Vikin.gg vs. Team Empire Preview & Prediction - Free Dota 2 Betting Picks 8/9

Vikin.gg and Team Empire will face each other in the quarterfinals of the OMEGA League: Europe closed qualifier. The OMEGA League: Europe closed qualifier started with sixteen team competing for the coveted two slots. The top two team of the tournament qualify to the LAN event.

Vikin.gg topped Group D after winning matches against Cyberium Seed and Team Unique. Vikin.gg’s coach ImmortalFaith has helped the team develop unique strategies and come up with strong performances. The team’s playstle complements the deep hero pool. However, Vikin.gg often falls short in the late game, where the players are not able to build up on their mid-game advantage. The team has picked heroes like Snapfire, Slardar, Lifestealer amongst others.

Team Empire finished Group A in the second place behind Cyber lEgacy. The team won matches against 5Comrades and KHAN. The team did not stand a chance against Cyber Legacy when they lost 0-2. Empire’s roster comprises the former Team Empire.Hope squad and its players have a lot experience playing with each other. The team is a stable roster and their synergy is what drives the team forward.

Pick: Over 2.5 Games (+152 @ Pinnacle)

I am taking Team Empire and Vikin.gg to go over 2.5 games. The two teams have surprisingly never met each other and this series will go the distance of over 2.5 games.
