Team Spirit WINMatch Prediction: Virtus.pro - Team Spirit | Dota 2
The hot battles at The International 10 continue. The degree in the lower grid is heating up, because the TOP-4 is ahead. Virtus.pro and
The Bears are the majority of expectations and now, to show the best result in the history of the club, it is enough to win one bo3. The same can be said for Team Spirit, surprising no less.
Well, let's figure out who will get into the TOP-4 and bother to play against the winner of the Invictus Gaming/T1 pair.
Virtus.pro kits
At this stage of The International 10, I don't want to celebrate favorites and those who are catching up, although they certainly exist. Let's start with the bears.
Virtus.pro, like the CIS in general, surpasses the weight of expectations at this tournament. And that's great.
Another battle-worthy region in competitive Dota is always good news. After this match, the region will become even stronger.
Virtus.pro at this tournament is playing as expected and even better. The strong group stage grew into a very solid start to the playoffs.
Yes, in the semifinals of the upper bracket VP faced PSG.LGD, where they lost 0-2 without ideas. It's stupid to blame them for this, because PSG.LGD is still an unattainable rival for everyone in general.
Virtus.pro latest matches results
- Beat Thunder Predator 2-0
- Defeat Evil Geniuses 2-0
- Defeat Team Aster 2-0
- Defeat Vici Gaming 2-1
- Lost to PSG.LGD with a score of 0-2
Here we have a team of a level lower than PSG.LGD, and therefore there are enough prerequisites for the victory of the "bears".
Virtus.pro heroes
At The International 10, the team plays as follows: Dawnbreaker (4 matches, 50% win), Bounty Hunter (3 matches, 33% win). Storm Spirit (3 matches, 33% win).
Most successful heroes: Puck (3 matches, 100% win), Earth Spirit (2 matches, 100% win).
Team Spirit uniform
Team Spirit will act as the catch-up in this match. Again, the bears have a very small advantage.
CIS derby for reaching the final of losers. Who could possibly imagine such a thing? I'm not sure.
Team Spirit created a sensation in the morning by sending home the reigning two-time world champions. I think morally it will boost Spirit a lot (which we saw on the second map against OG, when TORONTOTOKYO took liberties in the chat).
Well, the main thing is that instant karma does not work and he has got quite a few easy skating rinks at this tournament.
Team Spirit latest matches
- Beat Beastcoast 2-0
- Beat SG e-sports 2-0
- Lost to Invictus Gaming with a score of 1-2
- Defeat Fnatic 2-0
- Defeat OG 2-0
Spirit has a principled opponent ahead. The best CIS team will determine the outcome of this match.
Results of personal confrontations
During this season, the teams played three times. Spirit never managed to outplay Virtus.pro and only managed to squeeze out on the map twice.
Exodus
I do not know what to expect from this confrontation, and therefore I will wait for a fight on three maps. But, only because of the history of head-to-head meetings, Virtus.pro has more chances.
Result: total +2.5.

Virtus.pro - Team Spirit: forecast for the CIS derby in the lower bracket of the playoffs of The International 10. In fact, this is a million dollar match, as the winner makes it to the top 4. Team Spirit won today quite sensationally against OG, and Virtus.pro yesterday lost to PSG.LGD with a score of 0: 2.

You should definitely be wary of Team Spirit: Mars, Magnus, Wintern Wyvern, Void Spirit, against Virtus.pro, Dawnbreaker, Silencer, Underlord would have banned. Virtus.pro's main weakness is DM, their offlaner, if you strangle him, is an easy game for Team Spirit. Purely in terms of heroes and drafts, Team Spirit now looks a little better than Virtus.pro.
In 2021, Virtus.pro and Team Spirit played against each other 3 times, VP won three times. In general, in the entire history of rivalry between these CIS teams, Virtus.pro has never lost to Team Spirit in the last 29 games, but today everything should change.
Bookmakers give odds of 2.268 on Team Spirit, on Virtus.pro - 1.696. Good quotes at 2: 0 from Team Spirit - coefficient 4.5, with minimal risk you can believe in TB 2.5 for 1.81. I am inclined more towards the victory of the Spirits, if they take the first map, they will definitely win the match.
The coolest fight for a million dollars, the pressure will be crazy and in such a situation, Team Spirit should win, I can't believe in VP.
Prediction: Team Spirit will outplay Virtus.pro in the lower bracket of The International 10 playoffs - coefficient 2.268; with TB risk 2.5 - coefficient 1.81
Spirit showed a great game against OG, but they won due to the arrogance of the European team. The drafts that OG showed in the match with the CIS team were, as always, non-standard and this allowed the Spirit team to win. Virtus.pro will not joke in this match and will most likely win 2-0, they will act more confidently today and show their full potential. I am sure they have not yet used all the strategies and heroes, I have no questions about the team and individual execution, and therefore I see no reason not to put them on in this match.
