I apologize. I believe that this has already been indicated in this topic, but where can I find a complete list of all types of e-sport tournaments that exist?

https://liquipedia.net/
That website covers most of the esports games that we have and also the tournaments that they have, finished-ongoing-upcoming tournaments.
It includes amateur tournaments and as well as professional leagues for esports.

Thank you very much.
It was something of the genre I was thinking about. I'll take a closer look.

The first two games between TOP and Suning was very unexpected Suning had a big lead in first game then all of them quickly died while sieging the inhib and lose, next game it was TOP's turn to throw their bodies at Suning's base when they had every big objectives and advantage in their hands. Third game was just a quick stomp from TOP, the fourth game Suning had the better draft but TOP with the better execution.

Not the best idea to bet against RNG today but I might have to since FPX can go toe to toe with their drafts, Doinb going for unpredictable picks on mid, and Xiaohu doing the same on the top lane. The other roles are pretty even too so i'll go for a small play on FPX @2.28 and it all comes down on the drafting once again.

Outstanding performance from FPX. They win both games within 30 minutes. They are absolutely outperforming RNG in macroing the game. Tian has a great game today and I guess this man will be voted as MVP of this match. However, everything is not yet finished because this is a BO5 match

Currently, I am still watching and hope that FPX will dominate RNG
Edit:
FPX has won significant combat with an ace while only loses 2 members. Next, they easily take down the baron

Last edit:
3-0 for FPX. Cant wait to see them fighting in the final

You're welcome. There are a lot of esports games that are listed on that website but if you're into a particular game only, it's okay because it's likely that you can also find it there. Aside from the tournaments, the update includes change of roster, a change of team, some personal information of the professional esports players is also there. It's like the most popular game stop for everyone who looks for such information although there are also some others that has been and hasn't been mentioned.

(and even some obscure ones)

What do you mean by that? I got curious. What kind of games are we talking about?

games that you rarely see anyone mentioning in forums or social media, not just when talking about esports, but in general. For instance, last year i saw games like osu! and Metin2 popping up in a few esports bookies (who knows why they but i haven't seen them showing up again), and i've never heard of those games before and idk anyone who has played those games, so they're unknown and obscure to me :-P

I choose here
https://ggscore.com/en/dota-2/i-league-2021/group/ehome-vs-rng-355728

I watched few games including Elephant vs. RNG today on JeevesDotaTV (twitch). I think he has covered all the games so far.

thanks for the links 👍

Nice. Good odds on FPX
good thing this is stress free wednesday for me, otherwise, i woulda started the day with a losing ticket cos i expected a much closer match. I have a feeling we're gonna see something similar in the next match (EG - TES)

Yes, from what I've seen, I already found interesting games that are not very popular. I found the site impractical, but maybe I haven't noticed everything it has yet. I'll stay tuned. Thanks again.

I see! Thanks. I happen to be looking to see if I can find one related to Euro Truck Simulator 2. I "heard" it but I never found anything. I have to search further.

FPX played that series so well wasn't expecting a 3-0 sweep given how good RNG dominate the season and FPX looking much scary after every series win.

On to the next we have EDG vs TES, EDG is like the team where once they get a good gold lead going it's pretty much secured while TES is willing to go for these double edge plays that could go either way and this is why I think EDG lost their series in the regular season against TES.

I'll take TES @1.53 the odds aren't attractive but i'm going to stick with my gut, we'll see if EDG could adjust and have solutions against TES aggro style.

i can help. I'll try to see if i can find something about it  (;

damn it! bookies are making bank!


this is bullcrap and there's no way i'll put money money on RNG - TES  

i did put some money on Heroic - NiP over maps and Astralis moneyline tho...the latter is gonna be a banger! INF-VER-OVP map picks? could see this going to the decider if astra doesn't fck up in their map pick

edit*

what a day

[hanspeter77]

Next go:
Complexity Gaming vs Ninjas in Pyjamas that gone be a hard match for Ninjas the best days are over at this team this is sad.
Ninjas was so good for 3 years one of the top teams and now they lost much power. 

[ralle14]

damn it! bookies are making bank!

Yeah brutal loss, TES winning their lanes from the start but they struggle mid to late game, the only one keeping them together every game was their jungler Karsa with those dragon and baron steals and I must say EDG adapted well by matching their aggression. TES could've snagged at least one game since the last game was their game to lose, they had the better draft and even had a decent gold lead during the early phase but EDG always know their kill priorities by bursting down the enemy carry before the fight starts.

No league today so it's time to go back to CS and I like that stake brought back their first map insurance.
Taking Complexity to win vs NiP @1.44 odds says it all Complexity looking solid and NiP looked okay vs Heroic started out strong at the first half of each map then slowly lost momentum during the second half.

This site is great and is a top level english professional soccer league for football clubs affiliated with the Premier League Football Association. Competing by 20 clubs each season this is one of the most anticipated and must discuss league watch clubs in the world of club football making the Premier League so exciting even below the first ranked league table.

And do you know any soccer tournament, for beginners?

Another website that could be helpful is www.gosugamers.net. They also have news regarding team shuffles and upcoming tournaments. One good thing I like about Gosugamers is that it has a ranking system that shows which team is really great among different regions. You could also do betting within their website but they are still not using Cryptocurrencies at the moment.

[tomahawk9]

a small recovery after 3 consecutive lossess yesterday (:



FURIA - Astralis is a tremendous toss up imo so i'd rather skip it and wait for the semifinals tomorrow. Also looking forward to the LCK and LEC matches, anyone else? G2 and DAMWON will most likely go to my saturday betslips

nice promo. Max amount is a bit low imo, but still, you don't see these type of promos very often in crypto bookies 👍

You're welcome, keep on digging the website because it's for esport that you can imagine.

I've used gosugamers during the old Dota days but liquipedia just came out and it became more popular. I missed the old days but this is also a good resource that you've brought up, it's also a known website even til' now.

FURIA - Astralis is a tremendous toss up imo so i'd rather skip it and wait for the semifinals tomorrow.

Good thing you skipped, like you predicted it was quite a surprise that FURIA won it. I am a fan of FURIA but yesterday I was also supporting Astralis to go ahead and plan a revenge against Gambit who are 3-0 up against Danish side in this last few H2H meetings but it came out to be quit opposite.

It further shocked me when Train (Astralis map pick) was finished with 16-2 FURIA scoreline.   

[tomahawk9]

as everyone expected (except dumb bookmakers, all of them had the handicap at 1.7x, thanks for the odds 😂), Damwon won comfortably, a walk in the park, ez money, ez life


Gen.G giving Senna to Ghost, big brain move there 🤣

later today, G2 - Rogue...could we see another stomp today? i think so, got my eyes on the -1.5 handicap. But first, FURIA - Heroic over maps at 1.95. Hopefully, this will be a close match, been saying that for Heroic for a while now but every match is a breeze for them. Let's see if FURIA can keep that momentum going

they've been so bad lately, just painful to watch.  And BLAST Premier starts next week so there's no time to analyze what just happened, gotta prepare for that first match against OG, a team that have a fresh blood in the roster with NiKo and FlameZ...quite the debut for these guys, eh? against no other than Astralis

I really like G2 as well going for a small play on the -1.5 handicap @2.04 since they took care of Rogue 2-0 in the regular season.

As for Furia and Heroic, i'll take Furia at plus odds I honestly think this one might end up 2-0 for Furia since i'm not convinced enough on Heroic's 2-0 win against NiP during the play ins.

Edit : Rip G2, they kept going for those weird Karma drafts that never works and Rogue's jungler was just feasting throughout the early game.

They were so good in 18-19 and even in 20's they were performing good but after those breaks it was all upside down.  I still recall how good they used to be with Train and in Inferno. Their Inferno map control was also so good back then. Now they have lost their shine.

OG should be an easy one for Astralis but still can't be sure as both are having quite a bad performance ... OG a bit more on bad performance side so Astralis should win that one.

As for Furia and Heroic, i'll take Furia at plus odds I honestly think this one might end up 2-0 for Furia since i'm not convinced enough on Heroic's 2-0 win against NiP during the play ins.

Furia and Heroic is a toss up. Heroic are a good team struglled a bit earlier but are also playing some good CS. On other hand Furia are a very agressive team. It's like a martingale strat we have in dice, if it pays out then it will sure win you the match but if someone reads your play like a book then Furia are gone. I also placed quite a trust on brazillian side but the opponents were good enough to counter their aggressive plays. It's a risky one.

So far it seems like ESL Pro League winner should be Gambit. And if they win then I think they will get the #1 spot. They are right now #3.    impressive for a team who wasn't taken as a serious contender couple months ago and now are running over all the top teams like crazy. <- Any comments on this one? What do you guys feel? Is it that all the other teams are playing bad CS or Gambit is really good.

[batang_bitcoin]

Got some roster changes for Fnatic and Team Nigma. W33 of Nigma is out and replaced by ILTW and will play the same role 1 or 2. Whilst for Fnatic, they got ChYuan as offlane. And there's another one, Sylar going back in action in Ehome, replacing Ahjit.

The LPL semifinals starts in less than an hour, I got FPX to win @1.8 vs EDG one of the main reasons why I favor FPX here is the jungle matchup EDG's jungler didn't stood out as much in the last series against TES and Tian's performance is great throughout the playoffs.

So far it seems like ESL Pro League winner should be Gambit.

I'm also expecting Gambit to take it all but man after that series between NiP specifically the second map Heroic might have a solid chance tbh.

It feels like Heroic is the value pick on this series since their second half performance against NiP and Furia was very clean.
