How the model works
The LCK chance starts at the current price and follows the week's move in the Finals MVP market for Knight, which reacts to bracket results as they land and was the strongest-ranked input in the scan.
- Each weekly move in Knight's Finals MVP chance shifts the LCK's title chance by about 0.33 in log-odds in log-odds, since a Knight run points to a Korea-China final. DataSnack's author expected 0.35 in log-odds; the data say 0.33 in log-odds ± 0.16, fitted on the same days the replay scores. Fits past data roughly.
