World Game Star Shape
In previous reviews, I described the team's statistics in detail, so this time I will not go into it, I will only talk about the tournament path. The team played the group stage quite mediocrely, only 3 out of 7 matches were won, but this did not prevent the players from going to the playoffs. The first game of the upper bracket was just the same against future opponents from Maru Gaming, and it ended not in their favor with a score of 2-1. But the second match was against the leader of the DRX group, and here World Game Star had no chance, losing 0-2, they went to the lower bracket, where they still managed to choose a place in the semi-finals, defeating Spear Gaming 2-1.

Match prediction
It is difficult to say who will win, because both teams showed a similar performance in the group stage, and in general they are almost equal in strength. In the ranking of Korean teams, they occupy 5th and 4th places, but still Maru Gaming, in their march along the lower bracket, easily dealt with On Sla2ers, and they were considered favorites and left the group from second place. I think, albeit with difficulty, but they will be able to overcome old opponents and get into the final.
The result is the victory of Maru Gaming.
