Welcome to EGamersWorld.
We continue to keep an eye on what's happening at LoL World Championship 2024. In case you've forgotten, the tournament features the Swiss Stage, where 8 of the 16 teams will advance to the next stage.
We are interested in the 1-0 basket at The International, i.e. those teams that have the best chance to qualify for the play-offs. Among such clubs are FlyQuest and DPlus KIA.
Let's find out who will be stronger in the match DPlus KIA - FlyQuest and pass to the 2-0 basket, and who will continue to play in the 1-1 basket.
Let's go.
DPlus KIA uniforms
We open the DPlus KIA match breakdown with an analysis of DPlus KIA's playing form. In this match they are playing the number one with win odds around 1.2.
In the season before last Dplus were still DAMWON, but it does not change the essence of the matter. Back then, Korea's top team finished top 3 at LCK Spring 2022 and top 4 at LCK Summer 2022.
Thanks to a win at LCK Regional Finals 2022, the team went to Worls 2022. The World Championships ended with a play-offs loss in a colourful match against Gen.G with a score of 2-3.
After rebranding, Dplus put together a new roster. There was an attempt to make some sort of "super" team, but that story doesn't work too well in LCK.
- Dplus roster: Kingen, Lucid, ShowMaker, Aiming, Kellin.
Reigning world champion Deft didn't help Dplus much at the first tournament after the rebranding. At LCK Spring 2023, Dplus finished in the top 5, which is not good.
At LCK Summer 2023, Dplus made it to the play-offs in 4th place, 11-7. That's better than T1.
However, LCK Summer 2023 Dplus KIA did not stay in the play-offs for long. In the first round of LCK Summer 2023 Playoffs Dplus Ledge and T1 with the score 1-3, leaving the main stage of the prestigious championship early.
The team made it to Worlds 2023 thanks to a second place finish at the South Korean regional finals. To do so, they first outplayed DRX (3-0) and then HLE (3-1).
Dplus opened up Worlds 2023 with a match against G2 Esports. The titular Koreans were weaker than the best team in Europe and went into the set 0-1.
There, Dplus played their fellow countrymen from KT Rolster. And again Worlds 2022 champion Deft and their distinguished colleagues lost: now Dplus had 0-2.
After falling into the relegation zone, Dplus finally got their act together and showed their game. They knocked BDS out of the tournament and now continue the arduous march to the play-offs. They later outplayed GAM Esports and came out on top 2-2, but in the final match Ledge or KT Rolster, thus forfeiting a chance at the play-offs.
After a slightly dismal Worlds 2024, DPlus KIA took the top 5, closing out the LCK Spring 2024 regular season with a score of 9-9.
In the first play-offs match, DPlus pulled off a mini-sensation. They defeated their more title contender KT Rolster in a very difficult bo5. Next was a match against Gen.G, which Dplus almost won, but still fell short on the fifth map and as a result lost 2-3. Dplus KIA finished in the top 4, which is pretty good.
In the LCK Summer 2024 play-offs DPlus KIA were quite confident, having played the main season with a score of 13-5. In their debut match at the LCK Summer 2024 Playoffs, they defeated FearX 3-1. However, defeating Gen.G in the next match was an all-star task, and it proved impossible for DPlus KIA. Next up was a loss to T1 and a final top 4 finish.
After a not so successful LCK Summer 2024, DPlus KIA played at LCK Regional Finals 2024, where they made it to Worlds 2024 on their first attempt, beating T1.
They started at Worlds 2024 with a solid win over Fnatic.

FlyQuest Form
We continue to watch the match FlyQuest - DPlus KIA with the analysis of FlyQuest's game form. In this match they will play as an outsider with odds to win at around 4.
FlyQuest have been on the professional scene since 2017. Back then, they were hanging around somewhere in the middle, ranking from top 7 to top 7.
The following years were also unsuccessful: in 2018 the peak was TOP-6 at LCS Summer 2018, then TOP-4 at LCS Spring already in 2019. The turning point was the 2020 season, when FlyQuest made it to the Worlds 2020 after twice making Top 2 at home. However, it wasn't too bad to take special heights there, though: TOP-12 for a FlyQuest ranked team can be considered a success.
In the season 2021 and 2022 the team played "standard" for themselves. The average was top-6.
At LCS Spring 2023, the team finished second in the group stage, losing to Cloud9. The team won the group stage with a score of 14-4.
- FlyQuest lineup: Bwipo, Inspired, Jensen, Massu, Busio.
The team lost to the leaders of the standings Cloud9, Evil Geniuses, Team Liquid and TSM. However, having played each of the teams twice, FlyQuest took one match each.
The team had no net defeats in the group stage. The team did not participate in any third-party events.
In the first match of the play-offs FlyQuest played with 100 Thieves. The opponent, who nominally could compete with FQ, was unable to take even a map: the match ended with a 3-0 defeat in favour of FlyQuest. After a successful Long Sogpeg, FlyQuest made it to the Top 3 before losing to Golden Guardians 2-3 in the finals match, thus being left out of Worlds 2023.
In 2024, FlyQuest made it to the LCS Top 2 and eventually made it to MSI 2024. Mid-Season Invitational (MSI) 2024 started off with a very surprising 2-1 win over PSG Talon. In the match to qualify for the Bracket Stage FlyQuest expectedly Ledge or T1 with a score of 0-2. And then there was a rematch of PSG Talon and FlyQuest left MSI 2024 on the 10th line.
At LCS Summer 2024 the team took the top 3 with the score 5-2. In the play-offs FlyQuest defeated NRG 3-1 and then very unexpectedly beat C9 3-1. By reaching the final of the top set, they guaranteed themselves an appearance at Worlds 2024. The cherry on the cake was winning the grand final.
They made their Worlds 2024 debut with a class win over GAM Esports.
