Hiro and Ruxic are going to have to be on good days because they are Navi's win conditions.

Otherwise, M8 has ample capacity to do well and win this match against Navi.

I see a 2/0 M8 or a 2/1 M8.

M8 wins here a 2-1 close match but with a Hiro/Ruxic/Shao life game (smokes doesn't appears on their screens) It could be different... It's 2-1 for M8 or NAVI for sure !
