On February 1, 2025, at 20:30 EET, a match between G2 and Rogue will take place as part of the LEC Winter 2025. The match will be in bo1 LAN format. We have reviewed the current team rosters and their form to prepare a prediction for the match outcome.

Current Team Form

G2

G2 are showing inconsistent results at the start of the season: the team alternates between wins and losses. They were defeated by Team BDS and Fnatic, but managed to beat SK Gaming, Team Vitality, and GIANTX. This indicates that the team is capable of adapting and winning against opponents of varying levels. 

Rogue

Rogue are continuing their losing streak. After their victory over Team Heretics, the team lost four consecutive matches, succumbing to GIANTX, Team BDS, Fnatic, and Karmine Corp. In light of these defeats, criticism within the community towards the players and coach has intensified. A fan published a sharp post on social media highlighting Patrik's weak performance, noting his misuse of Flash and strange decision-making in team fights, while also questioning the carry potential of Larssen and his builds. Coach Fredy was also criticized, with the fan expressing outrage that players are allowed not to play SoloQ, making the team appear poorly prepared. This match will reveal if this criticism has had any impact on the team. More details on this news can be found at this link.

Match Prediction

On paper, G2 are clear favorites. They display more confident gameplay, and their roster, particularly mid-laner Caps and the bot lane with Hans Sama and Labrov, surpass Rogue in individual skill level. Rogue, on the other hand, are experiencing difficulties, and their sole victory remains a weak consolation.

PREDICTION: G2 Victory

LEC Winter 2025 takes place in a regular season and playoff format with 10 teams participating. All teams will play in two stages to determine the strongest participant. The winner of the tournament will secure a slot at the First Stand 2025 and €40,000. You can find all the information about the tournament at this link.
