In the fourth week of the Dreamleague, Tundra Esports defeated Entity 2-1. The team with the German midlaner Leon “Nine” Kirilin positions itself at the top of the table of the Western European Dota Pro Circuit.
“In general, if you want to get new ideas, it helps to have an open mind and watch a lot of games,” said Neta ’33’ Shapira in the post-game interview. “It’s very easy to talk to my teammates about new strategies to refine them and see if they’re really good.”
The 25-year-old from Israel is particularly known for his innovative item builds. But he doesn’t just look to the best for inspiration: “You just have to play a lot of public games and look at what people are doing. Not just the highest-level players, but also low-ranked players who focus on a hero specialize, have a lot of the good stuff.”
With the 2:1 against Entity, Tundra is now on the first place of the table. However, if OG wins their match against Goonsquad on Saturday, the Major winners can catch up.
The season is miserable for Alliance. The Swedish team lost to Goonsquad the day before and remain winless. This loss may be particularly painful given that three of Goonsquad’s players were released by Alliance before the start of the season.
