DRX and FUT Esports will meet in the final round of the group stage of the VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: Masters Tokyo. In this case, the winner will go to the play-offs, just as the loser will go home.
I don't think the Turkish squad is capable of much success, especially since it's hard to pick out FUT Esports from their first two matches. On the other hand, DRX also managed to make a mark with a minus sign, losing to Evil Geniuses.
Still, the Turkish team narrowly defeated the weak Chinese, and that's the end of it. Moreover, the ideas of FUT Esports clearly do not fit into the structured LAN tournament game. So here I would lean on the DRX team to win.
DRX uniforms
The first team in the South Korean rankings made it to the semi-finals of the VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: LOCK//IN São Paulo, only rounding out its stability with a loss to LOUD.
DRX, on the other hand, looked good at the VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: Pacific League, but failed to make it to the play-offs and twice lost to Paper Rex.
As for their performance in the group stage of VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: Masters Tokyo, here the South Korean squad beat Attacking Soul Esports, but failed to cope with Evil Geniuses afterwards.
Latest DRX results:
- A 0-2 loss to Paper Rex.
- 3-2 win over T1.
- A 2-3 loss to Paper Rex.
- 2-0 win over Attacking Soul Esports.

Top DRX scores:
- Split - 100% wins.

- Haven - 63% wins.
- Fracture - 56% wins.
- Ascent - 50% wins.
It should not be forgotten that the South Korean team usually bans the Lotus card.
FUT Esports form
The eighth team in the European rankings has played ambiguously in the VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: EMEA League, where the success was the very exit to the play-offs stage.
However, the Turkish team did the impossible there, as they defeated Giants Gaming, Team Vitality and Natus Vincere, and subsequently made it to their second LAN tournament.
Already here at the VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: Masters Tokyo, FUT Esports lost to Evil Geniuses, and the day before had a very tough win over Attacking Soul Esports, which does not offer any guarantees.
Latest FUT Esports results:
- A 2-1 win over Team Vitality.
- A 2-0 win over Natus Vincere.
- A 0-3 loss to Team Liquid.
- Defeat by Evil Geniuses 0-2.
- Beat Attacking Soul Esports 2-1.
Best FUT Esports scores:
- Bind - 100% wins.
- Fracture - 100% wins.
- Pearl - 75% wins.
- Ascent - 67% wins.

In turn, the Turkish team usually gives up Fracture.

Prediction for the match DRX - FUT Esports
In general, so far the championship is emerging as the South Korean team has had problems. About FUT Esports in principle, there is nothing to say, because the Turks on their own wave.
And yet here it is more logical to trust the experience of DRX, and in fact the team can take out the structure. I do not know what mood the Turkish team will be in, but such a style is unlikely to fit into the play-offs.
Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on a DRX team win.
