Match prediction: Winstrike vs NAVI in the first division ESL One CIS DPC Season 2
I do not advise taking into account the matches of NAVI against Team Spirit and Virtus.pro, where the team played the second number and lost in drafts. The impression was that they were simply afraid of their opponent, but this will definitely not happen in the fight with Winstrike. Natus Vincere will feel confident with Winstrike, but the main thing is not to lose on the first map, so as not to fall morally afterwards.
Winstrike squeezed out one map from Team Spirit, but this was largely due to Enigma, and then they lost without a chance to ASM.GMB. The guys understood that Sven does not work particularly well in the current patch.
Winstrike is worth wary of: Wraith King on carry, Snapfire on five, Tusk on four, and Mars/Puck on mid.
When playing against NAVI, it is worth focusing on bans against V-Tune: Phantom Assasin/Phantom Lancer/Morphling, but it is also worth banning Tiny/Invoker for iceberg. In case these heroes are banned, drafts for Winstrike will be very comfortable, the main thing is not to dwell on the conventional Sven again.
Bookmakers give odds of 3.3 on Winstrike and 1.338 on NAVI. The main problem of Winstrike is a narrow pool of characters, so they will be conditionally banned by Wraith King and it will be unpleasant. In general, Natus Vincere will definitely win this match, but I want to believe that Winstrike will squeeze out one map.
A nice 2: 0 ratio from NAVI is 2.064, but 2: 1 looks the most likely for 3.15.
Forecast: NAVI will outplay Winstrike with a score of 2: 0 by cards - coefficient 2.064; with a minimum risk of 2: 1 - ratio 3.15
