Forutsigelse av kamp: Team Secret - Entity | Dota 2
DPC 2022/2023 Winter Tour 1: WEU Division I (Upper)The celebration of high-quality Dota 2 continues in Western Europe. The fifth day of the regular season awaits us, and Team Secret will open it with a match against Entity.
Like almost all games in the top division, this fight will be extremely interesting. Each team needs points.
For Team Secret, the match will be almost decisive. Now the team has 0-3 statistics and the loss in the fourth match practically puts an end to further participation in the top division, which is not quite what you expect after second place at The International.
For Entity, victory in this match means an opportunity to cling to the top four of the Western European region. The team will approach the match with two defeats and one victory, and therefore points are needed if they want to go to Lima for a major.
We are looking into whether Team Secret will finally be able to turn on and try to pick up the first victory of the season or whether it is time for Puppey to prepare for the game in the lower division.
Form Entity
We begin the analysis of the match with the analysis of the game form of Entity. In this match, the team will play as a favorite.
However, the bookmakers are very cautious in predicting the success of Entity. The team's chance of winning is estimated at 1.75.
Even with Team Secret completely dead this season, Entity is a stretch to believe in. You can't take this as a compliment.
Entity Composition
Given the high competition in Western Europe, I would say that Entity is still doing a pretty good job with what is happening. It is not entirely clear whether the transfer of watson to a European club was a good idea, but so far the reshuffle looks clearly better than the almost similar one from Secret.
Entity Players
- watson
- Stormstormer
- Toby
- Kataomi`
- Fishman
Another important factor that brought Entity to where they are before the match with Secret is the team's tournament calendar. The opponents were serious, to be honest, the statistics of 1-2 is still quite good.
Entity Performance
In the first round of the DPC WEU – Division II Entity, they easily took first place, which opened the way for them to the big leagues. The club played two rounds there and retained its place: at DPC WEU 2021/2022 Tour 2: Division 1 Entity took 6th place, and at DPC WEU 2021/2022 Tour 3: Division 1 - 4th.
The performance in the third round opened the way for Entity to PGL Arlington Major 2022. The first major in the club's history ended quite well: Entity finished in the TOP-6, but this was not enough for a direct ticket to Stockholm.
After PGL Arlington Major 2022, there was ESL One Malaysia 2022, where the team also took TOP-6. The closed qualifiers for TI22 in Western Europe followed, where Entity looked head and shoulders above the rest.
The victory in the qualifiers led Entity to The International 2022. At the main championship of the year, the team took TOP-9-12, which is still a very solid result.
In the new season, Entity tried their hand at the BB Xmas Show, where they played against big teams like the same Gladiators and Team Spirit. The team failed there, losing to VP in the second round of the playoff lower bracket and finishing in the TOP-6 at the end of the tournament.
The debut match at DPC 2023 turned out to be hot. The team, in their style, took the first map, using Lina from watson for this, but then they themselves lost the second map and ran into the same ill-fated Lin at the matchpoint.
The second series went much smoother. Entity closed the series without much difficulty against Into The Breach.
In the third match, the team played against Team Liquid. “Liquid” are scary this season and are clearly ready to take the championship of Western Europe: Entity could not oppose Team Liquid and naturally lost with a score of 0-2.
Entity Heroes
The most frequent guest in the team is Batrider: he appeared 7 times and won 6 matches. Followed by Visage (7 games, 71% win rate), Nyx Assassin (6 matches, 100% win rate), Undying (5 matches, 100% win rate), Earthshaker (4 matches, 100% win rate).
As part of DPC 2023, they do not disdain meta characters like Lina for the first position and or Treant Protector. The latter actually appeared in the pick in every game against Gaimin Gladiators.
Team Secret uniform
Let's continue the review with the analysis of the form of Team Secret. The team in this confrontation is in the position of catching up.
The bookmakers continue to have hopes for the Estonian captain and his team. Team Secret's chance of winning is estimated at around 1.9.
Frankly, I do not quite understand such optimism regarding Team Secret. As for me, the team in the current composition has no future.
Team Secret roster
Before the start of the season, it was clear that Nisha's departure would affect Secret's play. But I didn't expect such drastic changes.
- crystallis
- BOOM
- Resolut1on
- Zayac
- Puppey
It's a shame that the TOP-2 team of The International, after the departure of a player, albeit an important one, turns into whipping boys. In three series played, there is nothing to catch on, Secret are very bad.
Team Secret Performance
Secret on the wave of reshuffles last season were on the 31st line of the DPC table. The team took 5th place three times in the regional league and did not play in the major tournaments.
Secret got a break after joining Zayac and Resolut1on. The team had a good Riyadh Master and ESL One Malaysia, after which they took 2nd place in the Western European qualifiers for The International 2022.
At The International 2022, Team Secret revived and it paid off. The team reached the final of the upper bracket of the playoffs, after which they flew down, but not for long.
Having beaten Liquid in the small final with a score of 2-1, the team made it to the grand final. The last match of the last season ended sadly for Secret: 0-3 from Tundra Esports.
The start of the DPC was quite a dramatic event for the Puppey team. The team played against Team Liquid with the Pole Nisha in the roster. As a result of the first series, Secret were declassed and lost with a score of 0-2.
The second series did not have a similar storyline, but had an identical result. Secret were crushed by OG, which was especially noticeable on the second map.
In the third series, nothing has changed. Secret tried to somehow correct the situation, but nothing came of them.
Team Secret Heroes
Their most common spawns were Tusk (7 matches, 85% wins), Witch Doctor (5 matches, 80; wins), Monkey King (5 matches, 60% wins), Pangolier (4 matches, 50% wins), Death Prophet (4 matches, 50% win rate).
History of personal confrontations
Previously, the teams in the updated lineups did not play. Although the teams played last season, the changes in the rosters had a significant impact on the viability of both.
The outcome of the fight
In this match, I expect an approximate repetition of the scenarios of the previous series with the participation of Team Secret. The team this season is not able to impose a competitive game.
I don’t presume to predict 2-0 in favor of Entity, but they will definitely get a victory.
Bottom line: Entity wins.
