The “main event” of the Dreamleague Season 25 group stage is coming up with Team Falcons set to take on Tundra Esports. How should bettors look at this match?
Tundra Esports is a relatively new organization in Dota 2, but it already has one of the best pedigrees in the game. The team won The International 2022 and has had multiple strong placements in majors and Internationals since then. What’s most impressive is that the 2025 iteration of the team is looking as strong as ever.
Since putting together its current roster, Tundra Esports has won two tournaments and is off to a strong start in DreamLeague Season 25. The DreamLeague 24 champions, Team Falcons, are no slouches, though. How do they match up here?
Tundra Esports is a sizable betting favorite against Team Falcons heading into their DreamLeague Season 25 group stage match, with the moneyline bets standing at 1.46 vs 2.59.
The line is skewed in large part due to how hot Tundra has been over recent months. Around New Year’s Day, the team announced the additions of Bozhidar “bzm” Bogdanov and Anton “dyrachyo” Shkredov. Its current roster stands as follows:
Since putting together this group, the team has won two tournaments in the BLAST Slam 2 and FISSURE PLAYGROUND #1, worth $700,000 in total. It’s also looked very strong in DreamLeague Season 25, going 13-1 in the first group stage. In the second group stage, its record stands at 3-2, with wins over Team Spirit, BetBoom Team, and Heroic, and losses against Parivision and Team Liquid.
Meanwhile, Team Falcons brought its enduring roster to the event, which has been in place since 2023:
The head-to-head record between Team Falcons and Tundra Esports historically favors Team Falcons, but that’s changed of late. Team Falcons and Tundra Esports’ current rosters have faced off three times in February. Tundra has won all three matches.
TUNDRA vs LIQUID – WHAT A GAME – DREAMLEAGUE SEASON 25 DOTA 2
There’s some value in a moneyline bet on Team Falcons, but bettors may want to get creative if they want to bet on Tundra.
It’s worth noting that, as of this writing, both Falcons and Tundra have a match to play before facing off. Tundra will face Chimera Esports while Falcons will face BetBoom Team. The outcomes of those matches will likely make the lines shift. For early bettors, here are some good options.
While Tundra is hot right now, the team isn’t unstoppable. This has been seen multiple times over, as recently as Tundra’s losses to Team Liquid and Parivision. Tundra’s recent success is undeniable, but it’s not to the point where the team should be seen as undefeatable.
Quite simply, if Team Liquid can beat Tundra, there’s no question that Falcons can. Tundra’s current roster going 3-0 over Falcons is cause for concern, but this moneyline is a bit juicier than it looks.
There’s a small sample size here, but it’s looking like Tundra is still figuring out what to do after the recent Wandering Waters update that dramatically changed the game and thus the competitive meta. The patch altered the Dota 2 map in a few ways and overhauled several characters, as well as reworking neutral items. The update rolled out in the middle of DreamLeague Season 25, leaving the competing teams scrambling to put together a plan.
The full effects of the patch aren’t fully known but for either Tundra or Falcons, the early outlook is that its games are taking longer to complete. This makes sense as teams are still working to resolve how best to play the new patch, making for longer games that can drag out rather than short and concise games driven by the most effective meta strategies.
Picking Tundra to win a map in over 35 minutes escalates the winnings past well past the 2.0 mark. For those who are feeling bullish about Tundra, this is likely the best way to go about betting on them, it may be the smartest pick for this match overall.
