Group C at the MDL DisneyLand Paris Major will have some fascinating subplots when Vici Gaming, PSG.LGD, Pain Gaming and Mineski meet.
Vici Gaming is the top China squad and third overall on the Dota Pro Circuit 2018-19 leaderboard. They secured their slot to the The International 9 at DreamLeague, so there is some speculation that they may not be at their best here.
PSG.LGD, the tournament’s favourite, should dominate Group C, especially consider Lu “Somnus丶M” Yao, the best player from the squad, is back from personal leave.
Pain Gaming, previously known as Butterfly Effect, is one of the dark horses in this tournament. They were the first squad to secure a slot in this main event by taking down others in from the South America Region, including Chaos Esports Club.
Mineski is the pride of SouthEast Asia region. Their most recent roster change saw Ryan “Bimbo” Jay Qui and Michael “ninjaboogie” Ross Jr. replace Kim “Febby” Yong-min and Johan “pieliedie” Åström.
Raging Potato and ninjaboogie might not be stronger than Febby and pieliedie in individual skill, but they definitely have better synergy and tactics to work with the team.

Group C betting predictions
PSG.LGD should take one of the upper bracket slot in the playoffs, while Mineski and Vici Gaming should compete for the second upper bracket slot. Without a doubt, Pain Gaming is the loser in this group.
