Matchförutsägelse: Team Aster - PSG.LGD | Dota 2
The International 2022The main competitive dota event of the year continues. In Singapore, the 4th day of the playoffs is underway, which will be the final in the first round of the playoffs.
Already on October 24, the teams will go on a break, but who will get to the next stage is a big question. Team Aster and PSG.LGD will be the first contenders to advance to the final stage of The International 2022 main event.
Chinese derby of TOP-clubs for a place in the TOP-4 - what could be better, you ask? Is it a fact that the teams will play in the match for life, which means that one of the Chinese clubs will end up here on their way to the Aegis of Champions.
We figure out which of the Chinese will remain the last representative of their region.
Form PSG.LGD
PSG.LGD will play as the favorite in this match. The chance of success of last year's vice-champions is estimated by the bookmaker's odds in the region.
As I said once, in fact, in every match where PSG.LGD will play, the Chinese team will play the role of a favorite. The credibility of PSG.LGD is very high.
The team led by xiao8 has been achieving this for years, but nothing lasts forever. PSG.LGD - too.
No, I'm not saying that the club is weak or overrated, it's nonsense. But the fact that PSG.LGD are far from their best condition is a fact.
Although PSG.LGD played the season with dignity and in their own way, outplaying rivals in the region and showing a decent level in the international arena, even then, PSG.LGD should have been worth a closer look. I remember the final DPC tour in China, where the titans of competitive dota gave away points to less title teams.
At The International 2022, the abscess opened up again.
PSG.LGD results at The International 2022
At the main event, PSG.LGD got into Group A, where they were opposed by Evil Geniuses, Team Liquid, OG, Royal Never Give Up and other top teams. I wouldn't say that PSG.LGD didn't care who they played with, but there was no question of the unconditional leadership of the Chinese.
The team got off to a terrible start to the group stage, where Secret dealt cards to Hokori, Soniqs, lost to EG. Then the team remembered how they played in the past years and we saw those same PSG.LGD, but not for long.
Having gathered into a fist, PSG.LGD advanced to the playoffs, where Team Secret became their first rival. Then it seemed that now PSG.LGD would resurrect like a phoenix and go straight through the playoffs. No matter how.
What they did with PSG.LGD Team Secret, the Chinese club has not experienced for a long time. Toothless loss brought PSG.LGD to the lower bracket.
In the loser bracket, PSG.LGD got a fairly passing bracket, but not a free one. First, BOOM got on their nerves on the second map, and then there were COVID Beastcoast. The Peruvians sucked all the juice out of PSG.LGD, but failed to make it to victory.
Such a game is not a sign of a championship. This is far from being from the grand final, this is the ceiling at the current stage.
PSG.LGD roster
- Ame
- NothingToSay
- Faith_bian
- XinQ
- y`
This tournament is the last chance to win the Aegis in such a roster. Now it is difficult to predict whether PSG.LGD will succeed, but, of course, there are prerequisites for this.
Heroes PSG.LGD
Primal Beast, Slark, Puck appear in spades, but there are also Zeus with Terrorblade. PSG.LGD continues to rate Tiny for XinQ, but there is no noticeable impact from him.
On the second day of the group stage, they added Natures Prophet to the first position and Pangolier for NothingToSay. Also flashed Venomancer and other "nice" heroes for the pace. However, later they came to the more standard characters listed above. Weakly cope with aggressive picks, which we saw in the match against Team Secret.
Team Aster Uniform
Team Aster will play here as an outsider. The chance of the Chinese team to win is estimated by the odds around 2.6.
The gap between the teams is not big, but it is there. Almost twice, which does not quite reflect reality.
If we look at these teams in a vacuum, PSG.LGD is definitely in favor: the team knows how to play Aster both in their home league and in international events. In terms of results, PSG.LGD is also far ahead.
If we are talking about this season, it is already doubtful. Aster constantly followed on the heels.
Speaking about The International itself, parity emerges between the teams. Even more - Aster looks prettier.
Team Aster results at The International 2022
Team Aster qualified for The International 2022 directly, as did PSG.LGD. We ended up in Group B, where we faced Tundra, Secret, Thunder, Spirit and other top clubs.
Like PSG.LGD, the team went through the group stage with grief in half. Aster took the last, fourth place to get into the upper bracket.
Here in the playoffs, PSG.LGD proved to be better than their counterparts. The team outplayed the vigorous Team Liquid in the first round, both from a position of strength and a comeback on the second map.
Against the Tundra Aster was not visible. They tried closing the second map with Shadow Fiend, but that's not the choice for Monet.
Team Aster roster
- Monet
- Ori
- xxs
- BoBoKa
- 皮球
Often “sinking” Ori plays reliably in this tournament. Paired with Monet, they look unbreakable, which allows Aster to win.
Heroes Team Aster
At The International 2022, the team is not reinventing the wheel. They play wild, picking Mars, Puck, Tiny, Snapfire, Mars, Primal Beast, Marci, Visage.
There is nothing supernatural, except perhaps for playing on “classic” cores like Sven, Luna and Drow Ranger. Monet doesn't play Shadow Fiend and other non-conventional heroes that are strong right now.
History of personal confrontations
This season, Aster and PSG.LGD played 5 times during the ranking season in China. Out of 5 matches, Aster won 3 meetings.
Match outcome
Very conflicting thoughts arise about this fight. The Chinese derby is always a gamble in terms of picking a winner. This year is even more controversial.
Well, they don't play PSG.LGD for a pass to the TOP-4, but they will pass. Because it's The International, because it's PSG.LGD. Aster showed a good game exactly before Tundra Esports, but PSG.LGD was also barely a “soul in the body”. Nevertheless, I see victory for them, but I will be glad to be wrong, because Ame and the company with such a lax game do not deserve the next tour of The International 2022.
Result: PSG.LGD win.
