In this betting thread you can read about how these teams have performed this year, what their successes were in the previous professional tournament, and who the favourites for the clash are.
TSM uniforms
TSM have spent most of this season extremely confident at the regional level. This is evidenced by 7-0 wins at DPC NA 2023 Tour 1: Division I and DPC NA 2023 Tour 2: Division I. On the international level, however, the results of the American squad are noticeably more modest. TSM finished 13-14th at the Lima Major 2023 and 17th-18th at the ESL One Berlin Major 2023. Whitemon and the team finished in eighth place at the last tournament in the series, DreamLeague Season 19, after making the first group stage and earning $37,500 in prize money.
Also, like all competitors in this tournament, the previous championship for TSM was the first DPC division of the season in their region, namely DPC NA 2023 Tour 3: Division I. There, the American squad produced a weaker performance than in the previous two DPC rounds. The 5-2 stats were not enough to place them in the top 2 of the championship, so TSM finished third in the standings. This earned them $27,000 and 200 DPC points, but the team members will not travel to Bali, at least not as players.
Recent TSM results statistics:
- 2-0 win over Sand King Gomez
- 1-2 loss to nouns
- 2-0 defeat
- Defeat Team DogChamp 2:1
- Defeat ALPHA 2:0
Team Secret uniform
The International 2022 silver medallists have not been very active or stable so far this year. Puppey and his teammates have only taken part in the championships in the ranked DPC season. But here the legendary squad is riding a "rollercoaster". First Team Secret took eighth place in DPC WEU 2023 Tour 1: Division I, before winning DPC WEU 2023 Tour 2: Division II, returning to Division I.
The last event for Team Secret was DPC WEU 2023 Tour 3: Division I. There, the European team put in a simply terrible performance, considering the past merits. Team Secret finished in last eighth place with a 1-6 statistic, beating only D1 Hustlers. This result sends Puppey and his teammates back to Division Two, and the consolation prize for the players was $22,000.
Team Secret's latest results statistics:
- 1-2 defeat to Tundra Esports
- 1-2 loss to Quest Esports
- 0-2 defeat at the hands of Entity
- Beat D1 Hustlers 2-0
- 1-2 defeat at the hands of OG
TSM - Team Secret match history
The last time the teams played each other was back at The International 2022. Then Team Secret won the group stage with a score of 2-0, but that was in the autumn of last year, so this result is not relevant.
