Park “Dark” Ryung-woo is priced as a $1.14 favourite to defeat Park “DRG” Soo-ho on Tuesday, which makes sense, considering Dark is 20-3 up in the head-to-head since the two Korean StarCraft II esports pros first met in 2014. Moreover, Dark is 6-1 up in the head-to-head in 2023.
However, while Dark holds an awe-inspiring record against his compatriot, he lost against DRG (0-2) in September, proving he isn’t invincible. But considering it was his first defeat against DRG since 2020, it could have easily been a fluke.
It also doesn’t help that DRG enters the 2023 Global StarCraft II League Season 3: Code S in shaky form. He is 3-4 across his last seven outings, whereas Dark is 6-4 across his last 10, although most of his wins came against weaker opponents.
Dark should win, but we’re getting a generous offer on DRG to steal a map. Despite DRG’s poor head-to-head record, Dark has not been playing well recently, and the last time Dark struggled with his form, he lost to DRG. So, taking the outsider with a map advantage at $2.20 in this situation is more than fair.

Byun “ByuN” Hyun-woo is 7-1 up in the head-to-head against Maxwell “Astrea” Angel this year and 27-8 all-time. However, ByuN is only 2-1 across his last three meetings with the American SCII pro and 5-4 in maps won.
Even though ByuN holds an imposing record, he has dropped at least one map against Astrea across his last three meetings, which suggests that this match has the potential to be closer than the offered SCII betting odds suggest. On the other hand, Astrea has a terrible record against Terran players (40.48% win rate over the last 42 games), whereas ByuN is 97-34 against Protoss players (74.05%).
Astrea looked decent in his last three meetings with ByuN but hasn’t shown much over the last month. At the offered odds with esports betting sites, we prefer ByuN to sweep.
