Alliance fail their first meeting of the new season at DPC WEU 2021/2022 Tour 3: Division I
ДанилThe debut of the returnedAlliancein the first division was not a success.Tundra Esportsbeat their opponents with a score of 2:0.
On the first map, Tundra Esports took Dragon Knight to the safe lane, as well as a rare guest on the professional scene, Zeus, to the mid lane. Alliance had a pretty good peak by the standards of the current meta. Tundra Esports simply beat the opponent in class, even with a 7:7 frag score, Tundra Esports had an advantage of 7k. gold and entered the upper side of Alliance. Nikobaby on Wraith King had terrible timings for Radiance, on 16 he only had half the amount to buy an artifact. And on 17 minutes, the Alliance team was already without one side. The game was entirely under the control of the Tundra. They take the first card into their piggy bank.
The second map started with a lost draft from Alliance. Their 3 cores were melee heroes, and against them were the mid-laner Keeper of the Light and Winter Wyvern. Alliance tried to perform the ancient Phantom Assassin + Empower tactic, but when there is such a gap in skill between teams, it does not work. This time, Wraith King managed to win, but Tundra Esports already had him. On this map, the throne of Alliance fell at the 31st minute, as a result of 2:0 in favor of Tundra Esports in the series.
Alliance still can't find their game and this has been going on for a very long time. They are trying to make substitutions in the team, but everything is even, the results are unchanged. The analytics studio unanimously says that it is necessary to change the Alliance carry, because all their tactics are tied specifically to Nikobaby, and he, in turn, cannot cope.
