Match Prediction: BetBoom Team - Team Falcons | Dota 2

Welcome to EGamersWorld.

We are approaching the final group stage of DreamLeague Season 22. We continue to talk about Group A, where the teams have two series left to play.

One of these series will be a match between Falcons and BB Team. Both teams qualify for the play-offs, and in the case of BB they have already secured it. Falcons need to win here and then, in all probability, they will be there too.

We are trying to find out how the BB Team - Falcons match will end and whether someone will be able to get a win on the eve of the Long Beach play-offs.

Let's go.

Falcons uniform

We start the match analysis with an analysis of the Falcons' form. Despite falling behind in the group stage, the Saudi club are still in the lead with odds to win at 1.6.

Falcons are a Saudi club that is preparing to conquer esports as a whole. The process is still underway, but even this Dota lineup is already hinting at plans to stay here for a long time.

In general, the tag is not new, but they were not able to achieve special fame. All they did was to play at the local Saudi eLeague. They played there in 2020, with TOP-6 and in 2021, with TOP-3 and TOP-1 respectively.

After a pause of a year, decided to return to the professional scene after Valve cancelled the DPC system. Breaking in with a leg.

• Falcons roster: skiter, Malr1ne, ATF, Cr1t, Sneyking.

The roster was assembled according to the "golden roster" principle. We managed to get two players from Tundra Esports, and at the same time champions of The International 2023 Skiter and Sneyking, Cr1t, who previously played for Shopify Rebellion and previously for EG, ATF, who showed a good performance last season in PSG Quest and before that in Nigma with OG, and closed everything with a promising mid laner Marl1ne.

In the MENA region, where Falcons are based, this squad has no competition even at the skilla level. As it happens, the Falcons have already clinched their ticket to Kuala Lumpur 2023.

First, they passed the open qualification without any difficulty, and then, again without much trouble, slammed the closed part of the qualifiers. In the final, by the way, they beat PSG Quest by a score of 3-1. What one and two are doing in the MENA region is not entirely clear, but come on.

At Pinnacle: 25 Year Anniversary Show Falcons look very confident so far, which is to be expected. They have already earned their place in the play-offs by coming out of Group B in first place without losing a single game in three matches.

The Falcons started their appearance in the Pinnacle play-offs: 25 Year Anniversary Show with a first round match against Level Up. An easy win took the Falcons to The dudley boys and there the Falcons got their first and only loss of the tournament. They were beaten by The dudley boys, who were given a rematch by the Falcons in the grand final.

In the end, the Pinnacle: 25 Year Anniversary Show Falcons took first place and earned $50,000. The triumph at the local championship was the Falcons' first win in the discipline. But not the last.

After winning at Pinnacle, Falcons finished top 6 at ESL One Kuala Lumpur 2023 and then started to dominate. In 2024, they won 3 qualifiers: at BB Dacha, at DreamLeague Season 22 and ESL One Birmingham at their home in the MENA region.

Just before competing at DL Season 22, Falcons were the champions of BB Dacha, earning $400,000.

The first day of the DreamLeague Season 22 group stage Falcons went 2-2, which is not bad, but not particularly good either. On the second day, Falcons played to a draw and got a win, thus coming out with 1 win and 3 draws. The situation was similar on the third game day.

The most popular Falcons heroes

Io (6 matches, 66% wins), Death Prophet (5 matches, 60% wins), Chen (5 matches, 60% wins), Dawnbreaker (4 matches, 75% wins), Earth Spirit (4 matches, 75% wins) appeared most often in spades.

BB Team uniforms

We continue our match breakdown with an analysis of BB Team's match form. In this match they are playing as number two and this despite their early passage to the main stage of the championship.

In the first season of the regional league BB Team took the top 1, very confidently running over their main opponents Spirit and HR. However, the success was quickly overshadowed by their performance at Lima Major 2023, where BB failed to make it out of the group.

A few inconclusive events later, BB Team began play in the second division of the DPC. This time the situation changed dramatically, from top 1 to top 3, but on the international stage everything was stable: another failure to get out of the group at the Major e.

The third season of DPC was held under the slogan "it's time to get back", but somehow it didn't work out, something didn't go well and in the end - TOP-2. Again, kind of significant, but if we compare Western and Eastern Europe, TOP-2 in the first case is much more prestigious than BB's achievement.

• BB Team composition: Nightfall, gpk, MieRo, Save, TORONTOTOKYO.

BB Team's moment of glory was DreamLeague Season 20. Having got to the tournament quite by chance (they replaced Execration), the Eastern European residents managed to make it to the grand final of the tournament, where they beat Gladiators, but eventually lost with the score 2-3.

After a solid group stage at The Bali Major 2023 with a 4-2-2 from BB, Eastern European Resident made it to the top set of play-offs. There the team outplayed Tundra Esports, but due to a tournament rules violation that result was cancelled. As a result, Bali Major 2023 ended for BB Team in the top 12.

After the last Major tournament of the season BB Team attended a number of other events. Among them is the Riyadh Masters 2023. At the biggest commercial tournament of the season, BB Team made it to the top 6, which is pretty good.

In addition to the Riyadh Masters 2023 BB Team also made an appearance at the BB Dacha. The tournament from the main sponsor BB Club finished without having started: BB Team failed to get out of the group and as a result finished in the top 8.

In the group stage of DreamLeague Season 21 BB Team played in Group B. They managed to take the 2nd place, passing only Team Spirit.

BB visited The International 2023. Then the team managed to reach the top 6, but they were knocked out of the tournament by Azure Ray.

At ESL Kuala Lumpur 2023 BB played the group stage neutrally, playing all matches in a draw. This allowed them to advance to the play-offs, where BB looked much better than they did in the group: 2-0 against Tundra Esports and 2-0 against G2.IG. However, BB Team went on to face Team Liquid and ended up in the top 4. Next BB Team played at BB Dacha Dubai 2024, where they reached the Top 3.

At the end of the first day of games at DreamLeague Season 22 BB Team took the first place in their group. They won against GG and played a draw with Vp. Further the situation for BB was not worse: on the second day they closed Azure Ray with the score 2-0. Despite two draws on the third day, this did not prevent them from qualifying for the play-offs of the tournament.

The most popular BB Team characters

The most used BB Team character remains Storm Spirit (5 matches, 60% wins). The team also plays with Primal Beast and Pugna at position 4, and both heroes have 4 matches and 100% wins each. In spades was Enchantress (4 matches, 25% wins), Beastmaster (4 games, 0% wins).

History of head-to-head meetings Falcons - BB Team

The teams have played each other at the Dubai Dacha tournament, where Falcons won.

Predicted result of the match BB Team - Falcons at DreamLeague Season 22

In this match I expect a draw. In my opinion, these are two equal teams and they will exchange maps.

Bottom line: +1.5 on Falcons.
