On June 2, Vici Gaming and Team Secret will play another Wild Card AniMajor 2021 matchup. The Chinese teams look very powerful in 2021, and Vici Gaming is no exception. Will the not 100% motivated Team Secret be able to fight for victory in this match?
Vici Gaming: must finally win
Vici Gaming could not make it to the group stage of the majors, despite the fact that the team won five games out of seven in the first division of China, this only ensured them a replay in which they lost to PSG.LGD with a score of 1-2. The only card Vici Gaming was able to win with a Broodmother pick. Knowing Puppey, who is already definitely thinking about The International he may not intentionally ban this hero against the Chinese to assess their strength with him. And Vici Gaming is pretty good with this hero. Overall, Vici Gaming looked good as the season went on, they only made it to the Wild Card again, but should overcome it again and go to the group stage.
Team Secret: will they want to play?
Team Secret didn't want to play in Europe all season, it got to the point where the guys had a theoretical chance to leave the first European division, but then Team Secret realized that they might be overextended and played their last two games at a higher level. Nevertheless, Secret doesn't look like the kind of machine that would easily pass the Wild Card, and what's more, I don't think they'll take the top 2. The team has looked bad all season long, it's likely the guys will build their training process in such a way as to reach peak form for The International and they don't really care about this major. They came here just to keep up with the competition, to see with their own eyes what their opponents are up to.
Forecast for Vici Gaming vs Team Secret
The Chinese teams look good and this region is probably the strongest at the moment, Vici Gaming needs points, Team Secret doesn't really care about their result in this tournament. I think Vici Gaming has a great chance to finally beat the Europeans.
Bookmakers offer odds of 3.75 on the victory of Vici Gaming, which looks like a good option.
