Azure Ray vs Titan Prediction: Who will turn out to be stronger?

Prediction for the match Azure Ray and Titan which will take place on January 7. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Team Azure Ray has been heavily renewed since TI12 twice now. First Somnus and FY left, Lanm left as well and replaced by Xm and XinQ, former Team Aster Xxs offliner will also join the team along with former Vici Gaming coach Liekkas. Few believed in the updated roster, but they won the first major tournament of the new season ESL One Kuala Lumpur 2023.

But after the first serious title, Xm, Xxs, XinQ quickly left the team and moved to Xtreme Gaming, and Ori, Faith_bian and fy took their place. All the players who came were inactive, finishing their careers and didn't play anywhere for a year, so you shouldn't expect good results from AR at once. Closed qualification at BetBoom Dacha will be the first serious test for the new roster.

The new Chinese pack of experienced players with old eLeVeN at the helm successfully overcame the first Open Qualifier, beating Indonesian team MAG.Indonesia 2:0 in the final. The Titan lineup is represented by the first position kerry flyfly (who played for a long time in Invictus Gaming, but last season sat in Piggy Killer), mider Setsu (who previously played in RNG and Vici Gaming, but for the last six months did not play anywhere), tyr-2 supports from China in the form of Mercy and Undyne_, and the previously mentioned offliner old eLeVeN, who just over a year ago left Xtreme Gaming and did not play anywhere else.

This pack has little chance to make it to the main tournament, but thanks to a couple of games in the open qualification this Chinese team may even have an advantage in the game with AR, which may affect the BO1 games.

Bookmakers highlight Azure Ray as the clear favorite for this game and that's more due to the tag. It's important to realize that this is a BO1 format match where anything and anyone can happen, and it's also important to remember that AR has three substitutes who haven't played anywhere for a long time.
