Our Predictions For PGL Wallachia Season 7
Although Team Falcons, Team Liquid, Tundra Esports, and Aurora Gaming all enter PGL Wallachia Season 7 as strong contenders, the tournament is not heavily weighted toward any particular favorite, as many teams are capable of making an upset.
Importantly, the event lands right after DreamLeague Season 28 and a week before ESL One Birmingham, meaning fatigue and burnout could open the door for surprise runs or early exits in both the Group Stage and Playoffs.
Important: These predictions reflect the perceived strength of teams based on historical trends and the latest available odds. This analysis should not be interpreted as betting advice. Past performance does not guarantee future outcomes. Always gamble responsibly.
Tundra Esports (#1)
Tundra Esports enters PGL Wallachia Season 7 with outright odds of 5.50 and a 15.4% implied probability to make a deep run for the title.
On paper, the upside is obvious. Tundra not only has insane macroplay but fields a star-studded lineup that includes prodigy midlaner bzm and two-time The International champion 33 in the offlane, with supports Ari and Whitemon enabling them from the backlines.
Their acquisition of Pure last year, who’s one of the best Dota 2 carries, further strengthens the team. He brings mechanical skill, aggression, and playmaking potential to a team that rarely crumbles under pressure.
Despite early exits at DreamLeague Season 27 and BLAST Slam VI, Tundra seemingly returned to the peak form that earned them titles at nearly every BLAST Slam last year. They placed 1st at DreamLeague Season 28 after posting statement matches against top competitors, sweeping Liquid 2–0 and beating Aurora 3–1 in the Grand Final.
With a track record of crushing victories, Tundra’s playbook contains all the tools to add the PGL Wallachia Season 7 trophy to their cabinet.
Tundra Esports roster:
- Ivan “Pure” Moskalenko
- Bozhidar “bzm” Bogdanov
- Neta “33” Shapira (Captain)
- Matthew “Ari” Walker
- Matthew “Whitemon” Filemon
- David “MoonMeander” Tan (Coach)
Aurora Gaming (#2)
Aurora has been on a tear recently, so it’s no surprise they rank #2 in our PGL Wallachia Season 7 betting predictions.
While it’s still quite early, the addition of Ws and kaori to replace TORONTOTOKYO and Oli has paid dividends, with the team performing well against challenging opposition.
After winning FISSURE Universe: Episode 8, they won DreamLeague Season 28, topping Group Stage 1 with a 12–2 record and closing out Group Stage 2 11–8 to secure a Playoffs berth. They then beat Xtreme and Liquid before falling 3–1 to Tundra in the Grand Final, earning 2nd place.
At outright odds of 6.30 and a 15.9% implied probability of victory, Aurora could represent solid value, but it depends heavily on Nightfall’s ability to convert the space created for him into late-game wins.
Aurora Gaming roster:
- Egor “Nightfall” Grigorenko
- Rafli “Mikoto” Rahman
- Chung “Ws” Shen
- Myroslav “Mira” Kolpakov
- Oleh “kaori” Medvedok
- Sergei “G” Bragin (Head Coach)
Team Liquid (#3)
While outright odds of 5.00 imply a 20.0% chance to win, Team Liquid ranks #3 in our PGL Wallachia Season power rankings.
The team’s 2026 campaign opened in convincing fashion, posting a 10–4 record in Groups before defeating Team Falcons, OG, and NAVI en route to lifting the BLAST Slam VI trophy.
Far from a fluke, the team then carried that momentum into DreamLeague Season 28, doubling down with a flawless 7–0 streak in Group Stage 2 to reach the Upper Bracket Final, eventually falling to Tundra and Aurora to finish in 3rd place.
Historically, Team Liquid has not always been consistent, but they are still the team to beat on paper. The addition of tOfu and Ace also strengthens their play and complements a strong core of Nisha, arguably the world’s best midlaner, and MiCKe’s reliability and high skill ceiling in the safelane.
If Liquid stay on form in PGL Wallachia Season 7, outright odds of 5.00 could prove generous, though their past volatility makes them better suited for each-way or top-3 markets than a full outright bet.
Team Liquid roster:
- Michael “miCKe” Vu (Captain)
- Michał “Nisha” Jankowski
- Marcus “Ace” Hoelgaard
- Samuel “Boxi” Svahn
- Samuel “tOfu” Svahn
- William “Blitz” Lee (Head Coach)
Team Falcons (#4)
The International 2025 champions Team Falcons rank #4 in our PGL Wallachia Season 7 betting predictions, but not for a lack of firepower.
With Artem “lorenof” Melnyk standing in for Malr1ne due to visa issues, Team Falcons won’t field their full roster. This instability may affect the team’s tempo. We actually saw this recently at DreamLeague Season 28, when they were forced to replace ATF with SabeRLight as a stand-in due to health reasons.
Falcons opened the event with a 9–5 map record in Group Stage 1, but regressed to 7–9 by Group Stage 2, narrowly missing the Playoffs to finish in 5th place. Even so, the EMEA giants retain an explosive core built around skiter and ATF, combining aggressive offlane pressure and disciplined macroplay.
At outright odds of 6.00 and an implied 16.7% chance of victory, the market still prices Falcons near peak form. However, without Malr1ne anchoring the midlane, that valuation may not fully reflect their current setup.
Team Falcons roster:
- Oliver “skiter” Lepko
- Artem “lorenof” Melnyk (Stand-in)
- Ammar “ATF” Al-Assaf (Captain)
- Andreas “Crit-” Nielsen
- Wu “Sneyking” Jingjun
- Kurtis “Aui_2000” Ling (Head Coach)
