Maç Tahmini: Tundra Esports - Entity | Dota 2

Welcome to EGamersWorld!

Ahead of the Long Song of the second game day at DPC 2023: Division 1 Tour 3, we've prepared a betting tip on the Tundra Esports - Entity match. The game promises to be The International heresy for several reasons.

Firstly, the fate of a slot at The International 2023 is decided and both teams are not guaranteed a direct entry to the main tournament of the year. Tundra Esports are close to doing so, and therefore need to pick up the pace at the expense of the regional league, especially given their "success" on the international stage.

Secondly, Entity have started to surprise with the Long Cogpega League. Fishman and company have already earned a crucial win and a win against Tundra significantly improves their chances of qualifying for the IO Bali Major 2023, and then see the first point.

Trying to work out how the European derby will end and who at the end of it will emerge as the winner of the match. Let's begin.

Tundra Esports uniforms

We begin the analysis of the match with an analysis of the game form Tundra Esports. Reigning champions of The International will appear in this match in the status of the favorite.

Bookmakers note the chance of winning Tundra odds in the region of 1.4. Here comes the overall performance of the teams.

Tundra Esports has twice finished in the top 4 on the DPC. In the first season the team climbed to the third position after the tiebreakers, and in the second round, also via tiebreaker, it was already top-2.

Which is true, Tundra had no luck at international level. The team took part in all the top tournaments of the year, but failed to climb into the medal ranks anywhere.

The Lima Major 2023 ended in the top 12 for Tundra. Next up was DreamLeague with a single showpiece performance and those in the top 4, and the ESL One Berlin Major 2023 again "failed" - top 6.

• Tundra Esports: skiter, Nine, 33, Saksa, Sneyking.

This season is critical for Tundra Esports. I am sure they will be as active as possible in the race for the championship with Long Soppeg, but it is necessary not to lose morale, because in the last series of ELS One Berlin Major 2023 it was obvious that Tundra swam.

The most popular Tundra Esports characters

The most chosen character for Tundra Esports remains Mirana at the 5th position. She has appeared 7 times and has a 71% win rate, with Dragon Knight and Pangolier each picking 5 times without losing a match.

Rili and Nightstalker are considered unique picks by Tundra Esports. The team picks them at the core position, with Riki in the centre and NS in the first position. Both heroes have appeared 2 times each and have a 100% win rate.

Tundra have a very wide character pool: they can play Dragon Knight in the first position or Night Stalker in the same role. At least that's what they've done before, and now it's not really clear how much their playstyle will change, because so far Tundra haven't Long Sogpegovali.

Entity form.

Let's move on to a breakdown of Entity's playing form. In this match they will play as the underdogs, as the bookmakers hint at.

Entity are given odds of around 2.4 to win. Given Entity's recent performance, this is a very good position, as Entity are not exactly star-studded and they have looked confused in their recent games, and the degradation has started since the first round of the DPC.

At DPC 2023 Tour 1 in Western Europe, Entity played in tie-breaks for the top 4. Through replay, they climbed into the top 4, which paved the way to The Lima Major 2023.

The debut major of the season for Entity went well. The team, despite a rather mediocre performance in the season, managed to reach the top 6 of the majors, but trouble started to follow.

The second season of DPC 2023: Tour 2 Entity got off to a dismal start and then ended badly. The team was essentially lucky to remain in the top division, but at the last minute managed to pull themselves together and retain their place in the first division by finishing in the top 6.

In between was DreamLeague Season 19 before DPC 2023: Tour 2 and DPC 2023: Tour 3 wrapped up. At the 1,000,000 Entity title tournament, there was essentially no Entity: Entity did not win a single series and finished in the top 16.

• Entity's lineup: watson, Stormstormer, Tobi, Kataomi, Fishman.

In the new DPC round, Entity are primed to win. This was evident from the first game where Entity shut out Liquid without a chance, although they were with substitutes, but still.

Entity's most popular heroes

Entity took Mirana (5 games, 20% wins), Pangolier (3 games, 33% wins), Rubick (3 games, 33% wins), Bane (2 games, 50% wins).

Dark Seer, Pugna, Storm Spirit and Anti-Mage also appeared in spades. All were picked twice, but none won even once.

Entity, like Tundra Esports, will be eager to win, because they want to go straight to The International 2023, and a conditional top-2 in the third round of the DPC, given the top-6 in Lima, can contribute to this.

Entity - Tundra history

The teams have played each other 5 times in the 2023 season. Entity has won 3 times.

Match outcome

In current realities, Entity and Tundra Esports look like the most equal teams possible. This hints at a full-fledged bo3.

Given how Tundra like to go long, you can even take a risk with a bet in Entity's favour, but still 2-0 like with Liquid won't end it.

Bottom line: +2.5 total.
