The VCT 2023 Game Changers Championship kicks off with a clash between reigning Game Changers champions G2 Gozen and home crowd favourites Team Liquid Brazil. These teams last met in November 2022, when G2 won 2-0, but a lot has changed since, which explains the offered Valorant betting odds.
G2 enter the VCT 2023 Game Changers Championship on a four-game losing streak, including three defeats at the Red Bull Home Ground #4 EMEA Qualifier. Their struggles began shortly after Maryam “Mary” Maher’s retirement, and while Sarah “sarah” Ahmed has proven to be a solid player, G2 Gozen are not the same.
Team Liquid BR showed good form in October when they won VCT 2023 Game Changers Brazil Series 2, but they haven’t played an official game since. So, while form is something to consider, neither team has an official match on record in over a month.
Team Liquid BR look like the most likely victors, but G2 Gozen have the tools to do well. Considering both teams enter this match rusty, we can expect a scrappy affair.

EVIL GENIUSES GC v TEAM SMG VCT BETTING & MATCH DETAILS |

|---|---|
| Best Odds: | EG -111.11 at BetOnline | SMG -119.05 at BetOnline |

Evil Geniuses GC enter the VCT 2023 Game Changers Championship priced at +900 in the outright betting markets, whereas Team SMG are +3000 outsiders to claim the trophy. However, for this match Valorant esports betting sites have priced the teams at close to the same odds.
This largely has to do with the fact that, like many other teams, EG and SMG are ring rusty, as they hadn’t played an official game in close to two months. Evil Geniuses GC also made a roster change last week and signed Scaryshark32, an unproven talent at VCT level.
EG look better on paper, mainly because they hail from a stronger region. However, Team SMG are 33-0 this season and are by far the best APAC VCT Game Changers team. At the offered VCT betting odds, SMG are an excellent bet.
