Keep following the posts of rand. The recent was the BTS pro in SEA and the championship was taken by Geek Fam. For a long time, they've became now a champion with their new squad.

And the newest is the One Esports although, Beyond Epic for EU/CIS is still hotter.

Hey I would like to know how big Faze clan is in terms of their wealth, social media status, and how big they are in the Esports industry. My colleague at work, who is an avid gamer and esports fan, doesn't stop in his telling me how big they are, and I don't even know them. I even searched on this thread and I don't see that name here. So just help me become a little more enlightened and see who this clan is.

Hey I would like to know how big Faze clan is in terms of their wealth, social media status, and how big they are in the Esports industry. My colleague at work, who is an avid gamer and esports fan, doesn't stop in his telling me how big they are, and I don't even know them. I even searched on this thread and I don't see that name here. So just help me become a little more enlightened and see who this clan is.

Yes, your friend is right. FaZe Clan is top 3 biggest esports and gaming brands in the world. They do esports, entertainment, apparel and many other things. They are not focused only on esports like mostly esports teams.

On the heels of recent milestones like a $40 million series A funding round led by Jimmy Iovine, which pegged the firm's value around $250 million, and a partnership with Sugar23 productions to form FaZe Studios, "It feels like we finally have the appropriate attention that we deserve," Trink said. He has big plans for L.A.-based FaZe Clan to become an international powerhouse that dominates the entire entertainment industry.

It's quite a vision for a company that ten years ago consisted of three dudes posting YouTube compilation videos of their Xbox escapades: "like skate videos," co-founder Thomas Oliveira, better known as FaZe Temperrr, told Hypebeast, complete with "dope music" and "cool edits." Soon enough, Temperrr, along with FaZe Banks, FaZe Rain and FaZe Apex, realized there was serious money to be made in online videos. Eventually they began competing professionally, and winning. As their accolades and YouTube libraries grew, across both individual accounts and the shared FaZe-branded channels, so did the fans.

In those early days, FaZe members embraced vlogging, turning the camera on themselves as their warrior and soldier characters kicked butt and performed stunts on screen. "They were the first ones to represent themselves as gamers, totally unapologetically," Trink told dot.LA. "That woke up an enormous community of underappreciated gamers."

Today that community numbers over 215 million followers across FaZe Clan's social media platforms and those of its roster of gamers and content creators, many of whom continue to play and post under FaZe-prepended monikers. The company claims its videos yield over 500 millions views per month. A host of celebrities have invested, including musicians Lil Yachty and Offset, and professional athletes Ben Simmons and Juju Smith-Schuster; many of them consider themselves part of the crew.

A big driver of FaZe's appeal, Trink says, is that fans not only feel close to the talent, but also have a sense that they, too, could one day join the ranks.

"Not that long ago," Trink said, "we signed an 11-year-old. The proximity to be a part of us, in addition to being an extension of us, is part of what makes them so passionate."

In 2019, that passion summed to $35 million in revenue, spread more or less evenly across sponsorship and brand deals, esports, merchandise, and advertising from content. FaZe Clan has reportedly inked seven-figure partnerships with Nissan and energy drink G Fuel, and has made apparel deals with brands like Champion. In one of its recent "drops", FaZe Clan sold limited-edition $80 hoodies and $40 t-shirts in collaboration with the NFL's virtual draft this April.

"It's transcended a hobby or a pastime and has become how (fans) define themselves," Trink explained.

Some of FaZe Clan's talent live together in a house in the Hollywood Hills. Mostly men in their 20s, many of their walls are adorned with YouTube plaques commemorating subscriber milestones, reminiscent of a music star's collection of gold records. The vistas from large windows in the upscale house are beautiful. FaZe members report working hard, though, often filming throughout the day and editing their videos into the night.

Geez, I never thought that they are this big in the Esports industry. Definite they are influencers in their own right because of the many platforms that they use to spread their love of gaming and winning it at the same time. Make one feel that cryptos is not enough and just want to play so many games and filming them and then be able to spread hope to many gamers out there that there is hope in being a gamer.

[DOTA 2] Three more days until the end of Beyond Epic group stage. Picture is starting to get clear and we already see which teams are potential candidates for top 4 in their groups. Some teams like Team Secret will have a hard schedule in the upcoming 3 days, as they need to play all 5 matches.

Team Empire - flytomoon: flytomoon -1.5 @ MY BETSLIP
Team Secret - Team Unique: Team Secret -1.5 @ MY BETSLIP
Virtus Pro - Team Liquid: Team Liquid ML MY BETSLIP

MATCH: FLYTOMOON VS TEAM EMPIRE
Date: Monday, June 22nd @ 14:00 CEST

FlyToMoon is on fire. After a 2 week hiatus from the official Dota 2 matches and tournaments, they killed their first matches in this tournament. They’ve lost to Team Liquid, which was maybe expected, but they’ve destroyed Alliance, NiP and VirtusPro, all with 2-0 results. Amazing performance for them overall, they are surely top 2 Dota squads from CIS region, together with VP.Prodigy. Maybe Team Empire is the biggest surprise recently on the EU / CIS Dota scene. Their good performances earned them a spot as the 1st team of Team Empire, and since then they are creating a real chaos on the scene. With beating Alliance, and taking a map off Liquid they are surely a worthy underdog to watch for. FlyToMoon are big favourites here, as they are looking almost flawlessly in their recent matches. They are interesting to watch, they are aggressive and they have nice drafts. They should win this match, and FlyToMoon ML is the safe bet here if you can catch up to a decent odds. On the other note, -1.5 handicap on FTM is another good bet which I’m going for. It’s a big risk, but they are surely a better team than the Empire, they are capable of 2-0 Empire.

MATCH: TEAM SECRET VS UNIQUE
Date: Monday, June 22nd @ 17:00 CEST

After winning 5 tournaments in a row this year, Team Secret is back. This will be their first match in the Beyond Epic tournament. And they are opening their group A play with a match vs Unique. One of the 2 teams that managed to beat them recently. Their last match 25 days ago was a sloppy one, and Unique managed to surprise Team Secret and take the 2-0 win, in a ESL One Birmingham group stage match. Almost one month later, the situation is no different. Unique is here to try to surprise Team Secret, even though they are not in the good form right now. Unique has 4 straight losses in the group A of this tournament with the 1-8 map win-loss ratio. Team Secret are undisputedly the best team in Europe right now, and Team Unique has no chance here, or shouldn’t have a chance. Dota can always surprise us. This match should be 2-0 for Team Secret.

MATCH: VIRTUSPRO VS TEAM LIQUID
Date: Monday, June 22nd @ 20:00 CEST

I had high hopes for VirtusPro yesterday. They’ve come back to the scene after almost 1 month of hiatus. They are an amazing team, and I did think that pause will be good for them. Recuperate, analyse their mistakes, practice and adjust to the new patch. However, they’ve shown yesterday that they didn’t do anything about that. They are looking worse and worse, even worse than before the pause. 2 matches in the one day, and both losses. 0-2 vs Alliance and 0-2 vs FlyToMoon brought them last place in their group currently. Something is not working for them, and I do think they will need to change something in their lineup pretty soon. On the other side, Team Liquid already secured 1st place and playoff spot, as they have 4 straight wins for now. VirtusPro is the last team they need to play, and I do think they will win that easily. VP didn’t show anything yesterday and they are looking lost, while Team Liquid is on fire, and I’m positive that they can’t break Liquid. Only minus could be that Liquid already secured their position, and they might take this match lightly.

[rand1919]

[DOTA 2] Teams will fight for their lives in the last 2 day of Beyond Epic CIS / EU group stage. For now we have 2 teams that are secure for the playoffs, and we still have 6 spots open. Let’s see what we expect on Day 9.

Team Secret - ViKin.gg: Team Secret -1.5, 1.46 @ MY BETSLIP
Virtus Pro - Team Empire: Team Empire 1.5, 1.70 @ MY BETSLIP
Team Secret - Team Nigma: Team Nigma 1.5, 1.81 @ MY BETSLIP

Team Secret came to this league as the big favourites. Even though they need to play all their matches in the last 3 days, I doubt they will have any problems qualifying for the playoffs. In their first match they beat Unique 2-0. On the other side, Vikin.gg is one of two teams that is writing another cinderella story here at the group stages of Beyond Epic. With 3 wins and 1 loss they are currently holding 2nd place in group A. They’ve crushed B8, OG and Unique, but lost to Nigma. What can they do vs Secret? I doubt they can do much, as Secret is few levels above all other teams here. The best bet here would be 2-0 for Secret.

Virtus.Pro entered this tournament on a bad note. They’ve lost to Alliance and FlyToMoon, but they’ve managed to beat Liquid who was unbeatable until then. What a shocking win for them after 2 disastrous performances in the opening rounds. Even though Virtus.Pro is a big favourite here after their last win vs Liquid, I would give Team Empire a credit here. They are playing pretty well for a new up and coming squad to tier 1 EU tournaments. They’ve taken down Alliance, and they’ve taken maps off FlyToMoon and Liquid. Pretty decent performance and results for them for their first big tournament. With their recent play I do think they can surprise Virtus.Pro and take a map off them.

Another risky bet here. If anybody can surprise Team Secret, that’s surely Nigma. Nigma is holding 1st place currently in group A as they’ve beaten B8, Unique and Vikin.gg. Secret has to play 1 match before their match vs Nigma, and that might be too much for them. Nigma will have a chance to watch their performance in the match before and adjust tactics and drafts accordingly. They have the strength to surprise Secret. In their last 2 matches in the last 18 days, Secret dropped a map to Nigma both times. I think they can do it a third time, even though I doubt Nigma has the strength to take a whole series off Secret. W33 and Matumbaman will have to be on top level to be able to face off with Secret’s players.

✅Team Secret - ViKin.gg: Team Secret -1.5, 1.46

[DOTA 2] And here we are. The last day of Beyond Epic: EU/CIS group stage. 3 playoff spots are still up for grabs, while Team Empire and Team Unique are first teams eliminated from the tournament. Here are the final day matchups.

Team Secret - B8: Team Secret -1.5 @ MY BETSLIP
Virtus Pro - Ninjas in Pyjamas: Ninjas in Pyjamas 1.5 @ MY BETSLIP
Team Secret - OG: OG 1.5 @ MY BETSLIP

MATCH: TEAM SECRET VS B8
Date: Wednesday, June 24th @ 14:00 CEST

This is the first match that Team Secret will play today. And it should be an easier one. Team Secret are heavy favourites in this matchup. They currently have 2 wins and 1 loss. Surprisingly enough, they didn’t manage to beat Team Nigma yesterday. Nigma crushed them with clean 2-0 results, a result that not many people expected. That being said, Team Secret is still not sure to take that playoff spot. To secure top 4 they will need to win at least 1 match today. B8’s new lineup is performing much better than the old one, but still that’s not enough for top tier EU Dota. They have only 1 win out of 4 matches, and they are on the edge of being eliminated. They surely can’t beat Team Secret, and that loss will eliminate them from the tournament. Team Secret is just another level compared to B8, and Secret needs this easy win. Anything other than a 2-0 win for Team Secret would be a big surprise.

MATCH: VIRTUSPRO VS NINJAS IN PYJAMAS
Date: Wednesday, June 24th @ 17:00 CEST

Seems like VirtusPro did recuperate after their bad start in this league. After going 0-2 in the first two matches, they’ve come back with two 2-0 straight wins. They’ve crushed Team Liquid and Team Empire to shake things out in group B. VirtusPro can’t finish top 2 anymore, so they will need to fight for 3rd and 4th position now, which leads to the playoffs, but in the lower bracket. Strangely enough, both VirtusPro and NiP lost to FlyToMoon and Alliance with the same scores. NiP has only 1 win out of 4 matches, and they need to win this match if they want to advance on. But VirtusPro is playing better and better and I do think they have a slightly better chance in this match. This can go all 3 maps, and the match is way closer then odds are suggesting.

MATCH: TEAM SECRET VS OG
Date: Wednesday, June 24th @ 20:00 CEST

The best comes at the end. If Secret beats B8, like I’m expecting, they will surely secure top 4 placement in their group. That win will secure OG’s spot too. Calculations could kick in here, but 2nd place, currently held by Vikin.gg can still be up for grabs. It will be interesting to see who finishes in 2nd place from that trio – Secret, Vikin.gg, OG. It’s interesting that OG’s only loss was vs Vikin.gg, but on the other hand they’ve beat Nigma with 2-1, a team that crushed Team Secret with 2-0 yesterday. I doubt this will be so easy for Team Secret as odds suggest. I would give OG a chance to take a map, that is doable for sure. If they show their best performance they can surprise and shock Team Secret. I think there is more chance for OG +1.5 handicap here than Secret -1.5. Odds on Secret ML are too low to bet on.

Good job on the csgo bets, I went with Liquid to get 2-0 on mibr and somehow my bet doesnt pay out because that particular platform  requires me to name the exact players to top frag and I included Fallen so silly me.   The 'win' goes to someone who predicted 2-1 and how that matters more for a team game like csgo and my 2-0 is classed a loss, just lol.    Lucky Im not betting with some idea of making a profit, just running through some credits I bought years ago and hedging my bets & watching games.    I did go small on the 3 maps also but mibr dont quite have inferno under control vs harsh opposition like that, hardly a bad team.   Vitality destroyed so won that one, missed the others and I would have  agreed with your G2 as they are quite dominant not a big surprise on that result.

Congratz on your wins! However, I do think that mibr underperformed today quite a bit. They played much better last few matches, while Liquid showed up today. Pitty for my over 2.5 bet.

What platform did you use? I never heard about such system.

[STT]

Its a special system setup where the ETH tokens pay a yield to all holders from all the bets, the idea being gamblers are part of the house called herosphere.   Its not a bad idea  but as I explain its just not ok to be off on such ideas as team scores is what matters most in CSGO.    Thats my take anyway, I have credits to use up because I used to be big on alt coins and various IPO.    They might innovate and change it who knows.     They do have quite alot of special offers and cover DOTA as well, pm if you want a referral to look at it.     They always pay the first bettors in a game there so I will use them again, guess I have to be all in on the win  + hedge it perhaps.
   I believe it even allows 3rd parties to run a book for people to participate in, some clever stuff in that contract.


Bad day for that 3 map meta today :

I would have guessed 100T but leaf is on the enemy team, so good people think he isnt legit.   Ropz v.2.0

[DOTA 2] And here we are. BEYOND EPIC: Europe/CIS group stage is over. 8 teams qualified for the playoffs. 4 teams qualified directly for the winners bracket, while 4 lower ranked teams in their groups qualified for the losers bracket of the tournament. Day 1 of the playoff play is bringing us 2 sick matches in the lower bracket. Loser is out sadly.

ViKin.gg - Alliance: Over 2.5, 1.86 @ MY BETSLIP
Virtus Pro - OG: Over 2.5, 1.84 @ MY BETSLIP

MATCH: VIKIN.GG VS ALLIANCE
Date: Thursday, June 25th @ 16:00 CEST

First match of the playoff stage is here. Alliance is coming to this clash as a favourite even though their group stage performance was way worse than Vikin.gg’s. Their last clashes in the last 2 months were pretty interesting. They have played 2 times, and each team has won 1 time. Interestingly enough, Vikin.gg always took at least a map off Alliance. It’s hard to say who had the harder road in this tournament until now, but one thing is sure, that Vikin.gg played much better in the group stage. They’ve ended in 3rd place in group A with 3 wins and 2 losses. From notable results, they have 2-1 win over OG, and they’ve taken a map off very strong Team Nigma. I would even say that their clash vs Team Spirit was very even on most of the maps, as they’ve given them a lot of headaches. Secret won on their experience. Alliance finished 4th in their group B with only 2 wins out of 5 matches. They’ve beaten NiP and VirtusPro and they have surprising losses against teams like Team Empire. I do think this match will be way closer then odds are suggesting. Vikin.gg has a chance here, and with everything they showed they can surprise Alliance for sure with a map, or even a win. It will be a close match. Good bet here would be Over 2.5 or Vikin.gg +1.5 handicap if you have good odds.

MATCH: VIRTUSPRO VS OG
Date: Thursday, June 25th @ 19:00 CEST

In the last 2 months those two teams played 3 times. All 3 times VirtusPro was victorious. However, VirtusPro didn’t show anything special in this tournament. Yes, they have beat Team Liquid, but Liquid didn’t have anything to lose as they already secured their spot for the playoffs. VirtusPro ended up in 3rd place of group B with only 2 wins but with 3 losses too. With Liquid, they’ve beat Team Empire too, a team that was the first team to be eliminated in this tournament. OG ended up in 4th place in group A, but with a positive win-loss ratio. They had 3 wins and only 2 losses. Interestingly enough, they took at least a map off in all matches, except in their match vs Team Secret. Yes, they are playing better, but their form is still shaky. They are playing so differently from game to game, it’s hard to read them. And looks like their new lineup still didn’t kick in like they’ve expected. They will need a lot more preparation and practice to be able to threaten teams like Secret. VirtusPro didn’t impress me as their carry player iLTW is not performing well. I feel like NoOne is doing most of the work in VirtusPro and if he gets good hero, he will do good and carry whole team. OG has more players of this quality I think, they just need to use them in a proper way to be able to win vs VirtusPro. I’m giving a small advantage to OG too, just because of their better group stage performance. 3 maps are highly possible here too.

[rand1919]

[DOTA 2] Day 1 of the BEYOND EPIC: Europe/CIS playoffs brought us some surprises. Two teams are already out, and it’s finally time for the first matches of the upper bracket. Here are two Friday matches.

Team Secret - Team Liquid: Team Secret -1.5¸, 1.50 @ MY BETSLIP
Flytomoon - Team Nigma: Over 2.5, 1.92 @ MY BETSLIP

In the last month, Secret has played vs Liquid 3 times. Liquid didn’t win a single map, and Secret took all 3 series cleanly. Secret’s final loss was vs Team Nigma in the group stage of the Beyond Epic tournament and that’s the only series and two maps they’ve lost in this tournament. Liquid had a similar group stage performance, but they’ve lost 4 maps in total, ending group B with 4 wins and 1 loss vs Virtus.Pro. Yes, Team Secret is a big favourite here and will most probably take the match. However, I do wonder if Team Liquid has the strength and enough quality to take a map off Team Secret. Team Secret are looking so good in their matches, and the drafts are impeccable as well their ingame experience. I’m leaning more to Secret 2-0’ing Liquid here, than Liquid taking 1 map. Very risky match and bet. Sadly, betting on Team Secret ML is not worth it, odds on Secret match win are just too low, no matter who their opponent is.

Nigma is playing really well and they are the only team who managed to beat Team Secret this month. That must mean something right? Both teams ended up their group stages with 4 wins and 1 loss. FlyToMoon lost to Liquid, while Nigma lost to OG. FlyToMoon is one of the top 3 CIS teams currently. Their plays and rotations are amazing, as well as their carry player V-Tune. I can compare him to Alliance’s Nikobaby. They have the same style and are both carrying their squads pretty hard. However, this will be a really hard match for FlyToMoon, as most probably they’ve got the hardest opponent (not including Team Secret). However, I do believe they have the skill to surprise them with a map. Otherwise, Nigma are really big favourites here. Over 2.5 here / FTM +1.5 is good bet here.
