The second of the Garena Free Fire World Series tournaments in a year is set to take place in Bangkok on November 25-26, with 17 of the best Free Fire teams in the world taking part. Prior to the main finals round, there is a play-in round, from which only four teams out of nine will qualify and join the eight teams that have already qualified for the big event.
The team finishing first is set to win $500,000, the team in second place will win $250,000, and the team in third and fourth will win $100,000 from a total prize pool of $1,780,000.
Keyd (+300), EVOS Phoenix (+400) and HQ Esports (+550) are some of the teams that are standing out in the Free Fire Series title odds, but they’ll be given a real challenge by the likes of Ignis Esports (+650), Nigma Galaxy (+900) and others.

Favorites To Win In The Free Fire Series Title Odds
Keyd (+300)
The Brazilian team recently won the LBFF (Liga Brasileira de Free Fire) Season 8, which has given them the best Free Fire Series title odds heading into this tournament. This is the case despite Keyd finishing in fourth place in the Free Fire Series in Sentosa that took place earlier in the year.
They are undoubtedly the best team in the South American region, but it has not been easy for them to dominate outside their comfort zone. They have the experience, and it is now time for them to stake a claim at the very top.
EVOS Phoenix (+400)
The big problem for EVOS Phoenix is that they’re playing the play-ins, which has seen their odds drop. Like Keyd, they also finished in fourth place in the Free Fire Series in Sentosa, and are capable of performing at a far higher level with the likes of The Cruz and DLong in their squad.
They have won a Free Fire Series before, which is why they find themselves so high up the Free Fire Series title odds, but they now need to live up to their great reputation.
Value Picks To Win In The Free Fire Series Outright Odds
HQ Esports (+550)
The Vietnamese outfit has already won the Vietnam Free Fire League for this year, and constantly ends up with podium finishes, but getting to the very top is something that has eluded them in recent times.
They are one of the most consistent sides in the world, and will not be an easy match for any of the teams. They have the players within their ranks to go up against anyone.
Ignis Esports (+650)
Ignis Esports had a tough time in the last Free Fire Series, finishing in 13th place, but they’ve since bounced back and shown their true qualities by qualifying directly and winning the FFL Latinoamerica Closing 2022 a while back. Having said that, it’s hard to see them going all the way.
Betting Strategy for Winners of the Free Fire Series
Last time’s winners, Attack All Around, will not be taking part this time, which leaves things very wide open in the Free Fire Series title odds. The likes of Vasto Mundo (+1100) could also surprise everyone like they did last time by finishing third. It feels like a three-way tie between Keyd, EVOS Phoenix and HQ Esports.
EVOS Phoenix will have some unfinished business from last time out and are excellent value. Keyd heads into this tournament with pedigree and has shown excellent form in recent times. It’s no surprise that they are one of the favorites this time out.
HQ Esports might look at this tournament as a chance for them to live up to the potential that they’ve promised over the last three to four years. The three big contenders have strong narratives for why they should win it, but only one can come out on top.
It feels like EVOS Phoenix’s title to lose. They are also an excellent bet because they offer better value than Keyd. Keyd doesn’t have enough about them to suggest that they are better, and HQ Esports have never actually finished the job like EVOS Phoenix. We think EVOS Phoenix are a safe value bet.
