]]>The post DreamHack DreamLeague returns with new format appeared first on Esport Bet.
]]>In collaboration with Intel, this 21st edition of DreamLeague, sporting a prize pool of US$1 million, is set to unfold just ahead of The International 2023.
The condensed seven-day schedule accommodates the event within the busy 2023 Dota 2 esports calendar.
DreamLeague Season 21 extends invitations to 12 competitive Dota 2 teams, including prominent names such as Evil Geniuses and Team Liquid.
The tournament’s novel structure consists of two key stages: the novel Group Stage taking place from September 18th to 21st, and the ensuing Playoffs scheduled for September 21st to 24th.
The Group Stage has undergone significant streamlining, condensing into two round-robin groups, each housing six teams.
Following the group stage duels, two teams from each group will exit the competition.
Notably, all Group Stage matches adopt a two-game series configuration, featuring consecutive Best-of-1 (BO1) matches.
Subsequently, the eight advancing teams will engage in a fierce double-elimination showdown during the Playoffs.
Here, all matches will adopt a Best-of-3 (BO3) format. The upper bracket will welcome four teams, with the remaining four battling it out in the lower bracket.
The pinnacle of the tournament, the Grand Finals, will be a riveting Best-of-5 (BO5) contest, with the victors walking away with a substantial reward of US$300,000.
DreamLeague holds a revered status as one of the longest-standing Dota 2 events, originating from DreamHack in 2013.
In the present day, ESL FACEIT Group has taken the reins of organizing the competition.
The 2023 iteration of DreamLeague has been revamped to align seamlessly with the newly restructured ESL Pro Tour.
Shane Clarke, the Director of Game Ecosystems – Dota 2 at ESL FACEIT Group, expressed his anticipation for the upcoming DreamLeague season.
He highlighted the continuation of the ESL Pro Tour for Dota 2 and the distinctive online ambiance that DreamLeague delivers.
Clarke emphasized the significance of Season 21, which unfolds on patch 7.34 and marks the final high-tier tournament preceding TI12 (The International 2023).

Tundra Esports stunned OG (2-1) on Tuesday to improve their record to 2-2. It marked their second big performance of the tournament after they took a map off Team Secret (1-2) just a couple of weeks back.
Whether Tundra can defeat Team Liquid, however, is another question. Since acquiring Syed Sumail “SumaiL” Hassan as a replacement for Samuel “Boxi” Svahn, Liquid have yet to lose a match and it doesn’t seem like that’s going to change on Saturday.
Team Liquid are in great form and clear favourites to win on Saturday, however, they’re not flawless. They struggled a bit with their synergy last week, which is something Tundra will be able to exploit and win one map. We don’t expect much more from the outriders though. This bet is paying $1.74 with esports betting sites.

Team Secret vs OG promises to be an exciting bout between two of the strongest European Dota 2 teams. Although OG are more successful internationally, it is Secret who usually get the better of them.
Last year Secret won eight out of 10 head-to-head bouts (8-2) with OG, to which they added another win (2-1) in February of this year. Despite their strong record against OG, Secret haven’t been playing too well of late and are 3-4 across the last month.
Like Secret, OG struggled to impress in 2021 and have played only four games (2-2) since the start of April. This is a match between two struggling juggernauts that can go both ways, however, we don’t believe either side is capable of a clean sweep. A 2-1 victory for Team Secret seems like the most likely outcome.

This will mark Team Nigma’s first meeting with Team Liquid since early in December 2020 when Aydin “iNSaNiA” Sarkohi and his team secured a 2-1 victory. It marked Liquid’s fifth win of the year and their second of the month, however, it’s worth noting that Liquid lost their remaining nine games (5-9) throughout 2020.
These are two of the best European Dota 2 teams and while we would rank Nigma higher, they’re also far more inconsistent, so it’s difficult to trust them with our money. Out of 12 best-of-three series between these two sides, eight ended in all three maps played, which includes all of the last three. Esports bookmakers offer $2.02 on that trend to continue which is a great bet we can’t pass on.

Vikin.gg and Team Liquid will clash in the opening fixture of DreamLeague Season 14 DPC EU Upper Division. This will mark their first meeting since November when Vikin.gg reverse-swept (2-1) Liquid during the EPIC League.
Team Liquid have since looked fairly solid and also enjoyed a decent run in November-December. However, they also had a few iffy showings, which we expect to see a more of in their first games of the year.
Vikin.gg usually do well against Team Liquid (4-1 in 2020), which is why we can’t quite agree with the betting odds. At $2.54, Vikin.gg are overpriced, which presents us with a great value bet.

Assuming The International 10 would have happened, it’s hard to imagine any team other than Team Secret lifting the Aegis of Champions, simply due to their superb form throughout 2020. That, however, was not as apparent towards the end of the season, when Secret started to slump.
What’s more, Team Secret have not played an official match since the second week of December, meaning they’re entering the DreamLeague a bit ring rusty. Mudgolems have played six games during that stretch, which includes three games from last week and while they were not particularly successful, mudgolems are at least not entering this match cold.
At $7.02, esports betting sites suggest mudgolems have only about 14.2% chance of winning which is way too low. They have forced Secret to three maps in their last meeting and there is nothing that would suggest mudgolems can’t do it again.

]]>The post Evil Geniuses vs. Ninja In Pyjamas betting – DreamLeague odds & form appeared first on Esport Bet.
]]>After Arteezy suffered “Cliffeezy” and lost against Keen Gaming in the DreamLeague Season 11 Upper Bracket, Evil Geniuses must take on Ninja In Pyjamas in a best-of-three elimination match tonight.
Evil Geniuses started their journey in Stockholm very well by taking down Natus Vincere 2-1 and whitewashing Vici Gaming on both day 1 and day 2.
In their draft against Natus Vincere, we thought that Evil Geniuses only picked Oracle to deny the chance of the support player, Sonneiko to play him, later it became clear that Oracle is Fly’s new favourite hero in this patch. Fly played the hero for four games out of five games in the group stage and had a 100 per cent win rate with the hero in the tournament so far.

Obviously, Keen Gaming noticed that and refused to let Evil Geniuses pick Oracle by banning in the first banning phase of all three games they encountered. By doing so, Keen Gaming forced Evil Geniuses to reveal their other support heroes, including Witch Doctor and Dark Willow.
Dark Willow is one of the best tier supports in the current meta and Crit is definitely capable of playing him.
Although Dark Willow and Witch Doctor did plenty of early roaming in game two and game three, they never had their victory because Keen Gaming was always one step ahead of them in ganking or escaping from team fights.
Dark from Keen Gaming also performed brilliantly by pushing Arteezy’s Ursa to cliff, immobilizing him for more than twenty seconds until Dark Willow was forced to rescue him.

Ninja in Pyjamas finished third place in group B and survived the elimination match against Forward Gaming.
Unfortunately for them, they started the opening match by taking down Fnatic, but lost against Fnatic in the decider match.
From their draft of late in group stage, we could see that they are well prepared and developed a lot of strategy by utilizing their heroes pool knowledge.
In the most important elimination match against Forward Gaming, they drafted Razor for the first time in Stockholm and presented a similar skill build of Matumbaman’s Razor, which maximizes the Unstable Current while Static Link is on level two.
Evil Geniuses vs. Ninja In Pyjamas betting prediction
Evil Geniuses might be saving strategy up until now, so we recommend to bet on Evil Geniuses to win the match at $1.40 with GG Bet.

]]>Virtus Pro will face Chaos Esports Club in a best-of-three series after losing to Fnatic in the Upper Bracket of DreamLeague Season 11.
Virtus Pro finished in first place in Group C, but their performance was quite shady considering they were one tier above their opposition, but still had their struggles, winning both matches 2-1.
Virtus Pro displayed a wide heroes pool knowledge in its drafting tactics, opting for Invoker, Outworld Destroyer, Juggernaut, Kunka, Lifestealer, Puck and many other options. However, their support heroes were limited. They spammed Enigma as their position four support in all three games against Mineski.

Chaos Esports Club has displayed some great form in the last 24 hours after eliminating Team Liquid yesterday.
W33 has been showing off his versatility of heroes’ pool knowledge in this tournament.
Chaos Esports Club knew that Magical from Natus Vincere is good at playing Lina, so they grabbed him and let W33 control this hero.
W33 also banned Lone Druid and snatched Razor from Team Liquid yesterday and left Matumbaman with no choice but to pick Monkey King to face him.

Our guess is that W33 may take Invoker or Outworld Destroyer against Virtus Pro in this match-up have a better chance to disrupt Virtus Pro’s draft. However, hFn, the carry position player from the Chaos Esports Club, is heavily reliant on Troll Warlock in professional matches.
Virtus Pro vs. Chaos Esports Club betting prediction
There is a big gap of game play skill between these two sides, leading to us giving Virtus Pro a 85 per cent chance to win this match-up.
Our recommendation is to go low and bet on Virtus Pro to win the series at better than $1.22 odds with GG Bet.

]]>After surviving an elimination match against Natus Vincere two days ago, J.Storm must now face Mineski in the Lower Bracket of DreamLeague Season 11.
Different from the previous one-off match, this is a best-of-three series.
J.Storm’s performances at Stockholm have not set the world alight, as they have only one win from five games played.
SEE ALSO: LATEST ESPORTS BETTING TIPS
That victory was an important one, however, as it gives them a chance to progress in the lower half of the draw.
J.Storm did their homework on Natus Vincere, banning Oracle at the first opportunity and also securing Nyx Assassin in case they had to face Medusa.

The draft went as expected and the North American team used Nyx Assassin to burn the mana of Medusa and Spiked Carapace to stun and distract Leshrac in the team fight.
Mineski, as one of the top contestants in Group C, played a total of nine games in the group stage.
They have displayed a versatility of heroes in every role and showed real quality when they took a game off Virtus Pro in the first round of the Upper Bracket.
Mineski vs J.Storm betting predictions
Although J.Storm have proven to be canny drafters, we give Mineski a 60 per cent chance of winning this match-up.
Back them to go through at $1.50 odds with GG Bet.

]]>They started their group stage in promising fashion by whitewashing J.Storm, but they lost against Team Secret and Keen Gaming on the second day of round-robin games.
Liquid drafted greedily in game one against Keen by putting Shadow Fiend as their off-laner – always a suspect choice for a hero that needs space to farm.
SEE ALSO: LATEST ESPORTS BETTING TIPS
They lost the opener and then were outdrafted in game two when the other side picked Razor to counter Lone Druid in the laning phase.
Old Chicken, the position one player from Keen Gaming, did a decent amount of roaming to help his team secure kills and towers early in the game.
That result put Liquid into a Lower Bracket battle with Chaos Esports Club, who finished last in Group D.

Chaos did their homework and made some excellent moves in the draft, first banning Lone Druid and then picking Razor in the first round.
Team Liquid seemed panicked and drafted Monkey King to lane against Razor, which was questionable because there is no way a melee hero can withstand the pressure of Razor in the laning phase.
Chaos pushed the high ground after securing Ursa the Aegis of the Immortal and Liquid did not answer because they had no way to take on a fight.
The South American side gained both the melee and range barracks in mid-lane without any casualties and moved on to break the top-lane barracks.
Liquid were forced to answer their call and started a team fight, but they could not make any kills before sacrificing all their members.
They surrendered after Ursa went for a “bloodbath” in their fountain.
Their early exit in Stockholm leaves Liquid in serious danger of missing out on The International.
They have only obtained 525 Dota Pro Circuit points so far and there are only two minors and two majors remaining this season.

]]>Natus Vincere had a tough match against Evil Geniuses and must now face Chaos Esports Club in the losers’ match in Group D at the Dota 2 DreamLeague Major.
NaVi’s lack of hero knowledge was sorely exposed, as Evil Geniuses only had to prevent them from picking Oracle to win the games.
However, they learned something when they lost game three when the opposition’s Viper crushed their hopes of winning because they had no way to counter him.
Natus did try to draft Alchemist in the expectation that both he and Viper would farm peacefully in mid-lane, but Evil Geniuses ran Shadow Shaman into mid-lane as babysitter to zone out Alchemist.
Alchemist had three deaths at the end of the game without killing any heroes.
Chaos Esports Club drafted Troll Warlock – a high tier hero in this meta – as their carry in both games against Vici Gaming, but they lost each time because the opposition understood how to counter him.

Vici picked both Bane Elemental and Necrophos in game one to prevent Troll Warlock hitting anyone when he used his ultimate skill, Battle Trance.
By sleeping him and disarming him in that mode, they ensured Troll Warlock could only prolong his surviving time while delivering no output damage.
In game two, Chaos lost because Vici drafted Viper. Similar to Natus Vincere, Chaos picked Alchemist to play in mid-lane, but Vici put Morphing there to harass and ran Viper in safe-lane.
Chaos were outsmarted from the off and called GG when they realised they had no way to stop Vici from pushing in their high ground.
Chaos Esports Club vs Natus Vincere betting predictions
After running our eye through the two teams’ recent drafts and performances, we give Natus Vincere a 70% chance to win this match-up.
You can back them for the W at $1.58 odds with GG Bet, but you might want to wait and see who drafts Viper and then opt for that team in the live betting markets.
