G2 Esports Form

G2 Esports haven't had the best run through the LEC 2024 Summer regular season – at least for their standards. They ended the stage in third place with a 7-2 record and have produced some less-than-convincing games over the nine-game stretch.

With G2 Esports, we have to know that they tend to look worse in BO1s both because that format is more volatile and because G2 Esports rarely show their best form before the playoffs. So, while you can find some flaws with G2 from the regular season, there's always that threat of G2 Esports taking games seriously when it really matters.

Karmine Corp Form

Karmine Corp just produced their best run though LEC regular season, finishing LEC 2024 Summer with a 4-5 record. This is still not great, but it is an improvement.

Slight improvement with this team means very little. Even after the roster changes, Karmine Corp still look like a LoL team with no cohesion, and there seem to be some coaching problems, as Karmine Corp have proven to have some serious fundamental issues.

And even though Karmine Corp field talented players, all that means very little – which holds true for any team in any region. It also begs the question of what Karmine Corp can do to defeat G2 Esports, who are the clear best team in the West.

Verdict

G2 Esports v Karmine Corp

Karmine Corp don't look bad on paper. They field solid players and should do much better, but this team has so many issues, which could be due to poor coaching, lack of cohesion or both. And while there's always this feeling about KC that they can wake up at any moment, there's nothing that would suggest this will happen anytime soon.

G2 Esports performed worse in the LEC 2024 Summer regular season than expected. But they're still an elite team, and G2 tend to "wake up" in the playoffs. So unless they completely blunder their chances, G2 Esports should win with ease.
