Matchförutsägelse: Team Secret - Tundra Esports | Dota 2

Welcome to EGamersWorld!

We are getting closer to the final of DPC 2023: WEU Division 1 Tour 3, but before that we have prepared a betting tip on Team Secret - Tundra Esports. The teams will open the penultimate day of games for the 2023 season in Western Europe.

A high-profile encounter, but a seemingly obvious outcome. The level of the teams this year is vastly different, and indeed the current situation in the tournament is radically different.

Tundra Esports is 99% likely to be at The International 2023 without any of the IO Bali Major 2023 and so on. However, the team clearly intends to finish the season in first place and for that they only need to beat Secret.

Puppey and company have effectively left the top division. The team occupies the last line in the standings and only a miracle will save them.

We are trying to figure out whether this miracle will happen in the match Tundra - Secret or everything will go on as usual, without much The International regs.

Tundra Esports uniforms

Let's start the parsing of the match by analyzing the playing form of Tundra Esports. In this match, they will play in the status of favorites of the meeting.

The chance of Tundra to win is estimated at odds in the region of 1.1. The bookmakers have made their choice and it seems very logical.

Tundra and Secret are on different levels of understanding of Dota right now, although they very recently played each other in the finals of The International 2022. The enormous difference between the teams is shown by their yearly results.

In the first round of DPC 2023, Tundra only finished in the Top 4 after the tiebreaker, finishing in the Top 3 at the end of the season. This gave them an opportunity to play at The Lima Major 2023, which they failed, finishing in the top-12.

Things got better in the second DPC cycle. Tundra again had a replay and again they managed it, only this time it was a match for the top 2 division. Things went better on the international stage as well, at the ESL One Berlin Major 2023, where the reigning world champions The International finished in the Top 6.

• Tundra Esports: skiter, Nine, 33, Saksa, Sneyking.

Saksa has been on loan from Tundra for the 2023 season until Long Songpeg. The Macedonian is understandable, after all the schedule of official matches for top teams is tense and tiredness will catch up sooner or later.

However, Tundra did not have a long break, and soon Saksa returned under the Tundra banner. He did so just before Long Soping DPC 2023.

Apparently, the break did the trick, as Tundra played better in the third round. Before the Long Sogpeg match against Secret, they have not lost a single game and have a serious chance of closing the league without a single defeat.

Tundra Esports' most popular heroes

The most frequent guest of the current DPC draw is Visage for the third position. The character has appeared 3 times and has 2 wins.

Next are Keeper of the Light, Faceless Void, Dark Willow, Spirit Breaker, Ursa and Oracle. Each has 2 matches, but only Keeper of the Light and Faceless Void have won their games.

Tunra may want to "rest" in the last match of DPC 2023: WEU Upper Division, but even then they will be stronger than Secret. Puppey need to rebuild the roster again.

Team Secret form

Let's continue with the analysis of the match by analysing the playing form of Team Secret. They're relegated to No. 2 in this contest - the role of the underdog.

The bookmakers confirm Team Secret's status. The odds on Team Puppey to win are estimated at around 4.6.

To tell you the truth, I'm surprised by such a figure. As far as I'm concerned, Secret show that they play for odds in the region of 6-7, but not 4.6. See for yourself.

Secret have changed their line-up since reaching the 2022 International finals, but their performance has been critically affected. So critically that Secret completely failed in their first DPC season, relegated to the second division.

In the second DPC cycle, Secret played in the second division. There Team Puppey won the league, which was expected, but still.

• Team Secret line-up: Crystallis, Armel, BOOM, yamich, Puppey.

The return to League One was supposed to be a triumph, but it turned out to be a flop. Secret are terrible and there's no hiding it.

Puppey's team is in last place in the standings before the Long Sogpeg game against Tundra Esports. Secret is 1-5 in the series and 5-10 in the map and only a win here could give a slim chance of clinching a replay and as a consequence stay in the top division.

The most popular heroes of Team Secret

Among the most chosen heroes of Secret are Mirana, Tusk and Primal Beast. All have 6 matches and 83% of wins.

In addition Monkey King and Ember Spirit appeared in spades (5 games and 100% wins each). Death Prophet also played 5 matches, however she won 4 matches.

Also took Jakiro (3 matches, 100% wins), Enchantress (3 matches, 100% wins). Abaddon (2 matches, 66% wins), Broodmother (2 matches, 100% wins).

It's hard to say why Secret are so helpless when competing against the top teams in the region. Perhaps the squad Puppey assembled has not lived up to his hopes and it's time to look again for hidden talents, but does the legendary captain still have some powder? Has Puppey exhausted himself after all these years? The change of generations is a merciless thing.

History of head-to-head encounters

The last time the teams crossed paths was in the first round of DPC 2023. Tundra Esports secured a very solid 2-0 win back then.

Result of the match

As much as we wouldn't like to see any surprises and surprises here, I'm afraid it will end quickly and predictably. Tundra will win this match 2-0, even if they play at half strength.

Secret, on the other hand, let's wish them luck in the next DPC cycle, in the second division. You'll be in for a hell of a fight there.

The outcome: a 2-0 win for Tundra.
