Dota 2 commentator Vladimir `Maelstorm` Kuzminov has shared his opinions on the form of teams competing at FISSURE Universe: Episode 4. He expressed positive remarks about Gaimin Gladiators and Tundra Esports.
According to Maelstorm, he decided to refrain from making specific predictions for this tournament. However, he noted that Gaimin Gladiators are in good competitive shape. In contrast, he found the gameplay of PARIVISION and BetBoom Team to be quite peculiar based on what he has observed.
He extended this sentiment to Aurora, suggesting their performance is even more disappointing than expected. Regarding Tundra Esports, Maelstorm believes they have improved with the addition of Crystallis, but he advises against premature celebrations and suggests further observation is needed. He also anticipates BOOM to outperform Winter Bear, but remains uncertain about Night Pulse`s performance given their roster instability.
FISSURE Universe: Episode 4 is currently underway online from March 22nd to 30th, featuring 16 teams vying for a $500,000 prize pool, with half of it going to the champion.
