We’ve yet to see Seoul Dynasty and Seoul Infernal play this season, so it’s tough to make firm conclusions on which of the two teams should win. But individual talent-wise, there isn’t much to separate them.<\/p>\n

Seoul Infernal (formerly Philadelphia Fusion) enter the 2023 season with two new players in tank Kim “Mag” Tae-sung (ex-Boston Rising) and Kim “skewed” Min-seok (ex-LA Gladiators), who are solid players. In addition, the Infernal also re-signed support Kwon “FiXa” Yeong-hun, which is a strange move knowing how mediocre FiXa was during his last stint with the team.<\/p>\n

On the other side, Seoul Dynasty put together a very young squad of former 02 Blast players and mixed in some veteran blood in Kang “Void” Jun-woo to form a very exciting roster with the potential to grow. This comes with some unpredictability \u2013 especially early into the season \u2013 but the potential is there.<\/p>\n

Seoul Dynasty are a bit of an enigma, but it’s unlikely that they’re that much worse than Infernal, who are a mid-table team at best. At the offered Overwatch betting odds<\/a>, we like the Dynasty better.<\/p>\n

HANGZHOU SPARK vs SHANGHAI DRAGONS OWL BETTING & MATCH DETAILS<\/h2>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n

Best Odds:<\/td>\nSpark -1000 at BetOnline<\/a> | Dragons +650 at BetOnline<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
When:<\/td>\nApril 29, 2023 | 20:00 KST<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Shanghai Dragons went from placing third in the 2020 OWL playoffs and winning the league a year later to finishing ninth-12th in the 2022 OWL Playoffs. And looking at the roster they’ve put together, things likely won’t look any better this term.<\/p>\n

Shanghai Dragons have lost much of their top talent and now look more like a bottom team than serious title contenders. But when we rank teams, it’s more about how much they can achieve throughout the whole season and not so much how they’ll do in the first week.<\/p>\n

Still, even if we weigh in the unpredictability of early-season matches, it’s tough to bet against Hangzhou Spark, who are legitimate title contenders with significantly better players than most other OWL East teams.<\/p>\n

The Spark already placed fourth in the 2022 OWL playoffs, and with the signing of Luo “Twenty” Wenjie, Huang “leave” Xin, Chen “Lengsa” Jingyi, and Zhou “Mmonk” Xiang, it can only go up from here.<\/p>\n
