Neon Esports vs Army Geniuses Prediction: Army Geniuses will claim victory

November 21, Neon Esports and Army Geniuses will play their first match in the BTS Pro Series Season 13: Southeast Asia. Which of the teams will be stronger, we will find out very soon. The game is scheduled to start at 12:00.

A year ago, Neon Esports participated in the Singapore major and was in the top 6, but now the team is in deep crisis. They went from Southeast Asia's elite in the 2022 season to relegation from the second division without a single series win. The only bright spot in the game was in September, when Neon Esports played TI11 qualifiers and stopped in 5th-6th place.

The team's last tournament was Moon Studio November Mood 2022, where they could only win four out of 19 maps. Neon Esports players had the worst map gold (2,038 GPM), experience (2,562 OPM), committed the fewest kills (24 per game) and has a team KDA of 2.37.

The team does not have a unified concept in draft construction, so they play whatever they can get their hands on. Average match timer is 38 minutes. Usually on one of the maps in the last series Neon Esports has a swing: can make a comeback from an impossible situation and immediately lose the advantage, or vice versa lead the economy and give up everything in an important phase. The result is the same: the team almost always loses the series in a blowout.

Army Geniuses is slowly but surely growing as a team in the region. In July, inYourdreaM, who was recently a top-1 player in Southeast Asia, joined the team, and analysts predicted him to have the same future as Abed. However, Muhammad is now 24, and in his career he can only boast a win four years ago against Natus Vincere. Army Geniuses was one step away from reaching the first division of the DPC and made the lower bracket two rounds of the TI11 qualifiers, and is currently playing in the Asian BTS Pro Series leagues with occasional success, but is making the playoffs steadily.

Their whole game is built around carry db. He is ranked 59th in Southeast Asia and prefers to use hard carry, while InYourdreaM more often takes active heroes to create space for his teammate. Drafts are focused on 5x5 fights. At the Moon Studio November Mood 2022 tournament, Army Geniuses' Meader ranked among the top 5 players in kills (10.5 per map). and Offleiner Tres was one of the best assists (19 per map).

The former star's transition could be the catalyst for Army Geniuses to move on to the next stage of development. It is quite possible that the team will be able to make it into the top 4 of the tournament at BTS Pro Series Season 13: Southeast Asia.

Neon Esports has been steadily losing their recent matches. They have a mess of drafts, erratic action on the map and problems getting resources on the map. At the same time, Army Geniuses are gradually playing better and attracting good players to the roster. Undoubtedly, Army Geniuses will win the upcoming encounter as favorites.
