ESB’s Dota 2 esports betting predictions for Tuesday, May 16, focus on a pair of Dota Pro Circuit (DPC) China 2023 Tour 3 Division I bouts. Here are our selections for Xtreme Gaming vs Piggy Killer and PSG.LGD vs Aster.Aries, with esports odds courtesy of GG Bet.


XTREME GAMING vs PIGGY KILLER Dota 2 BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

Best Odds: Xtreme $1.22 at GG Bet | Piggy $4.00 at GG Bet

?Xtreme Gaming had an underwhelming start to the 2023 DPC season and finished DPC China Tour 1 Division I in fifth. However, after making a couple of roster changes in March, Zhang “Paparazi灬” Chengjun and co. won the second DPC Tour of the year with a 6-1 record.

Despite their domestic success, Xtreme Gaming failed to accomplish much internationally. They crashed out of ESL One Berlin Major 2023 in 9th-12th place after losing to one of the eventual finalists, Team Liquid, 1-2 in the first round of the playoffs.

Their next opponents Piggy Killer won the DPC China 2023 Tour 2 Division II with a 6-1 record, which is impressive, but we’ve yet to see them play a top-tier team. This explains why the best Dota 2 betting sites have Piggy Killer priced as $4.00 underdogs, and while the price might make sense, the raw talent on this roster isn’t to be underestimated.

We have to respect Xtreme Gaming and what they showed in the second tour of the season, but at the offered Dota 2 betting odds, siding with Fade and his crew with a map advantage is a better play.

PSG.LGD vs ASTER.ARIES Dota 2 BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

Best Odds: PSG.LGD $1.18 at GG Bet | Aster.A $4.49 at GG Bet

?PSG.LGD are priced as heavy favourites to defeat Astrer.Aries on Tuesday, which isn’t too surprising considering what the two teams have shown lately. PSG.LGD finished DPC Tour 2 Division I in second place with a 6-1 record, well ahead of Aster.Aries (3-4), but like Xtreme Gaming, they couldn’t produce a deep run at ESL One Berlin Major 2023 (9th-12th).

Aster.Aries last met with PSG.LGD on March 18 and lost in a very one-sided series. PSG.LGD smashed Aster with 36-10 and 29-4 in kills and a massive +35k and 18k net worth lead. Aster.Aries have since not made a single roster change, whereas PSG.LGD added Li “niu” Kongbo as a replacement for Nicholas “zeal” Lim, which made them even stronger.

We don’t expect any surprises on Tuesday. PSG.LGD are the better team and should make it past Aster.Aries without any issues.
