As we head into the second week of competitive league play, the stakes are already high.
There is little to no time for teams to adjust to their new rosters or opponents.
We looked ahead to which matches promise to deliver hype or critical results.

This week will be a make-or-break week forTeam Secret.
Their 0-3 series (0:6 game) record is disappointing to say the least.
And things aren’t faring well for them at all.
They will go head-to-head withEntityand then face off against The International 2022 championship team,Tundra, this week.
The team is sitting in first place with a perfect 2:0 series (4:0 game) record.
They are definitely on the trajectory for a spot in the first Major of the new season.
These two teams will go lock horns early in the week for a game that should be very hype.

These two teams will face off later this week.

The matches taking place in North America seem to be highly polarizing.
Teams are either stacked as undefeated or lacking any series win.
