We continue to observe the events within the Eastern European division. The temperature is heating up and today we will say goodbye to the teams that turned out to be out of luck.
This case is not like that. Both Outsiders and Mind Games barely made it to the second round, which means they are still afloat and losing this match does not mean they are relegated.
The victory in the second round brings the clubs one step closer to the coveted first Major of the season. We are trying to figure out who will take this step and who will have to continue fighting in the lower bracket.
Form Outsiders
Outsiders will play as the favorite in this match. The bookmaker estimates the team's chance of success with odds around 1.2.
In my opinion, this figure is too low. Outsiders look better against the backdrop of Mind Games in terms of roster stability, but this stability does not bring powerful performance.
Lineup Outriders
- Pure
- gpk
- DM
- Yamich
- Xakoda
We could watch these five in action throughout the endless seasons of D2CL. We recently watched it as part of the DPC 2021/2022 Tour II: Eastern Europe, and honestly, we can say that the spectacle was not the best.
Outsiders latest match results
- Lost to Team Spirit 0-3
- 2-1 victory over Gambit Esports
- Victory over Entity with a score of 2-0
- Defeat then BetBoom with a score of 0-2
- Victory over CIS Rejects with a score of 2-1
The first pancake almost turned out to be a lump, but with grief in half Outsiders still put the squeeze on absolutely sterile CIS Rejects.
Heroes Outsiders
Outsiders Most Picked Heroes in 7.31: Drow Ranger (1 match, 100% win rate), Troll Warlord (1 match, 100% win rate), Keeper of the Light (1 match, 100% win rate).
Most Successful Outsiders Heroes: All of the above.
Form Mind Games
Mind Games will act as catch-ups in this match. The success of this club is estimated by a coefficient in the region of 3.7.
Again, the figure is very solid and, as for me, does not quite reflect reality. Mind Games has a clear problem, and first of all it concerns fresh changes in the composition.
Lineup of Mind Games
- Dinozavrik
- Ainkrad
- Petushara
- Bignum
- Slayer
Just before the start of the tournament, two core players fn and 7jesu left the team. Newly arrived performers in the person of Dinozavrik and Ainkrad, and especially the second one, still look good and perform no worse than their predecessors.

The debut series at Mind Games turned out to be even more nervous than the match between Outsiders and CIS Rejects. What is the cost of the final map for 80 minutes.
Heroes Mind Games
Mind Games Most Picked Heroes: Dragon Knight (2 matches, 100% win rate), Chaos Knight (1 match, 100% win rate). Pugna (1 match, 100% win rate).

History of personal confrontations
Previously, the teams in these lineups did not play with each other. This match will be the debut face-to-face confrontation.
Outcome
It is difficult for me to name a winner in this match. In theory, they should be Outsiders, but I don’t expect an easy walk for them.
Outcome: total +2.5.
