Cloud9 enter this match as favourites, which comes as no surprise. They’ve been the clear third-best team of LCS Summer and are 2-0 up in the head-to-head against Shopify Rebellion.
There’s also a sense that C9 haven’t shown everything during the group play, suggesting there’s a world where they step up in the playoffs.
While known to be chokers in playoffs, Cloud9, qualitatively, are a tier above Shopify Rebellion and, barring any major slip-ups, should be in a good spot to come out ahead.
- Cloud9 have looked better this split
- Shopify Rebellion are a mid-table team
- Cloud9 are known to choke, but should be favoured

Cloud9 Seem to be “Back”
Cloud9 have held on well this split, ending the regular season in third place, with a 5-2 record. They’ve dealt with all teams in the league except for the two top dogs in LYON and Team Liquid, who are arguably a class above everyone else.
Cloud9 have been the clear third-best team of the split, even performance metrics-wise. They rank third in the early game with a +1467 gold difference at 20 minutes, and third in gold difference per minute at +193. Even their neutral objective control sits around the third-place mark, albeit with the league’s best dragon control at just under 63%.
During the season, Cloud9 have been showing some cracks, but have also produced a more promising display in the latter stages of the group stage. On the other hand, Cloud9 are known to choke in the playoffs, which is something to consider ahead of this clash.

Shopify Rebellion Are Doing Fine
Shopify Rebellion have ended the regular season in sixth place, with a 3-4 record. This isn’t particularly impressive, but the eye test proves that SR have been playing like a proper mid-table team, who will easily handle bottom feeders but struggle against LCS’s top dogs.
Notably, Shopify Rebellion faced Cloud9 in the penultimate week of the regular season and lost 1-2. It was a fairly competitive game in which SR showed good fight, giving hope that they might be able to challenge Cloud9 once more.
This, however, depends heavily on how well Cloud9 performs, as they made some errors in the last head-to-head. Less of that, and Shopify Rebellion will have a much harder time coming out ahead.

Verdict
Shopify Rebellion haven’t looked terrible this season, but they haven’t shown as high highs as Cloud9, nor do they have the same ceiling. Last time out, SR played a fairly close game against C9, yet Cloud9 made a few too many errors on the day, so unless they have the same slip-ups on Saturday, it is hard to imagine Shopify Rebellion causing an upset.
Cloud9 are known to choke in playoffs, which can happen. But it is hard to bet on C9 slipping given their high ceiling.
