Gladiators vs Entity Gaming Prediction: Pure joins the fray

Season three of the Dota Pro Circuit 2021/22 is beginning for Western Europe. Once again, the region's eight strongest teams will battle it out for DPC points and slots in the upcoming major. The prize money rules are well known. Eight teams from the first division will compete for $205,000, with the second division picking up $75,000. The joy of your favorite teams' victories, incredible highlights, and a barrage of emotions - this and much more awaits all Dota 2 fans in the coming weeks. The tournament will take place from June 7 to July 13.

On June 7, Gladiators and Entity Gaming will play their opening match in the group stage of Dota Pro Circuit 2021/22 for Western Europe. We will soon find out which team will be stronger.

The Gladiators had a good run at the ESL One Stockholm Dota Major 2022. The boys managed to take fourth place, which looks like a good result. Nevertheless, at the Major, the team beat teams from Southeast Asia for the most part. It's one of the weaker regions, where teams often play unstable. T1 currently does not even show 50% of the form of past seasons. Fnatic has not been serious contenders for a long time, and beastcoast from South America has never even been serious contenders. Therefore, we should not overestimate that result just yet. The team does not always lack the stability of the carry, which makes a lot of mistakes, makes very strange muves, and if BOOM's game does not go, it is unlikely to drag the map. Of course, Gladiators are favorites for the upcoming match, but it's hard to believe that the team will be able to close the match with a 2-0 score. Entity Gaming constantly gives trouble in face-to-face matches. This encounter should be no exception.

Entity Gaming was able to retain a slot in the first division. The team has won two out of seven matches, allowing them to qualify for the re-match. In them, the team took on Brame with no problems, winning 2-0. Last season, the team looked great. They often swept away the division favorites and even snatched a couple of wins. But now Entity Gaming has had to part with their carry who got picked up by Team Secret. How Pure will fit into the team is still unclear, but there should be plenty of motivation for this player. As for the upcoming match, it is unclear what form the favorite will approach. Entity Gaming will definitely have a chance of winning the map. Besides, the boys have already beaten Gladiators in face-to-face meetings. Yes, that was at the Dota 2 Champions League, where the Gladiators may not have given 100%, but in the group stage of Dota Pro Circuit 2021/22, Entity Gaming was able to win a map where motivation was not an issue. Therefore, we should expect a hard-fought game with as many maps as possible in the opening match.

The Gladiators are a more talented team, but they might not play their best after the Majors' opening match. And in face-to-face encounters before, the guys have always had problems with Entity Gaming. I don't think the Gladiators will win easily this time. The bookmakers offer 2.26 on Total Over 2.5 maps, which looks like a good option.
