Maç Tahmini: Tundra Esports - PSG Quest | Dota 2
The International 2023 - Group StageWelcome back to EGamersWorld.
The International 2023 group stage is underway. We are getting ready for the second and last day of games, where a very interesting clash awaits us in Group D.
Obviously, we are talking about the European derby. Tundra Esports will meet PSG Quest in a bo2 series. Both clubs are aiming for the top 2 of their basket, but getting there is not so easy.
Tundra have a good chance of making the top 2 after this game. Theoretically, they'll need to take 1 card to guarantee a move on from the Top 2, but they need to take that card first.
Let's see how this match ends and whether either team can close the series in their favour.
Let's go.
Tundra Esports uniforms
We start the match analysis by analysing the Tundra Esports uniforms. In this match, the reigning world champions will play as favourites with odds to win at 2.3. This is quite logical, though, as Tundra look very serious on the first match day.
In the first cycle of DPC 2023, Tundra only made it into the top 4 via tiebreaker, finishing in the top 3 at the end of the season. This gave them an opportunity to play at The Lima Major 2023, which they failed, finishing in the Top 12.
Things got better in the second DPC cycle. Tundra had re-matches again and again they did well, except now it was a Top-2 division match. Things also got better on the international stage at ESL One Berlin Major 2023, where the reigning world champions from The International finished in the top 6.
In the third cycle, DPC Tundra returned to the top of the competitive dota. The reigning World Champions of The International finished in the top 1 in their home league.
- Tundra Esports lineup: skiter, Topson, 33, Nine, Sneyking.
Tundra visited DreamLeague Season 20, but they were not very eager to win there. The team didn't make it past the first group stage and finished in the top 9-10.
At Bali Major 2023, Tundra had a forced stand-in. Saksa left the squad due to illness, but it didn't stop Tundra from reaching the top 3 of the tournament.
In Riyadh, Tundra again resorted to Aui for the same reason. With him they were able to pass the group stage and survive in round-robin tiebreaks. As a result, they managed to reach the top-12 of the Riyadh Masters 2023, but were knocked out of the tournament by Gaimin Gladatiators.
Before The International 2023, Tundra visited DreamLeague Season 21. There, the team somehow made it to the top 6, where they were knocked out by OG.
Tundra Esports finished the first day at the top of the standings. Topson and company finished 5-1 on maps: they won the series against TSM and Talon, but gave the map to Keyd Stars.
The most popular Tundra Esports characters
Among the most popular characters in Tundra spades is Techies. The character has been picked 9 times, and his winrate is at 66%.
Next is Bloodseeker, who has been picked 8 times. His win rate is 50%. Batrider (7 matches, 71% win rate), Doom (7 matches, 57% win rate), Timbersaw (6 matches, 66% win rate) were also picked.
PSG Quest uniforms
We continue with a review of PSG Quest's playing form, who will be playing as the number two in this match. The odds for a Quest victory are at around 2.3.
Quest Esports have been one of the big revelations of the season. They started their rise to the top with a top-5 finish at DPC 2023: WEU Upper Division Tour 2. The team fell one map short of reaching the Berlin Major 2023, but not enough.
In the third round of DPC 2023: WEU Tour 3 the team again showed a top game and that time they had enough. It was enough for the top 3 of the tournament, and as a result, they made it to The Bali Major 2023.
- Quest Esports roster: TA2000, No!ob, Tobi, OmaR, kaori.
During the Bali Major 2023 Quest Esports showed from the very beginning of the tournament that they did not come there to rest. The team finished top-1 in their group and then went to play in the top set of play-offs. In the end, Quest's jaunt through The Bali Major 2023 ended with them in 4th place.
Having travelled to the Riyadh Masters 2023 with a replacement in the lineup, Quest Esports did not lose their team scilll. In their Play-In group the team took a confident first place, losing only 1 match out of 5.
The group stage of the Saudi tournament also proved to be no match for Quest. Residents of Western Europe confidently took the top 1 in Group A, thereby guaranteeing themselves passage to the top grid play-offs. But the main stage did not start the way the European club would have liked. In a tense game against Talon TA2000 and Ledge were defeated 1-2.
In the first round of the lower grid, Quest played against PSG.LGD. They did not feel the Chinese - they won 2-0.
And then Quest Esports met with Gaimin Gladiators. The three-time Major champions defeated Quest on class with the score 2-0.
After Riyadh Masters 2023 Quest Esports played at the qualifiers for The International 2023. They managed to finish in the top 2, which allowed them to qualify for the main tournament of the year.
Before Long Sogpeg The International 2023 Quest made their mark at DreamLeague Season 21, where they played as a substitute. They failed to surprise: they finished the tournament in 12th place.
PSG Quest looked very neutral on the first day of play. PSG Quest played 2-2 on maps: a draw with Keyd Stars and a draw with TSM.
Quest Esports' most popular characters
Among the most popular Quest characters are Shadow Demon (14 matches, 71% wins), Snapfire (14 matches, 64% wins), Techies (12 matches, 83% wins).
Also playing with Undying (9 games, 77% wins), Templar Assassin (8 matches, 50% wins).
There is also Silencer (7 games, 100% wins), Medusa (7 games, 100% wins), Doom (7 matches, 85% wins), Enchantress (7 matches, 71% wins).
Head-to-head history
Tundra and Quest have played each other only on DPC. Tundra won that time.
Predicted result of Quest vs Tundra at The International 2023
Looking at the matchup signage alone, you would expect a good matchup from this game. However, Tundra look very serious, so much so that they can shut down PSG Quest 2-0. The easiest bet is +1.5 on Tundra, but I'll take a riskier bet....
Bottom line: Tundra wins.
Tundra Esports is the 10th team in the world ranking. They had a pretty good DPC in their region, taking 3rd place in the first round, 2nd in the second and 1st in the 3rd. But the results deteriorated when the team got to Lima Major. There they managed to take only 9th-12th place. Not the brightest performance of the team. At DreamLeague S19 everything is much better. They were placed on the 4th place. Berlin Major was a little less bright. They managed to take the 5th-6th place. DreamLeague S20 was not very bright for the team. They finished it only on the 9th-10th place. At Bali Major we managed to climb to the 3rd position. Not without some luck, of course, but still.
Quest Esports - the 14th team in the world ranking. In the first round DPC in the 2nd division took the 1st place and secured a place in the 1st division. In the 2nd round of DPC guys almost managed to reach the major, but not enough just a little bit. They took 5th place, giving their place to OG. The team leaves Wuiter and is replaced by ATF. With this lineup in the 3rd round of DPC we get the 3rd place, which is very strong for this region. In addition, recently Qualifiers for the Riyadh Masters 2023 were held, among which the incomplete squad of Secret, Nigma and Dota Enjoyer participated. Quest won at these qualifiers. Breaking into the world of major tournaments with a 4th place finish at Bali Major. A very good result.
Quest have drawn two matches. Tundra have won twice and this will be their last match in the group stage. I'm inclined to believe they'll win this one.
I'm a prognosticator, that's what I do for a living. I devote all my time to it. No other interests.
I have been doing it for a long time and have achieved some success in it. Whether to believe me or not is up to everyone. But why not give it a try? Maybe you like this kind of life too!
Prediction: Tundra wins!
