Crazy Raccoon vs Team Falcons: Who will win the Esports World Cup Overwatch 2 2024 Semi-Final?
Prediction
Fans can expect a high-voltage matchup between Crazy Raccoon vs Team Falcons at the Qiddiya Arena. Both teams are potential contenders for the first-ever Overwatch 2 Esports World Cup and can look forward to the massive prize pool of US$1,050,000.
Crazy Raccoon had a stellar start to their journey as they won all of their group stage matches with a 3-0 scoreline against some big names like Gaimin Gladiators, and Toronto Ultra. As a result, they directly qualified for the quarterfinals stage. Eventually, they thrashed the EU powerhouse ENCE and secured their ticket to the semis. The Asian powerhouse is yet to drop a map in its EWC campaign.
Both DPS LIP and Heesang have showcased exemplary performances so far. Meanwhile, CH0R0NG and Shu have outstanding synergy, with Shu generally playing the primary Support role and CH0R0NG excelling in his secondary Support role.
Additionally, MAX and Junbin usually switch between themselves depending on the maps. MAX specializes in Brawl and Poke Tanks, whereas Junbin specializes in the Control and Flashpoint maps with Dive Tanks. As a whole, Raccoon have showcased stellar performances in both the Dive and Poke gameplay styles.
On the other hand, Team Falcons also had an excellent start to their campaign as they won two of their group stage matches flawlessly but failed against LGD.OA. After facing big teams like M80, and Virtus.pro, this newly formed roster finally qualified for their first-ever semi-final match in Overwatch 2 EWC 2024.
If we get a good look at the roster, Proper and Stalk3r have been the perfect DPS combo in this tournament so far. Meanwhile, Fielder has been an exceptional primary Support role, especially with his Ana plays. ChiYo, on the other hand, properly assists his team as a secondary Support, especially with Lucio.
Similar to Raccoons, Hanbin, and smurf switch their places in the roster depending on the map. Both Tanks have showcased an extraordinary performance regardless of their Poke/Dive playstyle.
Judging from the past results between these two teams, the scales are highly tipped towards Crazy Raccoon’s side. However, Team Falcon’s newly formed roster will surely give their opponents a run for their money.
