The Dragons started ESL One Birmingham 2024 with the usual ties. The team won one map each in two series against Heroic and Gaimin Gladiators, steadily drawing with their opponents. Considering that the group stage in Birmingham will be short, the question of making the playoffs should be decided already in this meeting.
Team Spirit's performance at the tournament shows a completely familiar game. Or rather, it should be specified right away: the usual game in the spring period. Some things work well, some things fall out of hand, and such fluctuations are possible within one series. A lot hangs on Collapse — Mohammed didn't shine statistically but was a valuable player.
The encounters between Team Spirit and Xtreme Gaming in 2024 hold a special significance. Ame and XinQ, key players of Xtreme Gaming, faced off against the Dragons in the first final of The International. Yatoro holds Ame's game in high regard. Based on their H2H stats, the Chinese team has proven to be a formidable opponent for Team Spirit. However, the LAN in Birmingham marks the last opportunity for the Miposhka team to compete before the Riyadh Masters 2024. To secure a spot in Dubai, they must aim for a high rank in this tournament. The path to victory at ESL One Birmingham 2024 should begin with this match.
Xtreme Gaming
Xtreme Gaming currently shares the title of the best team of 2024 with Team Falcons. They have won at the Elite League and the Games of the Future, as well as a top-3 DreamLeague Season 22. They will likely play at the Riyadh Masters 2024, as the team is in second place in the EPT rankings and has built up a huge lead over the chasing group.
In Birmingham, Xtreme Gaming had a terrible start - two losses to OG and Heroic (0:2 each). The reasons are hard to explain, but two maps were lost after a minimal advantage. The Chinese took uncomfortable fights and crashes on the first game day. Ame couldn't even get a KDA 2 average per map, and along with Dy, he closes in on the ESL One Birmingham 2024 individual rankings. Xtreme Gaming's drafts are pretty much unchanged from Elite League, but they couldn't adapt to the unconventional approaches from Heroic and OG.
Xtreme Gaming has a 0-4 balance in Group B. Failing to beat Team Spirit will make returning to the race for a slot even harder. The Chinese lost many points on the first game day, and now every series counts. However, this particular confrontation is convenient for Ame and company.
Expert Betting Tips
The Chinese are going for the win since there's no other way back into the playoff race. But Team Spirit isn't as doomed as in the Elite League. It'll be a tough series for the Dragons, but they'll take one map.
