There’s a lot of familiarity between Top Esports and Bilibili Gaming. The two Chinese teams have extensive experience competing against one another domestically in the LCH, making this a contest where individual execution will be decisive.
Top Esports recovered from their opening defeat against Hanwha Life Esports with consecutive victories over Anyone’s Legend and G2 Esports. Their turnaround has put them within one series victory of reaching the knockout stage.
Bilibili Gaming followed a similar trajectory. After suffering an upset against Movistar KOI in their opening match, they responded quickly by defeating Team Liquid and Karmine Corp in dominant fashion.
Both teams enter the match with momentum, so expect aggressive early game exchanges, considerable focus on the mid lane and lengthy fights around major neutral objectives.

| Statistic | Top Esports | Bilibili Gaming |
|---|---|---|
| 2026 game record | 78-65 | 127-53 |
| Game win rate | 54.5% | 70.6% |
| Worlds 2026 game record | 2-1 | 2-1 |
| Worlds 2026 game win rate | 66.7% | 66.7% |
| Worlds average game duration | 29:58 | 35:32 |
| Worlds dragons per game | 2.33 | 2.33 |
| Worlds barons per game | 1.0 | 0.67 |
These records highlight jut how evenly matched these teams have been in the Worlds thus far. Neither has suffered a defeat since the opening round, and both have shown their great ability to recover under pressure.
However, BLG’s previous success against TES, including their convincing 3-0 victory in the 2026 Road to MSI final, provides an additional reason to favor them.

The individual battles below could ultimately determine which LPL representative secures a quarterfinal spot.
| Matchup | TES Player | BLG Player |
|---|---|---|
| Top | 369 | Bin |
| Jungle | Tian | Xun |
| Mid | Creme | knight |
| Bot | JackeyLove | Viper |
| Support | Zhuo | ON |
Creme against knight is likely the most important individual matchup. Both players are capable of influencing teamfights and creating opportunities across the map, although knight’s outstanding 2026 performances give Bilibili Gaming an advantage to mid lane.
The bot lane contest between JackeyLove and Viper should also be fascinating. Both are experienced carries who can take over games when given sufficient resources, making jungle support and early objective control particularly important.
The Tian vs Xun game will be crucial too, as Tian’s involvement in the opening minutes are extremely important. Especially if TES wants to disrupt BLG’s preferred tempo and prevent their carries from scaling.

Top Esports
BLG enter as our pick, thanks to their stronger domestic track record and the quality of their individual players. However, TES have shown enough resilience during the Swiss Stage to make this far from a guaranteed result.
A three game series looks plausible given both teams’ recent performances and familiarity with one another. TES have the tools to take a game, but BLG’s experience in high pressure matches could make a difference. If you’re looking for an alternative market here, this is the most predictable one to wager one
The match is scheduled for Thursday, October 29th, at 23:00 UTC. The start may change depending on the earlier series.
