Even on Sundays, Dota 2 Champions League Season 5 is full of life and action. There is no time to rest, because the start of the new DPC season is ahead, and it is difficult to find a place for preparation better than the Champions League.
Team Hydra and Team Empire will play in the next confrontation in the group stage of the tournament. A very interesting match, as for the opening of the 7th day of the fifth season.
We are figuring out who will be stronger in this confrontation and will improve their standings after the first week of battles.
Team Empire uniform
Team Empire will be the nominal favorite in this match. The advantage of the "Imperials" is rather shaky.
The bookmaker singles out "Empire" as a favorite, giving them a coefficient of about 1.8, but the Imperials do not and cannot have a clear favor. In fact, they are on an equal footing with Team Hydra.

- Kaori
Young fighters led by Ghostik. Well, I have already expressed doubts about the approach to the formation of the roster from the example of Team Spirit.
In my understanding, you cannot pick up random young and promising people in 2 weeks and build a working team from them. In Spirit, much more time was devoted to this, and the result came in a year, and then not without a large share of luck.
In the case of Empire and other teams of this caliber, it is not at all clear whether this principle of team formation will justify itself. Time will show.

Team Hydra uniform
Team Hydra will play as the catch-up in this match. We remember that the gap is so minimal that in fact there is no gap.
Team Hydra was assembled according to old blueprints rather than being inspired by "Dragons". These are three eminent people, experienced CIS warriors in the company of compatriots.

The match will be very interesting from the point of view of the approach to the collection of the squad. The new school is against the old, so to speak.

So far, the names do nothing to get the Hydra out. Having already 3 defeats out of 4 games behind them, the Kyrgyz run the risk of ending the league in a very low place.

Previously, the teams did not play with each other in such line-ups.
The outcome of the fight
Before the start of the tournament, Team Hydra seemed like a very potential line-up, but in reality we see the situation is completely opposite. This match will be for Team Empire.
Outcome: Team Empire victory.
