Predictions
Orangutan had a dominant performance in their region's Challenger's League. However, the team has looked a little shaky coming into the Ascension event. Orangutan needs this win to still have a chance of qualifying for the Playoffs.
DPlus Esports had an almost flawless run in Split 1 and 2 in their Challengers League. Their performance was very dominant in Korea. However, they also haven't been able to show great results in the Ascension event.
