?Aster.Aries have not won a single match in their last six outings and are 2-7 since the start of July. Their only two wins over that stretch came against Xtreme Gaming (2-0) and Phoenix Gaming (2-1); however, they did relatively well against Vici Gaming (1-2) just two weeks ago.
Vici Gaming are one of the region’s top teams, but it’s hard to be optimistic about a roster that is 3-5 on the month. Vici should still win, but they’re not a good moneyline bet at the offered Dota 2 betting odds.
With the form they’ve been showing, there’s an equal chance that Vici drop one map, which is why we will gladly take the better odds on the outsiders with a map handicap.

?Team Aster have yet to lose against Royal Never Give Up in 2021, boasting an impressive 6-0 head-to-head record. Their last two meetings happened two weeks ago, when Aster beat RNG with a pair of 2-1 results during OGA Dota PIT Season 5 China.
Team Aster enter this match with a 3-4 record from their last seven, albeit they are 3-1 in their last four with wins against Elephant (2-0), Invictus Gaming (2-1), and Vici Gaming (2-1). RNG have managed the same 3-4 record in their last seven and are 2-1 in their last three, with wins against Team MagMa (2-1) and Elephant (2-0).
RNG look like a better pick on paper since they usually do better against China’s top Dota 2 teams, but we must respect the head-to-head record. Team Aster have consistently won against RNG, and we don’t believe that will change on Wednesday.
