and at LCK Summer they were in the top 9. Then came 2022, but the performance didn't change at all: first top 6 at LCK Spring 2022, then top 9 at LCK Summer 2022.
Last season BRION strengthened a little bit, but they did. They finished top 8 at LCK Spring 2023 and top 8 at LCK Summer 2023.
- BRION roster: Morgan, GIDEON, Karis, Envyy, Effort.
The "veteran" of BRION is Karis. He has been playing in the team since last June.
LCK Spring 2024 Brion finished in their repertoire. The team finished 10th in the final standings with 3 wins and 15 losses.
Things don't change much at LCK Summer 2024. BRION are still trailing 0-5 on the last line of the standings.
BRION's most popular champions
KSante (4 matches, 75% wins), Jax (2 matches, 0% wins), Quinn (2 matches, 50% wins) inhabit the top line.
Foresters include Sejuani (5 matches, 60% wins), Maokai (3 matches, 0% wins), Poppy (3 games, 33% winrate).
On the centre line Azir (3 matches, 33% win rate), Annie (2 matches, 50% win rate), Ahri (2 matches, 0% win rate), Orianna (2 matches, 100% win rate).
The most popular shooters are Aphelios (4 matches, 50% wins), Ashe (3 matches, 33% wins), Jinx (2 matches, 0% wins), Xayah (2 matches, 100% wins).
Supporting champions include Rell (4 matches, 50% wins), Rakan (2 matches, 100% wins), Nautilus (2 matches, 50% wins).
BRION vs FearX
The teams have played each other twice before, and both times FearX won. And with a score of 2-0.
Predicted result of FearX vs BRION at LCK Summer 2024
In this match my bet is on FearX. BRION are able to squeeze maps from the dead KT Rolster, but not more than that.
Bottom line: 2-0 win for FearX.
