Match Prediction: ex-ATK - ex-Snakes Den | CS2 (CS:GO)
Thunderpick World Championship 2023: North American Qualifier #1ex-ATK and ex-Snakes Den will meet in the quarterfinals of the Thunderpick World Championship 2023 North America Series 1, where they will fight for the right to stay in contention for a trip to the main event.
Obviously, the now former ATK roster is much stronger than the now former Snakes Den roster. And rumour has it that the favourite will be picked by M80 Esports, an organisation looking to break into the professional scene.
As for this fight, I don't have a lot of faith in ex-Snakes Den, who even though they have managed to accelerate, they are still behind in terms of their level. So here I would bet on a win for the ex-ATK team.
