Dota 2- The International 2019

[stomachgrowls]

For Esports lover- Here we go again on the most waited tournament each year in Dota 2.
The current total prize pool is $30,357,275 and counting.

Regional Qualifiers is already done and now we are waiting for the Group stage which would happen on upcoming August.

So guys,which team you see to take that Aegis Plaque?

During the regional qualifiers, I followed and watched the team of TJMM(Jinesbrus) and I thought they'll going to make it to Shanghai but sadly they lost to Mineski. I don't want a team that already won the TI for the past year to win this year's TI.
I can't think of what team I'll predict that will take the TI9 aegis. The tier 1 teams like PSG.LGD, VP, Secret, VG and EG has been consistent throughout the year. What I want to watch is the match between Liquid and Chaos Esports club, if you know the drama.

Too much for Liquid and same as you said i do like to see other teams whom fighting to the finals. VP,LGD,OG,EG teams are tough to beat up.
Secret would steal some spotlight yet they have won recently that Paris Major beating out Liquid.

I see some comeback names on Regional Qualifiers.

One of the hottest discussion almost every day here in one of the Mineski's Cafe branch (Mineski Infinity) just only a few kilometers at my home. Here, my friends and I always have a weekly hangout for whatever games we decided to play mostly Dota 2, LOL and ROS. Then after that, switch to mobile for Mobile Legends gaming.

Anyways, I don't want to be biased to just support a team because of the country. Most qualified teams are a hell of !@!@#$ who no doubt does have an IMBA style of gaming. Can't decide for now or should I say can't predict who will able to take the stage this time. I'm even thinking to open gambling predictions for this just back a few months ago but I'm not sure if I can handle it properly because of other chores.

Wow. The prize pool comes on a $25,532,177 to $30,357,275 within a year compared to 2017 price pool which is $24,787,916. Almost $5M was raised within a year compared to last year's $1M. Dota 2 is getting more and more serious competition now. Seems like video games doesnt destroy your future though.

This isn't just a video game anymore but it's now a career and there are sponsorships coming to the best teams because they are recognizable and professional to compete international competitions like The International.

As you can see with the t-shirts of the players, you will be surprised on how many sponsorships they have.

So guys,which team you see to take that Aegis Plaque?

Going back to the topic, I want an underdog to take the plaque this year. Remember OG last year, they were underdogs but they took the aegis. I want to see on how Jabz of team Fnatic is effective as a pos 1 after shifting from being the team's pos 5.

It does not of course if you have a great team and have a one goal. Its fun to play Dota2 and I believe it will continue to increase as many team are showing a lot of interest. I would love to see our local team TNC and Mineski to win on more competition and I also watch the games of EG and Newbee those are the great teams to watch for. I'm also a player of Dota2 and playing on a tournament is really fun and exciting, winning is the goal after all.

One of the biggest events in the world of gaming can't miss this thing. all of these guys are monsters with their skills and strategy but still, I'm rooting for my own country's team "MinesKey" whenever they win a championship it motivates a young contender in our country to play Dota 2 more.

There are so many skilled players here, I hope some of them can be given a chance to play in the international too.

The current total prize pool is $30,357,275 and counting.

I think it will still reach $35,000,000 - $40,000,000. I know there are more surprises from Valve, like bonuses or a discount just to lure the money of every player Money is money.

So guys,which team you see to take that Aegis Plaque? Cool

The International 2019 is exciting since there are new teams especially those who qualified in the regionals. But for me, those teams qualified from regional has very a little chance to win the Aegis.

I am rooting for the top tier teams, like Team Secret or OG (back to back champion? hmmm)
I know this TI will be a roller coaster for everyone, piece of advice for those bettors on upcoming The International 9, play safe  , much better if you will start to bet in the main stage, observe first.

Possible to reach up $35M yet the prize pools is still adding up and we do have still time left but i dont expect too much they already credited 10 Battle Points for each BP users yet it surpassed

on last years prize pool.

About the on betting,i do usually observe on Group staging when it comes to team performance and developments after a year because you can really see which team do have big improvement yet there
were changes in rosters.

Locking this thread yet theres similar thread that been posted related to this one.
