Ottelun ennustus Team Spirit VS Team Liquid

Welcome to EGamersWorld!

We've waited! The main match of the biggest commercial event of the season - the Riyadh Masters 2023 Grand Final - is getting ready to take place in Riyadh.

At stake is the main prize of $4,000,000. Agree, such money will act as a serious motivation for the participants of this match.

Team Spirit and Team Liquid will play for the main prize. The format of the meeting is Bo5.

Let's try to figure out which of the teams will be stronger in the final Bo5 and after one series will take 4,000,000 dollars.

Let's go.

Team Spirit uniforms

Let's open the final match of the championship with an analysis of Team Spirit's form. In this match, the Dragons will play as favourites.

It's not even a matter of odds numbers. The point is that it was Spirit who made it to the Grand Final on the top grid, and given the current situation on the professional scene, that's worth a lot.

In the first round of DPC 2023: EEU Division 1, Spirit were ranked 2nd. Then the dragons were prevented from winning by BB Team, who finished the tournament in first place with a score of 7-0. After playing in their home league, Team Spirit visited The Lima Major 2023 where they finished in the top 8.

Later Spirit played the second round of the home league and again finished in the top 2. Going to The Berlin Major 2023 they expected to improve the result of the previous Major, but in the end it got worse: already TOP-12.

Despite the "sluggish" game on the international arena, Spirit still consistently come out of the groups at the Major, and at home they look like the main contender for victory in every game. This was the case in the third season of DPC 2023.

Spirit finished the Eastern Europe final cycle in first place. It took 3 attempts to earn the championship in Eastern Europe.

• Team Spirit roster: Yatoro, Larl, Collapse, Mira, Miposhka .

The last tournament before DreamLeague Season 20 for the Dragons was DreamLeague S20. There the representatives of Eastern Europe took the top 5, which is not a bad indicator, considering the above mentioned performance for the year.

Spirit visited The Bali Major 2023, but the trip there ended in failure. The team finished in the top 12, failing to make it to the prizes.

Team Spirit made it to the Riyadh Masters 2023 directly into the group stage. The Dragons finished with a score of 8-6 and second place in Group A.

Once in the play-offs Team Spirit started their way to the grand finals. In the first match they outplayed Team Aster, after a very difficult Long Srpeg on two maps.

Next was BB Team and almost identical series: Spirit fell behind on all 3 maps, but somehow won 2-1.

In the match to reach the grand finals they played against Liquid. After giving up the first map, they cameback on the second and demolished Liquid on the third. Spirit at Riyadh Masters 2023 transformed into macro masters.

Team Spirit's most popular characters

The top most picked Team Spirit characters is headed by Crystal Maiden. The character has appeared in peak 6 times and has an 83% win rate.

Apart from Crystal Maiden, Disruptor and Underlord are also appreciated, having been peaked 5 times each with 80% winrate. There was also Skywrath Mage (4 matches, 100% wins), Doom (4 matches, 75% wins), PL, Viper, Slark, Riki appeared 3 times each and has 100% wins.

Team Liquid uniforms

We continue the match analysis with an analysis of Team Liquid's match form. Nominally, they are behind here.

It's all down to, once again, their fall to the bottom of the championship grid. Over the course of the season, on the other hand, Liquid have looked much better.

At DPC 2023: WEU Division 1 Tour 1 Liquid didn't lose a single match, and then took the top 2 at The Lima Major 2023 while playing with substitutes. More than decent.

The second round of the DPC was as similar to the previous round as possible. Liquid again took the Top 1, but now with only one loss in the table. On the international stage, Liquid shone again, but were still overshadowed by Gaimin Gladiators, who took their second Major a Champions Cup of the season.

In their third season, Liquid were no longer able to cement their supremacy. "Liquid" fell to fourth place, but it was good enough to pass at Bali Major 2023, which in the case of the past at The International 2023 Team Liquid does not play any role.

• Liquid lineup: miCKe, Nisha, zai, Boxi, Insania .

After the disappointing result at DreamLeague Season 20, where Team Liquid fell out of the first group stage, there was a feeling that Bali Major 2023 would be held for Liquid at the International 2023. However, Liquid decided to switch on and play to the full.

And they almost succeeded: they took the top 2, losing in the grand final to Gaimin Glaidators! Again. Third time at a Major tournament in a year.

Riyadh Masters 2023 Team Liquid started at the Play-In stage, as they surprisingly didn't collect enough ESL ranking points. They finished the Play-In with a 3-1-1 score and second place in Basket A, and then played the group stage with a 3-3-1 statistic, advancing to the top set of play-offs.

In the first match of the Riyadh Masters 2023, Liquid played Gaimin Gladiators. A 2-1 win should have given a huge boost in morale for Liquid.

Next, Liquid defeated Talon Esports in a mind-blowing series with an upsets exchange, and met Team Spirit in the top set final. The latter were able to break Liquid and outscore them 2-1.

In the bottom set against Talon, they didn't need to fluff it up. Liquid swept Talon with a score of 2-0 and now Liquid will have a second chance for a rematch against the "dragons".

Team Liquid's most popular heroes

In the top picks of Team Liquid Crystal Maiden with 7 games and 6 wins.

In addition to Crystal Maiden, Doom (4 matches, 100% wins), Sven (4 matches, 75% wins), Skywrath Mage (4 matches, 75% wins) are the picks.

Rubick (4 matches, 25% wins), Void Spirit (3 matches, 100% wins) appear in spades, Underlord, Pangolier, Storm Spirit have 3 matches each and all have 2 wins.

Head-to-head history

Liquid and Spirit have played each other 4 times this season. Spirit won twice, including the top seeded match, Liquid won once and there was also a draw.

Outcome of the match

Considering the last match, it is obvious that Liquid is behind Spirit in macro play. However, on the final day they look completely different.

I think Liquid were able to draw conclusions from yesterday's match, but whether they will help them is another question. Nevertheless, I believe in Liquid. It's time for them to finally take the cup on the international stage, after all how many attempts they had.

Bottom line: victory for Liquid.
