Here are our picks for Tundra Esports vs Brame and OG vs Entity, with the best Dota 2 betting odds courtesy of the best esports betting sites online.

Brame enter their final match of the tour with a 2-4 record, which sits them in a tied-sixth spot, just above Entity and the relegation line. The Greeks are not in a perfect spot, but they have been getting wins they needed and are now just one short of securing another tour in the big league. However, even if Brame lose, Entity would need to defeat OG to eliminate Giorgos “SsaSpartan” Giannakopoulos and co. form the upper-division.

Tundra Esports could not deliver their last two outings against Team Liquid (1-2) and Gaimin Gladiators (1-2), which lost them an excellent opportunity to pass Team Secret in the standings and secure an early ticket for the Stockholm Major. But even though Tundra are now tied with Secret in fourth, Secret have no more games to play, meaning that Tundra only need to win this match, and they’re through.

Brame will want to win, so we expect a better showing from them; however, that’s not enough for us to side against Tundra. Admittedly, they weren’t too impressive in their last two outings, but Tundra are significantly stronger than Brame and should get it done. A three-map series is a possibility, so Tundra on the moneyline at $1.53 is the way to go.

Prediction: Tundra Esports to win – -188.68 @ BetOnline

Entity went 1-1 over the last week. They picked up a crucial win against Nigma Galaxy (2-0) but then suffered a close defeat against Team Secret (1-2) on Saturday, although we would argue that Entity should have won that series.

OG have been playing exceptionally well over the last month – like Europe’s strongest Dota 2 esports team. They enter this bout on a run of three 2-0 victories against Tundra Esports, Gamin Gladiators and Brame, and they’ve already demolished Nigma Galaxy (2-0) in the opening week.

With the form OG have been showing, it’s very tough to doubt them, and even though Entity are no slouches, we have no reason t believe they can win a map, let alone the series against the current hottest team in the Western European DPC.

?Tundra Esports won their tournament opener against Hellbear Smashers 2-1, but it wasn’t a clean victory. Hellbear took the series lead and came very close to securing the win, but a few silly mistakes, poor fights, and inferior team compositions allowed Tundra to come away victorious.

Brame lost their opening match of the tournament 0-2 against OG, but they held on surprisingly well and even led by 5.3k gold at 25 minutes on map one before an unfortunate team fight flipped the game upside down. Even in game two, Brame came back from a 4.2k gold deficit but were unable to match OG’s individual quality.

Tundra might have won in their last outing, but it seemed more like Hellbear Smashers losing rather than Tundra winning. While Brame are not a perfect team by any means, they looked good enough on Tuesday for us to believe they can steal at least one map.

?Betting against Team Secret throughout 2020 would have burned a massive hole in your wallet, but doing so during the recent ONE Esports Singapore Major would have proved to be very profitable. Regarded as the strongest European Dota 2 team, Secret failed to step up in the first Dota 2 Major of the year, losing two out of three bouts to finish fourth.

Due to how the seeding worked, Secret played only three games: a 1-2 loss against PSG.LGD, a 2-1 win over OB Esports x Neon, and a 0-2 loss against the eventual champions, Invictus Gaming. Team Nigma’s run at the Singapore Major was rather short-lived and largely disappointing as they managed only one draw against Vici Gaming (1-1) and four 0-2 losses against Team Liquid, PSG.LGD, AS Monaco Gambit, and T1.

Although Secret showed some cracks earlier this month, they’re still a class above Nigma, who are on a 2-1-7 run since the start of February. Clement “Puppey” Ivanov and co. have not lost against Nigma in any of their last six meetings and are 13-3 up in the head-to-head stakes since their first clash in December 2019. There is a reason why the esports bookmakers have priced Team Secret as such short favourites.

?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.

?This is a must-win match for both High Coast Esports and VP.Prodigy, as both are winless this tournament and sit only one loss away from elimination. High Coast’s two losses came against Winstrike (0-2) and Tundra Esports (1-2), while VP.Prodigy had to admit defeat to Vikin.gg (0-2) and Dota Team (1-2).

Neither side has looked very good of late, so it is weird to see such a big gap in the odds at esports betting sites. VP.Prodigy might field an unproven roster, but we can’t ignore their solid run through the lower division of ESL One CIS Online Season 1 last month where they went toe-to-toe with teams much stronger than HCE.

VP.Prodigy might be a weaker team overall, but they should steal at least one map.

?Brame enter this match on the heels of two impressive wins against HellRaisers and Team Unique, which we should value slightly higher than Team Spirit’s triumphs against Dota Team and Winstrike. But even though Brame had to face tougher teams in those bouts, that does not necessarily mean they are stronger than Spirit.

Brame are 15-1-5 since the start of February, which might look good on paper, but they have not faced any tough opponents. Team Spirit are 4-2 across the last month and 8-0-13 in their last 21 outings, but they have had to play the likes of Natus Vincere, Team Secret and Virtus.pro.

We won’t overcomplicate it. Team Spirit are the stronger team and shouldn’t lose games like this one.
