Talon Esports had a fantastic run through the 2022 Dota Pro Circuit (DPC), finishing DPC SEA Tour 3 Division I in second place, despite spending the first two tours in the lower division. But Talon failed to achieve much internationally, placing 13th-14th at PGL Arlington Major<\/a> 2022, ninth-10th at ESL One Malaysia, and 17th-18th at The International<\/a> 2022.<\/p>\n

Talon have since signed Anucha “Jabz” Jirawong, Chan “Oli” Chon Kien and head coach Lee “SunBhie” Jeong-jae, who has been coaching some of the best Dota 2<\/a> teams in the world over the last half a decade. <\/p>\n

Execration did incredibly well in the lower division last season, and with just one roster change (-Ralph “RR” Pe\u00f1ano, + Juan “BDz” Manalo), they should enjoy a solid start to the new season. But beating Talon might be too much to ask. <\/p>\n

Still, Execration had a solid showing against Talon last season and combining that with early-season rust makes Execration an appealing pick on the map handicap market.<\/p>\n

FNATIC vs GEEK FAM Dota 2 BETTING & MATCH DETAIL<\/h2>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n

Best Odds:<\/td>\nFnatic -151.52 at BetOnline<\/a> | Geek Fam +110 at BetOnline<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
When:<\/td>\nJanuary 9, 2023 | 16:00 SGT<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Fnatic are one of the few teams entering the 2023 season without a coach following the departure of Lee “SunBhie” Jeong-jae to Talon Esports. Moreover, Fnatic also parted ways with Marc “Raven” Fausto and Anucha “Jabz” Jirawong, replacing them with Kim “Gabbi” Santos and Damien “kpii” Chok. Those are good additions, but they don’t make Fnatic any stronger than they were last season.<\/p>\n

Geek Fam put together a very interesting squad, but interesting doesn’t necessarily mean good. Like Fnatic, Geek Fam don’t have a coach yet, and the team consists mostly of tier-two players. While Geek Fam have the potential to impress, we’re not too excited about them.<\/p>\n

Fnatic look slightly weaker than in 2022, however, they’re going against a weaker roster with questionable synergy. It could be a close game, but $1.66 (with esports betting sites<\/a>) on Fnatic is a fair price.<\/p>\n
