?Paris Eternal are one of the most improved teams in the league, and while they aren’t particularly good, they can have their moments. Just two weeks back, they took Washington Justice to five maps and could have won had they not subbed in Samir “Tsuna” Ikram, which broke the synergy.
On Friday, the Eternal will cross swords with Dallas Fuel, who are arguably the second-best team in the league, behind Shanghai Dragons. They field one of the strongest rosters and have consistently done well against other western teams, although we weren’t too impressed with their performances against Florida Mayhem (3-2) and Toronto Defiant (3-1) at the start of the month.
We don’t expect Paris to win; however, with the improvement they have been showing, we have to take a shot with the outsiders to force another tight series and prove that they’re more than just a mid-table team.

?Sung-won “Assassin” Kim and Gui-un “Decay” Jang have been very impressive of late for Washington Justice, but you could make a case for Houston Outlaws to cause an upset Friday. The main reason why we like the Outlaws’ chances is their main tank, Myung-heum “JJANGGU” Cho. The 20-year-old is a force to be reckoned with on Wrecking Ball and Reinhardt and has shown strong synergy with Dante “Danteh” Cruz.
Even though the Justice seem more comfortable in the current meta, we wouldn’t side with them at the offered OWL betting odds. They impressed during the last stage and can easily be regarded as one of the top teams in the league when they’re playing at their peak, but they’re still very inconsistent and therefore hard to back with any confidence.
