Nothing's guaranteed for any of these three teams going into the final Group Stage matches. All three have records of 2-1 in their respective groups; ROX Tigers dropped a match to Counter Logic Gaming in Group A, SK Telecom T1 coughed one up against Flash Wolves in Group B, and EDward Gaming lost their opening Group C contest to INTZ e-Sports, one of the two International Wildcards in this 16-team tournament.
None of the four teams in Group D have made it this far unscathed, either. It's a three-way logjam at 2-1 among Team SoloMid (+1000), Samsung Galaxy (+1200) and Royal Never Give Up (+1400).
Only two of these teams will advance to the quarter-finals in Chicago; Samsung Galaxy is generally considered the worst of the three, but that clutch win over Royal Never Give Up on October 1 has captured everyone's attention.
E-Sports Odds: SK Telecom Hanging Tough at LoL Championship?
It's so far, so good for SK Telecom T1 at the 2016 League of Legends World Championship. The defending titleholders are tied with ROK Tigers atop the E-Sports futures market at +175 heading into the final Group Stage matches; EDward Gaming remain the third favorites at +350.
All three teams have records of 2-1 in their respective groups, so they still have some work to do if they want to reach the quarter-finals in Chicago. There's also a three-way logjam at 2-1 in Group D, featuring Team SoloMid (+1000), Samsung Galaxy (+1200) and Royal Never Give Up (+1400).
