Match Prediction: Team Liquid - Nigma Galaxy | Dota 2

Let's take a break from exciting China and go to the equally exciting Western Europe. The central match of the week is expected there tomorrow.

Nigma Galaxy will play against Team Liquid. KuroKy versus former organization and former teammate Matumbaman.

The confrontation will be interesting not only for its storyline, but also for its importance in terms of the teams' standings. In the European division, it is worth showing confusion, as soon as there are a couple of teams that will punish for sluggishness.

If you look at the match rationally, then it plays a critical role for the Nigma Galaxy. After a terrible start, the Kuro team still has a chance of getting into the TOP-4 and, as a result, a pass to the first major of the season.

Liquid, having finished the first half of the DPC with a score of 5-0, with a victory over Nigma, guarantees itself a place in the top four, and therefore they will certainly not let their sleeves go down.

Let's figure out who will be stronger in this match and will earn very important points at the end of the first season in the DPC.

Team Liquid Form

Team Liquid will play as the nominal favorite in this match. After the first half of the DPC, there are at least a few questions to Liquid.

Having won 5 matches in the European region, they dotted the “y” and showed that they are ready for the first Major of the season. The renewed line-up is working and working stably.

Team Liquid Roster

• MATUMBAMAN
• miCKe
• zai
• Boxi
• iNSaNia

Concerns were about new roles for Boxi and miCKe are coping with the roles of the four and the mid lane with a bang.

Team Liquid Latest matches

• Lost to Team Secret 0-2
• Beat Tundra Esports 2-0
• Defeat Alliance 2-0
• Lost to OG with a score of 1-2
• Defeat Tam Secret 2-1

All the defeats in the list above were received during OGA Dota PIT Season 5, which means they are not of particular value. The main thing is what happens in the DPC.

Team Liquid Heroes

The most successful Team Liquid heroes: Monkey King, Keeper of the Light, Dark Willow, Mars, Slark (1 match and 100% wins).

Nigma Galaxy Shape

Nigma Galaxy will act as the catch-up in this match. I think this is also clear.

Nigma had a bad start to the season, but there were reasons for that. The main headliner of the roster, the great and terrible Miracle, who is now in action, and the team shines with him, was paused.

Nigma Galaxy Roster

• iLTW
• Miracle
• MinD_ContRoL
• Gh
• KuroKy

There is nothing special to say about this five. The core of Miracle, MC, GH and KuroKy have been playing together for 4 years, and iLTW fits in well and adds perkiness to experienced mastodons.

History of personal confrontations

Previously, the teams did not play with each other in these lineups. The duel within the regular DPC season will be the debut face-to-face confrontation between the teams.

Result of the match

In this fight, I expect to see an equal game. I don’t presume to predict the winner, but I myself will believe in one taken card from Nigma for a coefficient of 1.92.

Exodus: handicap +1.5 on Nigma Galaxy.
