TNC Predator and Geek Fam will face each other in the lower bracket final of the ONE Esports Dota 2 SEA League. The ONE Esports Dota 2 SEA League is a $100,000 online Dota 2 tournament featuring the best Southeast Asian Dota 2 teams in action. The tournament started with ten teams and is down to its last three contestants, TNC Predator, Geek Fam and Fnatic. The first-placed team receives $40,000 in prize money.

TNC Predator had a very close series against the tournament favorites, Fnatic in the upper bracket finals. The team came back from a 0-1 start against Fnatic in Game 2, with a Gyrocopter-IO pick. Fnatic did not have any reply to this combination as they were unable to outlast TNC Predator. However, Fnatic’s deep playbook allowed the team to outdraft TNC Predator in game 3.

Geek Fam has already faced TNC Predator once in the upper bracket. The team lost the series 0-2 against a resurgent TNC Predator. Geek Fam finished the group stage in the third place behind Fnatic and TNC Predator. The Philippines Dota 2 roster has put up some big performances and relies on team chemistry and a big advantage in the drafting phase against tougher opponents.

Pick: Over 2.5 Games (-104 @ Pinnacle)

I am taking this series to be relatively closer than the two teams’ previous encounter. The two teams will face each other and this time, I expect Geek Fam to put up more of a fight. I am taking TNC Predator and Geek Fam to go over 2.5 games.
