How the bookies view it: Team Spirit favorite
Most bookmakers consider Team Spirit the favorites in the match against Yakult Brothers at PGL Wallachia Season 6. This season, the team has earned many victories and is regarded as one of the strongest.
Team Spirit form
Let's begin our Dota 2 betting prediction with an analysis of Team Spirit form. This team has become one of the strongest in recent years and attracts a lot of attention at every tournament. At PGL Wallachia Season 6, Team Spirit is considered one of the main favorites to win.
We’ll traditionally start our analysis with the 2023 season. In the first round of DPC 2023: EEU Division 1, Spirit finished in 2nd place. Then, BB Team prevented the Dragons from taking first, going undefeated with a 7-0 record. After playing in the regional league, Team Spirit went to The Lima Major 2023, where they finished in the Top 8, which was a rather underwhelming result for them.
Later, Spirit played in DPC EEU 2023 Tour 2: Division I and once again secured a Top 2 placement. Heading into The Berlin Major 2023, expectations were high that they would improve on their previous Major result — but things only got worse: they finished in the Top 12.
Despite their lackluster international performances, Spirit consistently make it out of the group stages in major tournaments, and on their home turf, they’re seen as top contenders in every match. This was also the case in DPC 2023 Tour 3, where Team Spirit finished first in the Eastern Europe finals. It took them three attempts to finally claim the Eastern European title.
Team Spirit roster: Yatoro, Larl, Collapse, rue, panto.
Team Spirit also participated in The Bali Major 2023, but the trip ended in disappointment. The team finished in the Top 12, missing out on prize winnings.
The turning point of the season was their run at Riyadh Masters 2023. In the group stage, the Dragons finished with an 8-6 record, securing second place in Group A.
Advancing to the playoffs, Team Spirit finally displayed their high-quality gameplay. In the first match, they defeated Team Aster after a very rough start on two maps. Next came a series against BB Team, which followed a nearly identical pattern: Spirit were behind on all three maps but somehow managed to win 2-1.
In the match for the grand final, they faced the formidable Team Liquid. After losing the first map, they came back strong on the second and crushed Liquid on the third. Spirit demonstrated excellent macro-level gameplay, which played a key role in their victory at the biggest tournament of the year. Team Spirit defeated Team Liquid 3-1 in the grand final.
Ahead of The International 2023, Spirit continued their winning momentum and secured the title at DreamLeague Season 21, where they defeated Shopify Rebellion 3-0 in the grand final.
At The International 2023, the Dragons were simply untouchable. Spirit became the only team to go undefeated in the first stage of the group stage, finishing with an 8-0 record. They dominated the entire tournament and brought home yet another trophy — the Aegis of Immortals.
The 2024 season started a bit less successfully. Spirit finished in the Top 4 at DreamLeague Season 22 and won PGL Wallachia Season 1, but couldn’t place higher than Top 8 at Riyadh Masters 2024 and Top 12 at The International 2024.
The team also competed in DreamLeague Season 24, where they secured a Top 3 finish — a strong result. This was followed by a Top 10 placement at BLAST Slam 1 and Top 4 at ESL One Bangkok 2024.
The 2025 season started with qualifiers in which the team did well. Then the team took 4th place at FISSURE PLAYGROUND 1 and won the DreamLeague Season 25 with a victory. They also played at PGL Wallachia Season 2 and took 4th place. Also worth noting is the 2nd place at ESL One Raleigh 2025 and 3-4 at BLAST Slam III.
Team Spirit also won the Esports World Cup 2025, but their performance at The International 2025 was disappointing. In the Group Stage, the team finished with a 2-3 record, and in the Elimination Stage, they lost to Team Falcons and were eliminated from the tournament, finishing in 9th–13th place.
At BLAST Slam IV, Team Spirit performed slightly below the expected level, finishing in 5th–6th place.
