Into The Breach have been having a rough start to the 2021/22 Dota 2 Pro Circuit season, with only one win from four outings (1-3). Meanwhile, Team Bald remain in the hunt for a promotion with a 2-2 record, but they’re not a team you would project to finish inside the top-two.
Bald last met Into The Breach way back in May, when they won 2-0, albeit ITB were at the time fielding an entirely different roster. The British esports organisation has since made several changes to its Dota 2 division, most notably in November, when Into The Breach welcomed four new members, including veteran Nikola “LeBronDota” Popović.
On paper, Into The Breach look stronger, but it doesn’t make much sense to bet on them at $1.50. They need to win this match to avoid relegation, so we expect LeBronDota and his crew to win, but it could get messy.

Brame are 3-1 with a 7-4 map differential, which is a solid record but not good enough for their standards. Brame are projected to be one of the top teams of this division, but so far, Giorgos “SsaSpartan” Giannakopoulos and co. have yet to deliver.
Luckily, Brame should have a fairly easy time picking up points on Wednesday when they face off against Ghost Frogs, who haven’t been too convincing this season. They’re 1-3 with a 3-6 map differential, which sits them just above the relegation line.
Ghost Frogs have left a lot to be desired this term, but they had shown some life on December 20, when they took a map off Team Bald. Regardless, winning a map against Team Bald is hardly something to write home about, and it’s by no means an indication of any quality.
The Dota 2 betting odds on Brame to win in straight maps aren’t very high, but even at $1.56, this is a bet worth taking. Brame can’t afford to slip, and we expect them to step it up.
