Predicted result of Azure Ray vs Team Secret
Team Secret, despite the return of two players, still do not look very convincing, while Azure Ray made a great mark at The International and strengthened their squad at the end of the World Championship. Let's bet on the victory of Azure Ray team.
Azure Ray is the 6th team in the world ranking. The organisation's performance at The International 2023 was phenomenal in my eyes, managing to climb up to 4th place in the standings. For some reason the roster undergoes changes and the old guys Somnus(2), chalice(3) and fy(4) leave the team. In their place come Xm, Xxs and XinQ respectively. It's still hard to judge, but the previous squad at least looked more confident.
Team Secret is the 9th team of the world ranking. Unfortunately, they failed to get through the European qualifications for The International 2023, taking only the 4th place. Of course, after such a performance Puppey could not leave everything as it was and the team left Armel and Fbz. They were replaced by the old man MidOne and their former player BOOM, despite his very controversial performance in the previous period in the organisation.
I honestly have faith in this lineup from Secret. They've been playing together for a long time, BOOM has been on the team before and it won't be hard to adjust to him. MidOne and Puppey also have experience together. Perhaps they can play on the map against the Chinese.
I'm a prognosticator, that's all I live for. I devote all my time to it. No other interests.
I've been doing it for a long time and have achieved some success in it. It's up to everyone to believe me or not. But why not give it a try? Maybe you like this kind of life!
