The rule with KT Rolster is to fade them as big favourites and back them as underdogs. However, betting against Gen.G looks like a sure way to lose, as they are on a 15-game winning streak in league play and have yet to drop a series in the LCK 2024 Summer.
KT Rolster are +640 underdogs, which gives them just a 13.5% implied probability of winning the series. This is incredibly low, but considering their showings against Kwangdong Freecs and OKSavingsBank BRION over the last two rounds, it is fair to question KT’s chances to defeat the hottest team in the league.
Gen.G are efficient in running over teams that do not do well in the early game, which we should see in effect on Friday. And with side choice, the LCK title favourites will likely close out the first map without spilling too much blood.

T1 seem to have stabilised over the last two weeks and put themselves in a good position to defeat Gen.G on Saturday. The game ended in a crushing 0-2 loss, but it was a significant improvement and T1 should have won the first map.
Nongshim RedForce are the opposite in terms of where they’re trending. RedForce’s quality has fallen over the season, with some glaring issues — namely their abysmal early game.
Nongshim RedForce should have done much better — but not by much, as this squad is still low on individual quality. This series should end in a comfortable victory for T1, and knowing RedForce usually get smoked in losses, taking kill unders on both maps at -116.28 with LoL betting sites makes a lot of sense.
