From the lower division of Southeast Asia, we are moving to more significant confrontations in the upper division.
The duel between Team SMG and Neon Espots may not be iconic on paper, but don't be deceived. These teams are showing a very “vague” level of performance in the second season, which will make the result of this match more difficult to predict.
In any case, we will try.
Team SMG Uniform
The favorites in this match will be Team SMG. Well deserved.
Last season, SMG declared themselves as a team capable of fighting the best teams in the region. In the new season, the “oldies” were blown away at the start, but quickly rehabilitated.
Team SMG roster
- midone
- MOON
- Raging Potato
- ah-fu
- ninjaboogie
And although the team is eminent and has shown its capacity more than once, I cannot call it consistently strong. Individual performers sometimes do completely indistinct things, and not by anyone in particular, but by passing the baton to each other.
Team SMG latest match results
- Technical defeat by T1
- Technical defeat by Motivate.Trust Gaming
- 2-0 victory over Execration
- Lost to T1 0-2
- 2-1 victory over Polaris Esports
The last series against Polaris Esports surprised me. I was sure that Polaris could handle the SMGs, but something unimaginable happened on the second and third maps.
Team SMG Heroes
Most picked Bane heroes in 7.31: Bane (2 matches, 100% win rate), Tiny (1 match, 100% win rate), Leshrac (1 match, 100% win rate).
The above characters are the most successful.
Neon Esports Uniform
Neon Esports will be chasing in this match. It's not hard to guess why.
For starters, Neon's recent performance, which dropped with the start of the new season. The second reason is that before the start of the new season, Neon Esports made several key replacements, which did not help much, as we can see.
Neon Esports roster
- Asta`
- avataRmod3
- Enryu
- jing
- Abeng-
The Philippine five is far from the standards of the Singaporean major, and it is unlikely that they will be able to repeat the success of almost two years ago. The key players of that squad were stretched across the clubs.
Neon Esports Latest Match Results
- 2-1 victory over Army Geniuses
- Lost to Execration 0-2
- Lost to Fnatic 1-2
- Defeated Execration 2-1
- Lost to BOOM 0-2
Obviously, the BOOM and Fnatic rank teams are a very difficult opponent for the updated Neon roster. Unfortunately for them, SMGs look just as good as Fnatic.
Neon Esports Heroes
Most picked Neon Esports heroes in patch 7.31: Weaver (15 matches, 40% win rate), Bane (14 matches, 57% win rate), Leshrac (13 matches, 61% win rate).
The most successful Neon Esports heroes in patch 7.31: Batrider (2 matches, 100% win rate), Disruptor (2 matches, 100% win rate), Phantom Lancer (2 matches, 100% win rate).
History of personal confrontations
Previously, the teams played each other twice in these lineups. Each team won 1 match.
The outcome of the fight
I am confident in the fight from Neon and I believe that they will be able to take 1 card.
Result: +1.5 Neon Esports.
