Match Prediction: Team Secret - PSG Quest | Dota 2
DPC 2023 Tour 3: WEU Division I (Upper)Welcome to EGamersWorld!
We close out the first game day of the final week of DPC 2023: WEU Division 1 with a betting contest between Team Secret and Quest Esports. Nothing less than a chance to stay in the top division is at stake and we don't want to say goodbye to it.
Secret is in a critical situation. Team Puppey, after the passage in the first division, looks bleak: now the Secret in the last line in the standings and defeat in this match, it seems to put an end to the further stay of Secret in the first division.
Quest Esports is in a much better situation. The team is in the middle of the standings and is feeling good so far, and a win here would greatly increase the chances of further success and possibly allow Quest to advance to the top division.
Let's see who will be stronger in this match and earn an important win, and who will have to accept defeat.
Here we go.
Quest Esports form
We open up the Quest vs Secret match-up with a look at the form of the former. It is Quest Esports who will play here as favourites.
The bookmakers confirm the pre-match situation. The odds for the win are at 1.6.
Who would have thought that a team relegated to the first division from the bottom league would now be favourites against a top club. That's the reality now, with minor adjustments.
Secret are long gone, but that doesn't downplay the level of play of Quest Esports. Quest have earned their status as a serious team over the current year.
They won Western Europe's second division at the start of the year - no easy feat, it should be noted. But it's much harder to stay in the first division, and that's something Quest handled with flying colours.
Last season they really put everybody and everything to shame in the first division. They almost made it to the Major but at the crucial moment the Ooredoo Thunders fumbled, lost to OG in tiebreaks and finished in the Top 5.
- Quest Esports: TA2000, No! ob, ATF, OmaR, kaori.
The team is now in 4th position with a score of 2-3. Quest Esports beat OG and Entity and lost to Tundra, Gaimin Gladiators and, surprise, D1 Hustlers.
Quest Esports' most popular heroes
Clockwerk (3 matches, 100% wins), Pangolier (2 matches, 100% wins), Silencer (2 matches, 50% wins), Death Prophet (2 matches, 0 wins), Rubick (2 matches, 0% wins). Not forgetting the signature Morphling. '
Quest Esports could have had a much nicer situation, but managed to lose at D1 Hustlers. Basically, that's all of them - no stability.
Team Secret form
We continue the parsing of the game with an analysis of Team Secret's playing form. In this match, they will have to play in catch-up status.
The odds on Team Secret's victory are estimated at around 2.2. This state of affairs is quite understandable, if you look at today's Secret.
A huge degradation is on the face of it. From The International final to a place in Western Europe's second division, it only took Secret a season.
After qualifying for The International 2022, Secret have changed their squad on purpose, but the performance has been critically affected. So critically, in fact, that Secret completely failed in their first DPC season, relegated to Division Two.
In the second DPC cycle, Secret played in the second division. There Team Puppey won the league, which was expected, but still.
- Team Secret line-up: Crystallis, Armel, BOOM, yamich, Puppey.
The return to League One was supposed to be a triumph, but it turned out to be a flop. Secret are terrible and there's no hiding it.
The team is in last place in the standings and the flashbacks from the first cycle ѕtuppey are increasing. It seems the result will repeat itself if Team Secret continue to play in the same manner as before.
The only win came against D1 Hustlers, who in turn beat Quest Esports. It's funny how that works, but I don't think there's any deeper meaning to it.
The most popular heroes of Team Secret
Secret has Mirana, Tusk and Primal Beast among the most chosen heroes. All have 6 matches and 83% of wins.
In addition Monkey King and Ember Spirit appeared in spades (5 games and 100% wins each). Death Prophet also played 5 matches, however she won 4 matches.
Also took Jakiro (3 matches, 100% wins), Enchantress (3 matches, 100% wins). Abaddon (2 matches, 66% wins), Broodmother (2 matches, 100% wins).
It's unclear why Secret should win. Apparently, only a miracle.
History of head-to-head encounters
The teams have not met each other before. This match is the debut for the two teams.
Match outcome
A win for Quest Esports would be the logical outcome of this encounter. However, after their last game against the D1 Hustlers, I'm somehow afraid ѕtuplet for Quest.
They'll probably get one card from Puppey and company, but that's as far as they'll go.
Bottom line: +1.5 on Team Secret.
