Prédiction de match: Evil Geniuses - Gaimin Gladiators {{Dota 2
The Berlin Major 2023 ESL - Group StageHello on EGamersWorld.
We continue to take apart the group stage of The Berlin Major 2023 with a betting tee on Gaimin Gladiators vs Evil Geniuses in their debut game at the tournament.
The Group A representatives will play in the first leg, and we'll talk about what to expect from the game. On the menu is a round-up of the teams' performance, their level of play in the domestic leagues and on the international stage.
Let's go.
Gaimin Gladiators uniforms
Let's open up the match review with an analysis of the Gaimin Gladiators fixtures. The reigning Major champions will play here as favourites with odds of around 2.1 to win.
Such a state of affairs is not in question. The mere fact that they won the Lima Major 2023 makes them a contender to win the match, and in the tournament as a whole, but the Gladiators are strong in fact.
The team has twice finished in the top-3 at the DPC 2023, which is already a credit to Europe for remaining the strongest region for the 2023 season. The 2023 Lima Major championships have already been mentioned, but we can add to that the total domination of the tournament, where even top teams like Liquid were unable to oppose the Gladiators.
Another argument in favour of GG is its stable line-up. Unlike some of the participants in The Berlin Major 2023, GG will seem to be without replacements, which adds to their points.
- Gaimin Gladiators: dyrachyo, Quinn, Ace, tOfu, Seleri .
The squad feels great in tournaments of all sizes. We can see this in the DPC, as well as outside of it, at larger events.
For example, GG take part in DreamLeague S19 (at the time of writing the betting tournament GG have reached the play-offs of the tournament). GG looked confident throughout all stages of the big $1,000,000 championship: They won their subgroup with a 10-4 statistic and finished in the top 4 of the second stage, guaranteeing themselves a place in the play-offs.
Most popular Gaimin Gladiators characters
Topping the list of most popular characters is Disruptor. The hero has appeared in spades 6 times and has a 100% winning percentage.
Next comes Ember Spirit (5 games, 80% wins), Terrorblade (4 games, 100% wins), Undying (4 games, 100% wins), Doom (4 games, 100% wins), Rubick (4 games, 75% wins).
If you're ready to believe in Gaimin Gladiators' continued dominance in the new patch (to be released on April 20), pick them as the series winner at odds in the region of 2.

Evil Geniuses form
We continue our match review with an analysis of Evil Geniuses' playing form. In this match, they will have to play the number two and the odds are 5.7 to win the pre-match.
If Gaimin Gladiators earned their status as favorites deservedly, showing the highest level of play, the Evil Geniuses are exactly the same in the role of catch-up.
The team is twice top-two in South America, but cannot match their future rivals in terms of results on the international stage. It's not all bad there, though.
At the Lima Major 2023 Evil Geniuses finished in top 6, one of the best results for the club in recent years. They reached this top spot thanks to a solid roster of top Peruvian players.
- Evil Geniuses roster: Pakazs, Chris Luck, Wisper, Matthew, Pandaboo .
With this line-up EG have been playing all year and there is every reason to believe they will play at The Berlin Major 2023. At least as of now there are no rumours about possible rosters.
However, the roster, although stable in terms of time under one wing, is not the most stable in terms of playing aspects. Some characters have had "blackouts" that were particularly evident in DreamLeague S19.
Within DL S19, EG showed an "average game". If in the first stage they managed to play 10-4 in the group and pass on, then with the beginning of the bo3 matches the performance dropped, and the team's standard headliners, like Pakazs, started to perform chaotically.
Evil Geniuses' most chosen heroes
Beastmaster and Death Prophet remain at the top of Evil Geniuses' most popular heroes. Both heroes are taken 8 times each and have a good 75% win rate.
After DP and Primal Beast comes Leshrac, and he is most often played in the third position. He has appeared 6 times and has a 66% win rate.
In addition he's picked Marci (5 matches, 60% wins), Templar Assassin (4 matches, 100% wins), and Jakiro (4 matches, 100% win).
If you are ready to believe in the success of the Peruvians in the new patch - bet on the Evil Geniuses victory at odds of 5.7. In favour of such a bet, the history of personal meetings, where EG beat GG at The Lima Major 2023, and also drew in the first group stage of DreamLeague S19.
Predicted result of the Gaimin Gladiators vs Evil Geniuses match
Given the format of the meeting bo2, the fact of the first match in the tournament, and also the new patch, it is very difficult to choose a winner of the match. I think here we can expect one match from Evil Geniuses.
In one of the post-match interviews at The International, Seleri from GG said that they will need a lot of time to adapt to the new patch, and that should play to their opponents' advantage. EG may try to crush GG and squeeze at least a map.
Bottom line: +1.5 on Evil Geniuses.
Evil Geniuses is the 9th team in the world rankings. Both DPC rounds only manage to finish in 2nd place, as there is absolutely no way to beat beastcoast, but the team is obviously stronger than bc, given the results of the Lima Major. EG managed to take the 5th-6th position there, though if they hadn't made any stupid mistakes, they could have got higher. Nevertheless, the result is still decent. Dreamleague Season 19 was slightly worse, ending up in 7th place.
The Gaimin Gladiators are the 1st team in the world rankings. The DPC finish the first round in 2nd place, before Team Liquid. In the Lima Major the boys finished in the 1st place, having beaten Liquid in the Grand Final 3-0, though at that moment TL had a substitute. By the same token, in the second round of the DPC GGs yield the leading position to Liquid, incidentally giving way to Tundra as well. 3rd place. A similar situation to the previous major caught up with us at Dreamleague, where in a hard-fought Grand Final GG beat Liquid 3-2. A very confident performance by the team shows us. If the patch doesn't knock them out, they have every chance for this tournament as well.
It is not yet clear how the patch will affect the teams, but GG already have some experience, and even against one of the strongest teams in the world. This will be EG's debut in the new patch, so I'll still believe in a win for the favourite. They seem very strong.
I'm a betting man, live for this. I devote all my time to it. No other interests.
I have been in business for a long time and have had some success with it. Believe it or not, it's up to everyone. But why not give it a try? Maybe you will like this life too!
