Matchförutsägelse: Team Liquid - TSM | Dota 2
The Berlin Major 2023 ESL - Group StageWelcome to EGamersWorld.
We have prepared a betting tip for Team Liquid vs TSM in the group stage of the Berlin Major 2023. The teams will clash face-to-face on April 28 at 12:00 noon CET.
The encounter, let's face it, isn't exactly a top match. On paper, everything is clear-cut here, however, this Major brings its own adjustments.
At the very least, Team Liquid don't look as armoured as they did prior to the Long Cognega Tournament. That makes The International a lot more exciting.
Let us find out what to expect in the Team Liquid - TSM clash and whether there will be a winning team at the end of the game.
Team Liquid form
Let's start the Liquid vs TSM discussion with a predictable analysis of Team Liquid's form. The odds for the team from Europe are around 1.3.
That should be expected. Liquid is still the best team in Western Europe with two DPC 2023 wins under their belt.
Liquid are still good on the international stage, with top-2 results at The Lima Major 2023 and DreamLeague S19. However, things are not so rosy at The Berlin Major 2023.
The team finished the first day with a draw against Team Aster. On the second day, they suffered an upset defeat against 9 Pandas.
The last match in particular The International was a curious one, as Liquid played against a team with a substitute on the captain, and they led with a solid advantage in the course of the match.
- Team Liquid line-up: micKe, Nisha, zai, Boxi, Insania.
It's difficult to explain Liquid's play in this tournament. They seem to be the same "Liquid" with their serious personalities, wide pool and the International hedgehog approach to the spades, but they make offensive blunders that cost them points in the group stage.
The easiest option is to write off the blunders to a patch and wait for Liquid to turn on.
Team Liquid's most popular heroes
The team has taken Chen four times (75% win rate). The Enchantress and Disruptor have a perfect win rate with 3 appearances, while Pangolier, Underlord and Shadow Fiend have a slightly worse rate with 2 wins out of 3.
The successful characters include Necrophos, Beastmaster, Undying, Monkey King, Rubick, Sven and Ember. All of them appeared in spades 2 times each and won both matches.
Overall, Liquid are playing wide, but are getting frankly themselves so far. However, if you believe in the Liquid's comeback, bet on Team Liquid's victory with odds around 1.3.
If, however, the first few games have not inspired you enough to believe in TSM, you should first read up on their form. More on that below.
TSM form
We continue with our match report with an analysis of TSM's form. The American club will play here in underdog status with odds to win at around 5.
Such a figure easily fits into the overall picture of what is happening in the event. If the Liquid are playing slowly, then TSM are performing poorly.
At the end of the first day the American club was in the last place. The team gave up two games without much of a fight and had a 0-4 statistic.
Obviously, it's too early to judge from the first day, but it seems TSM are superfluous in the celebration of life called The Berlin Major 2023. The DPC 2023 regional league seems to be the limit.
- TSM line-up: Timado, Bryle, Kasane, Ari, Whitemon.
They're all dropping out, literally. While previously TSM won due to Timado and Bryle, and the remaining three played as support for the main headliners, at the Berlin Major 2023, the classical duo failed.
This is quite logical, as the map is huge, you need to showcase abilities in macro, and from a practically newly assembled roster. More practice is needed, as the experience gained at Lima Major 2023 and DreamLeague S19 was not enough.
The most popular TSM heroes
In the matches, TSM tried to bring new popular patch heroes like Void Spirit, Alchemist, Underlord into their pool. There was even Medusa, but none of that worked.
TSM has 0 win rate, which means that any heroes they play don't work either. They don't work yet, but it's a really sad start.
If you are ready to believe in the ability of TSM to beat tired Liquid, pick them as a winner of the match with odds around 5.
History of head-to-head encounters
The teams managed to play each other in DreamLeague S19 - Team Liquid obtained the victory.
Result of the match
It's time for Liquid to kick on. After two draws there is a chance not to go to the top of the play-offs, and this is definitely not the Liquid's level.
There are doubts that the Liquid can beat TSM, which they already did at DreamLeague and will do again.
Bottom line: victory for Team Liquid.
TSM are the 28th team in the world rankings. They play well in the DPC rounds, finishing first or second in 1st position. But at the Lima Major, the team is not doing well at all. At the end of the tournament they are in 13th-14th place. In between Valve events they play in BTS Pro Series S13, finishing in the top-2 position, losing to EG in the finals. At Dreamleague Seasone 19 they performed quite well, achieving the 8th position in the final table.
Team Liquid is the 2nd team in the world ranking. At the DPC, the boys have no problems at all. They finished in 1st place in both rounds. But at bigger events they cannot get past Gaimin Gladiators. Both on Lima Major and DreamLeague are in the final table immediately after them on the 2nd place. But still, the team is incredibly strong and compared to the rest of the organizations in the tournament is very prominent.
In this match it's easy. Liquid are on a three-way tie and they simply have to beat such teams to survive.
I'm a betting man, I live for this. I dedicate all my time to it. No other interests.
I have been in this business for a long time and I have had some success. Believe it or not, it's up to everyone. But why not give it a try? Maybe you will like this life too!
