HYDRA vs CHEKOLDYRKI Dota 2 BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

Dota 2 Odds: HYDRA -555.56 at BetOnline | chekoldyriki +359 at BetOnline

HYDRA are expected to stomp the newly formed chekoldyriki and secure their second tournament win. That might sound fair knowing that chekoldyriki is a relatively unknown roster, but it’s fair to question whether HYDRA deserve to be -555.56 favourites.

HYDRA did well in Dota Pro Circuit (DPC) Eastern Europe Tour 1 Division II, in which they finished third. They have not looked good in either of their games here, however, losing to CIS Rejects (1-2) and Entity (1-2).

Admittedly, chekoldyriki look much weaker on paper, but we haven’t seen them play more than one game, so it’s hard to explain why are they priced as +359 underdogs. HYDRA might be better, but they’re not that much stronger, so we have to side with the underdogs with a map advantage.

GAMBIT ESPORTS vs ENTITY Dota 2 BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

Dota 2 Odds: Gambit +173 at BetOnline | Entity -232.56 at BetOnline
When: February 2, 2022 at 16:00 CET

Gambit Esports and Entity (former Creepwave) are two of the strongest teams at the tournament, but the esports betting sites seem to prefer Entity for this bout. That makes sense since Remco “Crystallis” Arets and his crew are the Dota Pro Circuit (DPC) Western Europe Division II champions, but they haven’t looked that much better than Gambit in this competition.

Entity are 4-0, but two of their wins came from forfeited games (against Into The Breach and chekoldyriki). Meanwhile, Gambit Esports are 3-0 with one forfeit win against Into The Breach, so record-wise Entity are not that much better than Gambit.

Furthermore, there isn’t much to separate these two squads talent-wise, and we expect that to show on Wednesday. Entity might come out ahead, but it won’t be a clean sweep.
