Talon vs BetBoom Team/Keyd Stars Preview and Predictions: The International 2023 – LB Round 2

Talon vs BetBoom is definitely going to be a creative Dota 2 game at its best as two talented squads battle it out to move further into The International 2023.

Talon Esports suffered a terrible 2-0 loss against Team Liquid in the upper brackets, but they are not out of The International 2023 yet as they face off against BetBoom in an epic battle of survival.

Talon

Despite having one of the strongest lineups at The International 2023, Talon Esports encountered some difficulties throughout the group rounds. Though the last game against Team Liquid was a shipwreck, Talon Esports has one last shot to move forward and keep their TI12 dreams alive against BetBoom.

BetBoom Team

BetBoom’s TI12 run has been impressive in the group stages, but they somehow failed to win when it mattered. 9Pandas secured a win over BetBoom in phase two, and as a result, BetBoom is in the lower brackets. However, the win against Keyd Stars has kickedstarted their TI12 run again, and they look very confident going into their next match against Talon Esports.
