The next stop is the lower division of China. More specifically, the match between Xtreme Gaming and Neptune Gaming.
In all time competitive Dota (or over the last year, at least), China has been famous for its competitiveness and equal leagues. This season, nothing has changed, as even the second division looks quite to itself.
But this match is an exception. Here everything is a foregone conclusion before the start.
Let's figure out how much Xtreme Gaming will beat Neptune Gaming and why they are a clear contender for the top league.
Xtreme Gaming Form
Xtreme Gaming will be the absolute favorite in this match. They are favorites this season not only of the match, but of the entire league.
Xtreme Gaming is one of the most, if not the most interesting example of a really crazy reshuffle. It is hard to imagine that the players who took the TOP-6 at The International 10, together with one of the main stars of the region, played in the second division. And with Xtreme Gaming it turns out that way.
Xtreme Gaming Roster
The most "non-status" player here is J, who previously played for Team Aster and Sparking Arrow Gaming. Not bad for the most ordinary-looking performer, huh?
The rest of the players are well known. If we are familiar with Srf rather superficially (and he played for RNG, IG and CDEC), then Paparazzi, Pyw and Dy obviously need no introduction.
The latest results of Xtreme Gaming, as well as their peaks, can be ignored in this analysis. Before the creation of the "super squad", the team did not stand out from the TIR-2/3 team pool.
The old Xtreme made frequent appearances at the Moon Studio Tigers level tournaments, and their last result was the elimination from the qualifiers for TI10 from Aster.Aries. The track record is so-so.
Neptune Gaming Form
Neptune Gaming is an outsider for this match. It is pointless to argue with this.
In general, the funniest story happened with Neptune Gaming. Roughly speaking, they shouldn't have been in the second division at all.
After the breakup of Elephant, the elephant slot went to Neptune. Why I don’t know, but already from the first games we can say that Neptune has nothing to do even in the second division of China.

Best of all, their results will say for these five.

It makes no sense to disassemble something here. Neptune Gaming lost to two teams from the open qualifiers, which is what we are talking about.
