Welcome to EGamersWorld, where we are still covering DreamLeague Season 19.
We've prepared a betting tip for the OG - Tundra Espots match, which will brighten up Sunday evening. At least we think so, because European derbies of this quality are often a joy to watch.
Before the game, we take a look at where the teams are in the DreamLeague Season 19, the first round of the DPC, which didn't go well for the two teams, and how they improved in the second round of the professional season.
Here's a look at what to expect, and which team will pick up the important win in the end.
Tundra Esports uniforms
We begin with an analysis of the form of Tundra Esports, who are projected to be the favorites in this matchup. Favorites believe in the success of Tundra, estimating the chance of their victory by odds in the region of 1.4.
Such a figure indicates a solid advantage of the world champions, which is supported by the performance of Tundra Esports. There is no point in arguing with the facts.
For starters, we should not forget that Tundra Esports is the reigning World Champion of The International 2022. Tundra squad did not change and want to win in Dota, which is already an argument, but at DreamLeague had to resort to the services of Aramis, who replaces the burnt out Saksa.
- Tundra Esports: skiter, Nine, 33, Aramis, Sneyking.
Next, let's not forget about the success of Tundra Esports. The 2023 season cannot be called a benchmark for Tundra, but their performance is not a failure either.
At the beginning of the year, Tundra Esports finished in the top 3 in the home league. What overshadows this performance is the fact of getting into the tiebreaker round-robin, which Tundra still made it through.
In the Lima Major 2023, pustules began to form and the team reached the play-offs after a very difficult group stage, but they did not remain there long. The team crashed out in the first round of play-offs without earning DPC points.
They managed to improve their performance in the second DPC round, where in the middle of the draw Tundra remembered their aggressive play and began to take on heroes like Night Stalker, Dark Seer, DK Position 1, and so on. Such an approach made it possible to sneak into the Top 2.
At DreamLeague Season 19, Tundra finished 2nd in the first stage and started the second stage healthily. Tundra easily shut down TSM and showed a very good game against Liquid.
Tundra Esports' most popular heroes
At DreamLeague S19, Tundra played most often with Enchantress. The heroes appeared in spades 9 times and had a 66% win rate.
Dragon Knight and Beastmaster were played 8 times with the former having a 75% win rate and Beastmaster having a 62% win rate.
There was also Mirana (7 games, 85% wins), Snapfire (6 games, 66% wins). In addition, not forgetting Doom, played 5 times with a win rate of 80%.
If you are ready to give the advantage to Tundra Esports - bet on Tundra victory with odds of 1.45.
If you are not ready to bet on Tundra, check out OG's form of play (a win-win option). We tell you about it below.
OG Form
We continue our breakdown of the OG - Tundra Esports match with a look at the playing form of OG, who will be facing Tundra in underdog status. This is hinted at by the odds from the bookies, which are at 2.6, but they are not the only ones.
First and foremost, OG are weaker in terms of play, as indicated by the team's performance. OG have been struggling since the start of DPC 2023, which culminated in missing the first Major tournament.
On DPC 2023 Tour I in Western Europe, OG finished in the top 5 and missed The Lima Major 2023. This led to a change in the line-up, although it became a local one.
- OG line-up: Yuragi, bzm, DM, Taiga, Chu.
Chu, with whom OG won ESL One Malaysia 2022, was substituted for Misha. The change was helpful, although not immediately, but the OG recaptured their form, making it to The Berlin Major 2023 and showing great play through the DreamLeague.
In the first round of the tournament, the OG once again played replay matches, but they were better than Team Spirit, which earned them passage here.
In the second stage of the championship, OG closed out SR without any difficulty, who in turn defeated Gaimin Gladiators.
OG heroes at DreamLeague S19
Rubick was the most frequent guest in the OG picks at this tournament. The snapper has appeared in the OG arsenal 7 times and has a 57% win rate.
Disruptor, Slark and Techies were used quite often. The heroes were taken 5 times each, but with a decreasing win rate: 80% for Disruptor, 60% for Slark and 40% for Techies.
Also in the pool are Monkey King (4 matches, 75% wins), Dark Willow and Doom (4 matches, 50% wins), and Zeus (4 matches, 25% wins).
Ready to believe in the increased level of OG and choose them as the winner of the match - bet on OG to win at odds in the region of 2.6.
However, before betting, take a look at the history of head-to-head encounters and our conclusion regarding the game. This should help you make a successful choice.
OG - Tundra Esports Match History
In the last 5 matches between the teams, the statistics for OG are woeful. The only draw happened in the DreamLeague S19 group stage, while Tundra won the other games.
Predicted result of OG - Tundra Esports
I see Tundra winning as the most likely outcome in this match, although I'm willing to believe one card from OG. Bzm and company have shown that they came to DreamLeague to play and win, for which they have the resources and means.
Primarily Disruptor for Chu, Morph for Yuragi and Doom/Beastmaster for DM. The problem is that Tundra's hero pool may get slammed, but I don't think they'll get it in the dry.
Bottom line: +1.5 on OG.
