Forutsigelse av kamp: Team Liquid - HellRaisers | Dota 2

The second stream of games at Lima Major 2023 will not be long in coming. The next round of games will be opened by Liquid and HellRaisers.

One of the group stage matches in which everything seems to be clear before it starts. The level of teams is too different.

Team Liquid made it to the tournament by winning the premium Western Europe. On their way to Lima Major 2023, the Liquids have not lost a single series.

HellRaisers had several incidents along the way. The team managed to break into the TOP-3 of Eastern Europe and secure a place for itself here, but you can't call it easy.

Let's analyze whether HellRaisers will be able to impose a fight on a formidable competitor or whether the match will end with an obvious victory for the Liquids.

Form Team Liquid

Let's start the analysis of the match with an analysis of the game form of Team Liquid. The team is the clear favorite here.

You should not wait for another option: Liquid are the champions of Western Europe, and this, in turn, is the strongest region of modern DotA. It is enough to look at the performance of the local teams in the framework of international events and it becomes clear that this is indeed the case.

Among all these teams, Liquid stand out from the best side. The team has picked up a lot after the transfer window and there are reasons for that.

Composition Liquid

The first reason is personnel changes. The International bronze medalists made one substitution, but it was surgically accurate.

Team Liquid Players

• miCKe
• Nisha
• zai
• Boxi
• iNSaNiA

Nisha became an addition to the team. Even before the potential transfer of the young Pole to the "liquid" there were different opinions regarding the transfer.

I think it's now obvious that Nisha is, if not the most, then one of the most talented players of our time. In Liquid, he got space for creativity, because the backbone of the Swedes have been together for a long time and managed to unite as a team, and this contributed to Nisha's quick adaptation.

Team Liquid performance

Team Liquid played the first season of the DPC almost perfectly. The team has won 7 matches in the home league.

Of the 7 matches, “liquid” lost only 2. Two maps lost in the last two matches, which may hint at their not too serious approach.

Heroes Team Liquid

In their picks, Liquid focuses on Death Prophet (4 matches, 75% wins), Mars (4 matches, 50% wins), Slark (3 matches, 66% wins), Vengeful Spirit (3 matches, 66% wins), Marci and Pudge (3 matches, 66% of wins).

We expect interesting picks from Liquid, because the team's chiropulla is extensive and we know it.

HellRaisers form

We continue the review with an analysis of HellRaisers' game form. The team in this match will appear in the status of an outsider.

The defeat between the teams is too big, which is what the bookmaker is hinting at. The coefficient for winning HR is about 10, and this says a lot.

HR took 3rd place in the regional league, which is not the brightest result. Even against the backdrop of the local scene, HellRaisers looked so-so, to say nothing of the international level, and even more so of Team Liquid.

Composition of HR

The Ukrainian club's roster has undergone major changes in the transfer window. They changed almost everything.

HR players

• Yuragi
• depressed kid
• MieRo`
• Antares
• Solo

Depressed kid, Antares and Solo became new players. The latter is again trying to put together a working team, and so far it seems to be working, but the most interesting thing is ahead.

Lima Major 2023 will be a serious test for HellRaisers, because besides the fact that the team is fresh and at the same time experienced difficulties in the home league, they are also going to the major with a replacement. Yuragi went with HR and I wouldn't call it a boost: he's not ready to carry it, and putting this burden on a depressed kid might not work.

HellRaisers performance

HellRaisers finished the regular season with a score of 4-3. The team managed to jump into the last car of the outgoing train, but besides the regular season, there were other reasons for pride (or not, it’s up to anyone).

HR played at third-party tournaments from BB. Success is doubtful.

BB Universe: Episode 1 - Cosmic Zone became such a championship. There, HellRaisers managed to play in the group stage and pass it, but didn't make it to the playoffs: HR failed the first match in the upper bracket, and then lost to Ooredoo Thunder and left the event.

Heroes HellRaisers

The most picked heroes by HellRaisers were: Enchantress (4 matches, 75% wins), Tusk (4 matches, 75% wins), Alchemist (3 matches, 100% wins), Crystal Maiden (3 matches, 100% wins), Legion Commander (3 matches, 100% wins).

In addition, they like to use meta carries. Of these, Naga Siren (6 matches, 50% wins), Sniper (5 matches, 60% wins) can be noted, but the question is what Yuragi will say about all this.

History of personal confrontations

Previously, the teams did not play each other in official matches. The teams will play their debut face-to-face match within the first round of Lima Major 2023.

The outcome of the fight

In this confrontation, everything is predetermined before it starts. In all respects, Liquid is stronger than their rivals and should close with a score of 2-0.

Here you have a carry replacement before the start of the tournament and an indistinct performance in a commercial tournament, and a very strained game in Eastern Europe. In general, Liquid will close 2-0, I see no other outcome.

Result: 2-0 in favor of Team Liquid.
