Lilgun Prediction - BOOM Esports
We return to Southeast Asia, namely to the group stage of BTS Pro Series Season 12: Southeast Asia. Today we'll talk about the second match of the first gaming day, in which BOOM Esports will face Lilgun. Previously, the teams met each other three times, and all three times the victory went to BOOM Esports. Today they will again have to determine the strongest in the bo2 format.
BOOM Esports Uniform
The team has shown itself excellently in the DPC series since the beginning of the season. Playing in the first division, the team proved to be a clear favorite. DPC SEA 2021/2022 Tour 1: Division I, the team finished in 1st place, after which DPC won the silver medal at stage 2. On the third round of DPC SEA 2021/2022, the players broke into the leaders again and snatched the victory. Things went much worse at major tournaments, PGL Arlington Major 2022 ended in 7-8th place, ESL One Stockholm 2022 in 9-12th place, ESL One Malaysia 2022 in 9-10th place.
In any case, the team has already qualified for the upcoming The International 2022 thanks to DPC points, so participation in such a small tournament can be called an easy warm-up.

From the beginning of 2022, certain changes have taken place in the roster. Tino sat on the bench and was replaced by JACKBOYS from T1, initially as a substitute, but a month later, he joined the line-up on a permanent basis. At the end of August shycodelix joined in the role of assistant manager.

Heroes of BOOM Esports
Participants of the upcoming TI 2022 are required to have an extensive pool of heroes, and the team has coped with this. JACKBOYS most often chooses Faceless Void (78 matches, 70% of wins), Juggernaut (72 matches, 63% of wins). Tims is great on Mirana (123 matches, 72% win rate), and Earth Spirit (112 matches, 58% win rate). Skem often plays Nature's Prophet (73 matches, 72% win rate) and Gyrocopter (60 matches, 70% win rate). Fbz favors Mars (98 matches, 64% win rate) and Beastmaster (69 matches, 69% win rate). Yopaj is more likely to pick Ember Spirit (155 matches, 67% win rate) and Templar Assassin (139 matches, 70% win rate).
Lilgun form
A slightly less eminent team also showed itself well from the beginning of the season. Playing in the first division at DPC SEA 2021/2022, the team successfully won prizes in all three rounds. The first and second stages of DPC SEA 2021/2022 ended for the team in 4th place, and in the last third stage, the players made their way to the tops and finished their performance in 2nd place. Unlike their future rivals, they failed to qualify for The International 2022. The last qualifications in Southeast Asia - The International 2022: Southeast Asia Qualifier, ended for the team with a relegation in 9-12th place.

The main game roster has not changed since the beginning of 2022. At the beginning of June, MaRveL, acting as a stand-in, moved to KOBOLDS. Separately, I would like to note that almost all members of the team have not previously performed on the professional stage, and Lilgun became their debut club.

Heroes Lilgun
The team also has a great pool of meta heroes. Sanctity - performs well on Templar Assassin (120 matches, 67% win rate) and Tiny (95 matches, 57% win rate). Eleven often plays Mars (76 matches, 55% win rate), and Sand King (60 matches, 65% win rate). Knishka prefers Rubick (78 matches, 57% win rate), Nyx Assassin (66 matches, 54% win rate). 432 is preferred more often than others by Lycan (72 matches, 67% of wins), Broodmother (51 matches, 70% of wins). Ace12 plays on Grimstroke (156 matches, 53% win rate) and Bane (104 matches, 63% win rate).
Match prediction
This meeting is perhaps the most interesting of the first gaming day. On the one hand, BOOM Esports are clear favorites, having played well in DPC seasons, and passed to TI 2022. On the other hand, Lilgun, like outsiders, but not particularly weak, also played well in DPC, but with less performance. I think it may well be a draw, but still I will assume a victory for BOOM Esports.
Outcome: BOOM Esports victory
