There are only a few days left before the start of DPC-2021/22. On November 29, teams from the SEA region will join the battle, then Western Europe will join, and from December 2, fights will begin in the regular stage of the CIS or Eastern Europe.
In the new season, everyone's attention will be riveted on Eastern Europe. After all, this is where the reigning world champions - Team Spirit - play.
However, we still have time to talk about dragons. The CIS Dota holiday will be opened by Team Empire in the match against AS Monaco Gambit.
We are figuring out who will be stronger in this match and will start the first season with a victory.
AS Monaco Gambit Form
The winner of this match is the bookmaker's team AS Monaco Gambit. And I have questions.
And why, there is more faith in them than in Empire. AS Monaco Gambit put together a virtually new lineup, with the exception of Immersion and Lorenof.
AS Monaco Gambit Roster
- Alberkaaa
- Lorenof
- meLes
- Immersion
- HappyDyurara
You look at this composition and what do you see? Does he inspire confidence? Here, in addition to the eternally promising immersion, in fact, there are no players to whom you can take a closer look.
AS Monaco Gambit Latest Results
- 0-2 loss to the Hellbear Smashers
- Lost to Winstrike Team 0-2
- Defeat to Chicken Fighters 0-2
- Lost to Team Unique with a score of 1-2
- Lose at PuckChamp 1-2
The last games of the previous roster looked terrible and not unreasonable. As if it was necessary to change something and someone, but somehow there is no faith in the new line-up at all.
Team Empire uniform
Team Empire will play as catching up in this match. Well, let it be.
Still, Empire has a similar situation to AS Monaco Gambit. There is also a completely new lineup, built around the experienced Ghostik.
Empire Roster
- lightless
- Shisui
- Ghostik
- [T] SA
- Kaori
The only thing that instills confidence in the success of Team Empire in this particular match is the experience of playing together at the official event.
Before the DPC start, Team Empire managed to play at D2CL Season 5, where they took 4th place. Yes, this is a tournament with teams far from the level of those in the upper division of the CIS, but still.

History of personal confrontations
Previously, the teams in the updated line-ups did not face each other in official matches. The match within the regular stage of the DPC will be the debut face-to-face confrontation.
Outcome
In this match I will believe in Empire, but I will not guarantee their success in this match.
Exodus: victory for Empire.
