Welcome back to EGamersWorld, where we continue to follow the action in DreamLeague S19.
In the course of our series of analyses, we have put together a betting tip for the Shopify Rebellion - Beastcoast match, which will open day 6 of the clash at the tournament.
In the run-up to the match, we've reviewed the merits of both teams, assessed their tournament standing and recalled their performance in other championships. Having prepared, we are ready to tell you what to expect from the encounter, who will be stronger and who will improve their tournament results.
Let's go.
Shopify Rebellion form
Let's start the parsing of the American match by analyzing the form of Shopify Rebellion, who are predicted to be the favourites in this match. Bookmakers give odds of around 1.7 for Arteezy and company to win.
Such a position Shopify Rebellion have earned by deed. The team has been playing very consistently on the local scene in North America, but are much better on the international stage.
Shopify Rebellion have twice finished in the top 2 of DPC 2023: WEU Upper Division, and have also won the local BTS Pro Series. However, as we said above, more weight is given to successes on the international stage, where so far the only tournament other than DreamLeague S19 was The Lima Major 2023.
In the only Major tournament of the season, Shopify Rebellion looked very buoyant. The team managed to reach the top 4 and was well on the map from making it to the top 3.
SR owes their success to a strong line-up with high synergy. They probably also owe it to their failures at DreamLeague S19.

At The Lima Major 2023, Shopify Rebellion are playing with a replacement, and not just anyone, but mid laner - the central role. Abed didn't make it to DreamLeague due to visa problems and now questions are being raised about his potential participation in The Berlin Major 2023, but that's beside the point.
Mikey (not the one in Liquid) plays beside him, and he plays well. With him, the team got through the first stage of DreamLeague S19 playing in the same group as Gamin Gladiators with a score of 10-4 without losing a single series.
Before Long Sogpeg's match against Beastcoast, the team is suddenly 3-2 and has every chance of qualifying for the play-offs. That's if they keep gaining momentum.
Beastcoast's most popular characters
Shopify Rebellion's most chosen character remains Enchantress (6 matches, 83% win rate). Favorite heroes include Lycan (4 matches, 75% wins), Doom (4 matches, 50% wins), Invoker (4 matches, 50% wins).
Puck and Beastmaster (3 matches each, 100% wins) are among the frequently chosen and successful ones. Undying, Snapfire, Shadow Demon, and Phantom Assassin are also 3 matchups each (3 games, 66% wins).
If you're ready to believe in a continuation of Shopify Rebellion's small win streak - bet on SR's win at odds of 1.7.
Otherwise, check out Beastcoast's form. The form of one of the most chaotic teams in this DreamLeague is explained below.
Beastcoast uniforms
We continue our analysis of the Shopify Rebellion vs Beastcoast match with an analysis of the latter's playing form. In this match, the team will play in the status of the outsider, which is hinted at by odds in the region of 2.
That number doesn't come out of nowhere. The Beastcoast play very confidently in the local league, winning DPC 2023: SA from season to season and also attending internationals andVent as the best team in South America.
Truth be told, a two-time championship in South America does not look like an argument considering the level of bc play on the international stage. The Lima Major 2023 was a memorable failure for the team: The Beastcoast lost control of their home arena and crashed out in the top 12.

Having had a very combative Peruvian roster and not changing it after the failure in Lima, Beastcoast didn't change it, which is quite logical, because there are at least two more attempts at the two Major tournaments ahead. Also, DreamLeageu S19 continues.
In Stage 1, bc finished 3rd in Subgroup B, got replayed and ended up here in Stage 2, where they have a 2-2 statistic before their match against Shopify Rebellion.
Beastcoast's most popular heroes
Tusk is the most popular in the bc character pool at DreamLeague S19. The character has been taken 9 times and has a 66% win rate.
Liked to play with Silincer (7 matches, 42% wins), Leshrac (6 matches, 66% wins), Pangolier, Enchantress, Batrider, Storm Spirit and Ember Spirit appeared in matches 4 times each from which the first 2 won 3 games and the rest 2.
Ready to believe the Beastcoast we saw against OG, then bet on a BC win at odds around 2.

Shopify Rebellion - Beastcoast Match History
The teams have previously played each other once. This was at the 2023 Lima Major and then Shopify Rebellion won 2-0.
Predicted result of Shopify Rebellion vs Beastcoast
In this match there is every chance to see a very lively Dota 2, as both teams look more lively in the last series than in the Long DreamLeague Stage 2. However, team stability is lacking, with Beastcoast being particularly problematic.
I'll put my faith in Shopify Rebellion and Mikey's ability to win on their key characters like Queen of Pain and Batrider.
Bottom line: victory for Shopify Rebellion.
