Predicted result of Team Tickles vs Level UP
Team Tickles are in a better shape than their opponents, who they have recently outplayed. Let's bet on a win for Team Tickles.
Team Tickles is the 45th team of the world ranking. Quite a strong roster with very strong players from the European region. They did well in the open qualifications for ESL One Kuala Lumpur, losing only one map to Alliance. But unfortunately for them the closed qualifications were much more difficult and the guys could not compete on equal terms with such teams as Liquid and Secret. They take the 5th-6th place and accordingly do not get to the tournament.
Level Up - 47th team of the world ranking. I don't quite understand what's going on with the roster, but Focus, Stojkov, Ekki, Desire, Kidaro are announced for the tournament. I haven't seen this squad in the game yet and I don't think there is anything to judge, but on paper it looks good.
Tickles are much better in terms of results. They are on a good winstreak, if you don't count defeats against strong Liquid and Secret. Level Up are losing to everyone, and in the last match they couldn't even take a card from the young Navi. I think it's simple.
I'm a prognosticator, that's what I do for a living. I devote all my time to it. No other interests.
I've been doing this for a long time and I've had some success with it. Whether you believe me or not is up to you. But why not give it a try? Maybe you like this kind of life too!
