In this betting thread you will find out how the participants of this match perform during the current year, how they spent their previous professional tournament, as well as how this match will end.
Entity uniforms
This year, the European team Entity has noticeably surrendered its position and perform far from the best. First the team finished in fourth place at DPC WEU 2023 Tour 1: Division I and went to Lima Major 2023, where they reached 5th-6th place, earning $25,000 and 200 DPC points. The team went on to finish in sixth place in Division I for two consecutive rounds, one step away from relegation to Division II. On the ESL Pro Tour Dota 2 2023 Entity's achievements did not shine as well. DreamLeague Season 19 ended with Fishman and the team in 15th-16th place, not even making it past the first group stage, earning $10,000.
Prior to travelling to the Riyadh Masters 2023, Entity players participated in DreamLeague Season 20. As a result of the draw, the European team was placed in Group B. The team demonstrated the weakest game among all participants of the competition. Statistics 0-3-4 did not allow Entity to reach the second group stage. As a result, the last eighth place in Group B and 15-16th place at DreamLeague Season 20 again brought the team $10,000 in prize money.
Statistics of Entity's recent results:
- A 0-2 loss to Team Aster.
- A 1-1 draw with BetBoom Team
- 0-2 loss to Gaimin Gladiators
- 0:2 defeat to OG
- A 1-1 draw with Shopify Rebellion.
TSM uniforms
The American squad is also among the strongest teams in their region. In the DPC 2023 ranking season, TSM won DPC NA 2023 Tour 1: Division I and DPC NA 2023 Tour 2: Division I, and finished in third place at DPC NA 2023 Tour 3: Division I. They also won the DPC NA 2023 Tour 1: Division I Major and the DPC NA 2023 Tour 2: Division I Major. The performance at the first two Major events did not show the competitiveness of TSM compared to other world top teams. 13-14th place at Lima Major 2023 and 17th-18th place at ESL One Berlin Major 2023 is hardly a good result. The team also took part in previous ESL Pro Tour Dota 2 2023 tournaments, namely DreamLeague Season 19. Whitemon and the team managed to make it to the second group stage and finished on the eighth line of the standings, earning $37,500.
And DreamLeague Season 20 was the previous championship in which TSM participated. There the team demonstrated not the best results. The draw of the first group stage determined TSM in Group A. Statistics 0-6-1 did not allow the team to pass to the second group stage. 13-14th place at DreamLeague Season 20 allowed TSM to earn $15,000.
Statistics of TSM's recent results:
- A 0-2 loss to Team Liquid.
- A 1-1 draw with PSG.LGD.
- A 1-1 draw with Evil Geniuses.
- 1:1 draw with Talon Esports
- 1:1 draw with Tundra Esports

Predicted result of the match Entity - TSM
None of the teams stands out with any achievements in the current year, and recently Entity has somewhat lost its position in terms of quality of play. Let's bet on a draw in this match.
Entity is the 28th team in the world ranking. The first round of DPC in their region played well, taking the 4th place in the end. There were of course risks to be out of the safety zone, but the replay put everything in its place and from the company of Tundra, ETG, OG the last were weaker. Lima Major held decent. As a result, they share the 5th-6th place with EG. The second round of the DPC is quite unsuccessful. They finished in 6th place. They could have been relegated to the 2nd division, but in the re-games for the 6th-8th place they coped with Nigma and Monaspa. The 3rd round did not differ from the 2nd round. The team is again on the 6th place, almost falling to the 2nd div.
TSM is the 18th team in the world ranking. They play well in the first 2 DPC rounds, finishing the first and second on the 1st position. But at Lima Major the team does not do well at all. At the end of the tournament they are located on the 13th-14th place. At Dreamleague Seasone 19 showed themselves well enough, reaching the 8th line of the final table. Berlin Major was quite disappointing. They shared the last place with IG. The 3rd DPC round was also sad. They took the 3rd place and do not get to the next major.
The teams do not grab stars from the sky, but among themselves should show a decent fight. I see a safe handicap here.
I'm a prognosticator, that's what I do for a living. I devote all my time to it. I have no other interests.
I have been doing my activity for quite a long time and have achieved some success in it. Whether to believe me or not is up to everyone. But why not give it a try? Maybe you like this kind of life!
