Match Prediction: Vici Gaming - SG e-sports | Dota 2
The Internationa 2021The International 10 Dota celebration continues. The group stage is flying, and in the next match Vici Gaming and SG esports will converge.
The very Vici who seem to be receiving insufficient attention against the backdrop of their Chinese compatriots. And SG esports, similarly rarely visiting all kinds of news and so on.
We are trying to figure out whether South Americans will be able to compete with the Chinese giants. It will be hard, but anything can happen.
Vici Gaming Form
They showed it in two majors of the season, going through fire, water and copper pipes. They played about 90 games over the course of the season, which is an absolutely insane number.

Vici Gaming Heroes
In patch 7.30 VG, Dragon Knight (6 matches, 67% wins), Pangolier (6 matches, 33% wins), Sven (6 matches, 67% wins) are playing.
The most successful heroes are Shadow Fiend (5 matches, 100% wins), Lion (100% wins in 4 matches), KoTL (4 matches, 100% wins).
SG esports form
SG esports are suitable as outsiders for the match. I don't think anyone will argue with that.
If we talk about the season for SG, then you come to a logical conclusion. He was a failure with them.
In the upper division SG did not show anything: they did not play in the majors, they experienced difficulties with compatriots. As a result - closed qualifiers and in some places unexpected passage to TI10.
