AFREECA FREECS VS DRAGONX LCK SPRING SPLIT BETTING PREVIEW
Afreeca Freecs and DragonX will meet this Saturday in what is dubbed as the match of the week in the 2020 League of Legends Champions Korea (LCK). Both sides have yet to taste defeat this season, but the perfect streak will end for one of the two teams this weekend.
Afreeca Freecs got off to a flying start this season, winning all of their opening three fixtures. In Week 1 they bested Hanwha Life Esports and Griffin in very convincing fashion, to which they added a less assured 2-1 win against APK Prince on Wednesday.
The team as a whole operates exceptionally well and it is hard not to be impressed with the key elements of AF’s gameplay. The main carries of the team are ADC Jin “Mystic” Seong-jun and top laner Kim “Kiin” Gi, both of whom have starred so far. We must also give some praise to mid laner Song “Fly” Yong-jun, support Son “Jelly” Ho-gyeong and jungler Lee “Spirit” Da-yoon, who have all contributed to Afreeca Freecs’ 3-0 record.

At the pace Afreeca Freecs are playing now, they seem like one of the strongest teams in the league and possibly one of the frontrunners for the LoL World Championship title. That might seem like a big call so early in the season, but it’s safe to say that it will take a lot to defeat them.
A lot of expectations were put on DragonX ahead of this season, mostly due to their young and talented roster. Many expected DragonX to slowly improve and become one of the best. Instead, they bolted out of the gates with wins over KT Rolster, SANDBOX Gaming and Hanwha Life Esports to take a perfect record into Saturday’s clash.
While the whole squad works well and continues to improve week after week, the inexperience of DragonX’s players remains a big concern. Jeong “Chovy” Ji-hoon and Kim “Deft” Hyuk-kyu have played on the big stage, but Ryu “Keria” Min-seok, Choi “Doran” Hyeon-joon and Hong “Pyosik” Chang-hyeon still have a lot to learn, namely how to play under high-pressure situations.
The inexperience is more of a long-term concern that can become an issue in the playoffs or even at Worlds. As far as their current situation is concerned, however, DragonX are still one of the strongest teams in the LCK and with the help of their experienced head coach, Kim “cvMax” Dae-ho, this squad will remain to be a serious finals contender.
AFREECA FREECS VS DRAGONX LCK SPRING SPLIT BETTING PREDICTIONS
This match will be decided in the jungle, where we will see Pysoik clash with either Spirit or Lee “Dread” Jin-hyeok in what will be a true test for the youngster. The reason why we believe junglers will play a pivotal role is because this bout will be all about momentum. The team that gets ahead in the early stages will most likely go on to win, meaning we have to side with the squad that has proven to be slightly more active in the first minutes of their games. That team is DragonX.
While they might lack the experience of Afreeca Freecs’ players, DragonX have been on a roll recently. With their fast-paced playstyle, they are hard to counter. However, they do not have a clear advantage over Afreeca Freecs, so we are most likely in for a three-map series.
The odds for over 2.5 maps are more appealing than backing DragonX. While we firmly believe the favourites should come out ahead, we can’t imagine them producing a clean sweep against Afreeca Freecs. Expect a 2-1 win for Dragon X.

Here is our betting preview of the fixture with our prediction and betting odds, courtesy of BetOnline.
Afreeca Freecs versus DragonX Betting Preview
- KeSPA Cup Betting: Afreeca Freecs $3.55 | DragonX $1.27
- Where: Korea
- When: Saturday 4th January 2020 15:00 KST
- Watch Live: Youtube
DragonX entered the Korean esports based KeSPA Cup hoping they can showcase the strength of their new roster and they managed to do so with flying colours, considering DragonX (formerly Kingzone DragonX) are entering the semi-finals undefeated in their last three bouts.
DragonX started their KeSpa Cup venture in the elimination round, where they decimated Chungnam (2-0), to which they added another strong display against Spear Gaming in the qualifying round. Following DragonX’s impressive run through the opening stages, they entered the quarter-finals, where they got paired with DAMWON Gaming, however even Kim “Micro” Mok-kyoung and his men proved to be no match for DragonX who swept them in two swift rounds.
There were some worries about DragonX’s strength ahead of 2020 season and rightfully so. They completely revamped their roster earlier in November, when they parted ways with four of their members and replaced them with young talent. Leaving the team were Kim “Rascal” Kwang-hee who left for Gen.G, Moon “Cuzz” Woo-chan who joined T1, Yoo “Naehyun” Nae-hyun who left for Griffin and Park “TusiN” Jong-ik, who joined up with KT Rolster.
On the other side, DragonX signed Choi “Doran” Hyeon-joon and Jeong “Chovy” Ji-hoon from Griffin and promoted Ryu “Keria” Min-seok and Hong “Pyosik” Chang-hyeon to the main roster.
As we have talked about in our previous KeSPA Cup betting preview, DragonX’s success will come down to the development of Doran, Pyosik and Keria, meanwhile, the team will have to heavily rely on Chovy and Deft to deliver with solid performances.
That being said, it’s safe to say all five members played well so far in KeSPA Cup, some even went above and beyond our expectations and for that reason, we are firm believers DragonX are capable of causing some serious damage in LCK this season.
Ahead of them, however, is their toughest test yet, as they face off against an old enemy Afreeca Freecs who just like DragonX are entering 2020 season with a reconstructed roster. Out of all teams, Afreeca Freecs made some of the most surprising moves during off-season, as they convinced former Team WE ADC Jin “Mystic” Seong-jun to return to South Korea after spending five years in China.
Joining Mystic as a fresh arrival is mid laner Song “Fly” Yong-jun from Gen.G, support Nam “Ben” Dong-hyun from Top Esports and support Son “Jelly” Ho-gyeong. It will all come down to Mystic, who will alongside Kim “Kiin” Gi-in play a pivotal role in the team’s success. Other than that, Lee “Dread” Jin-hyeok will have a lot to prove after his less-than-impressive 2019 season.
Afreeca Freecs do carry a lot of potential, and yet they seem like a team that can either impress or fall flat and finish on the wrong side of the league table. There are a lot of questions that need to be answered and while they have already played three games so far in KeSPA Cup, their performance left us with more questions than answers.
Comparing the two sides, www.seclub.top are slightly concerned for Afreeca Freecs, who have made a solid run to the semi-finals, however, failed to look as strong as DragonX. As we see it, Mystic will have a hard time against Deft, who was just phenomenal for DragonX so far this tournament, while Kiin will be put to a tough test against Doran, who has proven to be one of the best top laners in the tournament.
Other than that, Chovy has already proven he is a tough opponent for Fly during last season when they met in the mid lane while playing for their former teams, which leads us to believe DragonX will also enjoy a slight advantage in the mid lane.
All things considered, DragonX are stronger in each lane and should come out of this bout as the winners. Based on everything we have seen, we are confident DragonX are more than capable of producing a clean sweep and punch a ticket for the grand finals.

DragonX vs Chungnam
- Thursday, December 26 – 17:00 KST
DragonX will enter 2020 with a new roster and a new name, having renamed themselves from Kingzone DragonX to DragonX earlier in October.
Returning to the team for another season, we have the bot lane tandem Kim “Daft” Hyuk-kyu and Ryu “Keria” Min-seok. Joining them will be a rookie jungler Hong “Pyosik” Chang-hyeon and two former Griffing players – mid-laner Jeong “Chovy” Ji-hoon, and top laner Choi “Doran” Hyeon-joon.
The acquisition of the former two Griffin players is in our books a solid move, yet we have some questions about Pyosik who doesn’t have any experience playing at the top level. In a way, Doran is also a rookie in LCK, seeing how he has joined Griffin’s starting lineup late in May 2019.
In other team news, DragonX head coach and former Griffin head coach Kim “cvMax” Dae-ho has been banned from participating in League of Legends professional scene, but got the suspension revoked late in November due to a petition from League of Legends community with over 200,000 signatures. That ultimately means he will be coaching DragonX and play a pivotal role in their development.
Despite having two rookies, we don’t believe DragonX should be underestimated heading into 2020, especially seeing how they have an exceptional coach staff, which should help the youngsters develop. All in all, DragonX are bursting with potential and the mix of young and experienced players should result in a very successful season.
As far as this bout is concerned, there is no going around the fact Chungnam ($12.90) are far inferior to DragonX in each and every way. To see them cause any issues to DragoX, let alone win this fixture would arguably be the biggest upset in the history of esports. We don’t expect to see any miracles here.

Jin Air Green Wings vs Spear Gaming
- Thursday, December 26 – 20:00 KST
After an underwhelming season, Jin Air Green Wings ($1.40) will be looking to improve in 2020, but seeing how they have failed to make any massive changes to their team, we have our doubts Green Wings will be able to impress in LCK.
Ahead of 2020 season, Green Wings signed of Cha Ji-hoon as their new head coach, Kwon “Light” Sun-ho as their ADC and Park “Senan” Hee-seok as the team’s new support player. On the other side, Green Wings saw Lee “Bambi” Gyu-bin and Moon “Route” Geom-su both leave the team.
The two arrivals seem very solid, considering Senan previously played for LCK team Afreeca Freecs while Light proved to be one of the best ADC mains in 2019 CK Summer Split. There he averaged 74.2% win rate in and was among the top three in KDA, CSPM and GPM.
Despite some solid additions, yet we have our doubts Green Wings have the needed quality to contest the top spots in LCK. That being said, they are rightfully the favourites to defeat Spear Gaming this Thursday.
Spear Gaming ($2.76) ended last season at the sixth place in CK Summer, which was a solid result, considering it was their first appearance in CK, after they qualified via CK 2019 Summer Promotion under the name BeomSAMA. Now they are entering the new season with high ambitions and a completely new roster, which welcomed four new members to the lineup.?
In December Spear Gaming signed Yoon “Destroy” Jeong-min, Kim “Chasy” Dong-hyeon, Lee “Jaguar” Chae-hwan and Kim “Asper” Tae-gi, while keeping ahold of Kim “Winter” Yo-han, who has been with the team since May 2019.
As we see it, the biggest two additions to the team are Asper and Jaguar, who were previously members of Gen.G and DAMWON Gaming. While neither had a lot of playtime for their teams, being a part of LCK team does make them slightly more valuable due to the experience they gathered.
With Jaguar and Asper as Spear Gaming’s bottom lane, we can expect they will manage to compete with Green Wings’ bottom lane tandem, making this match much closer than what the odds suggest. All things considered, Green Wings should come out ahead, but we believe Spear Gaming should put up a solid fight and chip at least one map off their opponents.
- Prediction: Spear Gaming +1.5 @ $1.58 @ GG Bet
