Singapore is hosting the first day of the LCQ at The International 2022. We are watching the Group A match.
Polaris Esports and Nouns will meet in a head-to-head confrontation. The duel is obviously not the most interesting in terms of the names on the sign.
Both teams had a mediocre season, but by hook or by crook they ended up here. Before the start of the match. for both, this is an opportunity to move one step closer to the upper bracket of the playoffs, and then look and get through a few rounds.
We figure out who will be stronger in a pair of the main outsiders of the group.
Polaris Esports Uniform
Let's start the analysis of the match with a review of the form of Polaris Esports. The coefficient for the victory of the club from Southeast Asia floats around 2.9.
It is not in vain that bookmakers believe in Polaris, because Polaris made a splash at the qualifications for The International 2022 from Southeast Asia. However, I remind you that this is a pre-match review of the game, which means that the odds may change.
Most likely, he will “jump” due to the fact of already played matches. For Polaris, this meeting will be the second, and they will open the tournament for themselves with a match against NaVi, where they can pick up a card.
Putting aside the factors described above, we can agree that Polaris is really a favorite and looks better on paper than its North American counterparts. At least thanks to playing in the qualifiers for The International 2022.

The performance of Polaris Esports at the qualifiers for The International 2022 from Southeast Asia showed the viability of the players as a whole. No wonder they did not make substitutions after relegation to the second division.
Heroes Polaris Esports
Most used Polaris Esports characters: Marci (8 matches, 75% wins), Undying (7 matches, 71% wins), Primal Beast (7 matches, 57% wins), Lina (5 matches, 100% wins), Pangolier (5 matches, 100% wins).
Noun form
Opposing Polaris will be Nouns. The North American team's chance of winning is estimated at around 4.
Having discarded all the pros and cons, we can and should agree with this. Even despite the nominal equality among the regions, excluding their best representatives.
During the season, Nouns achieved absolutely nothing (as did Polaris, by the way). They played well in the top division of North America (even somehow took the top 3), but that's it.
It is impossible to call the performance in the qualifications from North America outstanding. Exactly as you can not call it a failure, after all, 2nd place is the result.
I almost forgot, this match is the second for Nouns, as well as for their rivals. The opponent in the opening match will be the same NAVI.
Nouns line-up
- costabile
- Gunnar
- Moo
- ZFreek
- Husky
Under one wing gathered the “eternal” taschers of North America. They are known in their region, they are well-known and constantly play somewhere at the junction of TIR-2 and TIR-1, with no chance to somehow get into the TOP. It's sad, but that's how it is.
Heroes Nouns
Most often, Nouns have Faceless Void (4 matches, 100% win rate), Dawnbreaker (4 matches, 100% win rate), Ember Spirit (4 matches, 75% win rate), Death Prophet (3 matches, 100% win rate), Mirana (3 matches, 100% wins).
History of personal confrontations
Previously, the teams in these lineups did not play with each other. This fight will be the debut face-to-face confrontation between the two teams.
The outcome of the fight
On this Last Chance Qualifier, before the start of the matches, I believe in the success of Polaris. If not against teams of the first echelon, then against teams like Nouns for sure.
Outcome: victory for Polaris Esports.
