The two teams will face each other in a best-of-three series tomorrow in their first game of the VCT APAC Stage-1 Challengers.

Considering their form and experience, Oblivion Force has a greater chance of winning the match against their South Asian side tomorrow. The mechanical skillset of the Hong Kong side could be influential in tomorrow's game.
