Forutsigelse av kamp: Xtreme Gaming - PSG Quest | Dota 2
Riyadh Masters 2023 - Group StageWelcome to EGamersWorld.
The main group stage of the Riyadh Masters 2023 begins in Riyadh. As funny as it sounds, it really is. Main Group Stage.
Quest Esports and Xtreme Gaming will play in one of the first parallel matches. The match, as before, will be played in a bo2 format.
The match promises to be The International interesting and there are several reasons for that. Firstly, it is a battle between China and Western Europe, the strongest and one of the strongest regions.
Secondly, these are heated teams and therefore it should be The International heresy. Both Quest and Xtreme have already proven themselves at the Play-In and know roughly what to expect from each other. Also, this is a rematch of the Play-In matchup.
We will also try to predict what to expect from this match, whether one of the teams will get their first win in the new round or if it will end in a draw.
Let's go.
Quest Esports uniforms
Let's open the match with a look at the Quest Esports uniforms. In this match the team will play in the status of favourites.
Bookmakers believe in the success of Quest Esports. The chance of their victory in this match is estimated at odds around 2.7.
Although for Bo2 this parameter is far from critical and does not allow to confidently call Quest the winner of the match. And the advantage in this game is earned thanks to their recent successes on the international stage.
Quest Esports have been one of the major revelations of the season. It was hard to imagine them in the Top 4 Major, but they are here.
They started their rise to the top of Major a with a top-5 finish at DPC 2023: WEU. Then the team was one map short of reaching the Berlin Major 2023, but not enough.
In the third round of DPC 2023: WEU Tour 3 the team again showed a top game and that time they had enough. It was enough for the top 3 of the tournament, and as a result, they made it to The Bali Major 2023.
- Quest Esports roster: TA2000, No!ob, Malik, OmaR, kaori.
During the Bali Major 2023 Quest Esports showed from the very beginning of the tournament that they did not come there to rest. The team finished top-1 in their group and then went to play in the top set of play-offs. In the end, Quest's jaunt through The Bali Major 2023 ended with them in 4th place.
Having travelled to the Riyadh Masters 2023 with a replacement in the lineup, Quest Esports did not lose their team scilll. In their Play-In group the team took a confident first place, losing only 1 match out of 5. By the way, they lost only to Xtreme Gaming.
The most popular Quest Esports characters
Among the most popular Quest characters are Shadow Demon (14 matches, 71% wins), Snapfire (14 matches, 64% wins), Techies (12 matches, 83% wins).
Also playing with Undying (9 games, 77% wins), Templar Assassin (8 matches, 50% wins).
There is also Silencer (7 games, 100% wins), Medusa (7 games, 100% wins), Doom (7 matches, 85% wins), Enchantress (7 matches, 71% wins).
Xtreme Gaming uniforms
We continue the match analysis with an analysis of Xtreme Gaming's form. In this match they will play in the status of an outsider.
Despite Xtreme's victory over Quest in the Play-In match, bookmakers are still not ready to call them a contender for victory. The odds are sitting at around 4.9.
Such a gap between Quest and Xtreme is not difficult to understand. The latter lacks quality game experience on the international stage. And they haven't played their best at home either.
Xtreme has been having problems all year. They started with the regional league in China.
At DPC 2023: China Upper Division, Xtreme Gaming finished in the top 5. For a team with such a roster, that result was not just unacceptable, but rather terrible.
The deplorable state of Xtreme Gaming became even more evident after The Lima Major 2023, where Paparazzi and company did not qualify. At the tournament in Peru, only Aster and PSG.LGD showed some promise, while Knights and Ehome, who Xtreme Ledge played in their home league, were suspected of using cheats and ceased to exist after Lima.
However, Xtreme managed to pull itself together. The team called up the experienced Kaka for the fourth position and started to play. Xtreme won their home league with this squad. In this lineup they travelled to Berlin, where they made it to the group stage of The Berlin Major 2023. However, they finished in the top 12, which is not very good.
The third round was a nightmare for Xtreme. They finished in the top 5, which is not a critical indicator, but for teams of Paparazzi and company level, not making it to the Major with not the strongest competition is a failure.
- Xtreme Gaming lineup: Ghost, Paparazzi, JT, XinQ, Dy .
Before the Long Copeg Riyadh Masters 2023 Xtreme Gaming pulled out XinQ from the stash. The transfer looks like a success so far, as Xtreme made it to the group stage from the second place Play-In.
They went 3-1-1, swapping maps with Secret and Ledgeiv in the 9Pandas match.
The most popular Xtreme Gaming heroes
The most popular hero of Xtreme Gaming is Storm Spirit. Paparazzi played it 5 times, but won only 2 matches.
We also took Alchemist (4 matches, 75% wins), Phoenix (4 matches, 50% wins), Keeper of the Light (4 matches, 25% wins), Rubick (4 matches, 25% wins).
There was also Pangolier, Underlord, Pugna, Dragon Knight. All heroes appeared 3 times and won 2 matches each.
Head-to-head history
The teams have already played each other in Play-In Riyadh Masters 2023. Xtreme won that time.
Match outcome
After Xtreme's victory in the previous head-to-head match, the logical decision would be to bet on their success here as well. However, I don't think history will repeat itself this time.
After taking a closer look at each other, the teams may exchange maps. That will be my bet.
Bottom line: a draw.
Xtreme Gaming is the 11th team of the world ranking. DPC is quite successful for the team. Of course, they do not mark the first position in the table, but the 3-4th place is assured, which means that they pass to the major. We have not seen the organisation for a long time, so we are still watching.
Quest Esports is the 4th team of the world ranking. In the first round DPC in the 2nd division took 1st place and secured their place in the 1st division. In the 2nd round of DPC guys almost managed to reach the major, but not enough just a little bit. They took 5th place, giving their place to OG. The team leaves Wuiter and is replaced by ATF. With this lineup in the 3rd round of DPC we get the 3rd place, which is very strong for this region. In addition, recently Qualifiers for the Riyadh Masters 2023 were held, among which the incomplete squad of Secret, Nigma and Dota Enjoyer participated. Quest won at these qualifiers. Breaking into the world of major tournaments with a 4th place finish at Bali Major. A very good result.
Xtreme won the previous group stage 2 0. Can't argue that the chances of winning at least one map are much higher than 2 0 from Quest. Outsider's Forecast.
I'm a prognosticator, I live only for this. I devote all my time to it. There are no other interests.
I have been doing this for quite a long time and have achieved some success in it. Whether to believe me or not is up to everyone. But why not give it a try? Maybe you like this kind of life!
Prediction: Xtreme +1.5!
