Dota 2 Upcoming Match

Tournament: European 2021 Dota Pro Circuit (DPC)

Match: Team Liquid Vs. ChickenFighters

Date: January 26, 2021, at 18:00 CET

Live Stream: Twitch TV

After the DreamLeague Season 14 DPC EU Decider Tournament that was held from the 7th – 10th of January, four teams advanced to the Upper Division to compete for a piece of the $205,000 prize pool. All participants in this competition will be rewarded with cash prizes. However, some will not receive any Pro Circuit points, while others will be sent to lower divisions.

All matches are best of three, but the last two-placed teams will be relegated to the Lower Division for Season 2. The winner will head straight to the Major Playoffs with 500 Dota Pro Circuit (DPC) points, while the second-placed team will advance to the Major Group Stage with 300 DPC. The third (200 DPC) and fourth-placed (100 DPC) teams will qualify for the Major Wild Card. The fifth (50 DPC) and sixth-placed teams will remain in the current division.

Team Liquid kicked-off the tournament recording a win against Vikin.gg in the first match. Team Liquid comes into this game as favorites following their sweep against Vikin.gg in their first match and a narrow 1-2 loss to Team Nigma. So far, Team Liquid has started the tournament well and are clear favorites to win against ChickenFighters. At BetOnline, Team Liquid is favored to win with -625, while the win odd for ChickenFighters stands at +382.

ChickenFighters, which was formerly called Ninjas in Pyjamas have had a poor start in the competition, losing their first match against OG. However, their head-to-head against Team Liquid shows that they are capable of snatching the win. Out of four previous meetings, Liquid was only able to win once. Team Liquid is in better form currently, and that might be enough to secure them the victory.

Betting Pick: +1.5 Maps: ChickenFighters (+125) at BetOnline.

Dota 2 2018 Tips 1x2

Match: Mudgolems Vs. OG

Date: January 26, 2021, at 21:00 CET

Live Stream: Twitch TV

OG secured a narrow 2-1 lead against ChickenFighters in their first match in the competition, which showed how rusty the team is. It’s been a month since the team last played competitively, and it showed in their first game. However, the quality of players available in their roster helped them secure the win, and it is likely we see a repeat of that performance.

Mudgolems are in this competition because they finished third in the Decider Tournament. Their first display against Team Secret showed that they still lack the quality to contest for championships. They were able to steal one map in the game. However, more was expected of them as they came into the game being the hot team. OG has not had much competitive action in recent times, but it should be an easy win for them against Mudgolems. At BetOnline, OG is favored to win with -357, while the winning odd for Mudgolems stands at +254.

Betting Pick: Win: OG (-357) at BetOnline.

Current mmr : 3353

List out the struggles you had with climbing from around this mmr to ancient and how you overcame them. I always get a team thats filled with Tilted people so I always contemplate muting them first thing.

Learn to blame yourself, I climbed from legend 2 to ancient 5 last season, I have dropped this season but you need to be able to recognise your mistakes, rather than mindlessly blaming your team, otherwise you won't improve, and therefore aren't deserving of a higher mmr.

I don't understand these threads.
One thing I can tell you is that starting to flame in-game will more likely lose that match for you than anything else. Nobody is a fucking progamer in our pubs, nor are they your seasoned teammates, so everyone will make mistakes, you included.
Just focus on your duty, try to do your role, and try to play with the team, if that's what the gameplan dictates.

1º Buy the compendium and play only ranked roles.

2º Choose 2-3 strong heroes, that are high in the meta, and only play them

3º Play as you are playing alone, dont flame, and always try to carry the game on your back, even if your team is feeding.

A hero that works really well at mid-low lvl is wraith king.

He is strong in the lane, have an amazing mid game, and is ok late game.

Go safe and do blademail -> radiance, (sometimes blink)

^ he's asking how to get ancient, it helps if you're already there.

Dota 2 2018 Tips

I'm still waiting for your response on my callout

am ? lol you can counter am with wk if u pick it wisely

basically your strategy is to wait for enemy to pick carry

then pick wk and let enemy pick am

ez game

@Heaven,

60% of the time, it works everytime.

The only way WK gets an advantage against AM is if he can hit level 20 before AM has manta and basher, if not it's GG if the AM is worth his salt.

as i said wk need strategic pick
if u pick wk mindlessly most of the times you will lose

AM is not really a counter, you can get online much faster, PL is much more annoying, he can drain you mana, and dodge stuns.

And obviously you have to consider the other team, its probably not very wise to pick WK against Invoker and KOTL.

Pick ursa jungle each and every game in order to gain ez mmr and climb up to ancient tier. P.S You're welcome.

Doing jungle against dual lanes is suicide.

You could get away with jungle on trilane meta because your carry/sup would usually win against the solo off lane.

If you jungle now, you will probably lose your safelane (against dual), you will lose you offlane, and probably lose mid because you wont have rotations.

BUT

Ursa carry works well, it's pretty good

Dota 2 2018 Tips Tricks

Ursa works in any situation since he's considerably 'balanced' right now but since he was complaining about getting teammates who have nothing better to do besides whining and blaming each other every game, I feel like taking his hero to the jungle would still give him some sort of a chance as he wouldn't have to deal with his annoying teammates until at least the first 9-11 minutes because of that.

Dude, you cant expect blamers and ragers to mature, practice MID to solo carry your team.

Dota 2 2018 Tips Cheat

watch clq aka road to redemption journey from like 2k to divine, it's pretty helpful to see how smurfs approach the games i think, there's plenty of videos from stream on yt

Get good in axe. No one will fight with u for an offlane role and axe counters most melee heroes. I meet a lot of jug players from 3.5k-4k mmr and axe owns him man.ez pzy.

PROWER is correct, that is exactly what I did. I played Zeus as mid, Pudge and WR as support, WK and Spectre as carries.
