Team Queso Will win

Team Queso and S2G Esports will meet in the second semi-final of the VALORANT Challengers Ascension 2023: EMEA Play-In. While the Spaniards made it straight into the play-offs, S2G Esports had to go through the Last Chance groups.

And yet, for me personally, Team Queso remains a key favourite of the championship as their names and potential are ahead of their opponents.

No, the Turkish team can also be singled out, but I have a little less faith in them at this point. In general, S2G Esports is clearly ready to put up a fight. Still, here I would lean on Team Queso to win.

Forecast for the match Team Queso - S2G Esports

I guess I'll stick with my own, because in my opinion, Team Queso has a lot of potential. Yes, you can talk about the numbers all you want, but any Turkish team is famous for instability.

In general, S2G Esports can already be praised, especially the team has played more than any of their remaining opponents for two games. Still, for me, the Turks are not a contender to qualify for the main stage.

Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on Team Queso's victory.
