Play-In: Tuesday, October 10th – Sunday, October 15th, 2023
8 teams are split into two double-elimination group
Movistar R7 vs. PSG Talon
Movistar R7 and PSG Talon have never met before, but they both attended the Mid-Season Invitational 2023, where neither team made it far. Movistar R7 finished the event in 10th-11th place, while PSG Talon placed ninth after losing the Last Chance Qualifier match against Golden Guardians.
For this match, PSG Talon are expected to win, and that’s more than fair. The PCS is a much stronger region than LLA and arguably slightly stronger than the LCS. LLA, on the other side, is the weakest region in the world, besides Japanese LJL, and that alone is a good reason to have more faith in PSG Talon.
Opening games of LoL Worlds are often chaotic and unpredictable, but even if we take that into account, PSG Talon is a class above Movistar R7.

LOUD vs. GAM Esports
LOUD and GAM Esports have never met before, so it’s tough to say how this game will go. However, we know that the Brazilian and the Vietnamese teams are super aggressive in how they approach their games, and we can use that to find betting picks.
On paper, LOUD look slightly better than GAM, and that’s reflected in the offered betting odds. And while it’s possible to make a case for GAM as the better team, we don’t have much data on the two squads and definitely not enough to make any firm conclusions.
Still, knowing that GAM and LOUD like to fight and tend to produce high-scoring games, betting on over 29.5 kills makes the most sense.

DetonatioN FocusMe vs. CTBC Flying Oyster
DetonatioN FocusMe are expected to struggle at LoL Worlds 2023, which makes sense. Even though this is by far the best team from the LJL, DFM has never accomplished much on the international stage, and this likely won’t change this season.
CTBC Flying Oyster are in the same boat as a team that has yet to leave a mark on the international stage, yet they’re priced as favorites for this match. This mainly has to do with the fact that CTBC Flying Oyster hail from a stronger league, so naturally, they should be stronger than DFM.
Still, CTBC Flying Oyster didn’t look good this season, and even though they’re the second-best team from PCS, they can easily stumble against DFM.

Team BDS vs. Team Whales
Europe’s fourth seed, Team BDS, are -2000 favorites to defeat Team Whales, which sounds about right. Even though Team BDS likely won’t accomplish much at this tournament, they’re still miles ahead of Team Whales, who not only hail from a weaker region (VCS) but are not even the best Vietnamese team.
While we can say for sure how this game will go, there’s a solid betting opportunity to take advantage of. Team Whales tend to produce high-scoring games, and Team BDS aren’t afraid to fight either. So even though BDS will likely win easily, over 23.5 kills at -118 is a solid bet for both maps.
Lol World 2023 Prediction: Over 23.5 kills -118 | Bet Team BDS vs. Team Whales
