0:2 (DRX)

Global Esports and DRX will play in the second round of the VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: Pacific League group stage. I don't think there is any intrigue here, as the South Koreans are objectively stronger than the hodgepodge.

And it's hard to berate Global Esports in terms of play, but as a team it's downright disappointing. Against this background, the South Korean team has all the cards in hand, and logically everything tilts towards defeat.

So here I would look at the smashing victory of the DRX team, which is already two heads stronger than Global Esports, which started the championship with a loss.

I do not see the intrigue in this match because everyone is aware of the possibilities DRX. In turn, for Global Esports there are big questions, although the guys are really trying. Still, I'll stick to the logic that speaks in favor of the South Koreans. Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on a 2-0 DRX victory.
