Ottelun ennustus Shopify Rebellion VS Talon Esports
ESL One Birmingham 2024Welcome to EGamersWorld.
We continue to talk about what is happening at the main spring tournament of competitive Dota 2. ESL One Birmingham 2024 will show us a lot of colourful games and most importantly - on the lan.
We are still at the starting point of the tournament - the group stage of ESL One Birmingham 2024. We are talking about Group A, where the end of the first round is approaching. And closing out Talon Esports with a match against Shopify Rebellion.
We're trying to see if any of the teams will be stronger in this match and earn an important win at the Long Run Round-Robin of the group stage, or if we're in for a fighting draw.
Let's go.
Shopify Rebellion Form
Let's open the match analysis with an analysis of Shopify Rebellion's form. In this match, they will play as favourites with a good margin in the odds: 2.2 for a win in Bo2.
On the home stage, Shopify Rebellion have twice finished in the top 2. In the third round, Arteezy and company finally snatched the championship.
At The Lima Major 2023, Shopify Rebellion made it to the top 4. Getting into the top three was prevented, unexpectedly, by Aurora.
In addition to The Lima Major 2023, the team played at DreamLeague Season 19, and they played even better than the Peruvian major. Cooler because they played with substitutes (the inexperienced Mikey played as a substitute for Abed) and reached the top 3 of the tournament for $1,000,000.
Then there was The Berlin Major 2023 with a dismal top-12, and then the third round of DPC 2023: NA Division 1. The latter went better: SR took the top spot, guaranteeing themselves passage to The Bali Major 2023, and actually made it to The International 2023.
- Shopify Rebellion roster: Arteezy, Yopaj, SabeRLight, Thiolicor, Kitrak.
At DreamLeague Season 20 SR again played with substitutes, but this time they failed to repeat the success of the DL S19 period: Shopify Rebellion failed to pass the first group stage of the DL and, like Liquid, left the championship early.
After the 20th season of DreamLeague Shopify Rebellion played two major events: Bali Major 2023 and Riyadh Masters 2023. Both championships ended miserably: TOP-12 and TOP-16 respectively.
The International is more interesting than Shopify's position at DreamLeague Season 21. Having fallen into Group A to such serious opponents as Liquid and Aurora. Nevertheless, Shopify Rebellion took the first place in their basket, thereby advancing to the top set of play-offs.
In the first play-offs match of DreamLeague Season 21 Shopify Rebellion had to mobilise all the knowledge and all the skill to defeat the Eastern European residents from BB Team. The match ended with the score 2-1 in favour of Shopify, and Arteezy for the first time in a long time gave not a meme highlite, but a game-changing moment.
In the match to advance to the DL S21 SR Ledge and Team Spirit, but later again outplayed BB in the lower grid match. However, it was not possible to take revenge from Spirit in the grand finals: the Dragons easily slammed Shopify Rebellion with a score of 3-0, and Arteezy and company took the top 2.
Shopify Rebellion showed a very questionable performance in the group stage. They barely managed to claw their way into the top 4 in Basket B, finishing it with a score of 2-7.
In the seeding match for the play-offs of The International 2023, Arteezy and company played against one of the main favourites of the tournament, Team Spirit. I don't know why, with a huge advantage on the first map, SR couldn't do anything against the Dragons and rather mediocrely Ledgeyli in the series with a score of 0-2. Next was even more pitiful, as SR lost to their compatriots from TSM and left the main tournament of the year in 13-16th place.
In 2024, Shopify Rebellion won the qualifiers for DL Season 22 and ESL Birmingham 2024, and finished in the top 3 at Dacha.
At DreamLeague Season 22, Shopify Rebellion finished in the top 8, which is a normal result. Later they won the qualifiers for DreamLeague Season 23, finally securing their status as the strongest team in America.

Talon Esports uniforms
We continue the match analysis with the analysis of Talon's game form. Here the representatives of Southeast Asia will play the second number with the odds of winning at around 6.
The team confidently broke into the top 1 of the region, and also reached the heights at Lima Major 2023: in the first round of SEA the team took the 3rd place, at The Lima Major 2023 similar top 3, and in the next round they won the home league.
However, what followed was chaos. The first signs of Talon's fickleness were at DreamLeague S19, when after a solid The Lima Major 2023, the team finished top-12 at a major international event.
At the next Major, The Bali Major 2023, Talon finished in the top 8 before a very mediocre performance at DPC SEA 2023 Tour 3: Division 1, finishing in 4th place in their home league.
The last tournament before the Riyadh Masters 2023 was DreamLeague Season 20. There the team finished in the top 4.
- Talon Esports roster: Akashi, ChYuaN, Ws, Jhocam, ponyo.
At the Riyadh Masters 2023 Talon Esports got straight into the group stage, and all thanks to the rating from ESL. They did well in the group stage: they finished in the top 4 and made it to the top play-offs.
In the first match Talon Esports played against Quest Esports. In a very difficult match, being an outsider on paper, Talon Esports managed to win with a score of 2-1.
In the second round of the top set, Talon played the very same game against Liquid, when Zai ate them ancient in time for a seemingly victorious trip to Liquid's base. However, Talon didn't get confused at all and in the lower grid first defeated 9 Pandas, and then defeated Gaimin Gladiators, the storm of international dota.
In the match for the exit to the grand final Talon again ran into Liquid and again lost. Thus - top 3 at the Riyadh Masters to add to Talon's prizes for the year.
Before the Long Convergence The International 2023 they visited DreamLeague Season 21, where for some reason they decided to play at half strength. Otherwise I can't explain the team from the top 3 of Riyadh Masters not getting out of the group.
However, apparently the result of DreamLeague S21 was not a coincidence. Talon played disgustingly on the first day, losing to both Tundra and TSM without much chance. Then they managed to comeback by winning the remaining two matches against Keyd Stars and PSG Quest.
In the play-offs seeding match, they faced none other than Gaimin Gladiators. After losing the first map, they cameback on the second and third, thus sending the main contender for the Aegis of Champions to the bottom of the grid. However, they didn't manage to move very far, because in play-offs they met BB and, having lost, took TOP-12.
Later there were all kinds of qualifications for all tournaments. The new routine of the renewed competitive scene after TI 2023. From what can be noted, the victory at RES Regional Series: SEA #1, and that's basically it.

Predicted result of Shopify vs Talon Esports at ESL One Birmingham 2024
This match is definitely not going to be a high-scoring game. Both teams do not claim high places in the course of ESL One Birmingham 2024. Based on the odds, I'll take Talon as a handicap.
Bottom line: +1.5 on Talon.
Shopify Rebellion is the 18th ranked team in the world. A classic North American lineup with an Artisy star. It's been a while since the guys have tasted victory. Maybe this time the fate will be more favourable to them, but it is hard to believe it.
Talon Esports is the 14th team of the world ranking due to the merits of the previous squad. They are not bad at qualifying for major tournaments. At ESL Birningham they managed to get the only place in the closed quals. At PGL Wallachia Season 1 they failed to qualify and placed 3rd. They tried to fight for the only place on DreamLeague Season 23, but in the final they could not cope with Aurora. At the Elite League they qualified from the 2nd place of qualifications, but unfortunately did not show decent results at the tournament and left it in 17th place.
SR are the favourites in the meeting. Generally logical, but according to my estimations too high, I think it is more logical to try your luck with the outsider's handicap.
I am a prognosticator, I live only for this. I devote all my time to it. I have no other interests.
I have been doing my activity for a long time and have achieved some success in it. Whether to believe me or not is up to everyone. But why not give it a try? Maybe you like this kind of life!
Prediction: +1.5 Talon!
