The battle for the EPIC League Division 1 playoff stage, the winner guarantees himself a slot in the upper bracket, and the loser goes to the Play-in Stage.
Despite the difference between won and lost cards, only victory will be important. Statistics with cards allows us to notice that NAVI often won their matches with a score of 2: 1 and there are prerequisites to bet on TB 2.5.
What about drafts?
Team Secret:
- NAVI shouldn't forget about Arc Warden by Nisha and Lone Druid by MATUBMAMAN
- Team Secret swaps offlane and mid if Nisha has an unpleasant lane
- They often take Sven for carry, and Magnus picks under him (3 times) and sometimes IO
- Sometimes MATUMBAMAN can play on a spaced Dragon Knight
- Recently they have been playing through OD in the mid (picked 2 times)
- Top four for YapzOr - Mirana (4 picks) and Rubick (2 picks)
- Top bans against Team Secret: Slardar (4 bans), Omniknight and Vengerful Spirit (3 bans each)
NAVI:
- Strategy IO + Storm Spirit, when Wisp bullets Bottle to the mid lane and helps him quickly fill the net.
- They often pick in the center of Puck, and signature heroes for Iceberg are Doom, Silencer, Storm.
- Top heroes for V-Tune carry: Drow Ranger (4 picks) and Sven (3 picks)
- Fours for Rodjer - Phoenix and Lina (3 peaks) and IO (2 peaks)
- Top bans against NAVI: Chen (10 bans) and Doom (9 bans)
Forecast for the match NAVI vs Team Secret:
NAVI definitely needs something to think about with Sven and Lone Druid from MATUMBAMAN and Arc Warden/OD from Nisha, some of these players will have to give up and play number two. For Team Secret, it will be enough to ban Doom and Chen and everything will be fine in principle. Knowing Puppey's position and his desire to counter, NAVI will be able to squeeze out one card. I think that NAVI should not be played through Puck or Storm Spirit, the level of performance of Team Secret players is much higher and therefore it is necessary to take heroes for a confident victory - Dragon Knight/Death Prophet in the mid.
There will definitely be a fight for IO, do not forget about Magnus on the top five from Puppey. NAVI has a lot of work to do on drafts for this match. The game is very important, Team Secret clearly wants to go to the upper bracket and will not give up.
Prediction: Team Secret will win NAVI 2: 1 at EPIC League Division 1 (3.15 odds)
Team Secret is a good team with competent performers who always know what to do on the map. At this tournament, I do not see from them a huge desire to play Dota, I told you earlier, they are tired of these online tournaments and they want to go to prepare for the DPC season as soon as possible. Today's match in the tournament is not particularly important for them, they can safely lose it and not think about anything. The last games Team Secret played not very confidently and I do not think that anything can change in this match.
Natus Vincere is now on the move and it can be seen with the naked eye. The guys show that they deserve to be in this organization and show a good game, in today's match they basically have a chance of success. The chances may be due to the frivolous attitude of the Secret team, the guys want to skip this tournament for a successful preparation for the DPC season. In this match, I recommend that you bet live and give preference to the Natus Vincere team.
I recommend playing live and giving preference to Natus Vincere.
