The team also earned the right to play at Lima Major 2023, the first Major tournament of the year. The 7th-8th place at Lima Major 2023 is hard to call a good result for such a team, but Miposhka and his teammates fulfilled the minimum programme, earning $12,500 and DPC points. Silver in the DPC EEU 2023 Tour 2: Division I allowed Team Spirit to earn $28,000 and ranking points, as well as a trip to Berlin for the Major event.

Predicted result of the match Team Spirit - Heroic
Team Spirit are in a slump, but they are still a stronger opponent than Heroic, despite their recent defeat. Let's bet on Team Spirit to win.
Heroic is the 19th team in the world ranking. Unexpected performance of the guys even for their region. They managed to get through the qualifications with the only slot at ESL One Birmingham and DreamLeague Season 23. Elite League was not too spectacular for the team. They didn't get very high at all, 15th place.
Team Spirit is the 9th team in the world ranking. I will not describe much, we all know and understand who Spirit are. BB Dacha Dubai guys turned out to be pretty good. Played for the 5th place. DreamLeague Season 22 was a little more successful. They reached the 4th place. Elite League was not bright at all. We ended up in 13th place, which is quite sad for this level of the team.
It's hard to predict on Spirit lately, so I'll just take the outsider's odds.
I am a prognosticator, I live only this. I devote all my time to it. No other interests.
I have been doing my activity for quite a long time and 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!
Prediction: +1.5 Heroic!
