Alliance highly rate Sand King, Beastmaster, Lina, Keeper of the Light, 100% win rate with KotL, Tidehunter, Leshrac, Faceless Void, Morphling, but there is only 1 game played. Good win rate with Sand King, 75% for 4 games, 66.67% for 3 games on Beastmaster. Failed to win with Phoenix, Omniknight, Lycan, Mars, Chen, Medusa, Batrider, Weaver.
T1 likes to play with Lion and Pangolier, in Lyon the win rate is 75% for 4 cards, Pango has 66.67% for 3 cards. We never won with Kunkka, although they picked him three times. Also failed to win with Enchantress, Slark, Templar Assassin. Medusa, Snapfire, Faceless Void, Dark Seer, Riki, Legion Commander have good win rates. Interestingly, they use Nature`s Prophet, Leshrac, Beastmaster. Cannot win with Undying, Wintern Wyvern, Monkey King, Ember Spirit, Windranger, Phantom Lancer, Omniknight, Sand King, Magnus.
I think that T1 is many times stronger than Alliance, the game of the European team has never been impressed. I agree that Alliance's participation in The International 10 is only a merit of the DPC format from Valve this season, none of the players of the current Alliance roster deserves even the top 10 on Inta in terms of their level of play. They don't do much, they are weak as a team. The T1 looks a lot more interesting, they have good peaks and a great individual shape. They lost only to frankly strong teams: Team Spirit, Virtus.pro and Tundra Esports, the “Bears” were almost squeezed out of 1 map.
Bookmakers give odds of 1.72 on T1 and 2.15 on Alliance. In general, I have no doubt that T1 will win, I tend to 2: 1 behind them - the coefficient is 3.4. It is best to watch the drafts, since some teams' strategies may appear only before the playoffs, so the LIVE format is important.
Forecast: T1 will confidently beat Alliance at ESL One Fall 2021 - coefficient 1.732; with a risk of 2: 1 per T1 - coefficient 3.4
