That's a crazy strategy from them on the 3rd game. Mid troll and carry Anti-Mage.

It's not a crazy strategy because Troll and AM are a common picks in pub games, maybe the Troll pick was unusual but AM as a carry isn't that crazy, I think that it is actually a good one because Troll can tank the hits and as a Midlaner can help in terms of objectives which AM alone can't do in a pro DOTA scene.

It's a tournament and you don't usually pick two position 1 heroes, at the same time. I really believe that was a situational pick and they have to change the strategy when they saw the pick of ArcWarden.

Anyway that was really a pro Dota scene coming from a tier one team.

The mistake I do only saw on Hellbear is that they don't  have much hold and they do let AM farm until late game which its really hard to stop when its already almost on lock in item.

If we do observe on how Hellbear behaves between clash then you can see that they aren't synchronize and doesn't really much react varying on the situation unlike OG.
You can really see that each player does know on when to get in and get out in a certain clash.

[DOTA 2 + CS:GO, Wednesday, April 28th]

PSG.LGD vs Invictus Gaming: Invictus Gaming ML @ 1.99

Really hard to tell between these two teams since both are good but I would be sticking with IG.

Yeahh, I think OG could've won 2-0 yesterday. But they're inconsistent in the drafting phase or they were just trying something.

LGD won that match but I believe both of them are the bottom performers so far in the China region. We can assume they're still adapting to the current patch but if they couldn't do it quickly, they will lose a very good opportunity in this China DPC Upper Division.

AM will really farm if it's going late game. They should've ended the game during early and mid game. It's troll and AM in the late game.

I agree about being them(HB) not synchronized. That's the opportunity that OG saw and that's why they have never let it passed.

[DOTA 2, Friday April 30th] Today we are focused purely on CIS DPC divisions. We will watch one series from the lower division, and two series from the upper division. AS Monaco Gambit vs Winstrike will surely be the match of the day in those divisions.

Congrats on this easy win, 2-0 for HR. I just see Dendi be enjoying the competitive scene. 

[stomachgrowls]

Did make these bets too.

VirtusPro vs Unique: VirtusPro -1.5 @ 1.35
Gambit vs Winstrike: Gambit ML @ 1.45

missed out that HR vs B8
Ez pz bets.

I do always root for VP but i do have doubts between gambit vs Winstrike but it did pay off when i trusted Gambit to win the game
based off with skill and clash execution then you can really tell that theyre ahead or advantage until the late game.

Congrats mate.

Both of the teams that you have won. VP and Gambit won those matches that you've bet. And with the match that you've missed, B8 and HR.

Yeah, two easy wins for HR.

Who is with me betting to OG against Team Liquid and Nigma for 2-0 result? I believe the odds will be a pretty juicy considering OG is still underrated in terms of there current statistics and Team Liquid/Nigma has a better standings against them. I believe they sweep Team Liquid on there upcoming match since they sweep Team Secret which is the top team during last major qualifier on CIS.

I can't go for the 2-0 result. I think if OG meets Nigma or Team Liquid, it will be a close series. I know that OG must be really good to beat Secret 2-0 but it was also a close series and also we all know that Team Secret have a really bad performance after the last Singapore Major.

And also if we see the OG history matches, they were likely to drop 1 map whether they're lost or not. But after all, these matches will be great to watch so we will see. There is always a chance for 2-0 tho.

The problem on the previous match of OG was there hero line up pick same as Team Secret. But with a right combination just like what they did on Secret. They can beat any team on CIS no matter how close the fight is. Ana is already starting to adapt on the new meta unlike there match on Alliance. I know 2-0 bet is crazy but this is really possible base on the performance that I saw.

[DOTA 2, Tuesday May 11th] One series from Pinnacle Cup will be the CIS match of the day between EXTREMUM and Spirit while Tundra and Alliance are finishing up the day with their second clash of the year.

It's a tournament and you don't usually pick two position 1 heroes, at the same time. I really believe that was a situational pick and they have to change the strategy when they saw the pick of ArcWarden.

Anyway that was really a pro Dota scene coming from a tier one team.

Nope I don't think so, we didn't expect IO to be picked by Ana during the International as a carry but we did see it. I think the reason that they picked this is because they want to concentrate on objectives with Troll being able to demolish objectives with his fervor and AM's blinks that can be used for split pushing.
