Match Prediction: Shopify Rebellion - Beastcoast | Dota 2

Good to see you at EGamersWorld.

We're still keeping an eye on what's happening in the Bali Major 2023. Next up is a betting tip on the Shopify Rebellion - beastcoast match.

Region-to-region showdowns are almost certainly The International matches. Especially if they are played between neighbouring regions.

Ours is just such a case. Shopify Rebellion and Beastcoast will clash for group stage points. North America versus South America.

The matches at The International rugby as both teams fight for top spots in the last Major e of the season. Without success in the Group Stage of The Bali Major 2023 we can forget about it.

Let's try to figure out what to expect from the match, whether there will be a winner in this game who can improve their performance ahead of the continuation of the group stage.

Shopify Rebellion form

Let's open the parsing of the match with an analysis of Shopify Rebellion's playing form. In this match, they are playing as favourites.

Shopify Rebellion's pre-match lead is indicated by the bookmakers. The odds of the team winning are estimated to be in the region of 2.

There is nothing to be surprised about. Shopify Rebellion is the first team in North America, but more importantly, a very serious player on the international scene.

The team has been twice in the Top 2 of DPC Home League, Ledge and TSM. In the third round of the DPC, Shopify Rebellion finally snagged a well-deserved top-1 in DPC 2023: North America Upper Division.

Naturally, such a result can hardly be called an achievement, as the competition in the North American region is rather sparse. However, in the case of Shopify Rebellion, it's much more about playing on the international stage, where the results are much better.

At The Lima Major 2023, Shopify Rebellion made it to the top 4. Making it into the top three was prevented, unexpectedly, by Talon Esports.

In addition to the Lima Major 2023, the team was at the DreamLeague Season 19 and played even better than the Peruvian major. Cooler, because they played with a substitution (in the Abed performed inexperienced Mikey) and reached the top 3 of the tournament for 1,000,000 dollars.

Then there was The Berlin Major 2023 with a dismal top-12 and then the third round of DPC 2023: NA Division 1. The latter went better, with SR taking the top spot, guaranteeing themselves passage to The Bali Major 2023, and also actually qualifying for The International 2023.

• Shopify Rebellion: Arteezy, Abed, SaberLight, Cr1t, Fly.

At DreamLeague Season 20 SR again played with substitutes, but this time they failed to repeat the success of DL S19 period: Shopify Rebellion failed to pass the first DL group stage and, like Liquid, left the championship early.

Before the Long Sogpeg game against Beastcoast, Shopify Rebellion will face Team Liquid. In that match, believe in the Shopify Rebellion card taken.

Shopify Rebellion's most popular heroes

Shopify Rebellion most often played Crystal Maiden (8 matches, 62% wins), Storm Spirit (7 matches, 57% wins), Doom (7 matches, 57% wins).

Also had Rubick (5 matches, 80% win rate), Terrorblade (4 matches, 75% win rate), Underlord (4 matches, 75% win rate).

Beastcoast Form

Continuing the match review with Beastcoast's form analysis. In this game, the Peruvians will have to play in underdog status.

Bookmakers do not believe in Beastcoast's success. The odds for a bc win in this match are around 5.

To be fair, in the match against Shopify Rebellion, beastcoast judging by the odds has a very concrete chance of winning. I would give a higher figure, because it seems that beastcoast is not going to do well in this match.

The team won their first league season, finishing top 1 with zero in the loss column. Yes, the international scene was a bit unlucky: Lima Major 2023 ended in the top-12 for bc, and it was their colleagues from the region - Evil Geniuses who did not let them into the next DPC cycle.

Later Beastcoast took part in DPC 2023 SA Tour 2 Division 1 where the result was identical: 7-0 in regular season and passage to ESL One Berlin Major 2023. The international scene was not for Beastcoast this season - Berlin ended in the top 14 for them, even worse than The Lima Major 2023.

In between was DreamLeague S19, where bc played so-so, but better than the Major ahs. The team finished in the top 6 there and that's their best showing so far on The International stage.

In the third round of DPC 2023: SA Division 1 beastcoast already finished in the top 2. EG have climbed to the top of the domestic league in full strength.

• The beastcoast: Parker, DarkMago, Sacred, Scofield, Stinger .

It is very interesting to see Parker in the Bali Major 2023. There's a feeling that the high scores won't be achieved and it's more of a downgrade.

The most popular heroes

Beastcoast Tusk and Snapfire are among the most chosen heroes. Both have appeared in the Peruvian club six times with Tusk getting a 66% win rate and Snapfire a 33% win rate.

Also taking Enchantress (5 matches, 60% wins) and Tiny (5 matches, 40% wins). Also in spades are Terrorblade (4 matches, 100% wins), Pangolier (4 matches, 75% wins) and Batrider (4 matches, 50% win rate).

History of head-to-head encounters

Previously the teams have played each other 4 times. Only 1 match ended in a draw and 3 were won by Shopify Rebellion.

Match outcome

In this match, I do not expect a competitive struggle. Shopify Rebellion look cooler throughout the year, and the history of head-to-head encounters suggests an additional advantage for the Americans.

I'll take the Shopify Rebellion win.

Bottom line: Shopify Rebellion wins.
