Hangzhou Spark entered OWL 2023 Summer Stage Qualifiers as the best team from the East, but Seoul Infernal quickly took that tag from them. The Infernal crushed Hangzhou (2-0, 1-0, 3-0) in their opening match, adding a commanding 3-1 win over Poker Face on Sunday.
It looks like Seoul Infernal are on the bounce-back following a disappointing showing at the OWL Midseason Madness (5th-6th), but they still have a long way to go before we see a repeat run from the Spring Stage.
Guangzhou Charge are still on a bit of a downward trend. They started the qualifiers with a 3-1 victory against 02 Blast but then lost to Hangzhou Spark (0-3), where the Charge showed that they hadn’t improved during the break and still can’t play Sombra.
As the latest Overwatch betting odd suggests, Seoul Infernal are much stronger than the Charge, who have not shown enough for us to believe they can compete against the top teams. This could easily be a 3-0, but we’re happy with the price on the handicap market.

Dreamers started off the Overwatch League Summer Stage with wins against Shanghai Dragons (3-1) and PANTHERA (3-1). Their success early into the qualifiers is even more impressive if we consider that Dreamers recently lost Park “D0nghun” Dong-hun and Lee “Ezhan” Ji-han, but it also shows that this is a well-coached team and more than the sum of its parts.
The newest signings Jeong “TOPDRAGON” Seung-yong and Seo “ssaadd” Kang-min looked great and played a significant role in Dreamers’ dominant victory over the Shanghai Dragons. With how good the DPS duo are performing, Dreamer seems to have never lost any firepower with the recent departures.
Poker Face weren’t nearly as successful in the first week of action, with two defeats against Dallas Fuel (1-3) and Seoul Infernal (1-3). Poker Face had moments over the two series, but they were not good enough to compete against established rosters.
The price gap in this match isn’t as big as it should be, mainly because these are still two Contenders teams. However, Dreamers have shown a lot more and shouldn’t struggle to get the win on Friday.
