We continue to follow what is happening in the Western European region. The last match of the fourth gaming day is next in line, in which Tundra Esports and Into The Breach will meet.
Tundra Esports will come to this fight on the third line of the table. The team played 3 matches and won two of them.
Into The Breach, in turn, are in the middle of the standings. The top division rookies are 1-1 and are tied for 4th position with Entity and OG.
We are looking into whether the absolute outsider has a chance to oppose something to the reigning world champions and win at least a card in the series.
Tundra Esports Uniform
We begin our review of the match with an analysis of the Tundra Esports game form and their position within DPC 2023: WEU Upper Division. In this match, they will perform in the status of an absolute favorite.
Bookmakers definitely believe in the victory of Tundra Esports. For such an outcome, they give a coefficient in the region of 1.08.
In fact, there should not be a fight in this duel. Tundra Esports must sweep away their counterparts, because the theoretical possibility of underestimating the enemy can lead to a deplorable outcome.

The championship team is not always the key to success. Confirmation of this happened in the last round of DPC 2023, and therefore Tundra cannot be relaxed. I'm sure the players are well aware of this.
Tundra Esports performance
The team took the TOP-3 at the DPC WEU 2021/2022 Tour 1: Division 1, after which they entered only the TOP-4 at the regional finals without earning DPC points.
The second round in the regional league did not start much better: Tundra took 4th place at home, which did not bring much DPC points, but gave something much more important - a ticket to ESL One Stockholm. At the first real Major of the year, Tundra Esports took third place.
Inspired by getting into the TOP-3 at ESL One Stockholm, Tundra approached the third round of the DPC with renewed vigor, where, unlike the previous ones, they shone. The first place in the regional league of Western Europe allowed the Saksa team to advance to the second Major of the year.
The team took TOP-16 at the second major tournament, which, after TOP-8 at the commercial Riyadh Master, seriously reduced faith in the club at the upcoming The International.
The International 2022 itself turned out to be phenomenally easy for Tundra Esports. Having given away only a few cards during the event, the team made it to the grand final, where they finished Team Secret with a score of 3-0 without much difficulty.
Before the start of DPC 2022/2022: WEU Upper Division - Winter Tour, the team took a well-deserved vacation.
The rest did not prevent the team from debuting at DPC 2023 with an absolute victory. Tundra dealt with OG with a score of 2-0. All thanks to their peaks and unique performance.
The second series for Tundra turned out to be much more interesting. Nigma Galaxy, despite being clearly behind before the match, managed to take a map from the reigning world champions, which showed Tundra's vulnerability.
After losing the map with Nigma, Tundra Esports played against Team Liquid. “Liquid” turned out to be too confident for Tundra and outplayed the players on two maps.
Heroes Tundra Esports
The most picked meta is Crystal Maiden. The character appeared in 10 matches, winning 9 of them.
Picking Naga Siren (5 matches, 100% win rate), Visage (5 matches, 80% win rate), Visage (5 matches, 80% win rate), Hoodwink (4 matches, 100% win rate), Doom (4 matches, 100% win rate)). They also play mid Tusk (3 games, 100% wins) and Phoenix with Spectr appear (2 games, 100% wins).
The current world champions are the best team that currently exists in competitive Dota 2. This is a fact, but not an axiom.
Form Into The Breach
Let's continue the analysis of the match with the form of Into The Breach. The team will perform in the status of a clear outsider.
Bookmakers absolutely do not believe in the success of Into The Breach, which is not surprising. On the success of the team give 6.6.
However, Into The Breach is not a whipping boy or a team that wormed its way into the top division of Western Europe by accident. The team shows quite a good game, which can be seen from the performance.
Line-up Into The Breach
Last but not least, it is possible to show the game thanks to the combat roster of the team. They have both teamwork and skills, but lack experience.

Now the team is getting the necessary experience. And it is important to note that the first successes are already there.
ITB Performance
Into The Breach can be described as a "working" team. They sweated all last season to get into the first division.
We started last season from 6th place in the DPC WEU 2021/2022 Tour 1: Division II, which almost put an end to the team's performance in the DPC ecosystem. Then there were performances at local events, including the TOP-17 at D2CL Season 7.
In April, DPC WE 2021/2022 Tour 2: Division II took place, where ITB took 5th place, after which they signed the current roster, in almost identical form, with the exception of the fourth position player.
In July, the team played at DPC WEU 2021/2022 Tour 3: Division II. The updated roster immediately flew into the TOP-2, which allowed them to be here at DPC 2023.
Before the start of the rating league, ITB played qualifiers for ESL and The International, as well as a couple of local tournaments (TOP-2 1x Series, TOP-3 Last-Last Chance). Qualifiers for the main championship of the year ended for ITB in fourth place.
In the first game of DPC 2023, they played against Entity. The series ended with a score of 0-2, but ITB struggled on the second map.
In the second game of the season, against Team Secret, Into The Breach didn't just struggle. They took out Nigma Galaxy with a score of 2-0, and they, in turn, took the card from Tundra Esports.
Heroes Into The Breach
Into The Breach's favorite character in patch 7.32 is the meta Crystal Maiden. The character has peaked 26 times and has a win rate of around 61%.
In addition to CM, Tiny (19 matches, 52% wins), Enigma (13 matches, 53% wins), Pangolier (10 games, 60% wins), Pudge (9 matches, 77% wins),
History of personal confrontations
Previously, the teams did not play with each other. This match will be the debut confrontation between the teams.
Match outcome
In this duel, I will take risks. Into The Breach have illusory chances even to win in one map, what can we say about the series, however, the odds are juicy and there is a desire to bet on it.
I justify the bet with a rather strained formula: Nigma won the map against Tundra, and ITB took 2-0 against Nigma.
Result: +1.5 to Into The Breach.
