OpTic Gaming vs Zeta Division: Who will reach the VCT Stage 1 Masters Reykjavik Grand Final?
Both sides will play a best-of-five series in the VCT Stage 1 Masters Reykjavik to face the Brazilian side Loud in the Grand Final tomorrow. With such high stakes, they are ready to give their all tonight.
Prediction
Considering the current form of both teams, it is pretty challenging to predict a clear winner. However, OpTic Gaming, with its experience and mechanical skills, is the superior of the two sides tonight.
With players like Yay and Victor, backed by Fns' brain, the North American side will be ready for the Japanese challenge tonight.
However, Zeta Division has had a dream run in the Reykjavik Masters. The Japanese side knocked out some big names like Fnatic, Team Liquid, DRX, and Paper Rex from the competition.
The team will surely try to extend the list by pulling off another miracle against OpTic Gaming. Dep, Sugarz3ro, and other members of Zeta are determined to deliver another top-notch performance tonight.
Head-to-heads
The two sides have never met in any official event. Hence, fans will enjoy a new rivalry tonight in the VCT STage 1 Masters Reykjavik.
