The group stage battles at Riyadh Masters 2025 continue to deliver drama, and a recent clash in Group D saw PARIVISION go head-to-head with Shopify Rebellion. After a closely contested series in the competitive Dota 2 tournament, the two teams ultimately split the points, concluding their match with a 1-1 draw.
For the PARIVISION squad, featuring players like Alan “Satanic” Gallyamov, this result is notable as it marks their inaugural draw in the current group stage campaign. A draw keeps points ticking over, providing a moderate boost, though a clear victory would naturally be the preferred outcome in the race for playoff spots.
Meanwhile, for Enzo “Timado” Gianoli and his Shopify Rebellion teammates, the draw adds a single point to what has been, frankly, a difficult journey through Group D so far. Their record now sits at 0 wins, 1 draw, and 2 losses after three matches, having previously fallen to formidable opponents Team Liquid and Heroic. Navigating this group stage is proving to be quite the puzzle for the North American contingent, who are clearly struggling to find their footing against international competition.
This match is part of the prestigious Riyadh Masters 2025 Dota 2 tournament, hosted in Saudi Arabia as a key component of the grand Esports World Cup 2025. The event runs from July 8th to July 19th, bringing together 16 elite teams from around the globe to compete for a substantial $3 million prize pool. Every point earned in the group stage is vital for teams aiming to secure a spot in the highly anticipated knockout rounds and ultimately contend for the championship title.
As the group stage progresses, teams like PARIVISION and Shopify Rebellion will be fighting hard for every advantage, making results like this draw impactful on the overall standings and their hopes of advancing.
