sportskeeda.com:

The second match of the Group Stage during the lower bracket playoff run at League of Legends LEC 2023 is a clash between G2 Esports and SK Gaming. This is a do-or-die game as the defeated team will be eliminated from the tournament while the winner progresses forward.

Many would argue that the matchup favors G2 Esports, but the team is currently in rough shape after getting demolished by KOI and getting pushed to the lower bracket. SK Gaming, despite losing to Team BDS in the upper bracket, is doing comparatively better and is currently the favorite.

G2 Esports had a good start to League of Legends LEC 2023 Spring Split and finished fourth in the regular season. The team looked strong in terms of both individual performance as well as teamplay. As a result, when G2 Esports was pitched against KOI, many expected the former to steamroll the competition and progress to the next round.

Unfortunately, the match did not pan out that way. G2 Esports ended up getting demolished by KOI and dropped to the lower bracket. While the loss may not be a big deal in itself, G2 Esports is currently struggling to come up with a unique strategy. The team had one particular plan in place, and they faltered when their opponents figured it out.

SK Gaming, on the other hand, had a pretty average start to the Spring Split. Everyone had expected the team to shine after their brilliant performance in the Winter Split, but SK Gaming could not replicate those performances. That said, the team is extremely resilient. They are good at playing through the botlane, which is something that may give them the upper hand against G2 Esports.

Thus, SK Gaming seems to have the advantage today despite G2 being the star team. The latter looked shaky against KOI. If
