Ninjas in Pyjamas and Weibo Gaming will clash on Thursday, August 15, in the third round of League of Legends Pro League (LPL) 2024 Summer Playoffs. This will mark their second meeting of the split and the first since the second week of the regular season.
Song “Rookie” Eui-jin and co. enter this series following a massive victory against JD Gaming on Monday, which could indicate great things to come. While it was an incredibly disappointing series for JDG, we must give some props to NiP — especially their mid-laner Rookie, who, after a long time, looked like his old self.
Weibo Gaming have had a long time to prepare for this match, but it is unlikely they expected to play NiP. Still, they have plenty of film on Ninjas in Pyjamas, which might explain their short odds with top LoL betting sites.
While there are reasons to believe Weibo Gaming can crush Ninjas in Pyjamas — one of them being WBG’s improved performances in the latter stages of the regular season — they are not consistent enough to be priced as -158.73 favourites. Back the outsiders to cover the map line.
