This is a best-of-three series between two elite rosters — Tundra Esports and Team Liquid. Both teams are high-tier competitors with deep draft pools, sharp mid-game execution, and plenty of international experience. The market sees this as one of the more balanced top-tier clashes in the event, with a slight lean toward Tundra as favourites — but Liquid are very much live as well.
📊 Odds & Market Expectation
Recent bookmaker pricing generally has:
That implies roughly:
So Tundra are favoured, but this is far from a runaway price. Liquid are priced as legitimate challengers — meaning the market expects maps from both sides and a good chance this goes to three games.
🧠 Team Breakdown – Tundra Esports
Tundra are known for:
World-class drafting and flexibility — they adapt their strategies not just map-to-map but mid-series.
Disciplined tempo control — they don’t give up objectives cheaply and convert even small leads well.
Objective prioritization — they pressure towers and Roshan on time, which leads to consistent economic leads.
In BO3s, Tundra often look like the team that can slow the pace down when needed and punish overaggression from their opponents. That kind of control is extremely valuable when matches are closely priced.
🧠 Team Breakdown – Team Liquid
Team Liquid bring:
Strong teamfight execution — they coordinate their ultimates and positioning very well.
Consistent mid-game scaling — they hit key item timings reliably and punish overextensions.
Adaptation between maps — they are very good at correcting mistakes from Game 1 and winning Game 2 or 3.
Liquid are not a “tempo roll” team — they tend to win when their draft scales into late game control, which makes them especially dangerous if they fall behind early.
📈 Likely Outcomes
Because this is such a high-level matchup with a modest odds gap, here’s how the outcomes might realistically distribute:
🎯 Tundra 2–1: Most likely overall. Both teams take a map, but Tundra close it with better draft adaptation or mid-game control.
📊 Tundra 2–0: Very possible if Tundra get early objective leads and maintain pace control.
🔥 Liquid 2–1: Live upset scenario. Liquid can steal a map if they win early teamfights and force Tundra into uncomfortable drafts.
❗ Liquid 2–0: Less likely but feasible if Liquid outdrafts Tundra and dominates early pressure.
Because the implied edge is modest, three maps feel especially realistic.
