This BO1 pits LYON’s proven ability to take a game against Karmine Corp’s unbeaten Worlds run. LYON beat Team Secret Whales 1-0 in its latest match, but its last five series include two losses and a 3W-2L record. Karmine Corp has won its first four matches, including a 3-2 victory over Cloud9. The supplied results list no direct meeting between these teams, so this matchup comes down to current form rather than a recent head-to-head.
The early-game edge belongs to Karmine Corp: its average gold difference is +2,441, compared with LYON’s +1,093, and its early-game rating is 7.4/10 against 6.1/10. The biggest lane gap is mid, where kyeahoo leads the listed average at 15 minutes with +891 gold difference, while Saint is at +170. In the jungle, Yike’s +315 contrasts with Inspired’s -239, though Inspired’s 5.2 KDA and rising trend make him a potential disruptor. The decisive carry test is Berserker against Caliste: Berserker’s 7.5 KDA and latest Ezreal performance give LYON a clear win condition.
Draft could shape that contest. Nocturne has 93.3% presence and an 83.3% ban rate, making a ban likely; Vi, at 100% WR in 6 games, is another priority, especially since LYON often bans her and Karmine Corp favors the pick. If Vi is available, she is a plausible B1 choice; otherwise, Jarvan IV, with 75% WR in 4 games, is a credible alternative.
Polymarket gives LYON a 44.5% chance and Karmine Corp 55.5%. That modest gap reflects Karmine Corp’s 4W-0L record and superior gold and lane differentials, balanced against LYON’s strong bot-lane output and the volatility of a single game. The market favors Karmine Corp, but not by enough to make LYON’s upset path remote.
Karmine Corp should win 55.5% to LYON’s 44.5%, because its cleaner early game and unbeaten run give it the steadier route to victory.
