Прогноз на матч: OG - Team Liquid | Dota 2

Team Liquid and OG fight for a place in the EPIC League Division 1 Upper Playoff Bracket. The match format is best of 1, what could be more interesting?

The Liquid played against the OG in the group stage and defeated them 2-1 on maps. In best of 1, things can be different.

Drafts:

OG:

- Play through Earth Spirit in mid and sometimes take him to four
- Top carry for MidOne - Sven (picked 4 times)
- You should be wary of Ceb's Elder Titan offlane. By the way, he took it against Team Liquid and lost.
- Saksa often plays Tusk (3 times) and Shadow Demon (2 times)
- n0tail discovered Ancient Apparation for the top five and won it twice already
- Top bans against OG: Morphling (8 bans), IO and Sven (4 bans each)

Team Liquid:

- Constant role swaps, mid lane goes offlane on Bloodseeker/Invoker. Taiga on Earth Spirit bursts into the center and destroys
- Top Team Liquid Heroes: Earth Spirit, Slardar, Lone Druid, Bloodseeker
- Besides Earth Spirit, Taiga often plays on Tiny (picks 4 times)
- iNsaNiA, at every opportunity, picks himself Oracle
- Top bans against Team Liquid: Earth Spirit (7 bans) and Timbersaw/IO/Slardar (3 bans each).

Prediction for the match Team Liquid vs OG:

Both teams should build a draft around Earth Spirit and play through this character. As best of 1, every pick and ban is very important. I think OG should first ban Slardar + Oracle, and Team Liquid should ban Morphling and IO. Thus, one of the teams will definitely have Earth Spirit, also do not forget about Elder Titan from Ceb, and on the other hand Enigma from Taiga or Lone Druid from qojqva. Team Liquid managed to get out of a bad situation in the group and now they should be in good shape and in positive terms.

Prediction: Team Liquid will beat OG in a replay match at EPIC League Division 1 (odds - 2.05)
