It will be enjoyable to watch the struggle of Device and Zywoo today. The NIP team caught a 9 game streak and they are on fire. Given the odds are fine I made a bet on the NIP. Astralis and Ence match will be a lot of fun. Ence team recently managed to beat teams like G2, Vitalty, but they won't be able to do that against Astralis

It was  a tough game between Vitality and NIP. Both the teams showed us some great plays but it was NIP who showed their dominance in map 3 - Inferno and put up a spectacular defensive show in CT to shut out all the T aggressions. It was like NIP having all answers to Vitality attacks and humiliated Vitality by beating with score 16-2.

As for other match, Astralis were humiliated by ENCE who defeated with quite some shocking scoreline in both maps  - 16-4, 16-7 .

Tomorrow in the Germa ESL Entropy Gaming vs touch the crown im think is a very balance match bet on draw 
Rezist vs CC Oglum Rezist should win this match they play better.
Unicorns of Love vs No Limit Gaming  easy match for unicorns they win this without problems.

I trusted Astralis a lot in the coupon I made yesterday. It was nonsensical for me to make such a choice knowing how good the Ence team was in the last matches. Ence has been a really good team lately. Also on the nuke map in the NIP-Vitality match. They got a quick win with Apex performance but it was easy for NIP in other maps. I actually have predictions for today's final matches, but I won't get coupons this time. Now I'm waiting for the major, there is little time left.

Yeah can understand your frustration, I also lost some days ago not sure who I was backing against but yeah the other team was ENCE and they defeated them quite badly. So right now, I am not making any bets on matches with them on it. Anyway right now, Nip vs ENCE is ongoing and NIP are the ones having the lead but ENCE is also not playing that bad either. So far .. a good finale...a 5 map game would make this weekend lovely.

Actually I'm surprised that Team Secret got a 1 game against LGD considering how strong LGD right now and how TS suffers 0-2 defeat yesterday against Beastcoast. Beastcoast is the real dark horse of this TI. I will not be surprise if they knock out a Tier 1 team on the bracket stage. I'm very excited to see the Clash of VP and OG against Chinese top team like LGD and Elephant in the Bracket. I'm sure they will meet on UB.

Team Secret is a strong team and they may not be par at with PSG.LGD the way we look to their performances. But I also think that Team Secret has the edge.

And talking about Team Secret's performance, I guess that they have some hidden line up of heroes that they'll bring after the group stages. BC is a strong team but their counterpart teams that are representative South America might be out at the same time tomorrow although TP is already done and eliminated.

Team secret might be in decent spot right now but i dont think they can still be in that kind of performance come the playoffs. PSG.LGD is running havoc in their bracket and basing on their current streak record, I am confident that PSG.LGD will be bringing home the aegis this time.

We're now in the main event.

Team Secret is on the upper bracket and their first opponent is none other than the TI defending champions, OG. While the good and great contender for this year's championship, PSG.LGD will be having their match against T1.

Those that are at the upper bracket have a quicker way to the finals but they also have a chance at the lower bracket once they're out of the upper bracket.

[hanspeter77]

Some littel matches next time Team Renewal vs Newhappy  im think Renewal will win, happy had a chance butt its gone be hard.
HAVU Gaming vs 1WIN  1Win had a bit better chance to win we will se what for map they play a head on head run.
Inde Irae vs AaB Esports  for sure Inde had the better chance to win they a bit stronger.

Yeah upper bracket only need 3 wins to go final while lower bracket need 6 win to go final . and on the first day of the main event, there was a big match against secret against OG. Surely many are waiting for this match. and from head to head statistic, Team Secret is more dominant than OG . because of their playstyle we will see .

it's time! Finally, it's here! Worlds 2021   Schedule here https://lolesports.com/

The statistics that you get is not based on current roster of OG. I believe most of the lose of OG to Secret is when MidOne is still there carry not with Sumail. Real stats count should be from the game where the current roster is playing because team play varies on every roster composition. I believe this is the first time they will fight with OG current roster.

Still OG on this fight.

I've went with Hanwha Life Esports and Mad Lions @2.13, taking advantage of that roster news plus Hanwha Life looked solid in the play ins.

I haven't been following Team Liquid but I prefer Mad Lions since they're the more stable team as they're able to produce consistent results this season.

Looks like people got baited again by the scrim results after that dominating game from Damwon.

GL! i have a feeling FNC are gonna get a ticket to the airport very, very soon. sad times

anyhow, LCK 2 - 0 LPL so far with DK and Gen.G absolutely stomping FPX and LNG (Gen.g win @2 odds against a team that qualified through the play-in, dumb bookies drunk af lol  )

Up next: T1 and Faker 👀

Overall, the statistics are impressive.

Basically, Team Secret is good at this current meta; I really enjoy how they play right now, and let's not forget that OG has been adjusting since two of their prior players, Ana and Jerax, retired from Dota pro. They still have a chance to win the tournament because they won the Western Europe league. Well, it's a coin flip, 50-50 for me, and I'm not sure who will win later.

That's a good backlog looking at their past matches and Team Secret is more dominant but it's always about the stats and backlog but about the achievements. OG took already 2 TI and this is likely to be their 3rd but we'll see if they'll win against Team Secret.

This team has also a lot of achievements but they're also known for having a not good run every TI. But maybe the curse is gone and one tier 1 team, EG is on the lower bracket, too bad for them.

[ralle14]

Mad Lions looked horrendous while Team Liquid execution was clean. Also didn't like that Jarvan pick from Mad lions it felt like the champion barely had any impact.

Moving back to TI, locked my picks on OG and IG @2.01 even though Secret did great in the group stages i'm still having some doubts since they lost against teams that should've been the other way around. For IG i'm just expecting a beatdown since they looked solid plus their group is more stacked.

yeah it seems that in the last few years secret has always been dominant in minor tournaments. not a major tournament like this TI   . but this time no one knows, Yea group stage A is indeed quite tight for the 4thpositions for , only 1 point difference 

[boltz]

Secret is doing it! 1-0 against 2xTI winners OG and to be honest Secret is on another level this year as they're still hiding the top strategy for more than 4 months. What this means ? It means that no one saw them playing for more than 4 months before TI so everyone is kinda in the mist of they should play against them. We saw in game 1 that OG had good picks but once again 2 picks like AA and Ember made the game to switch in their favor with just 1 fight and from them AA had free ults ...puppey is a mastermind.

[Trofo]

I knew I waited for The International for a good reason. I was a bit afraid of putting big money on BO1 games but in the end I had perfect score


Also got correct Spirit +1.5 in the morning and only one to ruin perfect day was OG. I had over 2.5 in their game against Secret.
Looking forward to the games tomorrow. PSG.LGD should have an easy time and I am probably playing over 2.5 in Virtus.pro game. Later on, probably taking OG -1.5.

And there it goes, Team Secret sweep OG and sent them to the lower bracket and let's see if Team Secret is going to continue with just a few more wins at the upper bracket.

I don't think that there's something that they've hidden as their strategy. Their picks are like typical picks that we see most of the time and there's nothing really new with it. But anyway, they've won 2-0.

[hanspeter77]

Tomorrow some cool matche sin the German ESL BIG Academy vs Playing ducks that should be a easy match for BIG think they win without problems.
Sproud vs sisi state punks here the same sproud should win with no problems.
Sissi State punks vs BIG Academy that goen be a intresed match hard to say who win im hope BIG  butt Sissi is not to bad.

Secret's drafts with just those casual line ups but it did turns out to be very effective against OG and that 2nd game was completely a stomp and they had dominated that game which it seems that they arent fighting the
2x champion team on this international but some people do say that it was intentional for them to go in lower bracket? I dont think so.

I wasnt expecting too that EG will beat up Elephant in lower bracket and also Fnatic had beat down Undying too.There are lots of unexpected events that i havent really presumed to happen.

I was eyeing in tomorrows match which LGD vs T1 which is really very exciting.
