ECSTATIC Will win
K23 and ECSTATIC will meet in the quarterfinals of Malta Vibes Knockout Series 5. Judging by how the last face-to-face meeting went, the Danes really have more chances here. And I would like to leave all the talk about the honesty of ECSTATIC, since a lot has already been said about this.
Form K23
The 19th world ranked team got off to a great start at the Funspark ULTI 2021 Finals by shutting out Astralis. However, in the next meetings, the team failed to repeat the success, leaving the tournament. Nevertheless, K23 quickly bounced back against easier opponents, getting two clean sheets. But given the team's recent experience with ECSTATIC, it's possible that the guys will start flaming early.

With all due respect to K23, but the last face-to-face meeting hit the morale of the team hard. At the same time, the Danes did not seem to notice all the conversations on Twitter, continuing to push and improve their game. Therefore, here I propose to bet on the victory of the ECSTATIC team.
