We continue to surf the DPC. In this review, we will focus on the Nigma Galaxy vs Tundra Esports match.
Before the start of the first cycle, this fight could be safely called the central confrontation of the first division. There are two teams that have not changed their rosters and are hungry for victories.
In fact, it turns out to be disappointing. Tundra Esports is the undisputed favorite that will most likely smash its counterparts with ease.
I really hope to see a fight, but the situation around Nigma suggests that the team is not ready to fight for the championship in the first cycle. I would be glad to be wrong.
Tundra Esports Form
Tundra Esports will play as the clear favorite in this match. Moreover, the gap is extremely large.
There is no point in discussing Tundra. This is the team that will definitely go to the first Major of the season, and the only question is where they will finish in the first cycle.
There are all prerequisites to think that somewhere in the first or second, but so far there are no guarantees for this. We need to look at face-to-face meetings with the “big four” represented by Secret, OG, Liquid and Nigma.
Tundra Esports Roster
- Fata
- skiter
- Nine
- 33
- Sneyking
The line-up was assembled last year and, apparently, everything is fine with them. It is not just that the club extended the contracts with the players until 2024.
Tundra Esports Recent Results
- Beat SG e-sports 2-0

- Defeat Alliance 2-0
In the first match at DPC Tundra, Alliance was skated, which was quite expected. Most interesting of all, Nigma faces the fate of the Alliance.

Nigma Galaxy Shape
Nigma Galaxy will act as the catch-up in this match. Absolutely deserved.
It looks like Nigma Galaxy is not learning anything. At least so far it looks like that.
Miracle will miss the first match against Team Tickles and will miss the second match against Tundra. It is foolish to assume that rmN will be able to fully fulfill the role of Miracle in the team.

We saw how Nigma plays without Miracle in the example of the match against Team Tickles. A sad sight.
Nigma Galaxy results

- Lost to OG with a score of 1-2
- Defeat Spider Pigzs 2-0
- Defeat Team Liquid 2-1
- Lost to OG with a score of 1-2
- Lost to Team Tickles with a score of 0-2
The only official in the last 5 months has turned into a complete nightmare. Team Tickles, who had assembled their roster before the start of DPC 2021/22, had no chance to unwind Nigma playing with a substitution. What can we say about Tundra?
History of personal confrontations
Previously, the teams have already played with each other in such lineups (taking into account the presence of Miracle in the base). So far, the parity between them is 1-1 in meetings.
Exodus
With rmN-, Nigma just can't beat Tundra. Moreover, they will not be able to take the card either.
Outcome: Tundra wins 2-0.
