DeathBringer Gaming will come up against Winning Gaming in their last match of the China Hope Series #2 group stage on Friday evening.
DeathBringer Gaming showed a lot of grit lately in their H-CUP Season matches against Keen Gaming and Team Aster.
Their favorite carries are Anti-Mage and they showed no fear of playing against Phantom Assassin as well.
They never intended to ban Phantom Assassin before taking Anti-Mage and we’re wondering how much confidence they have in their Anti-Mage, Phantom Assassin, who was always able to make a turnaround in team fight with few lucky critical hits against Anti Mage. This is the reason Phantom Assassin in the strongest carry in this patch.

Winning Gaming only has two points after playing four matches against Eclipse, Aurora Epsort Club, Team Serenity and Keen Gaming Luminous.
Their chance of making it into Playoffs is very small because DeathBringer Gaming and Team Serenity most likely will be taking the seat into winner bracket, while Keen Gaming.Luminous will be advancing into the lower bracket if there is no huge upset.
From the draft of Winning Gaming shown in their group stage matches, we could not find any favourite carry from them.
DeathBringer Gaming should not have any problem taking down Winning Gaming 2-0 in this match-up.
The only thing we need to focus before we place our bet in this match is how many points DeathBringer Gaming obtained from their match-up against Eclipse, Aurora Esport Club, and Team Serenity before this.
After analysing the drafting abilities and most recent performance shown by both squads, we give DeathBringer Gaming a 90% chance to win this match-up 2-0.
If DeathBringer Gaming still need two points to secure their slot into the winner’s bracket, our recommendation is to go low and bet on DeathBringer Gaming to win the game 2-0 at better than $1.40 at GG Bet.
We recommend placing your bet after the match-up between DeathBringer Gaming and Team Serenity has a result and to skip if DeathBringer Gaming has secured enough points to seat in the top 2 of Group B.
]]>IamPoint Club (IP) will play their last match in the group stage of The China Hope Series #2 when they take on For The Dream on Friday night.
IP currently holds six points in Group A and are in second place, while For The Dream have 5 points, 1 point behind of them.
This match is very crucial to both teams. IamPoint Club must get two points in order to secure one of the slots in the winner’s bracket.

For The Dream still have another chance to score that point in their match against MAX.Y after this match.
For The Dream were brave in their recent most performance, but still lost to EHOME in a 3-2 thriller.
For The Dream’s performance in ESL One Katowice 2019 China Qualifier was fascinating because their draft and performance showed no mercy towards Royal Never Give Up and Team Root.
For The Dream took down both teams 2-0 and unexpectedly swept out Team Root’s Magnus and Phantom Assassin picks in game one. Team Root was thought to be a better team, however, For The Dream crushed them in the laning phase and continued to expand their map control with those advantages they gained in early stage of the game.
Phantom Assassin from Team Root only had a golds per minute of 550 thanks to the constant harassment caused by Outworld Destroyer from For The Dream.
Looking through the draft of late from IP, they certainly drafted Phantom Assassin and Anti-Mage a lot in their professional matches in H-CUP Season 11.
Their draft illustrated the meta of the patch for public games, if they unable to display some secret strategy or draft in this upcoming match-up. They should be no match against For The Dream because For The Dream able to upset against Team Root after Team Root drafted the strongest meta- Phantom Assassin and Magnus.
After analysing the drafting abilities and recent performance of both squads, we give For The Dream a 75% chance to win 2-0 in this match-up.
Our recommendation is to go medium and bet on For The Dream to win 2-0 at better than $2.03 at GG Bet.
]]>DeathBringer Gaming will be playing four best-of-two series matches in group stage today, starting with an intriguing battle against Team Serenity in the China Hope Series #2.
DeathBringer Gaming currently holds 1 point in this group stage from their match against Keen Gaming. Luminous two days ago.
That particular result was disappointing because DeathBringer Gaming is the strongest team in Group B, while Keen Gaming. Luminous was thought not to be up to their standard.
DeathBringer Gaming’s performance in H-CUP Season 11 playoffs were incredible, taking down Keen Gaming and Team Aster with a 2-0 whitewash.

DeathBringer Gaming was confident enough to pick Anti-Mage in their second picking phase in game one, leaving Keen Gaming to have three picks reacting and countering that pick.
Keen Gaming utilized the picks by spamming disable heroes Sand King, Rubbick and Kunkka, trying to control Anti-Mage by surprise ganking him with chain stunning.
However, DeathBringer had a good laning phase in bottom lane, they put Puck and Skywrath Mage, both long range magic dealer harassed the carry from enemy team.
In order to recover from that situation, Keen Gaming had to let Faceless Void farm while Anti-Mage had the same room to farm.
That was a bad decision, because Anti-Mage was able to farm faster than Faceless Void, while Anti-Mage was unstoppable when he purchased Battlefury, Manta Style and the Butterfly by 24-minute mark.
The match featured Anti-Mage with a golds per minute up to 889. Anti-Mage had twenty kills, only two deaths and twelve assists by the end of the game.
DeathBringer Gaming drafted Anti Mage in three out of they four games they played against Team Aster and Keen Gaming in H-CUP Season 11 playoffs. The only match they did not manage to pick it was because Team Aster banned the hero in drafting phase.
Despite that, DeathBringer Gaming still won the game by drafting Sven as their carry.
There is a lot of homework Team Serenity has to do in order to win against DeathBringer Gaming, however we guess Team Serenity will not be analysing the draft of DeathBringer Gaming because this match is meaningless to them. They secured the upper bracket seat in playoffs of The China Hope Series #2, since they have 8 points in Group B.
After analysing the drafting abilities and current score in Group B of both squads, we give DeathBringer Gaming a 80% chance to win this match-up 2-0.
Our recommendation is to go medium and bet on DeathBringer Gaming to win the game 2-0 at better than $5.00 at GG Bet.
]]>The two top teams of Group B — Keen Gaming.Luminous and Team Serenity — will battle it out on Wednesday in this spicy The China Hope Series #2 match-up.
The game represents an opportunity for Keen Gaming.Luminous to steal first place from Team Serenity.
As DeathBringer Gaming (DBG) has yet to start their tournament, DBG has zero points in Group B for now, however, we predict that DBG will take one of the top two slots in Group B, making this game all the more important.

Throughout the matches Team Serenity played against Eclipse and Aurora Esport Club yesterday, they displayed a versatility of carry heroes including Faceless Void, Templar Assassin, Ember Spirit, Anti-Mage, Tiny and Luna.
Their draft was not extraordinary in combo with each other, however, their draft was able to help them take advantage from the early phase of the game, which they prolonged the advantage they created by getting kills and roaming with better items.
In the most recent draft from Keen Gaming.Luminous, they showed a different tactic. They drafted Outworld Destroyer, Anti-Mage and Magnus a lot in their match-up against Aurora Esport Club, Eclipse and Winning Gaming.
Banning Magnus and stealing/banning Outworld Destroyer are the only strategy Team Serenity need to do in order to increase their chance to win.
Keen Gaming.Luminous not only suffered disadvantages in drafting against Team Serenity, the individual talent shown from both teams also showed that Team Serenity is a better team.
Also, Keen Gaming.Luminous was only able to grab one score from Aurora Esport Club and Eclipse, while Team Serenity stole two scores from them. Chain Analysis is not the best measurement for the outcome of the match-up, however, taking it as a reference is a good choice.
After analysing the drafting abilities and individual skill shown from both teams, we give Team Serenity a 70% chance to win this match-up 2-0.
Considering Team Serenity had better result in chain analysis, our recommendation is to go high and bet on Team Serenity to win the game 2-0 at better than $1.50 at GG Bet.
]]>Two formidable Dota 2 squads will go head-to-head in a heated all-Chinese clash in The China Hope Series #2 when For The Dream takes on IG Vitality.
While both squads have been hovering around an average tier 2 level of play lately, this match could shape Group A and the tournament’s winner bracket.
For The Dream currently sits clear atop Group A, while IG.V will be starting their first match against For The Team later today.
For The Team played against Keen Gaming and Avalon yesterday and got one point from Keen Gaming while taking down Avalon 2-0.

From their draft in those contests, we could see they were quite familiar with Outworld Destroyer and drafted that hero in three games out of the four they played.
We also noticed that Brewmaster was a must pick for For The Dream whenever they drafted Outworld Destroyer.
Brewmaster is able to cyclone enemy heroes up in the air for a duration of six seconds, while Outworld Destroyed can also imprison enemy hero for four seconds. Their utilization of decreasing opponent heroes and creating a better number of armies in team fights temporarily was disaster to their enemies.
IG.V’s most recent professional match-up was against Team Root in the Dota 2 Winter Cup 4 days ago. Team Root swept them out of the tournament in the semi-finals in a 2-0 whitewash.
IG.V did not draft well, considering they picked Leshrac in game 2 as a core, which is rare to see in a professional match-up — a bold pick that cost them the game.
After analysing the drafting abilities and recent performance of both squads, we give For The Dream a 70% chance to win this match-up 2-0.
Our recommendation is to go medium and bet on Keen Gaming to win the game 2-0 at better than $2.40 at GG Bet.
]]>Keen Gaming will fight it out against Avalon in the fourth Group A match in The China Hope Series #2.
Keen Gaming currently stands in the top two in Group A, while Avalon Gaming sits in fourth with its own struggles.
This match is an important one for both teams, that still both have ambitions of advancing to the tournament’s winner bracket.
Looking at the recent drafting of both sides, Keen Gaming did not have a favourite carry and played a lot of different heroes such as Phantom Assassin, Faceless Void and Medusa in their other group stage matches.

For their core heroes, they drafted Outworld Destroyer quite a lot. This hero nerfed several times since patch 7.20 to patch 7.20e, however 荧 is strong using the hero. His mana control was quite good. Never running out of mana is an important step for this hero to withstand laning phase and team fight in early phase of the game.
Watching Avalon’s drafting against IamPoint Club and ForTheDream, it was clear they relied on Phantom Assassin, but their game play was disappointing.
They drafted the dream combo picks, Phantom Assassin and Magnus, in game 1 against ForTheDream yesterday, but their inability to make waves in the team fight allowed ForTheDream to crush Phantom Assassin before the 15-minute mark.
Comparing the game play skill from both squads, Keen Gaming certainly has the best individual talent.
Old Chicken, 荧, Eleven and Kaka from Keen Gaming are all players that are able to play a lot of heroes and have fast reaction/game sense when it comes to team fighting.
After running our eye through the drafting abilities and individual skills from both squads, we give Keen Gaming a 80% chance to win this match-up 2-0.
Our recommendation is to go low and bet on Keen Gaming to win the game 2-0 at better than $1.38 at GG Bet.
