Dota 2 - The international 2018

[stomachgrowls]

I have noticed that there are less people interested in e-sports. As long as you are able to make money, I think that’s OK, by gambling.

I’m not that updated with the rosters in a different team changes but I am rooting for the Philippines. I don’t know if they would be able to be the EG.  With their match yesterday with Newbee, They last and I think there still a chance hopefully they will be in the top teams.

I dont think so, if you do try to check the entire number of players and fans you will able to say different thing because they cant able to accumulate such prize pool if interest would be that low.
TNC is a philippines team and they are good but beating up EG would still be on less chances if we do see the current scores on the 1st day of the group stage.

Fnatic actually looked very strong yesterday. EE and Universe are both very strong players, and although Fnatic's record this year isn't amazing, they stomped Liquid 39-1 in half an hour.

Harder to get a handle on Group B given they have played less games.

Do you watch the first match fnatic vs liquid? Because Fnatic almost win in the first game too but they choked, Fnatic threw the game so hard in the 1st game and make liquid win the first game.

Fanatic do have a good momentum on early game but they choked from mid to late game but they do able to make a comeback on 2nd game giving only the team liquid on the score of 1.

I'm out of thinking because I'm sleepless for 2 days just because of watching the games live through stream.

I know there are your favorite teams, crowd favorite. But there is one team that caught my attention and that is Team Serenity. It's the dark horse of the tourney and it's being compared to CDEC and Wings.

Anyone noticed also the experimental games of Liquid?

EG continuing to dominate the second day, going in to day three at 9-1. OG were actually looking better too - despite currently being 3-5, they have played most of the harder teams in the group. Hopefully with their easier matches on day three they can get in to the upper bracket.

Current standing of Serenity is on the last spot or place on Group B having a 3-5 standing on day 2. They would need to catch up  since the group stage would be only 2 days left.
EG is on fire having 9-1 on group A and VGJ Storm 7-1 on group B. These teams are already on top tier bracket when the main event starts on August 20, Monday.
We are on the same situation where i do only have 2-3 hrs sleep a day since the beginning of the group stage.

i guess if winstrike cant beat eg i guess they are out, rooted them since they qualified to a major. i hope EG doesnt do ti 6 secret run.

this is why fnatic games are interesting to watch they are so unpredictable they win unwinnable game and lose a unlosable game that's the power of fiftEE/fiftEE.

SEA teams are interesting to watch to this TI 8 even mineski too they can still able to cope up with strong teams and about fanatic i cant even believe they do able to push down Liquid when it comes to scores 39-1.

I agree and i remember it clearly how they do eliminate OG on TI6 using that Huskar.

Is there a website or a blog or something where I could find information about e-sport experts' analysis of the games and predictions for who is going to win etc.? I would like to get into e-sport betting Are there a lot of teams to follow? I would imagine the e-sport scene is not as big as other sports and it's easier to keep tabs on the favourites.

You can use up the links given earlier.

If you're looking for a way to track matches live and/or even just looking for information on TI 2018, GosuGamers is a good option, and Liquipedia is another good site if you're also looking for things like past accomplishments and player transfers, etc. I personally use Liquipedia for tracking CS:GO teams, and I've never had an issue with them-the site's neat and navigable, no complaints from me.

Here's the Liquipedia TI 2018 page.

You can use these too.

I havent test it out yet im not really relying into tips.

Nope I dont know one but if you want to get started to know which is the better team then I got a site that contain all previous record of the team including how famous they are and their current roster

https://liquipedia.net/dota2/Main_Page

All player transfer included as well as the previous match result or head to head result from the team that you are trying to bet on. This website is probably the best for dota 2 esports right now

This is very interesting for some people and I am a game lover, EG always dominates and it is true that the achievements in the current competition EG is superior in terms of points but it's good to watch if the two meet but I prefer EG because they are a great team .

Thanks for all the suggestions, guys! I would love to get my feet wet with e-sports betting soon, but I need to do some reading and researching first  
I will start off by checking some Twitch live-streams to learn more about the tournament games first though. Good luck with your bets, guys

There is a lot of reuploader as well in youtube if you prefer youtube though. In Dota 2 the match result will be very unexpected but at the early stage it will be few easy bet for you to choose, just go for the favourite because thats what happens in the group stage. As for the next stage it could be very unpredictable

I support TEAM LIQUID btw

I know there are your favorite teams, crowd favorite. But there is one team that caught my attention and that is Team Serenity. It's the dark horse of the tourney and it's being compared to CDEC and Wings.

Current standing of Serenity is on the last spot or place on Group B having a 3-5 standing on day 2. They would need to catch up  since the group stage would be only 2 days left.
EG is on fire having 9-1 on group A and VGJ Storm 7-1 on group B. These teams are already on top tier bracket when the main event starts on August 20, Monday.
We are on the same situation where i do only have 2-3 hrs sleep a day since the beginning of the group stage.

Team Serenity is now on the lower bracket and they'll fight against Fnatic. If Fnatic isnt too careful with their playstyle through mid game to late game, they'll lose against Serenity.

Im on the road now and it seems that the lower bracket is too bloody for SEA. Pain gaming and Invictus gaming were out I thought w33ha can bring the team up just like Resolution did.

On lower bracket this would really be tough for SEA teams because the game would be on Best of 1 which means if they lose then they would return home early. The tough thing i do saw is on the team of TNC and MNSKI
which one of them will able to get in the next opponent would be either LGD or VP.

[o_e_l_e_o]

Really happy OG went 6-2 during the second half of the group stages and pulled themselves in to the upper bracket like I thought they would.

EG looking pretty solid throughout the group stages - really looking forward to their round one match against Secret. I think that will be a very close series.

[jossiel]

-snip-

2 SEA teams has fallen. Bon Voyage Fnatic and TNC PRO Dota team.

TNC took it easily in the early to mid game but Mski's line up is totally for late game. They can't even finish the game during the early game and this is the weakness of TNC. They are very good in killings but they aren't good by ending the game and finishing with their objectives.

Looks like Serenity is doing it pretty well and that tiny support impresses me.

[jossiel]

Who are the EG fans boy here? they just won against Secret with a 2-0. The dark horse which is Team Serenity has lost against Optic Gaming, this team surely is very good in strategies.

Since Serenity has lost, I'm expecting that Winstrike will win against VGJ.Storm but it's one of the hardest team to beat in the tournament today. They were very consistent with their plays and they only lost to OG with a crucial fight.

Optic Gaming captain PPD is from EG though and he also the previous camptain on EG and with Zai too, both are a good player from EG. This team is good. VGJ.Storm is placed on top 1 on group stage, i think it will be hard for winstrike.

[Alohadanc3]

It's good to see a lot of people discussing dota2 in this forum. We all dota2 fans waiting for months to enjoy this event. And last of all Go liquid and EG.

[o_e_l_e_o]

OG are just unbelievable. Another amazing comeback for them against Storm. If only they could play that well all game long and then not need to pull off such amazing comebacks, they would be serious contenders to win it. That gives them a minimum top 6 finish - so happy for N0tail after the shitty year he has had.

Also, this line from Sumail was the highlight of the day:

"What do you think is the biggest obstacle between you and the Aegis?"
"Artour"
