REKONIX to win at $3.80 is the opening value play, with the draw sitting shortest and neither team looking safe enough to take at a short H2H price.

Team Nemesis are the shorter team-win option at $2.70, but a 2-0 in this kind of matchup is never comfortable. REKONIX only need one strong draft read and one clean snowball to make the bigger price feel very live.

Team Spirit to win at $3.80 is the upset pick, with the price too big for a side that can still take over any BO2 when their lanes start well.

PARIVISION are favourites at $2.40 and have earned that respect, but Spirit are not a normal outsider. If they get their teamfight heroes and avoid falling behind in the first 15 minutes, they have enough late-game control to sweep this.

MOUZ to win at $2.90 is the H2H play, with the market leaning towards a draw but still leaving a solid team-win price on the stronger sweep angle.

Vici Gaming are tempting at $3.80, but MOUZ look the better side to back if this avoids the split. Their best route is to keep the tempo high, force Vici into uncomfortable map movement and close before the games get too loose.

LGD Gaming to win at $1.38 is short, but it is still the right H2H side against Inner Circle.

Inner Circle are a huge number at $10.00, and the upset would need a near-perfect opening map to build pressure. LGD should have too much structure, better objective control and the stronger closing profile if they get ahead early.

1win to win at $4.00 is another upset swing, with Team Yandex looking too short for a BO2 sweep market.

Yandex are the more reliable side at $2.60, but the draw being priced at $2.05 shows how hard a clean 2-0 is expected to be. 1win have enough quality to punish one poor draft and turn the pressure back on Yandex.

Team OG to win at $3.10 is the final pick, with both team-win prices close and the draw again sitting shortest.

Virtus.pro are only slightly bigger at $3.20, so this is more about the matchup than the number. OG should have the better chance of forcing tempo early, and if they can keep VP away from long, slow farming games, the $3.10 looks playable.
