ZETA DIVISION vs T1 Preview and Predictions – VCT 2023 Pacific League

The ZETA DIVISION vs T1 match will be crucial for these teams to win to avoid the chances of losing their Playoffs spot

Even though these two teams are enjoying the top 6 spots of the VCT Pacific Standings, they haven’t confirmed going to the Playoffs yet. Therefore, winning the last couple of matches will be crucial, especially for ZETA DIVISION, who currently have a 4-3 record. You should also focus on the round differences after this match since those will play an important role as tiebreakers. 

ZETA DIVISION

With a 4-3 record so far in this event, ZETA DIVISION are still in fear of not making it to the Playoffs. Fortunately, we have seen the gamers at ZETA performing consistently throughout this event, especially players like Laz, SugarZ3ro and Dep, who have been the keys to victory for the Japanese. Assuming they will continue making great impacts, T1 will have a tough time winning this Bo3.

T1

This South Korean roster is currently the 3rd best team of VCT Pacific with a 5-2 record. Thanks to their recent three victories in succession, T1 are looking incredible and ready to cement their spot in the Playoffs. However, there’s a world where T1 fails to qualify if they have a 5-4 record after the Regular Season, meaning they must win these last two games just like ZETA DIVISION. Nonetheless, with xeta and Sayaplayer being two of the top 10 Pacific players right now, we see T1 winning this Best of 3.
