Match Prediction: Tundra Esports - OG | Dota 2

We are again reviewing what is happening in Singapore. The main stage of the event has started at the main tournament of the year, and this cannot but rejoice.

Behind half of the matches of the first round of the playoffs in the upper bracket, but the fun does not end there.

In the third match of the first round of the playoffs, a European derby awaits us. One of the teams will go to the next round, guaranteeing themselves the TOP-6 of the tournament.

For each of the teams, getting into the TOP-6 will be the best result in their career, which is why the stakes are high. We figure out who will be stronger in this confrontation and will be one step closer to the coveted championship.

Tundra Esports Uniform

Tundra Esports will play as a favorite in this match. The chance of the European team to win is estimated by the odds around 1.75.

For a full-fledged bo3 at this stage of the event, the figure of 1.75 gives an understanding that Tundra is really in favor. In principle, one can agree with this.

The team had a good season. And in all planes: from regional leagues to international events.

In the first round of the DPC Tundra took the TOP-4, after which they repeated their result in the second round of the DPC, securing a trip to the first real major of the season. They became ESL One Stockholm in the capital of Sweden.

The tournament turned out to be a success: Tundra Esports took third place in Stockholm, effectively guaranteeing themselves a pass to The International by DPC points. The team received a full confirmation of the slot at TI22 after winning the third round of the DPC.

At the end of the year, the team took part in the Riyadh Masters 2022, where they finished in the TOP-8 and PGL Arlington Major 2022. At the last one, Tundra took the TOP-16, which did not at all correspond to the status of the strongest team in Western Europe in the draw.

Before The International 2022, it seemed that the team would fail after a very unconvincing end to the season, but the group stage put everything in its place. Tundra are strong.

Once in group B, Tundra had a better chance of success, since the names of the basket were very different from the neighboring one. Tundra took full advantage of their chance.

During the group stage, team 33 did not lose a single series, losing only 4 on the map. We played in a draw with TSM, Thunder, Beastcoast and Aster.

Tundra Esports roster

• skiter
• Nine
• 33
• Saksa
• sneyking

At this tournament we see the peak form of the performers. The same 33, who was predicted to fail due to the lack of summoners in the meta, has returned, Nine is breathing again in the mid lane. In general, they work like a mechanism, which pleases.

Heroes Tundra Esports

Tundra Esports play within their repertoire, forming their own chiropool and not really interested in what is happening around. In the most chosen - Crystal Maiden. The character appeared in 10 matches, winning 9 of them.

Picking Naga Siren (5 matches, 100% win rate), Visage (5 matches, 80% win rate), Visage (5 matches, 80% win rate), Hoodwink (4 matches, 100% win rate), Doom (4 matches, 100% win rate)).

Form OG

OG will play as an outsider in this match. The chance of their success is estimated by a coefficient in the region of 2.

The gap is very small, which is not surprising. If Tundra showed a good start to the season, then OG shone throughout the year.

From the first round of the DPC, it became clear that the newly assembled and young team would do everything not to disgrace the tag. As long as it works.

Taking 4th place in the first round of the DPC, OG outlined the future. Already in the second draw, the team wins the regional league, and does not plan to stop there.

The trip to ESL One Stockholm is crowned with maximum success for OG. The team with the replacement wins the trophy, multiplying their chance of a direct passage to The International 2022.

In the third round, OG again enter the TOP-3 of the strongest teams in Western Europe, which gives them a chance to prove themselves in the second major of the season - PGL Arlington Major 2022.

Again a replacement, again Misha does not arrive. This time the situation is a little worse, but by how much? TOP-4 is a good place, and even better - a direct ticket to The International.

The group stage of The International 2022 was nervous for OG, which is why they are here in the status of an underdog.

OG results at The International 2022

In the group stage of The International 2022, the team had a good debut, failed in the middle and pulled out the endgame. OG finished the group stage with a score of 10-8, losing 2 series to the giants EG and PSG.LGD.

OG roster at The International 2022

• Yuragi
• bzm
• ATF
• Taiga
• Misha

Such a roster was announced in November 2021, but this five has not shown itself at major tournaments yet. Misha will play his first big event of the season as a player.

Heroes OG Esports

In patch 7.32, OG's approach to drafting hasn't changed much from the previous meta. They still play 3 cores giving ATF a lot of farm.

History of personal confrontations

Previously, the teams played each other in the home league, as well as in the Stockholm major. Out of 4 games on DPC, OG won 3 series out of 4 played, and at the championship major they shut out 33 and the company with a clean sheet.

Match outcome

In this fight, I expect a perky dota. We have everything for this: OG, playing in the pace and pressure and Tundra, ignoring the mainstream.

I don’t see any other outcome except for a full-fledged bo3. Despite the difference in performance during the group stage, I expect equality.

OG has Ceb behind him, who knows what to say and how to instill confidence in young players. Tundra has a 2015 champion aui_2000, who is also good at competitive DotA.

It will be interesting. My bet on the total is +2.5.

Result: total +2.5.
