Looking at the match Ninjas In Pyjamas played against Gambit Esports on 5 January 2019, Gambit Esports whitewashed Ninjas In Pyjamas without any mercy. Both team made a good draft in game one, while Gambit Esport had a slight advantage in drafting when they last picked Outworld Destroyer to their side.

Ninjas In Pyjamas did not have good strategy to face Outworld Destroyer in laning phase of the game because their core heroes were Tiny, Nature Prophet and Slark. None of these heroes are able to sustain the harassment dealt by Outworld Destroyer in laning phase.

Ninjas In Pyjamas drafted quite bad in game 2, they even tried to play Puck as position four in that game. In the meta of latest patch, we barely see any team is playing Puck as support position in any professional match, that was a bold decision made from Ninja In Pyjamas.

Saksa, the position four player from Ninjas In Pyjamas played Puck in that game and he could not do anything until level six. He was literally being useless in the first ten minutes of the game.

Ninjas In Pyjamas vs Keen Gaming prediction

After running our eye over the drafting abilities and their performance in most recent professional match-ups, we give Keen Gaming a 75% chance to win this match-up.

Our recommendation is to go medium and bet on Keen Gaming to win the game at better than $1.67.
