Match Prediction: T1 - TNC Predator | Dota 2

Total Over 2.5

In Southeast Asia, a replay! There is nothing surprising in this, but it makes us better.

It would be possible to make out tiebreaks for 3rd place and for life in the division, but there is no desire to climb into these bo1. But the match for the first place and the crown of Southeast Asia looks much more promising.

Moreover, in the second season we have new faces in the TOP. TNC overslept last season and failed Singapore Major T1 will fight for the playoffs of the Major.

We are trying to figure out who is more worthy to represent Southeast Asia in the playoffs of the Kiev Major, and who will need to prove their professional suitability in the group stage.

TNC Predator Form

Let's start with TNC and in random order. In this match, I cannot single out a favorite, although the bookmaker prefers TNC.

I might have agreed with them, but I can't get out of my head a match against Lilgun with their anti-magician and puja. Most likely, that time the underestimation of the opponent played a cruel joke, but in order to be so absent from the match as was the case with TNC, you still have to try.

TNC Latest Results

Win against OB Esports x Neon 2-1
Lost at T1 with a score of 1-2
Defeat BOOM Esports 2-1
Lost to Lilgun 0-2
Defeat Fnatic 2-1

After such a ridiculous and mediocre defeat against Lilgun, TNC managed to somehow rehabilitate themselves, beating Fnatic, but the sediment remains. For me, they do not look like a TOP-1 team.

Form T1

The main pun of the situation is that T1 is also far from the TOP-1 title of the team. In general, somehow unexpectedly quickly there was a crisis in Southeast Asia or what?

Look at the games within the region and you are amazed: everyone loses to everyone, and everyone wins against everyone. That is why we basically have replays for 7 teams.

T1 Latest Results

Lose from BOOM with a score of 1-2
Defeat TNC 2-1
Defeat Execration 2-1
Defeat Fnatic 2-0
Defeat OB Esports x Neon 2-1

And here again, you look - they seem to be winning, but again the mood of the players is the cornerstone. If Kuku plays with the supports, the team wins, if it doesn't play - wait for the defeat.

Personal meeting history

In the last 5 matches between T1 and TNC Predator, the former have won once during this season. TNC won 2 matches and 2 more ended in a draw.

Match outcome

This is like a replay for the first and there should be an incredible hype, but it is not. The general form of teams from Southeast Asia, which are clearly experiencing problems, prevents him from appearing.

It seemed that Europe was the most chaotic region in Season 2, but it turned out that Southeast Asia easily took the title. The only thing I'm almost 100% sure about is 3 maps.

Result: the total is over 2.5.

TNC Predator Will win

Tnc predator: In principle, they are in their rightful place, because in fairness they will have to get to int for reasons of conscience and karma. Last year, having won the first Major, they guaranteed themselves a ticket to the main tournament of the year, but it was canceled, and they had to do it again, and they failed the first season without even getting into the Child Card. Now, they were in the lead and should have made it to the playoffs for sure, but the loss to lilgun, a team that was definitely knocked out of the top division, and even dry, brought them to these replayings. Whether it was a fake match, or simply did not wake up then, it is not known, but in this match they will have to give their best.

T1: Last season they managed to move up to the wild card, but there they did not show anything, but there they played with a forced substitution forev, which showed not a very decent game, as a result, the elimination from the wild card. Now, again with a full roster, they have already climbed at least to the group stage, losing only to boom and omega gaming, also wild outsiders, also 2-0, on the same day as TNC, coincidence?

The outcome of the meeting

At this time, most bookmakers unanimously see TNC Predator as the favorite of the game with an average odds of 1.53 to win. The chances of winning T1 are estimated by the bookmakers with an average odds of 2.4. During the season, the teams met only once, and t1 came out the winner, with a score of 2-1, and due to the new valve rules, they have to play a replay. It seems to me that this meeting will be taken by TNC, they really want to major and international, besides, karma and justice will help them.

Match Prediction: TNC Predator vs. T1 in Second Major Playoffs Replays

T1 recently defeated OB x Neon Esports, while TNC Predator beat Fnatic 2: 1. By the way, TNC could easily lose to fnatik in that fight, on the first map they took Shadow Fiend, had a lot of advantages, but due to the draft, having made a couple of mistakes, they lost everything and lost the map. On the second, they were losing almost all the time, but already there were critical mistakes on the part of Fnatic. On T1, they also did not play cleanly, for more than 40 minutes each card with OB.Neon, this suggests that they are also wrong and a lot. They were very happy with the non-Major ticket. This will be the second Major event for them.

TNC should be a little more motivated, since they didn't make it to the first Major, and the playoffs of the second Major practically guarantee them a place at The International 10.

Also, in my understanding, TNC is slightly stronger than T1, they have better performers. Bookmakers give odds of 2.378 on T1 and 1.59 on TNC. I expect to see three cards here, but TNC should win! Nice 2: 1 ratio for TNC - 3.26
