SHG took the previous LCP meeting 2–1 over DFM on May 3, 2026, giving DFM a clear revenge narrative as the teams clash again.
SourceImpact of SHG's 2026 roster overhaul
SHG's 2026 lineup built around star mid laner Aria with veterans Evi and Marble plus newcomers Van and Vsta under coach CorGi has transformed the team into one of the LJL's most talent-dense rosters.
SourceTop lane contrast between Evi and DFM's options
Evi's experience in high-pressure series gives SHG a steady top lane anchor, while DFM can shuffle between Momo and RayFarky to adapt their lane matchups and side choice from draft to draft.
SourceMid lane duel: Aria vs Fisher
The mid lane pits Aria's proactive roaming and playmaking for SHG against Fisher's control-mage-heavy champion pool for DFM, as seen in recent picks like Anivia and Viktor.
SourceDFM's jungle-support engage combinations
DFM's ability to pair Citrus on initiator junglers such as Jarvan IV and Skarner with supports like Woody or Gaeng gives them varied engage tools that can challenge SHG's backline positioning.
SourceForm and rankings heading into Split 3 clash
Despite both sides dropping their last five series, SHG enters ranked #12 in Strafe's world list compared to DFM at #35, suggesting market respect still leans toward the Hawks.
SourcePick Ideas
Moneyline: Favor SHG if price isn't inflated
SHG's 53% win rate and 10–9 record in recent matches, combined with strong overall KDA profiles across Evi, Van, Aria, Marble, and Vsta, justify taking them straight up on the moneyline if odds remain within a reasonable range.
Map handicap: DFM +1.5 maps for a tighter series
DFM's six-man roster featuring Woody, RayFarky, Citrus, Fisher, Kakkun, and Momo gives them flexibility to craft multiple looks over a best-of series, making a +1.5 maps handicap appealing for bettors expecting them to avoid a sweep.
Total maps over 2.5 to capture volatility
Comparable talent across both lineups and multi-threat compositions for SHG and DFM suggest neither side is overwhelmingly dominant, so an over 2.5 total maps play can capitalize on a likely back-and-forth series.
Player prop: Marble kills over
With Marble averaging 4.6 kills per game and a 3.86 KDA over 32 Split 1 contests, betting his kills over in a competitive series where SHG often funnels resources bot can be attractive.
Player prop: Citrus early-game impact
Citrus frequently pilots early-engage junglers such as Jarvan IV and Skarner for DFM, making props around his combined kills plus assists or early objective participation a compelling angle for aggressive game scripts.
Longshot: DFM outright upset
Experienced coaching from Paz and TaNa combined with DFM's history as a perennial regional contender makes a small-stake play on the DFM outright win viable for bettors chasing higher returns.
