You don't know us vs. Pieak and Friend Preview & Prediction - Free Dota 2 Betting Picks 8/1

You don't know us and Pieak and Friend will play against each other in the ESL Thailand Championship 2020 Season 1. The regional tournament features four teams from Thailand with an opportunity for two to play in the ESL One Thailand 2020: Asia. The tournament also has a ฿1,020,000 THB prize pool with ฿408,000 reserved for the winner.

You don't know us qualified for this tournament via the open qualifiers, but has not been able to make any impact in this event so far. The team has played three matches, lost all of them. While their drafts evoke confidence in the team’s chances, the players often itemize the wrong items or are out of position which gives their opponents the game on a silver platter. The lack of experience on this team is telling as they could do wonders with a bit more practice and analysis of their games.

Pieak and Friend came to the tournament via the open qualifier 2 and they have not been too impressive either. However, Pieak and Friend has won one match while it lost the remaining two. The team has shown a tendency to go for heroes that can sustain themselves longer in team fights. They have a strong laning presence, although it does not always transition into a strong midgame.

Pick: Pieak and Friend Handicap +0.5 Games (-136 @ Pinnacle)

I am taking Pieak and Friend to win a +0.5 handicap bet. Despite being 1-2 in the tournament, the tem has shown a tendency to have extremely close games which could have gone their way with a slightly better performance.
