?Team Secret suffered a shock 0-2 loss against Team Nigma on Thursday to make it three defeats in their last four outings. To put that into perspective, Secret have lost almost half as many games in the last week as they did from January to October last year.

Hellbear Smashers haven’t achieved anything of note since January, but that doesn’t mean they should be priced as high as +637 here. Not only have Secret looked very shaky of late, Smashers also field former Secret carry Marcus “Ace” Hoelgaard, which should help them in forging the right strategy.

A win for Hellbear Smashers doesn’t seem likely, but we’re ready to take a shot on the outsiders to win at least one map.

?Alliance’s sole match at DreamLeague Season 15 to date happened last Wednesday when they reverse swept Team Liquid to improve their head-to-head record to 2-1-0. That was their first decent showing in a while, having ended the ONE Esports Singapore Major with three losses and four draws.

OG demolished Brame 2-0 in the tournament opener, largely thanks to the performances of returning superstar Anathan “ana” Pham. He ended the series with a combined score of 26/4/19, emerging as OG’s best player.

OG look like a completely different team with ana on the roster, but punters must not overreact to a victory against a weak team such as Brame. OG still have some fundamental issues to work on, and until we see them perform well against Europe’s elite teams, we will continue to believe they can drop a map against Alliance.

?Tundra are far from one of the elite European Dota 2 teams, but they field a very competitive roster which became that much stronger last week when they added Jingjun “Sneyking” Wu as a replacement for Malthe “Biver” Winther. The problem we have with that change is that Tundra have yet to play an official match with Sneyking, so it’s hard to say how will he synergise with his new teammates.

Hellbear Smashers haven’t made any roster changes since they came together in January, although they decided to part ways with coach Robson “TeaGuvnor” Merritt last week. It remains to be seen whether his departure will negatively affect the team, but with veteran Marcus “Ace” Hoelgaard on the roster, TeaGuvnor’s departure shouldn’t change much.

Tundra are the stronger team on paper, but we don’t believe they should be priced as low as they are. Hellbear have done well against teams of a similar calibre, and since they will be facing a ring-rusty opponent, they should do enough to win at least one map.

?OG haven’t been doing too well this season, but things are looking up now that Anathan “ana” Pham is back on the team. The Australian Dota 2 legend’s return gives the European organisation a much-needed boost that should see them climb up the Dota Pro Circuit (DPC) ladder.

Still, that news does not change the fact that OG are a much stronger team than Brame. While it’s fair to say Brame would have had a better chance to cause some damage had OG fielded their old roster, their odds of doing so are much slimmer now.

Ana and OG have a lot of catching up to do, having won only 50 DPC points halfway through the season, but one thing we know is that OG step up when it matters. This should be an easy 2-0 for the two-time The International champions.
