Bad News Eagles vs VERTEX will be the Group B opener at the ESL Challenger Melbourne 2023
Bad News Eagles will look to follow up their marvelous Paris Major 2023 European RMR campaign with a strong start at the ESL Challenger Melbourne 2023. Other than their home team status, VERTEX don’t have much to claim that they would be the CSGO betting favorites in this tie. The Australians managed to win only once in their last five matches, so they will be going into this tie as the underdogs.
Bad News Eagle
The Bad News Eagles’ victory over GamerLegion in the Europe RMR A fourth-place decider has secured their place in the Legends Stage at the BLAST.tv Paris Major. BLAST’s seeding dilemma did cast a shadow of controversy over the tie, but the Kosovans would not object as they banked on their strong start on Mirage to win the opening map 16-7. GamerLegion equalized with a narrow win on Ancient, but BNE sealed the deal with another commanding 16-7 victory on the decisive Vertigo map.

VERTEX
Vertex have been struggling for form in recent weeks. After a series of defeats, they seemingly turned things around with an ESL Australia and NZ Championship Season 16 win against Encore. Their ecstasy was shortlived, however, as fellow Australian side Grayhound beat them 2-1 in the following match.
