Forutsigelse av kamp: Nouns - Infinity Esports | Dota 2

In anticipation of the start of the new DPC season in 2023, we continue to monitor local events in different regions. At the peak of attention is the BTS Pro Series with the 13th season of competition.

After an 8-day group stage where 8 teams determined the names of the 4 that qualified for the playoffs. There they joined 4 teams invited directly.

Getting ready for the main course. Ahead of the playoffs of BTS Pro Series Season 13: Americas.

From December 4 to 10, the teams will play in a double-elimination bracket with bo3 matches up to the grand final, which will be held in the bo5 format. We close the first round of the playoffs with a duel between Infinity and Nouns.

Both clubs are the dark horses of the competition despite their different status within the tournament. Nouns received a direct invitation to the playoffs, infinity mined it.

We figure out which of the teams is more worthy of passing to the second round of the playoffs.

Noun form

Let's start the analysis of the fight by looking at the form of Nouns. They will appear as the favorite in this match.

Chance to win Nouns is estimated by odds around 1.65. You can agree with this, because the team received a direct invitation to the playoffs, which means not for nothing.

There are eminent players in the Nouns roster who are able to actually outplay opponents with skill, but this is not always enough.

Nouns line-up

Nouns is a mix of 4 Zoomers and Soniqs. Top American performers gathered in the roster, as for this level, so for sure:

• Yves
• Gunnar
• Moo
• LESLAO
• Husky

The backbone of the Nouns is former 4 Zoomers players Gunnar, Moo and Husky. However, I would like to single out Leslao from all five, who managed to become a desirable player and one of the strongest performers in the Brazilian region in a short period of time.

Performance Nouns

Prior to the roster change, the Nouns didn't really shine, although they had a decent scoring record for a team of this caliber.

Nouns won BTS Pro Series Season 11: Americas, placed 3rd at DPC NA 2021/2022 Tour 3: Division and finished 3rd at Thunderpick Bitcoin Series.

Later, the team took TOP-2 in the qualifiers for The International in North America, not getting into the main event, but going through to the last chance tournament.

The International 2022: Last Chance Qualifier ended for the team in TOP-9-12. The team lost to Vici Gaming with a score of 0-2, after which they changed the roster.

Heroes Nouns

Nouns' most picked character is Primal Beast. The hero appeared 6 times and won half of his games.

They are followed by Tusk with 6 matches and 33% win rate, Faceless Void with 5 games and 4 wins, Dawnbreaker with 5 matches and 60% win rate, and also Death Prophet with 4 matches and 100% win rate.

Form Infinity

Let's continue the analysis with an overview of the Infinity form. They remain in the role of catching up in this match.

The chance of winning this team from South America is estimated at odds of around 2.15. This match should be one of the most even in the first round of the BTS Pro Series Season 13: Americas playoffs.

There is no reason to doubt the capacity of Infinity. During the group stage, they have already shown that they know how to play DotA.

Composition of Infinity

They play, not least, thanks to the composition. Five promising Peruvians gathered here:

• Parker
• Leostyle-
• Frank
• Genek
• Prada

In essence, Infinity in the current roster is a small rebranding of Infamous. The trinity of Parker, Leostyle- and Frank was the cornerstone of the Infamous roster and now looks good in the Infinity roster.

Performance Infinity

Last season, Infinity made it to the South American First Division by winning the DPC SA 2021/2022 Tour 1: Division II. Then there were TOP 12 at BTS Pro Series Season 10: Americas, 9-16 at Royal Jelly Covenant: LATAM and then TOP 6 DPC SA 2021/2022 Tour 2: Division 1.

Before the failure at DPC SA 2021/2022 Tour 3: Division 1, the team took TOP-6 at BTS Pro Series Season 11: Americas. Speaking of failure, it was the Top 7 at DPC SA 2021/2022 Tour 3: Division 1 that left Infinity out of the South American First Division.

Dali had several attempts to qualify for local tournaments and then a performance in the group stage of BTS Pro Series Season 13: Americas with a formatted roster.

The changes were beneficial, as the club looked very confident in the group stage. The Peruvians finished it with a score of 4-3-0, having played on cards with a score of 11-3.

Heroes of Infinity

The most selectable Infinity characters for a couple are Templar Assassin and Crystal Maiden. Both have 3 matches and 66% of wins.

Next up are Enigma and Juggernaut. Both characters appeared in two matches and won both. Magnus, Batrider, Beastmaster were also picked twice, but managed to win 1 game each.

History of personal confrontations

Previously, the teams in these rosters did not play with each other. The fight within the first round of the playoffs of BTS Pro Series Season 13: Americas will be the debut face-to-face confrontation for the clubs in the updated rosters.

The outcome of the fight

In this match, I completely and completely trust the opinion of the bookmakers. As for me, the coefficients are more than justified, and perhaps even slightly underestimated in relation to Nouns and overestimated in relation to Infinity. The latter proved by deed that they are ready to play and win within the framework of BTS Pro Series Season 13. Nouns, on the other hand, is still a pig in a poke, which is very difficult to bet on.

In this match, I see a +1.5 bet on the Peruvians. I consider it a trial, in order to make sure of their capacity or be disappointed, which is also not excluded.

Outcome: Infinity will take one card, handicap +1.5 on Infinity.
