Matchförutsägelse: Gaimin Gladiators - Team Spirit | Dota 2
BetBoom Universe: Episode I - Comics ZoneBB Universe: Episode I - Comics Zone is slowly but surely coming to an end. There are 3 teams left in the race for the main cash prize of $60,000.
Tundra Esports, Gaimin Gladiators and Team Spirit play for the champion title. The first ones are already in the grand final, where they will wait for the winner of the GG - TS pair.
Gaimin Gladiators made it to the loser's final after losing 0-2 to Tundra Esports. The International champions were not hindered by the absence of two key players.
Team Spirit, on the other hand, fell into the lower part of the bracket a round earlier. The Dragons lost to the same Tundra, after which they started their comeback in the lower bracket.
Let's figure out which team will make up Tundra Esports in the grand final of BetBoom Universe: Episode I - Comics Zone.
Gaimin Gladiators Uniform
Let's start the analysis of the match with the Gaimin Gladiators uniform. They are the favorites in this match.
The bookie with the smallest margin is called GG as the winner of the match. Such an outcome is estimated by a coefficient in the region of 1.8.
Guided by common sense, one can easily understand that we actually have parity. Pretty logical, given the level of teams remaining on BetBoom Universe: Episode I - Comics Zone.
Lineup GG
There are no substitutions in the Gaimin Gladiators roster for the tournament. It seems that this should play in favor of the “gladiators”, but this is not always the case.
Gaimin Gladiators Players
- DyrachYO
- Quinn
- Ace
- tOfu
- Celeri
After a successful first season of DPC 2023, Gamin Gladiators enthusiastically accepted the invitation to the main stage of BetBoom Universe: Episode I - Comics Zone.
Here you have a very solid prize fund for a championship outside the Valve ecosystem, as well as a place for practice. The latter is especially relevant on the eve of the start of the February Lima Major 2023.
Performance of Gladiators
After the replacement of BOOM and the arrival of Quinn to the team, the team did not lose in performance. In some places even purchased.
So, before the start of BetBoom Universe: Episode I - Comics Zone, the team took 2nd place at DPC 2023: WEU Upper Division, which opened up the opportunity for GG to go to Lima Major 2023. In addition, the performance in the upper division of Western Europe contributed to the invitation of the team to local tournament from BB.
Gaimin Gladiators started their way to Comics Zone from the playoff bracket. In their debut match, Gaimin Gladiators played against Virtus.pro and easily closed the Bears 2-0 in 50 minutes in total.
The next opponent in the playoffs was GG's colleagues from Western Europe, the Entity team. That match was remembered for a quick exchange of two maps and memorable red tape at the match point, as a result of which GG turned out to be stronger (2-1).
GG's most epic game was the match against Tundra Esports in the upper bracket final. There GG lost 0-2, and a particularly rotten performance was given by Quinn on Huskar with the 24th pick and DyrachYO on Pudge.
Heroes Gaimin Gladiators
Gaimin Gladiators as part of the BetBoom Universe: Episode I - Comics Zone didn't invent the wheel. The team played within the BB Universe in a very mediocre way, without resorting to special experiments (with the exception of Huskar for Quinn).
The most popular characters for the couple are Pudge and Crystal Maiden. Both characters have spawned 7 times and both have a 42% win rate.
Another popular guest is Natures Prophet. He is used both in position 1 and 3, and the win rate of the hero is 50% of wins,
Tusk and Rubick were also popular. The heroes have appeared in 5 matches and both have a win rate of 60%.
Team Spirit Uniform
Opposing GG on the way to the grand final of BetBoom Universe: Episode I - Comics Zone will be Team Spirit. As a nominal outsider.
The bookmakers actually put Spirit on the same level as the future opponent. The chance of the “dragons” to win is estimated by the coefficient in the region of 1.9.
As mentioned above, such a difference is absolutely not fundamental, and is most likely caused by the early fall of Spirit into the lower bracket of the table. The rest of the team is quite cheerful, although it is clearly not playing in peak condition.
Team Spirit roster
They came to the Spirit tournament fully armed. They don't have any replacements, but play with the roster that was introduced at DPC 2023: EEU Upper Division. Absolutely logical in the Spirit situation.
Team Spirit Players
- Yatoro
- Larl
- collapse
- Mira
- Miposhka
The arrival of Larl to the team slightly changed Spirit's approach to the game, and now the “dragons” need to build additional synergy between the performers. BB Comics Zone is quite a suitable place for such processes.
Team Spirit Performance
Team Spirit started the year with a very confident bid for future success in the DPC 2023. The team took 2nd place, losing in the BB championship match with a score of 1-2.
Then the team received a direct invitation from the organizers of Cosmic Zone, which is quite obvious. The tournament is hybrid, representatives of Eastern and Western Europe play, and calling the champions of Eastern Europe BB Team, holding a tournament under the auspices of BB, is somehow too much.
Team Spirit played their first match in the upper bracket of the playoffs against Ooredoo Thunders. Already there, it was clear that Comics Zone was nothing more than a reason to practice: Spirit closed down less eminent colleagues in the shop without problems after losing on the 1st map and close battles on the 2nd and 3rd.
In the second match, Spirit played against the current world champions from Tundra Esports. Without replacements, the European grand looked strong, but Spirit fought, although in the end they lost (1-2).
In the lower bracket, Spirit played against the new Alliance formation. Bo3 ended on the third map in favor of TS.
Before the match with GG Team Spirit, we met another team from Western Europe, but also major participants - Entity. The battle began as an absolute wipe of Spirit from the map, but ended with the victory of the “dragons” with a score of 2-1.
Heroes Team Spirit
Spirit's approach to drafting hasn't changed much since the end of DPC 2023: WEU - Upper Division. The Dragons are still happy to use Tusk (9 matches, 77% wins), Snapfire (9 matches, 77% wins), Rubick (8 games, 75% wins).
Mirana is chosen a little less often (6 matches, 50% of wins). Even rarer are Natures Prophet, Sniper (6 games each, 60% win rate) and Tiny (6 matches, 40% win rate).
History of personal confrontations
Previously, the teams managed to play with each other. In the new season, they crossed paths twice in the BB Xmas Show and are 1-1 in head-to-head statistics.
Match outcome
The duel should turn out to be fervent, as two well-playing teams (in general) are fighting, which managed to become principal rivals. I think Spirit wants to avenge the loss in the Xmas Show grand final.
It seems that Spirit will have such a chance. I didn't like the last game GG, where they did not understand what. Spirit is also not without sin, but by the standards of the tournament, they have been in the lower bracket for a long time, and “dragons” know how to play there, as we remember from TI 2021. In addition, yesterday’s victory over Entity gave “dragon” a good moral boost.
Outcome: the victory of Spirit.
