Match Prediction: PuckChamp - V Gaming | Dota 2
Dota 2 Champions League Season 4Dota 2 Champions League Season 4 will entertain us for a long time. Right before the start of The International.
And this is for the best. We are already accustomed to the majority of the teams performing here, and therefore it may become easier to predict the outcome of fights.
Of course, there are a couple of debutants for whom you need an eye and an eye, but in this particular case, we have the opposite situation. Two potential finalists of the tournament will play.
It sounded loud, but on paper it really looks like that. V Gaming vs PuckChamp.
We figure out which of the teams will improve their standings, and who will have to lose important points.
Form V Gaming
V Gaming is a nominal favorite for the match. No wonder.
The champion of the last season is clearly stronger than all the other clubs. The Kazakhs played well in the second season, played well in the third and seem to be serious about the fourth season. What is right.
For TIR-2/3 teams of level D2CL is the perfect place to not only keep in shape, but also make money during the drought before The International. V Gaming makes full use of the received opportunities.

PuckChamp Form
PuckChamp will act as the catch-up in this match. Fair.
PuckChamp has been showing work all year round, and after failing at the qualifiers for The International 10, they are not discouraged and continue to act as one. The guys are doing well with morale and this cannot but rejoice.
Problems often slip through during the game itself. This is evident in the fresh performance of the packs.

In 2021, the teams played 5 times with each other, the last 3 fights ended in a victory for V-Gaming, and PuckChamp won 2 times. The Kazakh team is now in incredible shape, it also manages to play for the Kazakhstan national team IESF WC 2021, and after the championship at D2CL Season 3, they have already managed to defeat KHAN and Nemiga Gaming in the fourth season of the Dota 2 Champions League. PuckChamp went to Voronezh and played a couple of show matches there.
Bookmakers give odds of 3.025 on PuckChamp and 1.368 on V-Gaming. Most likely, such quotes were influenced by the fact that PC has not yet played a single match with V-Gaming and lost to them in the last 3 matches. It seems to me that the odds are not entirely objective, yes, V-Gaming is strong now, but we do not know what to expect from PuckChamp, perhaps their main mid lane has returned to them. PCs may well cling to 1 card and even win this fight.
TB 2.5 in this match is estimated at 2.07; 1 map from PuckChamp is 1.555 and PuckChamp wins 3.028.
Prediction: PuckChamp will take 1 card from V-Gaming at D2CL Season 4 - coefficient 1.555; with TB risk 2.5 - coefficient 2.07
The matches at this tournament are interesting, yesterday V Gaming decided to give one map to the Khan team, well, there are two teams from the same country, and that was understandable in principle. PuckChamp have already played with V Gaming and lost 2-1 and I think history will repeat itself, the Artstyle coach at Natus Vincere left them and now there will be no such hint in the game as before. V Gaming are now reaching a new level of play and therefore will win today's match without any problems. In their game, I do not observe banal mistakes and I am pleased with how they do everything competently, due to these components you can fight with any team.
