Total Over 2.5

OpTic Gaming and Version1 will meet in the fourth round of the VCT 2022: North America Challengers 1 group stage. I have no doubt that the meeting will be as equal as possible, since one needs a victory, while the second is the undisputed leader of the tournament table.

Form OpTic Gaming

The third team in the North American rankings had a poor start at VCT 2022: North America Challengers 1, sensationally losing to Rise. However, the team managed to wake up further, having outplayed the Sentinels as well. In any case, OpTic Gaming has just crazy experience on the international scene, so the team has every right to be considered a favorite. On the plus side, we should not forget that if we win here, the team will advance to the playoffs of the championship.

The fifth team in the North American ranking has changed a lot with the arrival of Oderus, confidently qualifying for VCT 2022: North America Challengers 1.

OpTic Gaming Match Statistics — Version1

The victory of OpTic Gaming within VCT 2021: North America Stage 2 Challengers 1 with a score of 2:1.

Match Prediction OpTic Gaming — Version1

I wouldn't be surprised if Version1 picks Fracture and takes the map as the team looks really cool on it. Otherwise, however, OpTic Gaming has a lot of experience and potential to lose a fundamental game so easily. Therefore, here I propose to bet more on Total on cards 2.5.
