Lima Major 2023 Playoffs Overview & Group Stage Recap

The Lima Major 2023 Playoffs are set, and regrettably, we did not strike all our forecasts. For beginners, BetBoom Team which at first had an incredible start in Group B rapidly fell off and led to removal.

As such, here’s a take a look at the Lima Major 2023 Playoffs to see what the groups are up versus.

The Lima Major Group Stage Recap

Before that, a wrap-up on the Lima Major 2023 Group Stage is needed to comprehend how we wound up with the current Playoffs bracket.

Group A, for the many part, went as expected, with the majority of the International 11 (TI11) individuals advancing into Playoffs. The reality that PSG.LGD and Tundra Esports were the bottom seeds of the standings definitely upset fans’ expectations.

Sure, PSG.LGD didn’t have their golden young boy in their line-up, aka Wang “ Ame” Chunyu. Thinking about the multi-TI finalist’s constant efficiency in the very first Tour of Dota Pro Circuit 2023 (DPC 2023), it’s not an excellent appearance for the proclaimed greatest Chinese powerhouse.

Nothing tops Tundra Esports, the TI11 Champions themselves, which directly received the Lima Major Playoffs. Paradoxically, they lost every series in which they experienced previous TI11 competitors, such as Gaimin Gladiators, PSG.LGD, Team Spirit, and Evil Geniuses(previously ex-Thunder Awaken and beastcoast gamers).

After all, lots of challengers have actually called out Tundra’s infamous abuse of subdued product develops at TI11, the Wraith Pact.

BetBoom strikes rock-bottom

Over at Group B, BetBoom gets heavy reaction for their downhill efficiency after the very first day. BetBoom was the highly-anticipated dream team from Eastern Europe, making up just prominent gamers. Among them is no other than Alexander “ TORONTOTOKYO” Khertek himself, who was the ex-Team Spirit midlaner who won TI10

In reality, BetBoom was unstoppable throughout EEU DPC2023 BetBoom has actually played underwhelmingly throughout every series, frequently just protecting a tie. This left BetBoom with inadequate points to even challenge the 6th location for a tiebreaker.

Instead, it was HellRaisers, which we at first weakened as a soon-to-be-eliminated group. HR had the ability to nab the last slot to advance into Playoffs after a tiebreaker triumph vs Geek Slate Geek Slate did not continue even more into the Lima Major, their efforts were well appreciated. Considering they are a reasonably brand-new Southeast Asian group, which just had their very first launching in a DPC Major.

Dota 2 Lima Major Playoffs Predictions

Most of our leading prospects effectively make it into the Upper Brackets of Lima Major 2023 Playoffs. In this tier, it might genuinely be anybody’s video game to advance, however we do have fan favorites entering into the Playoffs.

We anticipate Gaimin Gladiators to beat Team Aster given that they aren’t as appealing as their TI11 lineup. While Evil Geniuses and Team Spirit will likely win versus Entity and Shopify Rebellion respectively. Team Liquid has the very best chances of winning versus their match-up, Talon Esports, after their indisputable top place in Group B.

Down in the lower bracket, we do not have actually any validated matches for the waiting for lower bracket groups. All eyes will be on PSG.LGD and Tundra Esports to provide a lower bracket run considering that they are apparently fan favorites.

The Lima Major 2023 is looking spicy as we eagerly anticipate a more amazing display of Dota 2 than the group phase legend. Therefore, capture the action live today and over the weekend, when the Grand Finals unfold.
