Brame vs Khan: Who had a good break?

Breaks on the professional scene didn’t last long. They no sooner had fans forgotten the bright matches of The International 10, as Dota 2 Champions League Season 5 gives fans a new spectacle in eSports. The tournament takes place from November 8 to 28. Ten teams from Europe and the CIS will compete for the $50,000 prize pool.

On November 9, Brame and Khan will play their match in Dota 2 Champions League Season 5. We’ll find out very soon which team was more productive during the month-long break and will be able to pick up an important victory.

Brame: A disappointing end to the season

Brame have not made any changes to their roster since the end of the season. The team finished the last tournament (Dota 2 Champions League Season 4) in 5th-6th place. In their last match, the European side lost to the representatives of Khan 0-2. In that match, the struggle did not work. The team from the CIS looked noticeably stronger.

And given that Brame has not yet beaten Khan in head-to-head encounters, it is not quite clear why the bookmakers have their preference for the European team. After the break, Brame lost three of their last four matches and ended the season, not in the best mood. Nevertheless, the team had time to prepare and correct the mistakes of previous matches.

Khan: Looking like favourites

Khan, unlike their opponents today, made a couple of changes to their squad. The main change, of course, is Pikachu. The squad from the CIS also hasn’t played a single match since the break, but in contrast, Brame will have time to play one official game scheduled for November 8. This should give Khan a slight advantage, as they will have time to feel the spirit of the competitive scene, feel the nerve of an official match, and test the newcomers to the squad in action. The team finished fourth in the Dota 2 Champions League last season. That’s a good result, especially considering that the team only passed the leaders of the Dota 2 scene ahead of themselves. I think the bookmakers are underestimating Khan, putting Brame as the favourite for this match, which can be taken advantage of.

Expert Betting Tips

Khan look like a favorite for the upcoming match. The team has already beaten Brame twice and should not interrupt this tradition. The bookmakers are offering odds of 2.50 for Khan to win, which looks like a good option. You can also take Total Over 2.5 maps for odds of 1.90 or Khan’s 2-1 win for odds of 4.50.
