Прогноз на матч: 9 Pandas - Talon Esports | Dota 2

Welcome to EGamersWorld.

We continue to follow the DreamLeague S20 scene and have now prepared a betting tip for 9 Pandas - Talon Esports. The clash between Eastern Europe and South East Asia will take place on Day 3 of the big commercial event.

And the clash should be The International heresy. At least because they are the Underpassdogs of the Championship.

It was hard to put Talon Esports and 9 Pandas in the lead before the Long Saugus of the tournament, but they ended up here in the top 8.

What's more, the teams are showing a very upbeat but caveat dota. At Long Conpeg of the second group stage, both teams showed a colourful dota, although the result was slightly different.

Now it's up to them to determine the strongest in a head-to-head encounter, while we'll watch and analyse it all. That's what we'll do.

Form 9 Pandas

And let's start the analysis by taking a look at 9 Pandas' form. They are seen as favourites to win this match.

At least the bookmakers are very confidently calling 9 Pandas the winner of the series. The odds for such an outcome are estimated at around 1.5.

It is worth admitting that such a figure is quite justified. 9 Pandas, being a resident of the not most competitive region in 2023, Eastern Europe, have managed to cement their status as a stable team.

9 Pandas started the year in third place on DPC 2023: EEU Division 1 Tour 1, but already in the first international tournament of the year, The Lima Major 2023, while still under the HellRaisers banner, they managed to advance from the group. \

In their second DPC season, 9Pandas finished in the Top 1, beating all their direct rivals, Team Spirit and BB Team. Furthermore, 9Pandas surprised everyone at The Berlin Major 2023. In Germany, the Pandas made it to the top 3, the best result for the region for the year.

The 9 Pandas finished their third DPC cycle with qualification for the last Major of the season, The Bali Major 2023, with a third-place home league exit there. Next up was DreamLeague S20.

• The squad of 9Pandas: RAMZES, kiyotaka, MieRo, Antares, Solo .

Throughout the year, the team has been gaining in results and this applies primarily to the international scene. That's how we see at DreamLeague that 9 Pandas pose a serious threat to their rivals.

In the first group stage of DreamLeague, 9 Pandas solely led basket B with a 10-4 win. In the second stage of DreamLeague 9 Pandas also started off with a pleasing result, outplaying Aster after a difficult Long Sogpeg on the first card of the series.

The most popular 9Pandas characters

The most picked-up character in 9 Pandas is Skywrath Mage. He has appeared in Pandas games 6 times and has 3 wins.

He is followed by Bounty Hunter (4 matches, 50% wins), Tiny (3 matches, 66% wins), and Bloodseeker (3 matches, 33% wins). Also glimpsed in the pool are Chen and Doom (2 matches each, 100% wins), as well as Enchantress (2 matches, 50% wins).

Talon Esports uniforms

We continue to discuss the match at the same time analyzing the game parameters of Talon Esports. In this match, they play the second number one.

Bookmakers do not particularly believe in the success of Talon and they can be understood. Talon not shine with stability, but in this tournament is very cheerful, and therefore the odds on their victory is estimated at around 2.6.

And it looks logical. If 9 Pandas are steadily gaining throughout the year, then Talon is a bit "stormy" - it can be seen from their results.

The first DPC season was the most successful for Talon Esports. The team finished in the top-3 at the Long Conger of the competitive year in their home DPC 2023: SEA Division 1, but then unexpectedly broke into the top-3 of The Lima Major 2023.

The next DPC season, the result in the domestic league improved - they took the top 1, without losing a series. However, the result was slightly overshadowed by their performance on the international stage: they finished in TOP-12 at DreamLeague S19 and TOP-8 at The Berlin Major 2023.

Before DreamLeague Season 20, Talon Esports played on their home stage, where they finished in the top-4 this time, while losing their chances of qualifying for the IO Bali Major 2023. A prime example of the chaotic and unstable nature of teams from Southeast Asia.

• Talon Esports: 23savage, Mikoto, Jabz, Q, Oli.

Despite very erratic results for the year, Talon Esports are in no hurry to make any roster replacements and that's a plus. In part, the stable roster approach bore fruit at DreamLeague S20, where Talon looked very lively in the first group stage and slightly worse in Long Converge the second.

Talon Esports' most popular heroes

Windranger was and still is the most frequent guest in Talon's spades. The hero was taken 10 times and won in 6 matches.

They are followed by Silencer (6 matches, 66% wins), Rubick (6 matches, 50% wins), Morphling (5 matches, 20% wins).

Also fond of Batrider (4 matches, 75% wins) and also Spirit Breaker (4 matches, 50% wins).

History of head-to-head encounters

The teams have not previously played each other in official matches. This match is the clubs' debut face-off.

Match outcome

From the game of Talon and 9 Pandas I expect high speed and competitive Dota. As I think the best option would be a total of +2.5, as the teams are playing each other for the first time and will be looking closely at the behavior of the opponent in the course of the series.

Bottom line: +2.5.
