KT Rolster vs CFO match analysis
KT Rolster’s performance seems to be the epitome of a coin toss. The team sometimes plays terribly, but other times it beats some of the strongest professional teams in the world. Deokdam is a reliable ADC who has carried the side to victory multiple times, and Bdd has successfully laned against some of the game’s strongest mid laners.
CFO’s strongest player is its jungler JunJia, who has shown more impressive gameplay than KT’s Cuzz, but its bottom and middle lanes are also consistently good and may actually be able to keep up with KT, even on a good day for the LCK squad.

The match is likely to be closer than most would assume based on names and regions alone. Both teams have showcased immense growth in a short period of time, but don’t yet have any major victories to their name. With their skills being close, it wouldn’t be surprising if the match goes the distance and fans see a fifth game in the series. Taking the over on 4.5 games played has a potentially good return, making it a good bet to bank on. Another good bet may be siding with CFO securing the first blood, considering it’s the more aggressive team when looking at the Swiss Stage matches.
JunJia is the better jungler, but his playing style revolves around securing kills instead of objectives. CFO is still more likely to get the first dragon, Baron, and Atakhan, primarily thanks to the team roaming the map more effectively. While KT’s vision game is solid, it isn’t as strong in team fights, which most jungle objectives will be centered around.

KT Rolster vs CFO betting picks & predictions
Both teams did well to qualify for the knockout stage, but the difference in opposition faced along the way can’t be ignored. KT went through relatively easy teams like MKOI and Secret Whales, while CFO battled T1, AL, and HLE en route to establishing itself as a low-key potential favorite. KT’s unreliable play and limited champion pool may be what hold it back from winning a fifth game against CFO, ultimately seeing the team eliminated from Worlds.
Best pick
- CFO to get first blood @ 1.88: Recent stats show that CFO is the more aggressive team initially as it consistently secures first blood.
- Total maps to be over 4.5 @ 2.40: This match is likely to be back-and-forth, suggesting that it’ll go the distance as both teams take turns using champions they’re more proficient with and taking advantage of winning drafts.
