In the group stage of ESL One Kuala Lumpur 2023 for Dota 2, 12 teams were divided into 2 groups, where they played 5 matches against each of their opponents. Only 8 participants advanced to the playoffs, while
Blacklist International,
Wawitas Sagazes,
LGD Gaming, and
9 Pandas were eliminated from the championship. Let's analyze the results of the teams.
Results of 9 Pandas
9 Pandas lost 9 maps, winning only one against
Team Falcons. Many embarrassing moments, but spectators didn't expect much from them. The entire
9 Pandas roster is expecting disbandment. The team showed the worst result last place in Group B ESL One Kuala Lumpur 2023 . Even the role swap of kiyotaka before the last game couldn't change the situation.
Results of Wawitas Sagazes
The best South American team only drew with
BetBoom Team and lost to the rest. With 9 lost maps,
Wawitas Sagazes had the worst result last place in Group A ESL One Kuala Lumpur 2023. It's scary to imagine how the other teams from the region performed.
Results of Blacklist International
Blacklist International played below expectations of analysts and fans. They won 4 maps and were close to reaching the playoffs but still got eliminated from the championship. However, many praised Gabbi's performance.
LGD Gaming at ESL One Kuala Lumpur 2023
LGD Gaming disappointed many fans. Midlaner Emo had the worst performance, but the whole team seemed out of shape. One win against
9 Pandas, two draws, and two losses. Despite winning 4 maps, the team exited the championship.
Team Liquid's Performance
Team Liquid had an average result with two wins and one draw, taking 5 maps out of 10.
Tundra Esports at ESL One Kuala Lumpur 2023

Wawitas Sagazes. All games ended in draws, allowing

Azure Ray's Performance

Azure Ray. The team did not lose a single game, taking 8 maps out of 10. They secured the first place as the best team in Group A ESL One Kuala Lumpur 2023 – a real achievement for the current roster.
