The second DPC-cycle has left to prepare for the final tournament of the season, planned in Stockholm on May 12th. While we are waiting for the start of ESL One Stockholm 2022, I suggest you relax and take a look at the battles within Dota 2 Champions League Season 10.
The group stage, which has already reached the final round, continues in full force there. The match between No Monkey Business and Rune Eaters will be one of the final confrontations.
Rune Eaters Form
Rune Eaters will be the favorite in this match. Bookmakers estimate the chances of Rune Eaters to win with odds around 1.6.
Perhaps, you can agree with the assessment of the bookmakers, because Rune Eaters look like one of the teams that can show a decent result during the entire tournament. The backbone of the team did it once and is ready to do it again.

Now the team is in a period of soft restructuring. A new hardliner has joined the team, who so far is only "shooting" to what is happening.

This will add a match with Yet Another Team, where the Rune Eaters are most likely to win. So far, the team within the D2CL is more than normal and the playoffs from the first place are very close.

No Monkey Business Form
No Monkey Business will be the catch-ups in this match. The chance of success of this team is estimated by a coefficient in the region of 2.3.
The gap in the nominal strength of the teams is equal to several tenths, and therefore we can assume that we have two almost equal teams. This is not surprising, because No Monkey Business has a quite tolerable squad for playing in local leagues like D2CL.

Here gathered the once budding performers. Young players like Retrograde and meLes with Egor definitely want to make themselves known, and D2CL can be a good help for this.
