9 Pandas vs Team Falcons Prediction: We can expect Malr1ne's team to win

Prediction for the ESL One Kuala Lumpur 2023 9 Pandas vs Team Falcons match which will take place on December 12th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Pandas started the ESL One Kuala Lumpur 2023 with two failed series against Team Liquid and Tundra Esports. The four maps did not yield a single point. Why can't 9 Pandas find their game in the tournament?

We must admit that the Afoninje experiment only works within the CIS region. At the majors, Andrei consistently dies 11 times per map. Why did 9Pandas do so well at tournaments in 2023? Because Antares was the second strongest player on the team, he made effective rotations, set the pace for his heroes, could play himself, and bought the necessary items. Afoninje does these things more slowly and less efficiently. Because of this, Kiyotaka can't play around the map and get kills. The second reason for the failures is RAMZES666's play style. MieRo could also play grabby, but more often, his heroes could get into fights on early timers.

On the other hand, Roman plays a second seven-carry and takes a lot of farming off the map, not compensating for the activity. What is 9Pandas doing with this lineup? There's only one playmaker on the team now, which makes draft picks for leadership a priority, and solo teams don't feel comfortable in this environment. At the tier-1 level, teams start rotating on the map after 6-8 minutes, and with RAMZES666 and V-Tune tied to the lines and Afoninje unable to fully help the team, the Pandas have to play the second number.

Team Falcons kicked off the first day of ESL One Kuala Lumpur 2023. The team finished two series against Team Liquid and LGD.Gaming. Malr1ne's team has four points in the asset and an excellent chance to enter the playoffs in the top bracket. What is the secret of Team Falcons' success?

Winning the Pinnacle: 25 Year Anniversary Show and practicing against tier-2 opponents has allowed the team to get hyped up for the tournament in Malaysia. Everything is going like clockwork, with ATF and Malr1ne playing as playmakers all over the map, backed up by the ubiquitous Cr1t and Sneyking. With the four of them, it's easier for them to shut down their opponents on the map and make room for Skiter. Carry manages to get his characters to critical mass within 20 minutes, and by midgame, he is a severe threat to his opponents, and already five players are making methodical moves: take Roshan, open tier-3 towers, barracks, and end the game. The only surprising thing is that Sneyking developed a slow play style in Tundra, but now Team Falcons is playing faster than the rest of the tournament. On average, a map with them lasts less than 35 minutes.

9 Pandas look too confusing to be reincarnated in one day and get two points in this match. Team Falcons have shown that they are one of the favorites in the tournament. If the teams perform the same as they did on the first day, we can expect Malr1ne's team to win.
