I want to tally up the numbers. who do you guys think is going to win
ZETA DIVISION - 7
Team Secret - 2
It is mainly copium, but that’s okay 🥲. I hope that the fans stay respectful, too, no matter the result.
ZETA DIVISION has just started to bounce back recently, and after a win against GenG they have secured their spot as 4th seed in playoffs. However, what’s next for the squad? Can they even make Tokyo? Short answer? no. Long answer? hopium is on the horizon. Let’s take a closer look at ZETA DIVISION’s chances of at least grabbing that 3rd place in playoffs.
Currently, ZETA is the only team to have a negative round differential AND map differential while still having more match wins than losses. Is that bad? Good? I guess you could say bad, but guess what? At the end of the day, playoff matches only care about if you win the bo3 or lose it. So, I think this is an advantage for Japan’s last hope.
I know I’m kind of going all over the place, but I want to talk about ZETA’s first opponent: Seed 5. With the Regular Season coming to a close, there are two potential opponents: RRQ and TS. ZETA have beaten both of these teams, but I’m not that naive to say that ZETA will win based off that alone. But guess what? It doesn’t matter. ZETA will drop to the lower bracket regardless because of the Korea powerhouse DRX waiting for them in the Upper Semifinal. This is exactly what ZETA DIVISION need, though. Let me explain.
PLAYOFF BUFF + TOKYO BUFF + LOWER BRACKET BUFF = RECIPE FOR SUCCESS
From multiple instances, we can see that ZETA DIVISION thrives under pressure (Reykjavik 2022, League Play). Although they are slow starters, when they wake up they WAKE UP. Not to mention, Dep, SugarZ3ro, and crow (yes, crow) have already woken up. For crow, yes, he’s kind of trolling with his stats. But, there have been a LOT more bright sports for him as of late. I think with playoffs he will bump up that <1.00 rating to a 1.00 (hopefully). Laz is a good player, but the role change has made him seem somewhat uncomfortable. He has started to get into the groove, though, and I think he will shape up. And then there’s TENNN. He’s unstoppable during one match and he has ratings worse than crow during the other. His rating will be more consistent during playoffs. He is the 4th quarter player for ZETA DIVISION.
Most likely, ZETA DIVISION will play either Paper Rex or T1 for a Tokyo qualification spot. PRX is a tough opponent, and their aggressive style is the complete opposite of ZETA’s more passive play. something has their number, so I think it is a 25-75 in favor of PRX. However, ZETA has countered PRX’s style before and I believe they have something (no pun intended) cooking. So, not all hope is lost. How about T1? I think it is 60-40 in ZETA’s favor, honestly. The buffs combined with the earlier loss to T1 buff I feel tips the momentum in ZETA DIVISION’S favor.
To be honest, most of this is speculation but here’s my humble opinion.
Chances of making Tokyo:
DRX - 95%
PRX - 75%
T1 - 45%
ZETA - 45%
TS - 30%
RRQ/GenG - 10%
Let me know what you guys think! :D
TLDR - ZETA DIVISION’S ticket to Tokyo lies in their multiple activated buffs. Their chances are not as slim as one might think.
in all seriousness though, everyone including crow has stepped it up recently. Let’s see if they can make it to Tokyo!
Dep drops 69 per map
SugarZ3ro clutches five 1v5’s
Laz says “it’s lazzin’ time”
TENNN locks down the site
crow is emotional support
may the best team qualify to tokyo!
welp wrong side of the bracket but at least they made it 🫡
‘//,
to be fair I made this pred before I knew something was on the roster
I don’t think they’re necessarily weak, it’s just that I feel that the other teams are stronger. TSM has great players, but I don’t know if they have the secret sauce.
Doesn’t Group A seem a little bit more stacked? I feel like OR and MAD are not very strong, not to mention FaZe isn’t in their best shape either. Group A, on the other hand, has DSG with yay, Shopify with vanity, M80, a decent-looking OXG, and a decent-looking Turtle Troop. There is an argument for Shopify and TSM to be weaker teams, but I think they are definitely stronger than OR and MAD.
LOUD vs LEV
i know zeta doesnt play haven that often, but how do they look worse than when they played drx 😭 my favorite team nooooooooooo
my pickem is in fact the pickem of all time
Top 3 in each region’s playoffs qualify for Tokyo. In EMEA it’s Top 4, though.
ZETA 2-0 PRX
hopefully ZETA will be here and make it to Tokyo (no hope for dfm 💀)
TLN 2-1 ZETA
kinda interesting to see how this one plays out. 4 OG Absolute Jupiter players (If takej plays)
