We continue to prepare for the start of the Huya Winter Invitational 2021, where teams from Southeast Asia and China will play. Next in turn is a duel between Team Aster and Invictus Gaming.
This derby is something to watch commercial tournaments in China for. High level of two teams and every chance to see a colorful Dota.
I am sure she will be like that, quite after the reshuffle these teams seem to have only become stronger. With IG, everything is clear, since they practically did not change their line-up, but Aster, having replaced the mid lane with Ori, seems to have only typed.
We are trying to figure out which of the Chinese giants will be stronger and will earn the first points (if they earn) in the group stage of the Huya Winter Invitational 2021.
IG form
In this match, we will analyze the teams in a free format, since it is difficult to single out a favorite here. Let's start with the IG we met earlier.
In the analysis of the match between IG and OB Esports x Neon, I said that Invictus Gaming did not change the roster. I confess that there have been minimal changes.
IG Roster
The newcomer was Fade, who replaced Kaka. However, as for me, the replacement is essentially equal.
Invictus Gaming Latest Results
- Draw with OG 1-1
- Defeat Team Spirit 2-1
- Lost to Team Secret 0-2

We keep in mind that these matches were played within The International 10, and therefore with maximum concentration and a desire to win.
IG Heroes
Most played characters are Winter Wyvern (5 matches, 100% win rate), Nyx Assassin (5 matches, 60% win rate), Lion (5 matches, 20% win rate).
The most successful heroes are the same Winter Wyvern + Storm Spirit (4 matches, 100% win rate).
Team Aster Form
Team Aster will be on the other side of the barricades. Another grand presented at the Huya Winter Invitational 2021.
Last season could have been a great season for Aster had it not been for their fate at The International 10. Having been eliminated in the first round of the lower bracket, the club naturally made line-up changes.
Team Aster Roster
- Monet
- Ori
- Xxs
- Boboka
- Siamese C.
If there is no doubt about the arrival of Ori, since it is clearly an increase in comparison with White_Album, then Siamese C. has not yet earned a reputation as a stable performer.
