Edward Gaming	versus	I MAY

Odds: Match Up Winner - Edward Gaming 1/7 - I MAY 4/1

Edward Gaming

Edward Gaming is a Chinese competitive League of Legends team, founded in 2013.

EDG had a rough start to the 2015 LPL Spring Split, playing several games without ClearLove. They were however able to bounce back, finishing 2nd in Group B, slightly behind Royal Never Give Up. In the playoffs, EDG was able to sweep Snake Esports 3-0 and then won automatically against Qiao Gu Reapers due to QG forfeiting the match. In the finals, EDG faced off against Royal Never Give Up and despite EDG being the favorites going into the match, they lost 1-3 and finished in 2nd place, failing to qualify for the 2016 Mid-Season Invitational. Once summer came, EDG was placed in Group A of the 2016 LPL Summer Split. This split would be the start to EDG's resurgence as the team finished with an undefeated 16-0 regular season. In the 2016 LPL Summer Playoffs EDG would defeat Team WE 3-2 in the semifinals, setting them up for a rematch against Royal Never Give Up. In clean fashion, EDG was able to defeat RNG in a 3-0 sweep and reclaim the LPL championship while also qualifying for the 2016 World Championship as China's #1 seed. ~ source

I MAY

IMay is a Chinese team participating in the LPL. They are currently owned by former pro player Wh1t3zZ.

IMay was formed in May of 2016 after they acquired EDward Esports's roster. Being placed in Group B of the 2016 LPL Summer Split, IMay's performance was solid to inconsistent at worst. They would finish the regular split with 9 wins and 7 losses. Right before playoffs, the team was purchased by former Royal Club mid laner Wh1t3zZ. Going into playoffs, expectations for IMay weren't great but they would surprise a lot of people with their results. Defeating Invictus Gaming and Snake Esports in the first few rounds, they would fall 2-3 in a close series to Royal Never Give Up during the Semifinals. In the 3rd place match against Team WE, IMay would rebound and win the series 3-1 to finish 3rd.

During the 2016 LPL Regional Qualifiers, IMay faced off in a rematch against Team WE. With the series being tied 2-2, IMay was at a huge disadvantage in the final game but they managed to make a huge comeback, winning the series and qualifying for the 2016 World Championship as China's #3 seed in their first LPL split ~ source
