On April 11, 2025, at 2:00 PM EET, Invictus Gaming will face Top Esports during the group stage of Ascend LPL Split 2 2025. The match will be in a Bo3 format, and below is our prediction for this game.
Current Team Form
Invictus Gaming
Invictus Gaming hasn't started the group stage of the second split of LPL 2025 very successfully. After winning their first match, the team suffered two consecutive losses, raising concerns among fans. Despite having a strong, star-studded roster, iG shows inconsistent play, especially in matches against the league's giants. One of the key issues remains their vulnerability to comebacks — the team often fails to maintain their lead in the late game, costing them victories.
Top Esports
Top Esports are living up to their status as favorites and reigning LPL champions. In the Ascend group, they have not lost a single match, boasting a confident 3-0 record. The team displays coordinated play, strong macro strategy, and individual skill in every position. TES approaches the match against Invictus Gaming as the undeniable favorites, aiming to keep their undefeated streak.
Head-to-Head Meetings
The last head-to-head meeting between Invictus Gaming and Top Esports took place a month ago during LPL Split 1 2025. TES secured a confident victory with a 3:1 score, showcasing significant advantages in both drafts and map play. Despite iG's attempts to put up a fight, TES appeared much more organized, especially in crucial moments.
Match Prediction
Considering the current form of the teams, head-to-head meetings, and tournament standings, Top Esports is the clear favorite for the match. The team demonstrates confidence, stability, and the ability to control the game from start to finish. Invictus Gaming, although having potential, currently does not show enough cohesion to challenge the champions.
Prediction: Top Esports wins 2:0
