In the lower bracket of the playoffs, Team D will play against Execration. A very interesting match awaits us, I am sharing my forecast for this match within the first round of PNXBET Invitationals SEA Season 2.
Team D finished group "A" in third place, with 1 win, 2 draws and 1 loss. Execration grabbed a slot in the playoffs thanks to a victory over Ground Zero, clear outsiders, but before that they were surprised by a draw with Cignal Ultra and lost to favorites: Team SMG and Army Geniuses.

Prediction: Team D vs. Execration in the first round of the PNXBET Invitationals SEA Season 2 Lower Bracket
For the sake of objectivity, it is worth remembering the result of these both teams at the BIX Invitationals Summer 2021, the teams then parted with a world draw 1: 1. The game took place on July 17, Execration managed to win with Juggernaut, Viper, Puck on the cores, and Team D won through Faceless Void, Viper, Sand King.
Team D is a mix, they don't have a lot of strategies and therefore they have very mediocre results in the last championships. By the way, at the BIX Invitationals Summer 2021 they could not make it to the playoffs, they constantly have some kind of replacement in the roster, and I am very sorry for vtFaded, he is wasting time with this roster.
Execration are more accustomed to such a schedule, they have been playing together for a long time, they went through failures in the Major, although they did not qualify for The International 10, they try to show a stable game.
Execration has Arc Warden in its arsenal, they like to play with Abaddon and Hoodwink, they also often take Leshrac, Luna, Templar Assassin.
Team D rate: Templar Assassin, they love the Phoenix + Mars bundle, they often take Kunkka, Hoodwink, from the interesting there are Lifestealer, Beastmaster, Ax and Riki.
Quite strange quotes, Team D's victory was estimated at 4.14, and the success of Execration at 1.212. This is despite the fact that the teams played with each other literally 4 days ago and the match ended in a draw. Bookmakers take into account the results of teams not only at PNXBET Invitationals, but also at BIX Invitationals Summer 2021. In my understanding, too, Execration is objectively stronger, but betting on 1.212 is like that. Team D may well squeeze a map and even a streak, 4.14 is clearly not justified on them, they have good and cool drafts.
A good coefficient for TB is 2.5 - 2.35, I want to believe in it, but I am inclined purely due to quotes of 2: 1 for Execration with a coefficient of 3.2.
Prediction: TB 2.5 for 2.35 in Team D vs. Execration; with a minimum risk of 2: 1 per Execration - coefficient 3.2
