Quincy Crew vs Team Aster: Will Aster come to their senses?

The group stage of The International 10 has come to an end. Teams from the CIS managed to please their fans and get into the top draw, albeit not without problems. Otherwise, the group stage offered few surprises, with the Chinese teams dominating and South America weaker than the rest.

On October 12, the Quincy Crew and Team Aster will play their opening game in the playoffs of the lower bracket of The International 10. We will soon find out which team will be stronger and maintain their place in the tournament.

Quincy Crew looked relatively weak in the group stage, and before the final day, they were one of the leading contenders to drop out of the tournament. However, on the last game day of the group stage of The International 10, the team pulled themselves together and managed to get two wins, which allowed the team to move up to sixth place in the group. If the victory over SG came as no surprise, the triumph over Elephant was a real surprise. After all, the Chinese team is one of the strongest in the tournament. Nevertheless, the Quincy Crew’s game is not impressive, and even this only victory over the formidable Chinese did not change the team’s attitude.

Team Aster could have performed well in this tournament and were clearly in contention for the top playoff spot before it started. However, the guys are not having any luck. First, the team played without their mid. Now there are reports that the whole team is sick and clearly not showing their best game. The group stage perfectly demonstrated it, where Team Aster performed very poorly. This is an excellent chance for their current opponents to pass on, but also, Quincy Crew looked so weak in the group stage that the upcoming match seems completely random.

Both teams were poor in the group stage and not performing to the best of their ability. Nevertheless, Quincy Crew looked a little better in recent matches, while the Chinese team has too many problems, and from the last four games, they could win only two maps against Thunder, who ultimately failed in the tournament. In my opinion, Quincy Crew have an excellent chance of making it to the next round. The bookmakers are offering odds of 2.18 on a Quincy Crew win, which looks like a good option.
