Ottelun ennustus PSG.LGD VS Azure Ray
The Bali Major 2023Good to see you on EGamersWorld.
The final Major of the season is moving to a new stage. The play-offs continue, but now the games take place in a full-fledged, albeit very peculiar, arena.
The matches begin with a game for life, the first match in the second round of the lower net. At stake is reaching the top 6 and some very important points.
And what a match we've got in store. A Chinese derby, with the winner advancing to the top 6.
To be fair, it's an important event for teams from the Middle Kingdom, as local clubs are looking confused for the 2023 season. It is the Bali Major 2023 that could be the starting point for the two clubs in their possible ascent to the top.
We will try to figure out which team will be stronger in this match, pass their crucial rival and guarantee themselves at least a top-6 finish in the tournament.
Let's go.
Form PSG.LGD
We begin our look at the Chinese derby with an analysis of PSG.LGD's form. In this match, xiao8's charges will play as the favourites.
The bookmakers confirm the pre-match position. The odds on PSG.LGD are around 1.6.
It's not hard to agree with the bookies. PSG.LGD are destined to become a top 1 team in China, and they certainly show it with their performance.
PSG.LGD have shown themselves in good form exclusively in their home DPC 2023: China Upper Division. Their entire portfolio in 2023 consists of reaching the top 3 of the regional league: twice top 1 (DPC 2023: Tour 1 and DPC 2023: Tour 3) and top 2 at DPC 2023: Tour 2.
On the international stage, PSG.LGD failed The Lima Major 2023, where they crashed out in the first round of play-offs. The second Major season was no better than the first, PSG.LGD again flew out in the first round of play-offs taking the top-12 in the tournament. In addition, the team missed out on DreamLeague S19.
- PSG.LGD: shiro, NothingToSay, niu, planet, y`.
PSG.LGD reached their peak at the DL S20 where they reached the DreamLeague Season 20 play-offs, their highest score of the year. In the end, the Chinese finished in the top 3 at the prestigious championship.
Team Spirit made the group stage of The Bali Major 2023 in 4th place in Group B. The xiao8 side finished 3-4-1 and made it through to the top flight of the play-offs. There PSG.LGD met Team Liquid and were able to give battle to one of the strongest teams in the world, but lost 1-2.
In the next match PSG.LGD already played against their once crucial rival Team Spirit. The Chinese proved to be stronger, defeating their archrivals 2-1.
Most popular PSG.LGD protagonists
The most frequent guest of PSG.LGD picks in DreamLeague S20 is Techies (5 matches, 60% wins). Next are Void Spirit and Magnus with 4 matches and 75% wins.
Opponents should watch out for Phantom Lancer (3 matches, 100% wins). Other picks are Skywrath Mage (3 matches, 66% wins), and Ember Spirit (3 matches, 66% wins).
Azure Ray Form
We continue with the analysis of the match form of Azure Ray. In this match, the team will play as an outsider.
Bookmakers do not particularly believe in the success of Azure Ray. The odds on the Maybe team's victory are estimated at around 2.5.
Before Long Songpeg of the tournament Azure Ray looked like a "cat in the bag". Truth be told, not much has changed since then.
In general, Azure Ray in the Long Cognegg season looked like a team playing solely for results, that is, getting into the Major. We saw a similar story with the gathering of super teams, some results in the first months and oblivion in the end.
Not sure if Azure Ray will follow the same scenario, but there are fears about it. For now, though, we'll see.
Azure Ray qualified for the 2023 Bali Major by playing in their home league. They played in the Top 4, which isn't a decent result for a team with such a big name.
- Azure Ray's line-up: Lou, Somnus, chalice, fy, 天命.
The "retirees" have decided to shake off the old days. So far it's not going so well.
At the Bali Major 2023, Azure Ray were one step away from being eliminated from the tournament. Team Somnus managed to beat Bleed in Group B tiebreaks for the top 6.
The hardest group stage turned into equally hard play-offs. In the first match Azure Ray had to face Tundra, but after BB got a technical defeat, Azure Ray played an Eastern European team. In general, they managed to win with a score of 2-1, but very hard.
Azure Ray's most popular heroes
The most popular Azure Ray hero remains Storm Spirit. The character has appeared 9 times and has a win rate of around 66%.
Next comes Pugna (8 games, 62% win rate), Pangolier (7 games, 71% win rate), Batrider (7 games, 71% win rate), Techies (7 games, 57% win rate).
There's also Keeper of the Light (6 games, 66% wins), Silincer (6 matches, 50% wins), Medusa (6 matches, 50% wins).
History of head-to-head encounters
The teams have previously played each other twice during the season. PSG.LGD won in their home league and in the Bali Major 2023 match ended in a draw.
The outcome of the match
In this match I don't expect an evenly fought game. Despite playing two teams that know each other, I'm sure PSG.LGD will prove to be better than Azure Ray. What's more, I think LGD will win 2-0, but I wouldn't bet on that in a Mandarin derby.
Bottom line: PSG.LGD win.
PSG.LGD is the 2nd team in the world rankings. The team is not having the best of times. In the Chinese region, PDC finished the first round in 1st place, without a chance to beat all their opponents. But in the Lima Major, they failed to achieve high results and the team left the tournament with 9-12th places. The second round of the DPC was also quite good. As a result, they ended up in 2nd place, leaving behind Xtreme Gaming. DreamLeague S19 was skipped by the organization. Berlin major also held not too successfully. They took the same 9-12th position in the table. In the 3rd round, DPC again took the lead. But at DreamLeague S20, they put on an excellent performance, taking 3rd place at the end of the tournament.
Azure Ray - formerly Ybb Gaming with big replacements. Removed the 2nd, 3rd and 4th positions from their roster and picked up Dota legends Somnus, chalice and fy. So far they've only managed to take 4th place in the 3rd round of Chinese regional DPC.
LGD are looking better and stronger on all fronts. I don't even take into account the victory over BB by AR. I can't even imagine what kind of dysmorality they were playing in. They are inferior on all other fronts.
I'm a prognosticator, that's all I live for. I dedicate all my time to it. No other interests.
I've been doing it for a long time and have had some success. Believe it or not, it's up to everyone. But why not give it a try? Maybe you will like this life too!
Prediction: LGD win!
