In the last 25 matches, LDLC won 12 and lost 13 with a win ratio of 48% and the average rank of #93,24.

I am heavily leaning towards Avangar here since they have fantastic players for their tier league. They won last 12 consecutive matches, and they are on fire at the moment. This is the grand final match, and the winner will go home with $6,000 and second place is paid $3,000. It is not much, but it is worth the win for AVANGAR since it will boost their ladder rank. These two teams played three maps, and the score is 2-1 for Avangar. LDLC has newcomers in the team roster. AmaNEk and devoduvek from ex-Misfits. My bet here will be a strong Avangar victory.

Good luck to all who bet and don't forget to gamble responsibly!
