Forutsigelse av kamp: Team Spirit - Evil Geniuses | Dota 2
The Lima Major 2023The group stage at Lima Major 2023 is gaining momentum. The duel of the third stream of games is next in line, which will bring several top confrontations at once.
One of these matches will be a duel between Team Spirit and Evil Geniuses. Both teams are contending for the top seed in the playoffs, and therefore will struggle to score points, especially in face-to-face confrontations.
Spirit, who took second place at DPC 2023: EEU - Upper Division, played the first day of Lima Major 2023 with a score of 2-2, which is not a perfect debut.
Evil Geniuses, in their Peruvian guise, played only 1 match, but today they will play two at once. They are temporarily on the 5th line of the standings with 1-1 statistics on maps.
We figure out which of the teams will be able to improve their performance, if there is one, and how the game will end.
Team Spirit Uniform
Despite not the most confident debut, Team Spirit is still the favorite of the game. I don't quite agree with this.
Bookmakers estimate their chance of winning with odds around 2.5. Not a panacea for bo2, but food for thought, for sure.
It is not entirely clear why Team Spirit is given such a credit of trust. Yesterday, the team looked really sluggish, even in the won series.
Team Spirit roster
We attribute not the most confident game to the Spirit roster. After the departure of TORONTOTOKYO, the team enlisted the support of Larl, but failed to solve the problems to the end.
Team Spirit Players
- Yatoro
- Larl
- collapse
- Mira
- Miposhka
Naturally, you will not be fed up with one midlaner. The newly arrived player plays to the best of his ability, that is, he is healthy, which cannot be said about his teammates.
The duo Collapse and Mira stand out in particular. As for me, Spirit's hardline is now dipped and does not pose a significant threat to opponents
Team Spirit Performance
Team Spirit made it to the Lima Major taking second place in the home league.
The Miposhk-i team won 6 matches, losing the last match. In the finals of Eastern Europe, TS lost to BB in a bright bo3 confrontation, where the main problem of the current roster came out.
She appeared in Spirit during two other tournaments: BB Xmas Show and BB Universe - Comics Zone. Both of Spirit's commercial championships finished in second place.
In the first game, Spirit played against Team SoloMid. The team managed to win with a score of 2-0, but I will not call the match a cakewalk.
The second game was against Gaimin Gladiators. Here Spirit lost, which is rather strange, because in the last head-to-head matches they had an advantage.
Evil Geniuses Form
On the other side of the barricades will be Evil Geniuses. The hosts of the Peruvian Major will play as an outsider.
I repeat, it is not entirely clear why the alignment of forces is such. Evil Geniuses played the only match against a very serious opponent and took the map there, but the gap from Spirit is actually twofold.
The bookmaker evaluates the chance of EG with odds around 4.5. As for me, the figure is too big and does not correspond to the real state of affairs.
Evil Geniuses line-up
The combat composition of the Peruvians has not yet fully turned on. The group stage is a time of experimentation, and therefore EG will make mistakes - that's a fact.
EG Players
- Pakazs
- Chris Luck
- Wisper
- Matthew
- pandaboo
We have seen that this five can play DotA. We saw it at The International 2022, and also at the Regional League, where we took second place.
So far, we haven't seen anything outstanding in Lima Major 2023, but it's not the time either: we have only 1 match behind us, it will be better in the future. But it is not exactly.
Performance Lima Major 2023
EG made it to the Lima Major from second place at DPC 2023: SA - Upper Division. Above them were beastcoast - another favorite of the tournament.
EG played the regular season with a 6-1 record. The only defeat happened in the 3rd week match against beastcoast.
That game was not easy for bc. The fight lasted 2 maps, but the first was delayed by 42 minutes, and the second by 60.
In the first match, Evil Geniuses played against PSG.LGD. In that match, EG confidently won the first game, and then decided to take Venomancer, which led to the defeat.
Heroes Evil Geniuses
Everything in the pool for EG is pretty standard, according to the canons of patch 7.32. However, there are some idiosyncratic choices.
The most picked character is Rubick. Appeared 11 times and won 9 matches.
Monkey King (8 games, 87% wins), Mars (8 matches, 62% wins), Timbersaw (7 games, 100% wins), Silincer (7 matches, 100% wins) are popular.
History of personal confrontations
This match will be the debut face-to-face confrontation. Previously, the teams had not played official matches before.
Match outcome
The match promises to be hot and I don't see a clear winner here. In the first matches, he does not emerge.
The most logical choice for me would be +1.5 in favor of Evil Geniuses. I'm sure they will improve during the tournament, and picking up a card from the current Spirit is a feasible task.
Result: +1.5 on Evil Geniuses.
Team Spirit. 8th team in the world ranking. At their last tournament of the past year, BetBoom Xmas Show took 2nd place, losing in the final to Gaimin Gladiators with a score of 2:3. At the first DPC in their region, they played 7 matches, of which they managed to win 6. They lost only in the last match of BetBoom 1:2. I can’t say that the opponents didn’t have a chance, but in some important aspects, the spiritualists always turned out to be stronger. BB Universe Ep 1 also proved to be a success for the team. We took 2nd place on it, losing in the final to Tundra Esports 2:3. They confidently start the Major with a 2-0 victory over TSM, but in the next match they can't do anything with Gaimin Gladiators.
Evil Geniuses. The new team has a huge potential. The former roster was completely disbanded and replaced by Pakazs, Matthew and Pandaboo from Thunder Awaken and Chris Luck, Wisper from Beastcoast. They take BTS Pro Series S13 without much difficulty, finishing TSM 3:2 in the final. On DPC, they take 2nd place, losing to 1st Beastcoast, losing to them in the last match 0:2. They start their journey in the Major with a draw against PSG.LGD.
An interesting confrontation. On the one hand, spirits are quite strong, but on the other hand, the team is not weaker, as it were. Draw.
I'm a bettor, I live only by this. I devote all my time to this. There are no more interests.
I have been running my business for quite a long time and have achieved some success in this. Believe me or not - everyone's business. But why not try? Maybe you like this life too!
Prediction: Draw!
