Prediction for the match between Counter Logic Gaming – Cloud9
We continue to review the events taking place on the summer stage of the American LCK Championship 2022. We are in for a rather intriguing confrontation between the Counter Logic Gaming and Cloud9 teams. It is worth noting that both squads completed the group stage with a slight difference in the results. Their confrontation will be one of the first battles of the playoff stage. The teams have a long way to go and they will start it with a performance in the first round of the upper bracket of the competition.
Form Cloud9
To be honest, I don't really like Cloud9's result this season. The team finished the group stage in 5th place in the tournament line with a score of 10-8. Moreover, Cloud9 has already met with CLG and it ended in failure. However, that was a bo-1 battle, so you shouldn't attach much importance to this defeat. In circumstances where battles take place in a bo-5 format, the team has a much better chance of winning.

Counter Logic Gaming Uniform
Counter Logic Gaming has a slightly better situation in the group stage, but I would not say that it matters a lot. The team won back to 4th place in the tournament line, with a score of 11-7. Above, I already mentioned the confrontation between these two clubs, which ended with the victory of CLG. This season, the newly formed squad is showing good results. These players were selected after a crushing defeat at LCS Spring 2022. Unfortunately, they are still poorly played, because they will not have enough strength to defeat their opponent.

History of personal confrontations
Previously, the teams held 28 meetings with each other. In most of them, and to be more precise 18 matches, the victory went to the Cloud9 team.
Exodus
We are expecting a confrontation of not quite equal compositions. On the one hand, collected and loved by all Cloud9, and on the other hand, Counter Logic Gaming, a promising lineup, but not having much experience in playing together. As for me, the outcome is obvious and this is the victory of the first. Despite a slightly worse record and one loss to their current opponents, C9 have everything they need to defeat CLG.
Outcome: The Cloud9 team will become the winners of this confrontation.
