While the battles on the DPC do not subside, the playoffs of the legendary Champions League from the Dota world have quietly crept up. And a couple worthy of the tournament will play in the first round of the playoffs.
We'll take a look at NaVi versus Brame. If the latter are regulars at D2CL tournaments, then NaVi can be called newcomers.
“Born to Win” have long been wooed with D2CL, but they just couldn't manage to declare themselves at the tournaments of the series. Finally, with Season 6, the long-awaited integration of NaVi into D2CL has happened.
Let's see what NaVi, who replaced HellRaisers at the tournament, will show against the rather strong Brame.
NaVi form
The bookmaker sees NaVi as the favorite in this match. To agree with this or not is a purely personal question, as they say.
On paper - NaVi is a more status team. The roster includes well-known players who, just a few years ago, showed results at the level of the best teams in the world.

- V-Tune
- Noone
- GeneRaL
- ALOHADANCE

The names are loud, but it is not yet possible to call NaVi a full-fledged team. There are many problems and they need to be addressed.

So far, NaVi looks better than I expected. The performance at OGA Dota PIT Season 5 showed that the team is capable of snapping against the best teams in the world, which is good news.

Brame shape
Catching up in this match will be Brame. Let's admit it like that.
Brame is rather difficult to assess as the team from the second division of Western Europe cannot seem stable. Stability is Brame's main concern.

- Nefrit
- W1sh-
- STOMAHEN1
- SsaSpartan
- SkyLark
Brame have been playing on this roster for a long time and they have success. They hold the leading position in the second season of the DPC and advance to the D2CL playoffs, which is also not so easy to implement.

History of personal confrontations
Previously, the teams in these lineups did not intersect with each other. The D2CL playoff duel will be the debut face-to-face fight.
Match outcome
There are several rules for betting: don't bet against NaVi and don't bet on NaVi. We will do so, and we will take the safest outcome - a handicap of +1.5 on Brame.
Outcome: +1.5 Brame.
