Time for Bacon Time?
Last season, Bacon Time were the undisputed best Thai team in the world of competitive Arena of Valor. Despite this, the team fell short and finished 5-6th at the AIC 2023.
Now, this season, they’ve remained consistent but have only placed second in both splits of the RoV Pro League. Seeding into the Swiss Stage, Bacon Time cruised to the Playoffs with wins over ANK Gaming and Hydra Esports.
Their biggest challenge was their third match against FULL SENSE which went the distance in an epic 3-2 scoreline which favoured Bacon Time. Favoured against Saigon Phantom in the opening round, Bacon Time will likely match up against the other esports betting favourite – eArena. Can they beat them?
eArena – Another Thai Titan
Indeed, the only team to take down Bacon Time at the RoV Pro League Winter was eArena. After a great season, this year was eArena’s first opportunity to compete in the Arena of Valor International Championship.
Moreover, after signing a new player in July, “Negan”, eArena has battled harder than anyone in the Swiss Stage. Specifically, they’ve had the hardest opponents to face – Talon Esports, FULL SENSE, ONE Team and Saigon Phantom, all teams that made it to the Knockout Stage.
Taking down everyone except FULL SENSE, eArena’s threat level is higher than ever especially as they look to rematch teams in the coming bracket, making them favourites.
Flash Wolves – AIC Playoffs Betting
Hailing from Taiwan, Flash Wolves have done very well to defy the odds and dominate during the Swiss Stage. Finishing 3-0, Flash Wolves beat out ONE Team, Saigon Phantom and One Star Esports on their path to victory.
Recently finishing 3rd at the Arena of Valor Premier League and winning the Garena Challenger Series Summer, this team has what it takes to beat the best.
Bearing this in mind, we have eyes on Flash Wolves as contenders to win the entire tournament.
