Karmine Corp Blue’s Olaf Bet vs Anubis in EMEA Masters

Karmine Corp Blue is betting on Tao’s Olaf to blunt maged’s Camille in EMEA Masters Game 2, despite Olaf’s 36% global win rate against Camille over 42 games. The pick has looked far stronger in this tournament, but with only 5 games in that matchup, Karmine Corp Blue must turn that promising signal into early pressure before Camille can take over side lanes.

TL;DR: Karmine Corp Blue faces Anubis Gaming in EMEA Masters Game 2, with the draft model favoring Anubis 56% to Karmine Corp Blue’s 44%. The headline draft fact is Tao’s Olaf: he has an 80% EMEA Masters win rate against Camille over 5 games, challenging a matchup where Olaf is just 36% globally across 42 games.

Compositions: Karmine Corp Blue vs Anubis Gaming

Karmine Corp Blue has a direct engage-and-skirmish setup: Yukino’s Lee Sin and Prime’s Nautilus can start fights, while Tao’s Olaf runs through control and Kamiloo’s Viktor supplies zone control and scaling damage. Looki’s Kai’Sa can follow those engages, but her 40.0% EMEA Masters win rate on the champion is a warning. The comp wants early picks and mid-game fights around Viktor’s setup; if those openings fail, its engage can become predictable.

Anubis Gaming has a more layered teamfight plan. Camille offers side-lane pressure and access to the backline, while Cho’Gath adds frontline and a reliable objective threat. Giyuu’s Orianna, Shy Carry’s Yunara and B Butcher’s Lulu bring scaling, protection and strong grouped-fight tools. Anubis can absorb early pressure, then use Camille’s flank threat and Orianna’s control to force Karmine Corp Blue into difficult engages.

Key Picks and Stats

Top lane is the defining matchup. Tao’s Olaf holds a 53.1% global win rate over 510 games and 70.3% in EMEA Masters over 37 games; his tournament record on Olaf is 100.0% over 1 game, with a 9.0 KDA. Maged’s Camille has a 52.5% global win rate over 463 games and 59.3% in EMEA Masters over 27. Global head-to-head favors Camille at 64.3% over 42 games, but Camille is only 20.0% over 5 EMEA Masters games against Olaf. Tao’s small-sample tournament success makes the pick a deliberate counter, not a guaranteed answer.

In the jungle, Yukino’s Lee Sin is 54.5% globally over 919 games but 45.5% in EMEA Masters over 66; his tournament record is 100.0% over 2 games, with a 12.0 KDA. Theocacs’ Cho’Gath is 35.3% globally over 51 games and 0.0% in EMEA Masters over 1. The model’s Lee Sin-versus-Cho’Gath matchup sample is empty, so this is less a proven counter than a test of Lee Sin’s early tempo.

Mid favors Kamiloo on paper: Viktor is 50.4% globally over 931 games and 55.6% in EMEA Masters over 90, while Giyuu’s Orianna is 50.8% over 1,143 and 45.2% over 73. Viktor’s EMEA Masters head-to-head record against Orianna is 80.0% over 10 games. Giyuu’s counterpoint is a 100.0% tournament win rate on Orianna over 2 games, with a 10.7 KDA.

Bot lane has more uncertainty: Looki’s Kai’Sa is 54.5% globally over 356 games but 40.0% in EMEA Masters over 25; Shy Carry’s Yunara is 50.9% over 1,361 and 53.3% over 137. The tournament head-to-head is 50.0% over just 2 games. Support also leans toward Anubis’s protection: B Butcher’s Lulu is 54.9% in EMEA Masters over 122, while Prime’s Nautilus is 44.6% over 112. Yet Nautilus has a 60.0% tournament win rate against Lulu over 10 games.

Draft Edge

Anubis has the more cohesive scaling and protection package, backed by stronger model signals for champion win rate (51.5% to 49.8%) and duo synergy (56.6% to 51.9%). Camille plus Lulu and Orianna plus Lulu are especially useful pairings in the supplied data. Karmine Corp Blue’s path is to use Lee Sin and Nautilus to create early advantages, then let Olaf and Kai’Sa enter fights on favorable terms. If Camille reaches side-lane control or Anubis gets to group safely, the red-side composition has the cleaner late-game structure.

Polymarket Market

Polymarket gives Karmine Corp Blue 68% and Anubis Gaming 32% for Game 2. The Series NOW market is 66% for Karmine Corp Blue and 34% for Anubis. No Series PRE-MATCH odds were provided, so the market’s movement since pre-match cannot be established. Karmine Corp Blue is priced 2 percentage points higher in this specific game than in the series overall, a modest difference that makes the market more optimistic about its Game 2 chances. That confidence may reflect the Olaf-Camille tournament matchup signal and Karmine Corp Blue’s form, even though the model favors Anubis’s more balanced composition.

Prediction

The draft model’s call remains Anubis Gaming 56% to Karmine Corp Blue 44%. Karmine Corp Blue’s team-form signal is 70.0%, while Anubis’s is 80.0%; Anubis also leads the model’s head-to-head signal, 55.6% to 44.4%. Game 1 went to Anubis Gaming, but its listed 1-1 kills at 3:10 offers little evidence of decisive momentum. The market’s Karmine Corp Blue lean and Tao’s tournament Olaf record keep the matchup close; still, Anubis’s stronger synergy and scaling give it the edge.
