During a long break before the start of DPC 2021/2022, we continue to explore the vastness of the immense TIR-2/3 stage. We study with the help of the Dota 2 Champions League, or rather at the anniversary year in 2021, the fifth season of the Champions League.
In the next match of the group stage of this event, B8 Esports will play against Creepwave. The reigning champion, by the way.
And B8 Esports, in a new iteration and again from Dendi to mid. Danyl's dedication can only be envied.
We figure out what to expect from the fight and how the teams will please (or annoy) us.
Creepwave shape
Creepwave will play as the nominal favorite in this match. There is no dispute with this.
These are the reigning champions of the last season. That is true in the changed line-up, but this may slightly "shake" faith in the team.
Creepwave roster for Dota 2 Champions League Season 5
- Crystallis
- StormStormer
- Tobi
- Suzuya
- Fishman
All five, with the exception of Suzuya, are perhaps, if not eminent, then well-known to a wide circle of players who have been playing at a similar level for a long time.
Creepwave Recent Results
- Winstrike Team 2-0
- Victory over Winstrike Team 3-1
- Defeat Khan 2-0
- Defeat Hydra 2-0
- Defeat NoMarci 2-1
Although the roster has changed, it looks like ATF and Hansha have replaced the right people, thanks to whom Creepwave have already won 3 matches in a row.
Heroes of the Creepwave
Most played Creepwave heroes in patch 7.30: Snapfire (11 matches, 81% win), Tidehunter (11 matches, 45% win), Sven (11 matches, 36% win).
The most successful heroes of Creepwave in patch 7.30: Chen (4 matches, 100% win), Phantom Assassin (3 matches, 100% win), Faceless Void (3 matches, 100% win).
Form B8 Esports
B8 Esports will act as catch-ups in this match. Again.
Again Dendi starts from scratch. B8 Esports recently became the protagonist in the local DPC slot scandal and so on. In addition, the roster has undergone huge changes and now they play with Danyl:
- V1olent
- Dendi
- Bd3px
- Brz
- Gatciy
Apart from the "midborn" and Gatciy, these names do not mean anything. However, maybe Dendi has a talent for scouting and he dug up future stars.
B8 Esports last games results
- Lose at PuckChamp 1-2
- Winstrike 2-1
- Defeat Khan 2-0
- Lost to Creepwave 0-2
- Lose from V Gaming with a score of 1-2
All these matches were played by the previous roster with watson and company. In the fifth season, B8 Esports have not yet debuted.
B8 Esports Heroes
Most played B8 Esports heroes in patch 7.30: Shadow Demon (23 matches, 60% win), Lina (19 matches, 73% win), Void Spirit (17 matches, 58% win).
The most successful B8 Esports heroes in patch 7.30: Beastmaster (5 matches, 100% win), Bloodseeker (4 matches, 100% win), Gyrocopter (2 matches, 100% win).
History of personal confrontations
The teams have not met in the updated line-ups yet. The D2CL S5 group stage fight will be the debut for these rosters.
Match outcome
Scouting and attracting new players to the professional scene is a commendable undertaking, but somehow it does not play a cruel joke. I do not see how B8 will win this match, even considering that they did not play in the new roster. I'm willing to bet blindly on Creepwave, 2-0.
Outcome: 2-0 for Creepwave.
