The Falcons are having a bit of a rough time in the second group stage of DreamLeague Season 24. So far, the team has three wins and two losses. They're currently in fourth place in the standings, just one win away from the relegation zone. If they make a mistake in the next two matches, it could have a big impact on their chances. But we know that Team Falcons always makes the playoffs and ends up in the top three.

There are a few things that have come up in the last few losses. Firstly, the opposition applied pressure to the mid and effectively neutralised Malr1ne. In four of the last ten maps, Stas either lost the midlane or was on equal footing, but couldn't find his way into the game. Secondly, Team Falcons started to peak frequently for ATF Bristleback. BetBoom Team adapted their strategy to counter the Falcons' playstyle and ultimately outplayed them in the long game. However, Team Falcons has been performing well overall. After The International 2024, the team expanded its character pool and changed its playstyle. Nowadays, they don't tend to finish maps in the early minutes, play in a greedier style and try to farm all three cows.

Team Falcons were the dominant force in the professional scene throughout 2024. Malr1ne's team has reached the finals on eight occasions out of eleven, with six tournament victories to show for it. There have been a few hiccups in the group stages before, but Team Falcons have always made the playoffs. As we said in our last predictions, the Falcons haven't lost two series in a row, so after the BetBoom Team misfire, they need to win confidently against Team Waska.

The Peruvians made it to the top 8 of DreamLeague Season 24, but in the second group stage they're still battling it out for the 5-8 spots. Team Waska has one win and four losses after five rounds. Unfortunately, the Peruvian miracle didn't make it through. The team has one last chance to qualify for the DreamLeague Season 24 playoffs, but they'll need to beat Team Falcons to do so.

From watching the whole tournament, it seems there are a few patterns emerging. Team Waska tends to do well against weaker teams, but struggles against the top players. In the first group stage, Payk and DarkMago were at the top of the DreamLeague Season 24 individual rankings, but now they're back to the tournament average. In the second group stage, the Peruvians lost their aggression, had fewer good drafts, and some maps lacked ideas. In the series against BetBoom Team and PARIVISION, the Peruvians gave up four maps in a row without a fight, as well as in the last match against Team Liquid on the third map.

Team Waska has already played against Team Falcons at the tournament, and they drew 2-2 in the series. That match didn't have any bearing on the Falcons' position, and the Peruvians had already made it into the top 8 by that point. The match will be a whole new ballgame, and the opponents won't let up. Team Waska has shown in recent matches that they're not quite ready for the tier-1 level.

Team Falcons will bounce back from their loss to BetBoom Team and strengthen their position in the standings. The Falcons are far superior to Team Waska players in terms of individual performance. Based on the Peruvians' recent performances, they're unlikely to win a single map in this series.
