Team Secret lost their opening match against SBTC Esports (0-2) but bounced back with a 2-1 victory against Team Flash on Thursday. Although a shaky start to the split, we believe this team is capable of great things, mainly due to their jungler Đỗ “DNK” Ngọc Khải, who ended the series against Flash with a combined score of 19/8/21.
Secret’s next opponents, CERBERUS Esports, are undefeated after two rounds of play, having picked up wins against GAM Esports (2-1) and SBTC Esports (2-1). What’s more, CERBERUS are 2-0 up in the head-to-head against Secret, but that doesn’t guarantee them success on Saturday.
From the limited film we have on the teams, we have found that CERBERUS’s only real advantage is their strong lanes. However, Teams Secret have showcased a better sense for macro play, which should earn them at least one map.

We’re very early into the season, making these huge price differences hard to explain. Even though Saigon Buffalo look stronger on paper, they’ve only beaten one team so far (2-0 against Team Flash).
Saigon Buffalo and SBTC Esports last met in March, when Buffalo won 2-0. However, SBTC has since replaced its entire roster, adding a couple of highly talented players from the region, including jungler Nguyễn “Penguin” Đăng Khoa, who already has two MVPs.
One thing that could work against SBTC is their weak early game, but they seem to work well as a unit, which should help them turn the game around in the mid-late game if they fall behind. Saigon Buffalo might still end up justifying their tag as the favourites, but we haven’t seen enough from them to believe they can do so without dropping a map.
