Prédiction de match: 9 Pandas - Gaimin Gladiators {{Dota 2
BetBoom DachaWelcome to EGamersWorld.
We continue to prepare for The International 2023 by watching top dota at BB Dacha. This is a $250,000 tournament that features teams that will play at The International 2023 in October.
Those teams include 9 Pandas and Gaimin Gladiators. Both teams have been performing well throughout the year and that is why their face-to-face meeting is causing The International heresy.
Also, their match The International is heresy as it is a battle of Eastern and Western Europe. It's a battle of "little brother and big brother", where Eastern Europe is trying to catch up with the more titled Western Europe.
Let's see if 9 Pandas will be able to overtake the two-time Major champion and prove their ability once again. Or we'll see a solid performance from the Gaimin Gladiators like we've seen for most of the year.
Let's go.

Let's open the match with an analysis of the Gaimin Gladiators' form. In this match, the three-time world champions play the number one side.
Bookmakers believe in the success of Gaimin Gladiators. The odds for their victory are at around 2.4.
It is easy to accept the pre-match state of affairs. One only needs to look at the team tags and their performance over the year to realise that Gaimin Gladiators will be in the lead.
At DPC 2023 Tour 1 WEU Division 1, the team took the top 2, which opened the way for them to The Lima Major 2023. The first Major season of the tournament was a rallying cry of triumph for the Gladiators. Gaimin Gladiators won the tournament without losing a single map in the championship play-offs.
The next DPC cycle in the home league ended even worse than the previous one. Then GG lost to tiebreaker for the top 2, but more than compensated for the failure with a performance on the international stage. Even twice.
On the eve of Long Copega DPC 2023: Tour 3, GG took the championship in two international arenas. They won the $1,000,000 DreamLeague S19 and The Berlin Major 2023, defending their status.
In the third round of the domestic league, Gaimin Gladiators were expectedly one of the top contenders to win the league, but failed to get the regional championship. At the end of DPC 2023: WEU Tour 3 GG took 2nd place, but they made it to the Major, and that's the main thing.

There was also DreamLeague Season 20, where in the first group stage GG felt like they played half-heartedly. Nevertheless, they made it to the next stage and then won the grand final.
After winning DreamLeague Season 20, Gaimin Gladiators won another title. This time it was the Major a Champions Cup again. At Bali Major 2023, GG were once again beaten by Team Liquid in the grand finals.
GG had high chances to finish all the big tournaments of the year with victories, but at Riyadh Masters 2023 they were unlucky. In the first round of play-offs "gladiators" fell to the lower play-offs grid, where at the stage of TOP-4 Ledge and Talon Esports and left the championship.

Opposing Gaimin Gladiators in their debut match at BB Dacha will be 9 Pandas. The Eastern European residents will play as the number two.
Bookmakers give a stupendous odds for bo2 for the outsider. It is at around 4.5.
The lag is obvious, because the game will be played against Gaimin Gladiators. However, this is definitely not a Nigma vs Beastcoast situation, so there are expectations for 9 Pandas.
9 Pandas started the year in third place in DPC 2023: EEU Division 1 Tour 1. However, at the first international tournament of the year - The Lima Major 2023 - while still under the banners of HellRaisers, playing against Stand-ip, they managed to get out of the group. \
In the second season of DPC, 9Pandas made it to the top 1, beating all direct competitors, namely Team Spirit and BB Team. In addition, 9Pandas surprised everyone at The Berlin Major 2023. In Germany, the Pandas made it to the Top 3, which was the best result for the region in a year.
The third DPC cycle of 9Pandas ended with qualification to the last Major of the season - The Bali Major 2023 - with a third-place finish in the home league. Next up was the DreamLeague S20

All year long the team has been gaining in performance and this applies primarily to the international scene. At DreamLeague S20 it was top 7, and at Bali Major 2023 it was top 6.

Predicted result of 9 Pandas - Gaimin Gladiators match at BB Dacha
This match should be the key match of Group B at BB Dacha. I expect a colourful fight with one card in the Pandas' asset. Bo2 will contribute to this, and the aggressive style of 9 Pandas will help them beat Gaimin Gladiators at least on one card in the opening match.
Bottom line: +1.5 on 9 Pandas.
9 Pandas is the 7th team in the world ranking. DPC CIS region in the first round finished in 3rd place, missing Spirit and BB. At Lima Major the guys take only a modest 9th-12th place. They gather their strength and finish the second round of DPC already on the 1st place, not missing anyone in front of them. DreamLeague, however, is not set at all and the organisation leaves the tournament with 13th-14th position. Berlin Major, on the other hand, is much more pleasant. The team manages to get to the top 3, missing only Liquid and GG. The 3rd round was not quite successful. They are on the 3rd position, but they still made it to the TI, so it's not critical. DreamLeague S20 is not bad or good, finishing in 7th place. At the Bali Major they took the top 6, a good result.
Gaimin Gladiators are the 2nd team of the world ranking. The first round DPC finish in 2nd place, passing Team Liquid in front of them. Lima Major finished in 1st place, confidently beating Liquid in the grand final 3:0, but at that time TL had a replacement. According to the same trend and in the second round of DPC GG cede the leading position to Liquid, passing in front of them and Tundra. 3rd place. A similar situation to the previous major catches up with us at Dreamleague, where in a tough grand final GG defeated Liquid with the score 3:2. The same situation awaited us at Berlin Major. Liquid GG Grand Final, from which GG came out victorious. The 3rd round DPC had a rest, but it didn't prevent them from taking the 2nd place at the end of it. DreamLeague S20 was no exception to the team's winning ways. They won the tournament. The traditions of Bali Major have not changed, where the team once again takes the 1st place.
For some reason there is absolutely no faith in the pandas. Perhaps in my eyes GG is much stronger. I believe in their victory more than even a draw.
I'm a prognosticator, that's what I do for a living. I devote all my time to it. I have no other interests.
I have been doing my activity for quite a long time and have achieved some success in it. Whether to believe me or not is up to everyone. But why not give it a try? Maybe you like this kind of life too!
Prediction: GG wins!
