NEON Esports and Reality Rift will face each other in the group stage of the OMEGA League: Asia Divine Division. The OMEGA League features some of the best Dota 2 teams from Southeast Asia and China competing for a $40,000 prize pool. The twelve teams are divided into two groups of six teams each. The teams play in a round robin format with the top two teams advancing to the upper bracket while the lower two teams are eliminated from the event.

NEON Esports is one of the top teams in Southeast Asian region. However, the team has not been in the best form recently as it has struggled to have convincing victories over local opponents. NEON had a strong start to the tournament with a 2-0 victory over Cignal Ultra. The SEA team picked heroes like Faceless Void, Earth Spirit and Dark Seer highlighting the team’s preference for mobility based heroes.

Reality Rift’s starting match was a 1-2 loss to Execration. Despite some strong results earlier in the year, Reality Rift has been in a slump in recent weeks. The team finished 9th in the ONE Esports Dota 2 SEA League. Reality Rift recently underwent a roster change a Drew parted ways with the team.

Pick: NEON Esports ML (-154 @ Betway)

I am taking NEON Esports to defeat Reality Rift. While NEON has not been in the best form lately, the instability on the Reality Rift roster and its recent performance gives NEON the advantage. NEON also has a preference for mobility based heroes that allow them to kite their opponents effectively in the game.
