G2 Esports and Zeta Division: Who will win the first game of the VCT Stage-1 Masters Reykjavik Playoffs

G2 Esports will kick start its campaign tonight at the VCT Stage-1 Masters Reykjavik. The German side qualified for the Reykjavik Masters after becoming the runners-up to the EMEA Stage-1 Challengers.

Meanwhile, after a shaky start in Iceland after losing the Group Stage game against DRX, Zeta Division came back stronger and won back-to-back games against Fnatic and Ninjas in Pyjamas to qualify for the Playoffs.

Prediction

It is quite tough to predict a clear winner for the match as both of these teams have been in excellent form recently. However, it's worth noting that G2 Esports will be playing its first game in the competition. This means that the Japanese side don't have a clear idea of what the team's strategy and playstyle will be.

The surprise factor and the experience this team has under its belt with players like Oscar "Mixwell" Canellas and Zygimantas "nukkye" Chmieliauskas can be determining factors.

Zeta Division also surprised everyone by eliminating EMEA giant Fnatic, followed by another comprehensive win against Ninjas in Pyjamas in back-to-back games. The way the Japanese side has performed since their loss against DRX in the first game of the competition was truly remarkable. The team will surely try to repeat the same tonight to pull off another miracle.
