Drafts:
OG:
- OG, as usual, play absolutely everything
- They often have Sven (4 times) and Juggernaut (2 times) on carry
- Offlane rate Elder Titan for Ceb
- On a four, Saksa plays Tusk
- n0tail plays on IO (4 picks), Magnus and Ancient Apparation
- topson has been playing on Puck lately, but don't forget his Tiny or Earth Spirit either
- Top bans against OG: Morphling (10 bans) and Sven (6 bans)
Live To Win:
- The pool of heroes in the center is different, often played through Snapfire
- Narrow character pool for carry, dream` can only be seen on Sven or Faceless Void
- Offlane a varied set of heroes, Mars was the most common (2 picks)
- Don't forget about Immersion, his Rubick and Earth Spirit on the four.
- SoNNeikO plays Ancient Apparation, Enchantress and Undying
- Top bans against Live To Win: IO (6 bans), Omniknight and Faceless Void (2 bans each)
Prediction for the match Live To Win and OG:
During the draft stage, there will be a fight around IO, Earth Spirit and Omniknight. Live To Win is definitely worth banning Morphling and Elder Titan and grabbing Earth Spirit, but that way they will give up IO. Ceb will come into a difficult one and will just ruin the easy one for dream` and SoNNeikO. Also, topson will come and win a no-chance line against fn. AfterLife plays very unstable in the hard, and therefore Live To Win will have problems on all three lanes, even despite the drafts. A very narrow pool of heroes, although it allowed winning in the second division, this will not work with OG.
Prediction: OG's crushing victory in the match against Live To Win with a score of 2: 0 by maps (odds 1.52)
Live to Win Переможе
At first glance, this match may seem readable, the OG team is head and shoulders above its current rival, and this is a fact. Sometimes OG surprises me, they take interesting and non-standard characters and pay for it right away. In this match, it seems to me they will not play too seriously, they will test something and they may give up one card, and if they give up one card they may even lose. In general, the bet against the two-time world champions in Dota is somewhat strange, but today I will bet on Live to Win and explain to you why.
The Live to Win team is good and knows how to play Dota very well, they have a fighting and experienced roster, they play well in their last encounters and win their matches without any problems. Of course, they are weaker than today's opponent, but due to motivation and desire, they can fight in principle. They win seven matches in a row, here they may have odds on one card and I advise you to live this meeting, maybe it will turn out to catch the odds on OG.
We bet on this match live, but I will give preference to Live to Win in this meeting.
