Прогноз на матч: Vici Gaming - Team Secret | Dota 2

Team Secret: After the first season, many started talking about the decline in the form of secrets, and that the European Dota is at the bottom. But I'll tell you that it is not, and there are reasons why the secrets played so badly in the second season, hitting only the wild card. Firstly, they have already definitely hit the Internet, and can relax, and sweat for the sake of 25 thousand greens, for a whole month, well, such a thing. Because even getting into the playoff stage does not guarantee you money and points. Secondly, this is a balanced patch, the fact is that clement does not look at the meta, but dictates his own, and just after the balanced patch, his personal meta suffered quite a lot, and he is still looking for it.

Vici Gaming: last time, this one, they are in a wild card, they play with a full roster, the last wild card was not a problem for them, I think this one will not be too much, because the Chinese teams are used to playing in a meat grinder.

The outcome of the meeting

The teams met face to face over a year ago, and this is their first meeting after a long time.

At this time, most bookmakers unanimously see Team Secret as the favorite of the game with an average odds for winning of 2.2. Vici Gaming's chances of winning are estimated by the bookmakers with an average odds of 3.6, and of a draw, 2.8. In my opinion, just in such conditions, Clement's sports interest awakens, I don't think that he went to the Major without preforms, and he probably felt his meta. I think that Team Secret is the winner in this meeting.

Team Secret victory

In the penultimate round of the first gaming day of the Wild Card tournament, we will have a fight between Secret and Vici. For dessert, the organizers left a truly epic match.

There is an opinion in the community that these 2 clubs will successfully pass the Wild Card. This opinion is entirely justified.

Last season we saw that Vici Wild Card has a very convenient format and they have no problems with it. The team safely reached Kiev in full force and there is no reason to doubt their form.

You can doubt Secret, but again there are factors that put them in favor. The IG replacement and Nigma's chemistry are key.

Secret's playing form in the second season left much to be desired, but towards the end Puppey and the company made their way impressively to WePlay AniMajor. But whether they can beat Vici is a big question.

Secret form

Since we started with Secret, it would be nice to continue the theme. We understand the condition of the European grandee.

Secret in the second season played imposingly, often filling the lines and losing the beginning of matches. Qualitative changes are visible in the last series against Liquid and Brame: in the series against Liquid Puppey he focused on the weak point - the lines. Hence the peaks: Snapfire, Dark Willow, Windranger, Omniknight, Sven.

The key to Secret's victory is playing successfully on the lanes. In the next map against Liquid Secret, they again pressed the teamfight and completely closed the Wisp + Gyro combination: this time they had Winter Wyvern, Windragner, Razor, Magnus and WK at their disposal.

Secret's last 5 matches

• Beat Tundra Esports 2-1
• Lost to Alliance with a score of 1-2
• Lost to OG with a score of 0-2
• Defeat Team Liquid 2-1
• Defeat Brame 2-0

In their matches, Secret is very often doing the first 10 kills (this was the case on two maps with Brame, on two maps with Liquid and on two maps with OG) and start the game at late timings, breaking through a total of 45+ in kills.

Vici Form

Now let's move on to the main contender for the victory in the whole Wild Card. I ask you to love and favor Vici Gaming.

Vici is a team similar to Secret in character. If the game on the lines did not work out for them, it can be difficult for them to return. Vici's main trump card is supports.

This also differs in draft preferences: the most frequently picked Lion and Treant Protector have 60% and 71% winrates in the last 25 games, respectively. Vici also does not lose against Specter, having 100% in 6 games.

Results of the last 5 matches

• Win over RNG with a score of 2-0
• Defeat Aster 2-0
• Defeat Elephant 2-1
• Defeat Sparking Arrow Gaming 2-0
• Defeat from PSG.LGD with a score of 1-2

Again, very few are the first to commit 10+ kills. We did it 5 times in the last 8 maps.

Personal meeting history

In the last 5 matches, Secret has the advantage. They won 3 times, of which 2 - 2-0.

The outcome of the meeting

It's also dangerous to bet on Wild Card, but there is no place to go. Previously, I would bet on a draw, but I would also take a closer look at the total number of kills - I think there will be a lot of them in this match.

I also recommend following the teams initially. The first matches will show what's what, so the draw is only preliminary.

Result: handicap +1.5 on Vici (+ total kills more in live).

An interesting match, two equal teams and let's decide who we will give preference to in this match. Team Secret have already made it to the International and I think that they will not play with great passion in this tournament, perhaps they will even test something. I have been watching Vici Gaming for a long time and I can say that they can really close this meeting with a score of 2-0. We know and understand perfectly well how the Chinese can play in tournaments of this type, in this match they will be stronger and this is a fact. Don't forget about live bets, by evaluating drafts, you can place a bet and come out on top. This match is very sweet in this regard.

I recommend betting on Vici Gaming in this match.
