Suning Gaming vs Machi E-Sports

This is where things get a lot more complicated. Suning vs. Machi Esports is by no means a perennial clash of two fan-favorite teams, but it's still insanely nuanced and is guaranteed to deliver. If you're into top-tier play with a pinch of mind-blowing aggression, then this game is a must-watch.

It's also quite an important clash that'll give us a bit information into Suning's overall strength and long-term potential. We've seen them trade blows with G2 Esports and have looked downright incredible against Team Liquid, but that's still not a particularly impressive sample size. Machi, however, is a volatile challenge, one that's far more dangerous than anyone expected. Sure, they're a bit sloppy when it comes to execution, they're not as well-rounded as some of their peers, but for a team no one thought much coming into Worlds, they've been doing admirably well.

Still, Suning has been playing out of their minds lately, and are more than worthy of your undivided attention. They're obviously favored to get out of groups, but everyone's still dying to find out how high they'll eventually soar. They're young and pretty inexperienced, but you'd never be able to tell just from watching them play. That, given the level of opposition they're facing, is quite a compliment.

In any case, we're siding with Suning on this one as it's the only logical choice, but it's not going to be clean or easy. Machi know what's on the line and are going to fight their hearts out to get the upset, so expect fireworks!
