Match Prediction: Evil Geniuses - TSM | Dota 2
DPC 2021/2022 Tour 2 (Season 2): NA Division I (Upper) - ESL One Spring 2022DPC 2021/2022 Tour II: North America Upper Division continues. Next in line is the 3rd match of the first round of replays for reaching the major.
Evil Geniuses, TSM and Quincy Crew are competing for two slots in Stockholm. We have already analyzed two matches involving Quincy Crew, and now it remains to deal with the head-to-head match between TSM and EG.
This match is in danger of becoming the central event of the day, and whether it will be, we will find out very soon.
Evil Geniuses form
Evil Geniuses will be the favorite in this match. The bookmaker evaluates their chance of success with odds around 1.7.
Despite the fact that in the regular season EG suffered a crushing defeat in a head-to-head battle with TSM, the chances of the "evil geniuses" increased in this match. It is likely that the reason for this is the format of the meeting.
Evil Geniuses line-up
- Arteezy
- Abed
- nightfall
- Cr1t-
- JerAx
EG have been playing with the same roster for the second season and have already managed to acquire minimal confidence. This is evident in performance.

Form TSM
TSM will play as an outsider in this match. The club's chances of winning are equal to odds of 2.1.
TSM are the creators of the replays. Having won the first map against Quincy Crew, they gave up the series quite toothlessly, thereby spinning the flywheel of tiebreaks.
Composition of TSM
- Timado
- Bryle
- SabeRLight-
- MoonMeander
- DuBu
This TSM roster has more experience of playing together than their counterparts from the "evil geniuses". This can play a key role in the fight.
TSM latest match results

- Lost to Quincy Crew 1-2
The endless "tiki-taka" performed by EG-TSM-Quincy makes it difficult to adequately assess the position of forces. As for me, TSM should be the strongest of all.
Heroes TSM
Most Picked TSM Heroes in 7.31: Bane (3 matches, 100% win rate), Dragon Knight (3 matches, 100% win rate), Mirana (2 matches, 100% win rate).
