Forecast for the match ASM.GMB vs Team Spirit in the second season of the first division ESL One CIS DPC (CIS) 2021
ASM.GMB, despite the new patch, continue to rate IO on the carry, when this character appears, Immersion plays Tusk in the easy one, and SoNNeikO goes to the hard one and plays the role of a kind of four. Pugna and Gyrocopter started to rate mid.
With regard to Team Spirit, they try to play as their heroes and perform from their characters. By the way, Yatoro (carry Spiritov) in an interview after the match with NAVI said that they absolutely did not know what Natus Vincere was playing, they tried to play their own. By the way, Yatoro noted that in the second map with NAVI, after the laning stage, they understood that they would win.
Team Spirit felt much more confident than ASM.GMB. A lot depends on the factor of this IO, whether the Spirits will give up this character and how the 7.29b patch will affect. There are a lot of factors to consider and they are not very predictable. Subjectively, ASM.GMB looks a little weaker than Team Spirit.
As expected, the bookmakers give equal odds for both teams, the odds for ASM.GMB are 1.935, for Team Spirit - 1.865. Everything will be decided at the draft stage, the fight for Beastmaster and IO is important. I advise you to bet on Team Spirit to win, but it is better to bet in LIVE mode, after the draft stage, and also take into account the IO factor.
Prediction: Team Spirit will hardly beat ASM.GMB at ESL One CIS DPC S2 - coefficient 1.865
I recommend to live this match, two equal opponents that I like and it's hard for me to give preference to someone immediately before the start of this match. Team Spirit showed themselves gorgeous in the match against Navi, they were able to outplay them on the off lane where Ramses was standing and due to some more successful actions they won the game without any problems. There are absolutely no questions about the execution of Team Spirit, they play almost without mistakes, they take cool heroes who can fight at the early stage of the game, retreat in time after the push and competently enter Roshan.
Monaco Gambit played cool in the match with VP and could even win that meeting, but they did not have enough strength and concentration on the third map. It is immediately clear that this team did not just go to the Major in Singapore, the guys deservedly ended up there and show a high-level game, all five players know how to play and act with each other to achieve their goals. In this match they will most likely win, but if I were you, I would evaluate the teams' drafts and then make a bet.
Monaco Gambit will win this match.
Gambit: I honestly don't understand what the mood is now in the team after all this hype with noone, besides, they lost the first game against VP, even though they squeezed the map. To be honest, after all these scandals in the CIS, Gambit is the least likely to be believed.
Team Spirit: Glad and grateful to these guys, it's nice to watch them, it's nice to see how to improvise, and a special thank you to them for putting NaVi in their place by bringing them 2-0 forward with their feet. For me, it is they who are now contenders for the first two places in the league.
The outcome of the meeting
As mentioned above, this is a fundamentally important match for the dragons, because due to an unfortunate coincidence of circumstances, they did not go to the Major, and instead of them went the failed gambit.
At the moment, according to the forecasts of the leading bookmakers, Team Spirit is a small favorite of the match with an average odds of 1.95. Accordingly, the bookmakers see As Monaco Gambit as an outsider of the match with a winning odds of about 1.84. I will bet on Team Spirit out of principle, justice must be restored.
Team Spirit wins.
