Alliance took their first points of the 2021/22 DPC season on Tuesday, when they won against Coolguys, largely thanks to Ondřej “Supream^” Štarha, who had a pop-off performance on Invoker in game two. Alliance are now 1-2, which isn’t great, but their only two losses came against Western Europe’s juggernauts in Tundra Esports and Team Secret.
Team Tickles have won two fixtures so far, against Coolguys (2-0) and Nigma Galaxy (2-0), but they couldn’t deliver against Liquid (1-2) last Saturday. Those are not particularly terrible results, but it’s not like Tickles have shown much knowing that they had only won against two bottom teams of the division.
They might not be a top team in the division, but Alliance are not that much weaker than Team Tickles. At +155, Alliance are priced a bit too generously and are a solid value bet.

The Dota 2 betting odds on this match make sense since it’s hard to doubt Team Secret. As one of the most stacked Dota 2 teams globally, Secret are bound to see some success this season, but they might need a bit more time to build strong synergy and show their full potential.
Nigma Galaxy have yet to show anything noteworthy this season and are 0-3 with a 0-6 map differential. On a more positive note, Nigma have been playing much better with Amer “Miracle-” Al-Barkawi back on the roster, but that didn’t help them on Thursday when they lost against Secret (0-2) in the second round of OGA Dota PIT Season 5.
Nigma Galaxy had some moments on the day and were solid on map two, but it was evident that they weren’t good enough to compete with Secret. Expect another 2-0 sweep from The International 10 semi-finalists.
