Beastcoast Team Preview

Beastcoast is one of the best Peruvian Dota 2 roster and has produced quality Dota 2 over the past few years. The team’s playstyle in the past allowed space for its position 1 player to farm and get crucial items and levels. Back when Wraith King was the best carry role, Beastcoast used the hero to maximum impact.

However, the team has not adjusted well to subsequent changes in meta, often falling back to their old playstyles. Beastcoast has played three matches in this tournament so far. The team won one match against Gorillaz-Pride but lost its next matches to 4Zoomers and Infamous.

Despite being a top tier Dota 2 team, Beastcoast has lost a lot of its momentum in the past few months. The team relies heavily on its core players and the mid to late gameplay to save teh performance. However, this leaves their early game exposed to enemy aggression and Beastcoast is often caught unawares in its matches.

Thunder Predator

Thunder Predator has been in great form recently and finished the OGA DotaPIT Season 2 Americas in second place. The team also came fourth at the recently concluded The Great American Rivalry Season 1 Division 1.

Thunder Predator has a very stable roster that has been together since December 2019. The core roster includes a bunch of Peruvian players who have been working on their hero pool and synergy.
