Oh, and it will be interesting, I am very impressed by the Gladiators and they showed a crazy game yesterday, but it will not be easy to fight against Team Liquid. Team Liquid are a good team today, but the former Tickles gave battle to similar teams, and if you watched the DPC season of the European region, you perfectly understand what I'm talking about. Yesterday, these guys did not feel their opponent in the form of Tundra Esports, they surprised absolutely everyone and this is a fact, because Tundra was a hundred percent favorite of the meeting and lost. Gladiators defeated due to their non-standard heroes, they have a wide choice of characters and they boldly use it, yesterday they deliberately forced the opponent to take their favorite heroes and punished them for it. On two maps, we took tempo heroes that can quickly deal a lot of damage, I like this approach and I want to bet on them in this match.
Team Liquid win their meetings due to the class, they are experienced and well-played among themselves, the guys always knew how to act on the map even in the most difficult situations. It's clear that they are the favorites of this meeting, but I think they may not reveal their full potential today. Gladiators carefully prepare for each match and may have watched replays of their opponents' games, I like this attitude to games and I can't help betting on them.
Gladiators will win this match.
