We continue to get acquainted with the DPC tour and study the strengths of the participants in the action. To be more specific, now we continue to watch teams from Western Europe.
We have already talked about the long-suffering OG-Liquid match, which is not clear when it will take place, and we also talked about the Secret Tundra series, now it's time to discuss an equally interesting game - Nigma Galaxy vs Gladiators.
The teams started in the second cycle from diametrically opposed positions, but still need points. Nigma needs them to make up for the first loss, and Gladiators to gain a foothold on the top of the table and once again prove that they won last season for a reason.
We are trying to figure out who will be stronger in this confrontation.
Uniform Gladiators
Gladiators will be the nominal favorite in this match. There is nothing to be surprised here.
If 3 months ago, someone would have said that in the European division, “strong mid-range players” like Gladiator would sit at the top, I would have laughed. Now there is no time for jokes.

After the triumph last season, the Gladiators did not change the composition, which looks like a completely logical step. Why change something that works so well.
Gladiators latest match results
- 2-0 victory over OG
- 3-1 victory over Team Liquid
- Lost to Entity with a score of 0-2
- Defeated by HellRaisers with a score of 0-2
- 2-0 victory over Brame
The first series in the new tour ended with a victory for the Gladiators, but a simple walk on the first map failed. In general, a logical result.
Heroes Gladiators
Most Picked Gladiators in 7.31: Tiny (2 matches, 100% win rate), Crystal Maiden (1 match, 100% win rate), Mars (1 match, 100% win rate).
The above-mentioned characters are also the most successful, since so far the “gladiators” have not known defeats on the new patch.
Shape Nigma Galaxy
Nigma Galaxy will act as a nominal outsider in this match. Quite logical, by the way.
Nigma Galaxy still can't find a place for themselves: they are thrown from side to side. A great example of Nigma's “uncertainty” is last season, where after an absolute failure at the start and an outstanding comeback at the end, Nigma absolutely lost replays for the opportunity to play in the regional finals.

The composition does not change for a long time, but the performance of Nigma does not change either. The last surge is the Kyiv major, which everyone has safely forgotten after the events of last season.
Nigma Galaxy Latest Match Results
- 1-0 victory over Tundra Esports
- 2-0 victory over OG
- Lost to Tundra Esports 0-2
- Lost to BOOM 1-2
- Lost to OG 0-2
After the LAN in Dubai, it looked like Nigma would have a good start to the DPC ahead of them. So far, he is tarnished by an unprincipled loss to OG, but there are still chances to improve the opening if you beat the Gladiators.
Heroes of Nigma Galaxy
Most picked Nigma Galaxy heroes in patch 7.31: Invoker (6 matches, 66% win rate), Gyrocopter (5 matches, 40% win rate), Clockwerk (5 matches, 40% win rate).
The most successful heroes of Nigma Galaxy in patch 7.31: Undying (3 matches, 100% win rate), Chen (1 match, 100% win rate), Dark Willow (1 match, 100% win rate).
History of personal confrontations
Previously, the teams played each other during the first season. Then Nigma Galaxy were defeated with a score of 0-2.
Match outcome
In this fight, I believe in Nigma. I'll bet in their favor.
Bottom line: Nigma wins.
