Прогноз на матч: Winstrike Team - V-Gaming | Dota 2

The last round of the group stage of Season 4 of the Dota 2 Champions League crept up unnoticed. Already on October 2, we will most likely receive a complete list of participants in the upper bracket of the playoffs.

V Gaming and Winstrike will fight for the slot there. Both clubs are very close to the goal, and therefore indulgences for the rivals should not be expected.

We are trying to figure out what to expect from the confrontation, and who will ultimately play at the top of the playoff bracket.

Form V Gaming

V Gaming will be the favorites in this match. Let's admit.

V Gaming are the champions of the previous season, a team focused on serious work in subsequent seasons (judging by the interview with Naïve) and in general they are just great. It is true that this season they are playing worse than before.

Perhaps this is due to the underestimation of rivals. Perhaps not such a confident performance is due to the serious preparation of the opponents for the meetings with the champions of the third season.

One thing is clear - V Gaming does not look the same lump as they seemed in the third season of D2CL. This certainly plays into the hands of Winstrike.

V Gaming Latest Results

• Defeat qwerty 2-0
• Win over Borum 1-0
• Lost to miaww ^^ with a score of 0-1
• Lose at B8 Esports 1-2
• Lost to Creepwave 1-2

All these defeats indicate that it is necessary and possible to fight against V Gaming. Still, the championship in the local tournament does not make them a top-class team.

Winstrike Form

Winstrike will face V Gaming as a nominal outsider. Well, most likely yes.

In general, I'm not sure that Winstrike is outsiders here. As for me, the match can be assessed as a duel of quite equal teams.

At a distance, V Gaming certainly seem to be stronger, but this particular season - obviously not. The only thing that really cripples Winstrike is the recent defeat by Nemiga Gaming.

• Win over PuckChamp with a score of 1-2
• Lost to Creepwave 1-2
• Defeat to Nemiga 0-2

This match with Nemiga completely falls out of Winstrike's list of pretty confident fights. An extremely unpleasant situation.

History of personal confrontations

Previously, teams played once during the second season of the Dota 2 Champions League. Then the victory was celebrated by V Gaming.

The outcome of the fight

To be honest, I cannot make a choice in favor of one of the teams. I understand that the defeat of Winstrike by Nemiga is a very serious precedent, but here it is more a matter of chance.

From this fight, I expect a fight on three maps. I'll bet on this.

Result: total +2.5.
