Karmine Corp’s runner-up performance at last year’s First Stand event helped it retain its status as one of the strongest LEC teams, even if that isn’t as high a bar as it once was. With Los Ratones participating in this year’s LEC season, the looming question is whether the newcomer team can dethrone one of the long-standing teams of the region.

Los Ratones vs Karmine Corp match overview

Karmine Corp is kicking off this LEC split by adding a new mid-laner and support in kyeahoo and Busio, respectively. While both additional players have professional experience, there’s a chance that they may struggle to cooperate as required in such a high-stakes match effectively. Considering Caliste needs the support of his mid-laner and support to reliably scale, this could cause major issuess for the team. That’s especially true against Los Ratones, which hasn’t seen any recent roster changes.

Los Ratones started the current split by facing Fnatic. While the match was going well, Velja and Crownie showcased their lack of experience playing against skilled pro players by unnecessarily reengaging with the enemy, leading to the team’s loss. LR has the skill to compete against teams such as KC, but victory will likely only come to it if Los Ratonas’ players learn from that first match and play to their strengths this time.

Seeing how Los Ratones is being uncharacteristically passive in its first match during this split, there’s a strong chance that KC’s Canna could get a quick early kill against Baus in the top lane, especially if Yike goes for an early gank. This makes siding with Karmine Corp getting the first blood a potentially good idea based on the available odds.

Los Ratones has skilled players, while Karmine Corp has the experience and confidence to know when and how to defend. Because of this, it wouldn’t be surprising if the match goes the distance, so taking the over on the game lasting 31.5 minutes could be the way to go.

Ultimately, while the game will likely be close, Los Ratones has a real possibility of causing an upset if it plays to its strengths and makes the clever plays fans have seen from the team in prior years.
