Prédiction de match: Elephant.4AM - RNG {{Dota 2

In the second DPC 2021 regular season, RNG and Elephant.4AM will play in China. A very solid match awaits us.

Both teams are serious. Elephant.4AM was already out of work in the first season and now they need to get blood from their nose in the second major.

The situation is almost the same for RNG, with the amendment that the latter played in the lower division in the first season. The time has come to prove your worth among the top Chinese clubs.

Form Elephant.4AM

Let's start the analysis with the team to which we returned an uncounted number of times in the first season and will come back the same number of times in the second. Chinese Superstars - Elephant.4AM.

Not so superstars, though. We remember very well the Elephant's performance during the first DCP season and their attempts at tournaments outside the Valve rating system.

It was clearly not the level of the team claiming the title of the strongest team in China. Now Elephant needs to be as serious about the regular season as possible.

Results of last 5 matches Elephant.4AM

• Defeat Team Aster 2-1
• Lost to EHOME 0-2
• Lost to EHOME 0-2
• Victory over RNG with a score of 2-1
• Defeat Team MagMa 2-0

Fortunately, recently the statistics of Maybe and the company are slowly leveling off. Perhaps this was facilitated by rOtK, who became the team's coach on March 31.

RNG form

Elephant.4AM will face ambitious RNGs. Unlike Elephant, they are doing much more stable.

Yes, the team in the first season ended up overboard in the title division, but despite this it continued to consistently show a good game and took 2nd place in the lower division, thereby getting a slot in the TOP-8 of China. RNGs showed themselves quite well outside the regular DPC season, when they fought at i-League 2021 with the same Elephant and EHOME.

Results of last 5 matches RNG

• Defeat Team MagMa 2-0
• Lose from Elephant.4AM with a score of 1-2
• Lost to EHOME with a score of 1-2
• Defeat EHOME 2-0
• Defeat Sparking Arrow Gaming 2-0

Overall, the stats look pretty good considering there is a dry win over EHOME and a fight in lost matches. But what is more important is that RNG have already held 2 official meetings on the new patch and won both 2-0, which was not noticed for Elephant.

Personal meeting history

Like most Chinese teams, the history of RNG and Elephant head-to-head meetings is long. We, as always, are interested in just the last few matches.

For example, in the last 5 meetings, Elephant.4AM won 4 times and only 1 RNG.

Match outcome

Although I believe in the Elephant's nominal advantage, this time I will go against the bookmakers. The latest RNG games show that the team has adapted well to the new realities of Dota and can definitely impose a fight, and ultimately defeat Elephant.

Bottom line: A shaky RNG win.
