SIBE Team is a new Russian team playing at the tier 2-3 level. Over the past couple of months, the young squad has shown good results, finishing 2023 on the fifth line in the ESL ranking of the best teams in Eastern Europe, having played a significant number of official matches for the sake of it. This success is encouraging for aspiring players on the professional scene, but the chances of reaching some sort of tier-1 event are still slim.
Team SIBE has rarely faced teams at the Tier-1 level and has been expected to lose to them. Still, this team is not without local successes, such as beating TI12 participant Keyd Stars, finishing top at European Pro League Season 15, and qualifying for the BetBoom Dacha. The players on this team do not have excessively high MMRs, averaging in the top 100 to the top 300 range.
The SIBE Team is not considered a favorite for qualifying for BetBoom Dacha. It will be a successful result for them to win one or two series while gaining valuable experience playing against more experienced teams. The opening game against the new team, RAMZES666, ended in defeat, but the SIBE Team can still compete in this mini-tournament.
One Move
The renewed One Move squad became known to the public in the first days of January, and only one player from the previous squad remained on the team. It was decided to build a new team around pantomem, which is full of new names and this lineup already raises many questions.
The fourth position's backup, queezy, is the only one who previously shined professionally playing for Sigma.YNT. All carry players have no experience, especially in such teams as One Move. This squad failed in the first open qualification, losing to the Kazakhstani side Cyber Goliaths. Still, in the second qualification, One Move overcame the resistance of Envoys and Night Pulse. The game with Lil (Team Klee) was the first serious test for the renewed One Move team, and the team passed it, defeating the champions of the last season of the EPL and getting a coveted slot in the closed qualification at BetBoom Dacha.
In the first match of the closed qualification, One Move lost to their opponents from Chimera. The nominal outsiders struggled for almost 40 minutes, but One Move's draft picks are a bit of a past meta. It will be hard to play against stronger squads.
Expert Betting Tips
Bookmakers highlight One Move as their favorite team, but this roaster has no more skillful players than the SIBE Team and has only played together for a week. The match is expected to be equal, and it has no favorite.
