Shopify Rebellion vs TSM Prediction: North American Derby

Prediction for The International 2023 match which will take place on October 21st. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Shopify Rebellion

Shopify Rebellion, formerly known as Evil Geniuses, has been the leader in their region for years. Their experience and professionalism made them one of the strongest teams in the world, but this season, their performance has not been as impressive. Under the new flag, they have yet to show the level of the previous years. This could be the last tournament for many players on this team, which could be an incentive for them to perform at their best.

Shopify Rebellion ran into trouble in the group stage and almost ended their run early. Their results were poor, finishing fourth in the group. Draws with Thunder Awaken and Azure Ray showed the team's instability, while a 2-0 loss to Spirit proved they had some problems.

However, given the team's experience and potential, Shopify Rebellion can always improve their game for the playoffs. Judging by their history and skill, they can try to turn things around and advance to the lower bracket of the playoffs at The International 12.

TSM

TSM, the second strongest team in North America (although that hierarchy may change with the success of nouns), may have entered The International 12 with doubts about their ability to prove themselves at this major world tournament. Their last season wasn't that convincing, and they may have made it to the TI on the strength of their early success.

Their performance in the group stage showed some potential. By finishing second in the group and earning four points, they showed they could compete with top teams. Note their impressive performance in their last three games, where they went undefeated, including a 2-0 win over Talon.

However, the last match against Virtus.pro revealed that TSM has problems with preparation. A failed draft on the second map affected their result. The team should pay attention to their strategy to be more competitive in the playoffs of this tournament. Even though they started as underdogs, TSM could surprise if they can solve their problems and do their best.

Expert Betting Tips

Predicting the match between these teams is highly unpredictable and may depend on many factors. This match can also be a real kill-fest. As a result, it will be unclear who will win until the end, but TSM has chances to succeed and catch their moments in this encounter.
