Match Prediction: PSG.LGD - RNG | Dota 2
DPC 2021: Season 2 - China Upper DivisionSomehow, quite unexpectedly, the last DPC week came in the most competitive region of competitive Dota. Tomorrow, a series of final series will start, affecting the disposition of forces in the Chinese region.
One of the central matches will be the confrontation between PSG.LGD and RNG. The former have the opportunity to catch a direct hit in the playoffs of the Major, and the latter are on the verge of relegation.
It is not good to miss such confrontations, and therefore I propose to look at the teams a little more substantively. At the same time, we will try to predict the winner of the upcoming meeting.
PSG.LGD Form
I suggest starting the discussion with the PSG.LGD form. Moreover, in this match they are the favorites.
Now PSG.LGD is clearly on the rise and as for me they are the strongest team in the region. Again, this is just my point of view, but just look at the club's performance.
Results of the last 5 matches PSG.LGD
- Defeat MagMa 2-0
- Defeat Elephant 2-0
- Vici 2-1 win
- Beat IG 2-1
- Defeat Elephant 2-1
Of the “big” Chinese four that played in the Major last season, PSG.LGD is my favorite. I like their approach to matches, and individual performance coupled with atypical decisions helps them to win.
But the truth is, this is also the weakness of the team. We remember very well what PSG.LGD did on the first map against Elephant and what happens to the club when the key player - Ame - does not go.
RNG form
However, if we talk about personal performance, then RNGs are doing even more fun here. RNG barks are another story.
The same God-King loves to play up the most unnecessary moments, which we highlighted in the first map against Aster at i-League 2021. Here, of course, we don't have i-League, but sloppy playstyle remains that way everywhere.
How the latest performance of Royal Never Give Up will not go anywhere. They have it, to put it mildly, not impressive.
Royal Never Give Up Latest matches
- Win against MagMa, 2-0
- Lost to Vici 0-2
- Lost to IG with a score of 1-2
- Defeat from Aster with a score of 1-2
- Lost to Vici 0-2
As we can see, RNG still failed to "gain a foothold" in the elite division of China. Matches against top-notch teams create huge barriers for RNGs, and therefore they rarely win.
Personal meeting history
The statistics of face-to-face confrontations are entirely on the side of PSG.LGD. In the last 5 games, RNG has managed to win 2 maps, not to mention the games won.
Match outcome
I think it is already obvious who in this fight should and is likely to take the victory. The game is extremely important for both teams, but the class is different.
PSG.LGD should get a victory, and a clean one, and hope for Aster to lose, then we will have replayings for the first place. RNGs, in turn, will try to do their best, but they will only succeed in taking one card.
Result: victory for PSG.LGD.

Prediction for the match: Royal Never Give Up vs PSG.LGD in the first division of Perfect World DPC Season 2
PSG.LGD in the role of a clear favorite, a victory over Royal Never Give Up practically guarantees them a place in the Major and the group stage, they should show their maximum, roll out their Magnus for NothingToSay, Broodmother for Faith_bian and Terrorblade from Ame.
From Royal Never Give Up, you should be wary of some Enigma, Arc Warden, Naga Siren. Bookmakers give odds of 1.19 on PSG.LGD and 4.52 on Royal Never Give Up. The coolest coefficient and a 2: 0 gift in favor of PSG.LGD is 1.72, here LGD will definitely win and defeat RNG.
