DreamLeague Season 22 Predictions
DreamLeague Season 22 is building up to be a truly special event. The event will be played on a brand new patch, the first for a long time, with significant changes and rebalancing that will shift the meta considerably. A lot of teams have also had recent roster shuffles, as well as a lot of time to now practice and stabilize into the season.
Coming off the back of an amazing tournament for BetBoom Dacha 2024, Team Falcons are one of the favourites. They had a commanding victory in the finals, smashing Team Liquid in a convincing 3-0, and have gone from strength to strength with this new roster of stars. They have a tough group, but surely must be seen as the team to beat.
Equally, Team BetBoom should not be underestimated. They also had a great event in Dubai, but fell short of their high standards. Whilst they did not win, they have consistently been one of the top performing teams of recent events, and it was moments of weakeness that let them down. We put them as quiet underdogs in this event.
OG Esports also should not be overlooked. They recently benched Yuragi and picked up Timado, with this shuffle putting more intrigue into how they will perform. Whilst not one of the favourites, they certainly have the skill to overturn anyone for those looking for excitement.
Finally, Team Spirit should be on everyones radar. Last years TI champions are always the team to beat, with Yatoro recognized as the best player in the world. They often have slow starts to the year, but also looked strong in Dubai.
