Of course, you don’t have to be Einstein to figure out which team is favored in this matchup. One would say NGX is “smurfing” in Division II right now and TBR is not nearly the same level as the TI champions.

A merciless beatdown by Nigma Galaxy with a 2-0 against TBR

The first game witnessed non-stop clashes from both sides but NGX was constantly on top of every fight. MinD_ContRoL went for an offlane Pudge and KuroKy played a Zeus position 5. We know Kuroky is no stranger to odd supports, especially after his notorious Razor 5 days. In thepost-match interview, he even revealed that Zeus is his current favorite. “I really like Zeus. Chill, just farm, click ulti sometimes, don’t have to buy Sentries, it’s a good hero.”

But the real star of Game 1 was SumaiL’s Dawnbreaker. The midlaner led the net worth chart and once he equipped himself with more items, we saw some nasty damage output.

In Game 2, it was sheer, brutal dominance from NGX. They conquered the map, murdering anyone in sight, and finished the game in only 24 minutes.

NGX is definitely feeling themselves in the DPC and even though they’re playing from Division II, their impenetrable energy is looking powerful. They’re insanely close to booking that promotion slot to Division I and with this level of performance, they might do so with ease.
