League of Legends Worlds 2024 Semifinals: Bilibili Gaming vs Weibo Gaming Prediction, Livestream Information, and More

In the inaugural semifinal of the 2024 League of Legends World Championship, Bilibili Gaming will go up against Weibo Gaming. The victor of this matchup, which pits the first seed against the fourth seed, will secure a place in the finals, where they will meet the winner of the other semifinal, featuring T1 versus Gen.G.

This contest marks a repeat of the 2023 LoL Worlds semifinals, where Weibo Gaming clinched victory with a thrilling 3-2 finish. Despite minor roster changes for both teams this time around, fans are eager to see if history will repeat itself.

This article will delve into the recent performances of Weibo Gaming (WBG) and Bilibili Gaming (BLG) while making predictions for the semifinals showdown.

Bilibili Gaming vs Weibo Gaming in 2024 League of Legends Worlds: Who will emerge victorious?

Although Bilibili Gaming secured an early win in the League of Legends Worlds 2024 Swiss Stage, they faced two back-to-back defeats that nearly led to their elimination—first against LNG Esports (LPL) and then against T1 (LCK). Nevertheless, BLG rebounded with victories over PSG Talon and G2 Esports to clinch their playoff position.

In the Playoffs, BLG went head-to-head with Hanwha Life Esports (HLE), the champions of the LCK Summer 2024. Despite many believing BLG would falter due to lackluster performances, the team triumphed over HLE, winning 3-1. Key players like Elk and knight delivered outstanding performances, with the team exemplifying superb macro strategies and team coordination.

On the flip side, Weibo Gaming entered the 2024 League of Legends Worlds as the fourth seed from the LPL, following a disappointing showing in their region. After suffering a grand final defeat to T1 in the 2023 Worlds, WBG made some roster adjustments. However, their newly formed Top-Jungle combination of Breathe and Tarzan struggled to adapt to the latest meta.

WBG barely clinched a Playoff spot with a 3-2 record during the Swiss Stage, and their victories were hardly convincing. Many fans anticipated their downfall while facing LPL’s second seed, LNG Esports, in the Playoffs.

However, WBG’s performance stunned critics as they dispatched LNG with an impressive display. Top laner Breathe shined through the series, utilizing champions such as Gnar and Jax effectively.

Prediction: Weibo Gaming is anticipated to overcome Bilibili Gaming with a 3-2 score.
