Prediction for the match: ASM.GMB and PuckChamp in the first division of ESL One CIS DPC Season 2
It will be very interesting to see how PuckChamp prepare for ASM.GMB drafts, as they have an ArtStyle coach and an analyst.
Obviously, what is worth paying attention to: the IO, which appears in the support of Gambits from Immersion, sometimes it is easy, sometimes it is difficult. Also, Wisp is taken as a carry. Supports: Elder Titan/Grimstroke for SoNNeikO; the obvious Earth Spirit from Immersion. Mid: No[O] ne feels great against lower level teams: Storm Spirit, Gyrocopter and Morphling.
Total: PuckChamp should probably be banned: Storm Spirit/Morphling/IO/Earth Spirit. They themselves play through Monkey King, Ursa, it's worth clinging to Oracle. Puck, Storm Spirit, roughly the same pool of characters are rated in mid, but individual form will decide a lot in this match - that's why ASM.GMB is the favorite.
Immersion from ASM.GMB said in an interview that the team was on tilt. Of course, after such a situation with No[O] ne it's hard not to give up. On the other hand, you have matches with Team Spirit/NAVI/Virtus.pro clearly for participation in the Major and you approach the game with such a spirit. They should have been very motivated, but everything turned out in the opposite direction.
Bookmakers give 1.235 odds on ASM.GMB, 4.16 on PuckChamp. Obviously, the Gambits will win, but the tournament state is such that it will not affect anything, except that it will throw them out of the relegation zone to the second division. Although everything will be decided at the closed qualifiers for The International 10 and it won't matter. ASM.GMB lost to all their main rivals and it would be more logical for them to fall on this tilt now, and not in games with their main competitors for a ticket to the Major.
Prediction: ASM.GMB will outplay PuckChamp with a score of 2: 0 by cards - coefficient 1.825
