In the final match of the penultimate game day of DPC 2023: EEU Upper Division, HellRaisers and Darkside will face each other. The match will decide the fate of the last slot at Lima Major 2023.
HellRaisers will approach the fight with 4-2 stats in series and 8-5 in maps. Winning the match guarantees them a place in the Lima Major, as the closest pursuer in the face of Virtus.pro will end the tour 4-3 at best.
Darkside this match actually does nothing. In case of victory, they will gain a foothold in the middle of the standings, and if they lose, they somehow risk getting into replays, but also
this is a little unbelievable.
In general, HellRaisers have all the cards. It remains to play them well.
HellRaisers form
We begin the review of the match with an analysis of the game form of the favorite of the future meeting. This is our HellRaisers.
Bookmakers believe in HellRaisers with a little more enthusiasm than their counterparts from Darkside. For the victory of the Solo team, they give a coefficient in the region of 1.4.
To put it bluntly, a fairly confident value to call HR a clear favorite. It is possible to agree with the opinion of the bookmakers in our case.
Composition of HR
Even from the first HellRaisers games, it became clear that the team is aimed at high performance. Before the start of the tournament, it seemed that HR would become a kind of shelter for the shot pilots, but in fact, veterans of competitive dota are in the company of young and promising performers.
HellRaisers Players
- Daxak
- depressed kid
- MieRo`
- Antares
- Solo
They look good, tolerably for an Eastern European pillbox. The question is how they will behave if they win here and further advance to the Major.
HellRaisers performance
Before the big changes in the roster, HR won the second division of Eastern Europe and the local Last-Last Chance tournament. This was followed by changes and participation in the BB Xmas Show.
The tournament itself was sluggish for HellRaisers. The updated HR roster took second place in the group, after which, having won the series in the playoffs, they fell to the lower bracket, where Nemiga Gaming was eliminated.
DPC 2023 started with a match against Nemiga Gaming. HellRaisers got even with Nemiga for insults at the BB Xmas Show, winning the debut confrontation with a score of 2-1.
In the second game at DPC 2023: EEU Upper Division HellRaisers faced One Move. Solo's wards managed to defeat the weakest team in the division with a score of 2-0.
In the third series, HR faced the BB Team. Being the main favorite to win the season, BB confirmed their status without any problems by closing HR.
Then HellRaisers played against Virtus.pro. Then the bears were on a minimal rise after the victory over Darkside, but it did not help to overcome HR and they closed their counterparts with a score of 2-0.
In the previous match, HR played against NaVi. I couldn't find another word for this but “beating”: 2-0 in favor of HellRaisers and another shame for the “new era” of NaVi.
Before the upcoming confrontation, we played with Team Spirit. The Dragons predictably edged out HR 2-0, preventing Solo from booking a trip to the Major back then.
Heroes HellRaisers
The most picked heroes by HellRaisers were: Enchantress (4 matches, 75% wins), Tusk (4 matches, 75% wins), Alchemist (3 matches, 100% wins), Crystal Maiden (3 matches, 100% wins), Legion Commander (3 matches, 100% wins).
In addition, they like to use meta carries, which Daxak feels good on. Of these, Naga Siren (6 matches, 50% wins), Sniper (5 matches, 60% wins) can be noted.
Darkside form
On the other side of the barricades will become Darkside. The Ramzes team will appear before us in the status of an outsider.
There is no particular confidence in the success of Darkside on the part of bookmakers. They give a coefficient in the region of 2.7 for such an outcome.
Almost two times behind HR synergizes with the state of affairs in the standings. Yes, the game makes a big difference.
Darkside line-up
Since the announcement, Darkside's roster has looked like something short-lived and temporary. In principle, it now becomes clear that this is the case.
Darkside Players
- Ramzes
- re1bl
- DkFogas
- RodjER
- SoNNeiKo
The team is not saved by the presence of big names in it, such as Ramzes or SoNNeiKo and RodjER. They play and look sluggish, and after the first round of the DPC, I'm waiting for the collapse of the team.
Darkside Performance
The only tournament where Darkside has been seen so far is DPC 2023: EEU Upper Division. The team played 1 game within the upper division.
Carried it out against NaVi. After a completely lost first map, Darkside, in particular RodjER on Tiny, turned the situation around and ended the series in their favor.
Later, Darkside played against Nemiga Gaming. The team won against their counterparts with a score of 2-0.
Darkside failed to build on their success after winning two series. In the third series, they quite unexpectedly lost to VP with a score of 0-2.
Then the leaders of the region from the BB Team were waiting for the Ramzes team. The “apostle's” company managed to pick up the first card by flying strongly in the score and networth, but lost the next two and the series at the same time.
The difficult calendar for the match against BB hasn't ended. In the fifth series, Team Spirit was waiting for them, and history repeated itself again: 2-1 not in favor of Darkside.
The saving straw could be the game against One Move, which, in a good way, Darkside should have won, but lost. Moreover, they lost devastatingly, with a score of 0-2, actually saying goodbye to all ambitions.
Heroes of Darkside
As part of the DPC Darkside, they play methodically without inventing the wheel. Picks Tiny (5 matches, 40% wins), Crystal Maiden (4 matches, 75% wins), Dark Seer (4 games, 75% wins), Leshrac (4 matches, 75% wins), Death Prophet (4 matches, 50 % wins).
History of personal confrontations
Previously, the teams did not play each other in head-to-head confrontations. The teams will play their first debut match within DPC 2023: EEU Upper Division.
Match outcome
After playing Darkside and One Move, you can not believe the success of the former against a stronger opponent. HR should close the series.
Ramzes and the company have already said goodbye to the opportunity to go to the Major, while HR, on the contrary, will be as determined as possible to win here. I think they will succeed.
Outcome: victory for HR.
