BOOM Esports Prediction - ZETA DIVISION
We return to the group stage of Valorant Champions 2022, today in group A, there will be a relegation match. Representatives of the Asia-Pacific region BOOM Esports will face the Japanese from ZETA DIVISION for the right to continue their performance in the tournament. Previously, the teams did not hold face-to-face meetings, and today they will have to determine the strongest in the bo3 format.
Form ZETA DIVISION
The first match of the tournament, the team played against the Brazilian giants from LOUD, and the result was quite obvious. Acting as outsiders, the ZETA DIVISION players fought well, but the victory turned out to be inaccessible. Ascent (8-13), Fracture (9-13), the team lost to Ascent, one of their strongest maps, which means that they are still far from the top teams in terms of skill. Today, relatively weak opponents await them, so it is possible that the performance at the World Championships will not end so quickly.

BOOM Esports Uniform
Like future opponents, the team played its first game at the tournament against the tops, only from North America - OpTic Gaming. The result of the match turned out to be not so predictable, I assumed a clear victory for OpTic, but the Indonesian team managed to surprise all the spectators by taking the first map on Breeze's heavy extra rounds (18-16). Unfortunately for the BOOM players, the next two cards went through with ease for the opponents: Bind (5-13), Fracture (3-13). Despite the loss, the representatives of Indonesia showed themselves well in the fight against the tier-1 team of the world, and here one can argue for a long time whether they won only due to the choice of the map, or outplayed them on their personal skill, but the fact remains.

Match prediction
A knockout match is always an interesting sight, especially when it comes to such a major tournament as Valorant Champions 2022. On the one hand, BOOM, who played mainly in tier-2 tournaments during their career, did not show any special results when they reached the first stage. On the other hand, ZETA, who also started from the tier-2 scene, but for the last two years, have shown themselves well at the level of top Japanese teams. I assume the victory of the second, especially since their main player TENNN returned to the roster after a short pause.
Result: victory of ZETA DIVISION
