We continue to surf the open spaces of the top division of China, where today (at the time of writing the forecast) the first matches started. While the fun is just picking up steam, there are already matches worth taking a closer look at.
One of these is PSG.LGD and Team Aster, where a real battle of giants unfolded. The second is just ours.
RNG vs IG - why not a "super" match? Well, if we recall the last Huya Winter Invitational 2021, then of course it will not work to call this two contenders for victory in the first division of China.
Well, that's HDI and HDI, to play there somehow. At DPC, the picture will be different, I'm sure.
Let's figure out who will win this fight and who will eventually earn their first DPC points in the new season.
RNG form
Let's start the analysis of the match with the RNG, which the bookmaker recorded as outsiders. And why would?
Yes, while the RNG team is raw, definitely in need of teamwork and time. But at the same last Huya Winter Invitational 2021, RNG reached the final, where they lost to OB Esports x Neon.
RNG Roster
- God king
- Somnus`M
- Chalice
- FelixCiaoBa
- xNova
We have already seen this five in practice. I don’t know if the 2nd place at the Huya Winter Invitational 2021 can be called a decent result, but it’s better than IG performance at the same tournament.

Invictus Gaming Form
Invictus Gaming will be the favorites in this match. So far, it is not easy to agree with this.
The point is how IG performed at the Huya Winter Invitational 2021. And they showed themselves just disgusting.
Invictus Gaming Roster
Absolutely everyone played poorly at the last tournament. Definitely not the level of TOP-4 of The International 10, but I think everything will change at the DPC.

- Draw with Team Aster 1-1

History of personal confrontations
Previously, the teams played against each other in HDI 2021. Then the victory with a score of 2-1 was celebrated by RNG.
The outcome of the duel
I expect an equal fight from this match. In such hands, I'll bet on total +2.5 on cards.
Outcome: total +2.5.
