1win also went to their first LAN, like Yellow Submarine, but the situation is very different here. Ahilles' team has been training a lot with the tier-1 squad recently and qualified for The International 2024, where they'll compete for the main title this year. The former Virtus.pro coach was able to recruit capable players without uniforms and unite them into a single team, and now he is reaping the benefits. The team periodically plays at top events and is progressing. At Elite League Season 2, 1win has a slight chance of competing for the championship.
The Eastern European team had no problems in their first match against beastcoast. 1win's strategy is to focus on team fights and Leit rather than trying to play fast Dota 2. But the Ahilles team has historically been able to divide the map and distribute their farming wisely, so even in challenging games they manage not to drop in net worth. The series with Team Liquid didn't go 1win's way, but they could have closed it out with a win. On all three maps, 1win had the upper hand in gold and experience, making it clear from the outset that the match wouldn't be a cakewalk for Liquid.
Of all the teams with a 1-1 win-loss balance, 1win is the strongest. If Ahilles wants to avoid problems in the Swiss, they should pass Execration without any problems and tune in for the next game day.
Execration
We first see Execration at a major tournament in 2024. The organization showed up at the majors last year when there were DPC cycles but couldn't make it through the closed qualifications. It's already faced two of the best teams from South America, in Peru. It beat BOOM Esports 2-1 but lost uncontested to Heroic 0-2.
In 2023, Execration made their way to the Riyadh Masters 2023, showcasing the team's strongest performance. That leaves the organization with offlane Tino and Shanks in the fourth position. The team has a good grasp on the current meta, but the drafts are all over the place and don't have much synergy between characters. Sometimes, the strategies need more stacks and opportunities for pick-offs; sometimes, they simply need better teamwork. The drafts against Heroic didn't go well at all. On an individual level, we can single out Execration's carry, Abat. He produced relatively good stats on lost maps and kept his team afloat.
Execration was chosen for Elite League Season 2 because there weren't any Southeast Asian teams. It's a valuable learning experience for the players, but expecting major, splashy victories from Execration is unrealistic. Regarding the team's overall performance, Execration is not as strong as 1win.
Expert Betting Tips
The big question is how many games 1win will win against its current opponent. When you look at Beastcoast and Team Liquid, the Southeast Asian team doesn't seem as strong. It will probably be a 2-0 win for 1win, and the match will end there.
