We continue to review the main stage of ESL One Stockholm 2022. Tundra Esports and TSM will fight for the right to reach the grand final.
The pair for the final of the upper bracket is not the most obvious. If it is not surprising to see Tundra Esports at such a stage following the results of the tournament, then the fact that TSM is here raises some doubts.
The North American team during The International 10 proved its viability, but after that it was forced to play exclusively in its region with low competitiveness. Let's see if they can continue their campaign against the “heads” of Western European clubs and, following the Gladiators, beat Tundra as well.
Form Tundra
Tundra Esports will be the favorite for this match. The coefficient for the victory of the European club is 1.35.
The European club has identified itself as one of the main contenders for a triumph in Sweden. In the group stage, Tundra only strengthened its positions and now they look very solid.
Composition of Tundra
- skitter
- Nine
- 33
- Saksa
- sneyking
There is no question to the skill level of the players. The only thing that causes concern is the ability of Tundra to resist the pressure of the public, which, whatever one may say, imposes its effect.
Tundra Esports Latest Match Results

- 2-0 victory over BOOM
- 2-0 victory over Tundra Esports
- 2-1 victory over Team Spirit
- 2-0 victory over Thunder Awaken
To defeat Tundra, you need to turn off the offline of the team, but this is quite difficult to do. 33 has an extensive hero pool and the performance in conjunction with Saksa leaves no doubt.
Heroes Tundra Esports
Tundra Esports Most Picked Heroes: Gyrocopter (8 matches, 87% win rate), Sand King (7 matches, 57% win rate), Monkey King (6 matches, 83% win rate).
The most successful heroes of Tundra Esports: Io (5 matches, 100% wins), Invoker (3 matches, 100% wins), Pangolier (3 matches, 100% wins).
TSM
TSM will play catch-up in this match. The bookmaker evaluates the team from North America with odds of 3.1.
As for me, the figure is quite justified. Yes, TSM is shining at this tournament and the playoffs are proof of this, but they, like Tundra, have a serious test ahead of them in the form of a scene with spectators.
Composition of TSM
- Timado
- Bryle
- SabeRLight-
- MoonMeander
- DuBu
TSM has very impulsive people, which can play a cruel joke in the big arena. Tundra in this regard look more disciplined.
TSM latest match results
- Lost to Thunder Awaken 0-1
- Victory over Team Spirit with a score of 1-0
- 2-0 victory over OG
- 2-0 victory over Gaimin Gladiators
A very funny trend emerges here: the team plays well against teams from Western Europe, which may indicate the “convenience” of Tundra as an opponent for TSM.
Heroes TSM
Most Picked TSM Heroes in 7.31: Bane (3 matches, 100% win rate), Dragon Knight (3 matches, 100% win rate), Mirana (2 matches, 100% win rate).
The most successful TSM heroes in patch 7.31 are: Bane (3 matches, 100% win rate), Dragon Knight (3 matches, 100% win rate), Mirana (2 matches, 100% win rate).
History of personal confrontations
The teams have previously played each other at Gamers Galaxy in Dubai. Then Tundra won the b1.
Match outcome
As good as TSM looks, in my opinion Tundra has already proven everything to secure a place in the grand finals.
Outcome: TSM win.
