Tundra Esports won their tournament opener against Hellbear Smashers 2-1, but it wasn’t a clean victory. Hellbear took the series lead and came very close to securing the win, but a few silly mistakes, poor fights, and inferior team compositions allowed Tundra to come away victorious.
Brame lost their opening match of the tournament 0-2 against OG, but they held on surprisingly well and even led by 5.3k gold at 25 minutes on map one before an unfortunate team fight flipped the game upside down. Even in game two, Brame came back from a 4.2k gold deficit but were unable to match OG’s individual quality.
Tundra might have won in their last outing, but it seemed more like Hellbear Smashers losing rather than Tundra winning. While Brame are not a perfect team by any means, they looked good enough on Tuesday for us to believe they can steal at least one map.

TEAM SECRET vs TEAM NIGMA Dota 2 BETTING & MATCH DETAILS |

Betting against Team Secret throughout 2020 would have burned a massive hole in your wallet, but doing so during the recent ONE Esports Singapore Major would have proved to be very profitable. Regarded as the strongest European Dota 2 team, Secret failed to step up in the first Dota 2 Major of the year, losing two out of three bouts to finish fourth.
Due to how the seeding worked, Secret played only three games: a 1-2 loss against PSG.LGD, a 2-1 win over OB Esports x Neon, and a 0-2 loss against the eventual champions, Invictus Gaming. Team Nigma’s run at the Singapore Major was rather short-lived and largely disappointing as they managed only one draw against Vici Gaming (1-1) and four 0-2 losses against Team Liquid, PSG.LGD, AS Monaco Gambit, and T1.
Although Secret showed some cracks earlier this month, they’re still a class above Nigma, who are on a 2-1-7 run since the start of February. Clement “Puppey” Ivanov and co. have not lost against Nigma in any of their last six meetings and are 13-3 up in the head-to-head stakes since their first clash in December 2019. There is a reason why the esports bookmakers have priced Team Secret as such short favourites.
