Team Spirit, after a good start at DreamLeague Season 22, failed to secure their place at the top of Group B. On the second game day, the Dragons lost to Xtreme Gaming (0:2) and drew with Team Secret (1:1). The second match was a complete surprise for the entire cybersports community.
Against the Chinese collective on two maps, the team lost the lines and, after that, could not stop Xtreme Gaming. However, we can't say that the drafts were lost - it was rather the individual performance of the Dragons that let them down. Only on the last map against Team Secret, the spectators could see those players who won TI12 - Team Spirit was able to then recover after the lines and broke the throne in less than half an hour of game time.
However, in future encounters, the Dragons' opponents are much lower in the level of play. In such passing matches, Team Spirit must play to their full potential in order to get the maximum amount of points. Despite the fact that their current opponent is off to a good start in Group A, Team Silent has a positive experience against American teams.
Shopify Rebellion
Arteezy's new squad is surprisingly second in Group A with six wins and two losses. The two Wo2s against 1win and Team Secret were 2:0 victories, while Tundra Esports and Aurora were drawn against each other.
In 2023, Arteezy was able to achieve his best results at DreamLeague tournaments. In the nineteenth season, Shopify Rebellion took third place, and in the twenty-first season, they played in the grand finals against Team Spirit (though they lost). Apparently, the online tournament atmosphere has a positive effect on Arthur's performance, as he is now in the top 5 players in terms of KDA (9.13), while midranger Yopaj is second in terms of this indicator (12.7). The good stats come from the lack of unnecessary deaths - carry and mider for two die 3.5 times per map on average.
Shopify Rebellion's wins can only be explained by the instability of their opponents. Tundra Esports lost their main offliner before the match and had to play with a replacement, while 1win was not ready to compete at such a high level. But the toughest tests remained ahead for Arteezy and company.
Expert Betting Tips
Arteezy last won a map against Team Spirit in September 2023, and since then, has gone dry in the DreamLeague Season 21 Grand Finals and the group stage of The International 12. Shopify Rebellion is not playing a perfect game at this tournament but is benefiting from numerous gifts from its opponents. Team Spirit has a strong motivation to take this series 2:0 and hardly wants to lose points.
