ALMO Players’ late-June rebuild

ALMO Players come in with Cripple, Ambush, Neczo, Azu, and Predicted, a lineup finalized with three new additions on June 26 that leaves Azu as the most established piece of the roster.

Continuity from the February meeting

When these teams met on February 4, ALMO fielded Faded, GaraXy, alishor, Hammerul, and Azu against WLGaming’s iBo, Tsiperakos, Pallet, Unkn0wn5, and Speedy1, making Azu, Tsiperakos, and Pallet the only returning starters for this rematch.

Organizational experience favors WLGaming

WLGaming Esports have participated in 38 recorded League of Legends tournaments and hit a 71,303 peak audience at European Masters Summer 2020, suggesting a deeper well of big-match experience than the emerging ALMO Players project.

ALMO’s 2026 revolving door before settling on current five

Across 2026 ALMO Players cycled through multiple top, jungle, mid, and support options such as alishor, Hammerul, Faded, Tochas, HandiDog, K1ckbait, and GaraXy before consolidating the current starting lineup, highlighting the organization’s search for the right mix around Azu.

Pick Ideas

Small-value lean toward the home underdog

With ALMO Players on home side and having recently upgraded solo lanes and support, modest plus-money on their moneyline could be attractive if markets still anchor to early-2026 versions of the roster.

Series or map handicap angles for WLGaming

Given WLGaming’s long organizational history and proven presence at events like European Masters, bettors who favor their experience can explore series bets or -1.5 map handicaps rather than an expensive straight moneyline.

Caution on individual player props

Because many laners on both teams only joined during the summer window, projecting kills, deaths, or CS props is difficult without robust recent sample sizes, making conservative exposure or leaning under on inflated lines a prudent approach.

Emphasis on live totals over pre-match over/unders

Limited public data on the tempo and objective control tendencies of these exact five-man configurations means live kill or dragon totals, adjusted after seeing early-game pace, may be safer than committing to pre-match overs or unders.
