An opinion from the WePlay! talent panel

Our caster Alexey "yXo" Maletsky is confident in the victory of AVANGAR:

“I see AVANGAR as the prime contestant in the WePlay! League. Can’t be sure about the shape HellRaisers are in, but AVANGAR are the clear favorites. As far as I know, the team has minor problems with the roster. Can’t say how playing with A stand-in will impact their performance, but in general I’m glad they are participating in the WePlay! League. I won’t be surprised if they go through to the final stage of LAN-finals and win the whole thing.

I'm really rooting for this strong and exciting team. The organization is truly self-made: it “farmed” the players and pulled itself to the top. I like these guys very much. I really want them to grow and improve.

Worth mentioning that AVANGAR are the “gatekeepers” at Major tournaments. They have been playing every high-tier team and will give any tier-1 squad a run for their money."
