All good things come to an end sooner or later and the group stage of Dota 2 Champions League Season 5 is no exception. There are 4 final days of the group race ahead and I hope there are a lot of surprises.
On the 11th day of the group stage, Brame and Creepwave will face off in battle. In theory, this is a rehearsal for the D2CL season 5 grand finale, but in practice, of course, this can change.
We are figuring out which of the favorites will be stronger in a face-to-face battle and will strengthen their leader status at the end of the match.
Creepwave shape
Although the teams look plus or minus equal, there is always someone a little stronger. In this case, so can be said about Creepwave.
Still, the reigning champions are in business, at least slightly in a modified form. But, these changes do not spoil the team at all.
Creepwave roster for Dota 2 Champions League
- Crystallis
- StormStormer
- Tobi
- Suzuya
- Fishman
The squad is fighting, and we see confirmation of this for the second season in a row. We are waiting for signing by the organization, not otherwise.

Quite unexpectedly, Creepwave lost against V Gaming, but nothing critical happened in this episode. One way or another, they will advance to the upper bracket of the playoffs.

Brame shape
On the other side of the barricades will be the Brame, still in the shadow of the Creepwave. How long?
Well, at least until the start of the playoffs, where Brame, like Creepwave, is most likely to play in the upper bracket.

Like Creepwave, Brame made a point change, swapping the first position player. As we can see, the decision was correct.

History of personal confrontations
Previously, Brame and Creepwave did not appear in the updated lineups.
Exodus
In this game, I expect an equal game, as evidenced by the position of both teams in the group table. I do not think that anyone here intends to give up the victory, and therefore it is quite possible to see 3 cards.
Outcome: total +2.5.
