Match Prediction: Team Falcons - Yellow Submarine | Dota 2
Pinnacle - 25 Year Anniversary ShowWelcome to EGamersWorld.
Competitive Dota 2 continues in the form of the Pinnacle: 25 Year Anniversary Show. The commercial tournament, which acts as a sort of preview to the main season's Long Run in December, is gaining momentum. Although we are still in the group stage, the importance of the matches is growing every day as the battle for the play-offs continues.
Falcons and Yellow Submarine are also participating in it. And while for the former it's just a matter of time before they reach the main stage, for YS it's not so clear-cut - they need to gain points.
We are trying to find out how this clash will end and who will earn the victory at the end of the match. Let's go.
Falcons shape
Let's open our review of the Falcons vs Yellow Submarine match with a look at the form of the former. In this match, the Saudi club is playing as the clear front-runner with odds to win at around 1.1.
If anyone is not aware, Falcons is a Saudi club that is preparing to conquer esports as a whole. The process is still underway, but even this Dota lineup is already hinting at plans to stay here for a long time.
In general, the tag is not new, but they were not able to achieve special fame. All they did was to play at the local Saudi eLeague. They played there in 2020, with TOP-6 and in 2021, with TOP-3 and TOP-1 respectively.
After a pause of a year, decided to return to the professional scene after Valve cancelled the DPC system. Breaking in with a leg.
- Falcons roster: skiter, Malr1ne, ATF, Cr1t, Sneyking.
The roster was assembled according to the "golden roster" principle. We managed to get two players from Tundra Esports, and at the same time champions of The International 2023 Skiter and Sneyking, Cr1t, who previously played for Shopify Rebellion and previously for EG, ATF, who showed a good performance last season in PSG Quest and before that in Nigma with OG, and closed everything with a promising mid laner Marl1ne.
In the MENA region, where Falcons are based, this squad has no competition even at the skilla level. As it happens, the Falcons have already clinched their ticket to Kuala Lumpur 2023.
First, they passed the open qualification without any difficulty, and then, again without much trouble, slammed the closed part of the qualifiers. In the final, by the way, they beat PSG Quest by a score of 3-1. What one and two are doing in the MENA region is not entirely clear, but come on.
At Pinnacle: 25 Year Anniversary Show Falcons look very confident so far, which is to be expected. They have already earned their place in the play-offs by coming out of Group B in first place without losing a single game in three matches.
Falcons' most popular heroes
Io (6 matches, 66% wins), Death Prophet (5 matches, 60% wins), Chen (5 matches, 60% wins), Dawnbreaker (4 matches, 75% wins), Earth Spirit (4 matches, 75% wins) appeared most often in spades.
Yellow Submarine Uniforms
We continue our analysis of the Yellow Submarine vs Falcons match with a review of the YS uniforms. In this match, the team is playing the second number, and the gap is more than obvious.
Yellow Submarine is the most typical representative of the TIR-2, TIR-3 scene. They constantly flicker somewhere, but frankly speaking, they are of little use.
In general, the history of this tag starts a long time ago, back in 2015, but we need more recent data. For example, Yellow Submarine shone in 2022, appearing at the Dota 2 Champions League in January, or rather at the closed qualifiers for the D2CL, where they finished in the top 8. That was their first and last appearance
Back on the radar of the professional scene in 2023, not surprisingly, thanks to Valve. With their decision to abandon the DPC system, the Dota 2 developers have given the green light to teams like Yellow Submarine, who will shine at local tournaments more and more often.
- Yellow Submarine lineup: Satanic, erase, Absolutemassive, rue, aik.
In 2023, Yellow Submarine played at Pinnacle Cup: Malta Vibes #4. Back then, they failed to make it past the group stage, coming away with a 1-4 win. The Pinnacle Cup finished in the top 14.
There was also an attempt to qualify for Kuala Lumpur 2023. The attempt is frankly unsuccessful, because further TOP-4 in the open qualification of Eastern Europe could not get through.
Now they play on Pinnacle: 25 Year Anniversary Show. So far their game can be characterised as neutral: they have 1 win and 1 loss.
Yellow Submarine's most popular heroes
The most popular hero of Yellow Submarine is Storm Spirit. Paparazzi played him 5 times, but won only 2 matches.
We also took Alchemist (4 matches, 75% wins), Phoenix (4 matches, 50% wins), Keeper of the Light (4 matches, 25% wins), Rubick (4 matches, 25% wins).
There was also Pangolier, Underlord, Pugna, Dragon Knight. All heroes appeared 3 times and won 2 matches each.
Predicted result of Falcons - Yellow Submarine matchup
I don't see the point in dwelling on the outcome of this match. As for me, everything is more than obvious - Yellow Submarine has no chance to win. Moreover, I am confident in a clean 2-0 win for the Falcons.
Bottom line: 2-0 win for the Falcons.
Team Falcons is a new MENA region team with an extremely promising roster. The Arab organisation has taken Skiter, ATF, Malrine, Cr1t and Sneyknig under its wing. Expectations are very high. So far they have had no difficulties in qualifying for ESL One Kuala Lumpur, passing both open and closed qualifications without defeat. Only Quest Esports managed to compete with them in the decisive match for a slot, but they still could not stop them.
Yellow Submarine is the 173rd team in the world ranking. An average t3 team with everyone's favourite Satanic. They also tried to qualify for ESL One Kuala Lumpur, but in the deciding match they lost to Klim Sani4.
I think no one at this tournament will be able to compete well with Falcons. The boys have a very strong squad. I think it will end with a very easy victory.
I'm a prognosticator, that's what I do for a living. I devote all my time to it. No other interests.
I have been doing it for a long time and I have achieved some success in it. Whether to believe me or not is up to everyone. But why not give it a try? Maybe you like this kind of life too!
