Match Prediction: Nemiga Gaming - HellRaisers | Dota 2
DPC 2022/2023 Winter Tour 1: EEU Division I (Upper)While in China, DPC competitions are buzzing throughout the week, in other regions, teams are just getting ready for the start of the new season. One such region is Eastern Europe.
As part of DPC 2023: EEU Upper Division, 8 teams will play for a prize pool of $205,000 and 690 DPC points. Among other things, the top three most successful teams will advance to Lima Winter Major 2023, which is also important.
After the global reshuffle, the situation with the balance of power in the region has changed. Now it is impossible to name the contenders for the TOP with certainty, and therefore each match can be very exciting.
The confrontation between HellRaisers and Nemiga Gaming will still turn out, I'm sure of it. A sign at the opening match of the league, which is necessary.
Between the teams, a minimal storyline has already formed, expressed by the history of personal meetings after the reshuffle. That's why it's more interesting.
We figure out which team will be stronger and earn the first points in the top DPC division.
Uniform Nemiga Gaming
Let's start the analysis of the match with the analysis of Nemiga Gaming form. They are the favorites in the fight.
The bookmaker evaluates HellRaisers' chance of success with odds around 1.4. It is pointless to dispute this state of affairs.
Nemiga is a potential opening of the season. They have been playing together for a long time, they already have experience of competitive play in the new season, and given the competition that has sagged in the region, they may well climb to high places.
Nemiga Gaming roster
Speaking of faith in Nemiga Gaming, I mean faith in their synergy and teamwork. One of the few, and in fact the only ones, who managed to keep the squad intact during the transfer period.
- Kiritych
- Malr1ne
- Vazya
- hellscream
- so bad
The team was stitched together in May of this year. Since then, she has acquired a coach in the person of j4, who joined the club in August this year.
However, although the stamina of the team is commendable, this does not add to Nemiga's effectiveness. The team is still at the Tier-2 level, if not lower.
Performance of Nemiga Gaming
Since the roster has been holding since May of this year, the results of the team in the context of different events are quite indicative. And they are so-so.
In the 2022 season, Nemiga played as part of the second division of the DPC EEU. In the first round, the team stopped a step away from a critical point, taking 6th place and retaining a slot in the ecosystem, but already in the next round they left the second division.
It was possible to return back almost immediately, already in a new format with an updated roster. Nemiga went through open qualifiers and continued to play within the DPC EEU - Division II with a new fuse. This paid off and after the third round, taking 2nd place, Nemiga earned a place in the first league.
Before the start of the top division of Eastern Europe, Nemiga Gaming took TOP-3 at the BetBoom Xmas Show. The competitors in the tournament were Spirit, Gamin Gladiators and the same HellRaisers.
Heroes of Nemiga
Timbersaw remains Nemiga Gaming's most beloved character. The team chose him 5 times, and the hero won all his matches.
Next come Rubick with 5 matches and 80% win rate, Silincer with 4 appearances and wins in all, Monkey King with 4 matches and 75% win rate, and Pangolier with Magnus who won 2 of 4 maps.
HellRaisers form
Let's continue the review of the debut match with an analysis of HellRaisers' form. They will appear in the status of catching up in this match.
Bookmakers give HellRaisers odds of 2.8. They evaluate HR as a team twice as weak as their counterparts.
I can agree with the opinion of experts. As for me, HR this season is a temporary phenomenon: there is no faith in their roster, from the word at all.
HellRaisers roster
HR had one of the biggest transfer window reshuffles ever. In fact, only 1 player remained in their positions.
- Daxak
- depressed kid
- MieRo`
- Antares
- Solo
Of the young and hot hardline duo here, MieRo` and Antares, but the rest of the trio have already set their teeth on edge at games in competitive DotA. And in the case of HellRaisers, there is no certainty that a lot of experience will be useful.
HellRaisers performance
Before the big changes in the roster, HR won the second division of Eastern Europe and the local Last-Last Chance tournament. This was followed by changes and participation in the BB Xmas Show.
The tournament itself was sluggish for HellRaisers. The updated HR roster took second place in the group, after which, having won the series in the playoffs, they fell to the lower bracket, where Nemiga Gaming was eliminated.
Heroes HellRaisers
HellRaisers has the freshest tune, just like Nemiga Gaming. The most picked heroes by HellRaisers were: Enchantress (4 matches, 75% wins), Tusk (4 matches, 75% wins), Alchemist (3 matches, 100% wins), Crystal Maiden (3 matches, 100% wins), Legion Commander (3 matches, 100% wins).
History of personal confrontations
The teams know each other quite well, as they managed to meet during this season. Two games were played at the BetBoom Xmas Show and both were in favor of Nemiga Gaming: 2-0 in the group stage and 2-0 in the playoffs.
Match outcome
In this fight, I expect a good DotA, but I'm sure that Nemiga Gaming will win. The composition of the team has not changed for a long time, they managed to achieve in-game understanding, and synergy is visible in their actions.
Of course, they are far from the status of the title club and on their way within the framework of DPC 2023: EEU Upper Division they will face many problems, but against the background of the same HR, Nemiga look like a full-fledged team. Victory will be theirs.
Outcome: victory for Nemiga Gaming.
Bookmakers & Statistics
Now, the majority of bookmaker companies believe in HellRaisers victory. Odds on them are equal to 1.889. According to bookmakers data, Nemiga Gaming are the outsider and odds on their victory amounts 2.844.
