On the side of Dota, Entity looked good after taking down goonsquad 2-0 and the same goes for SMG as they win 2-0 against Polaris.

Goondsquad looked cute on that match against Entity. I've thought that it's going to be Goonsquad on that series but they've ended up swept by Entity.

While for the SEA, I haven't watched that SMG and Polaris game but I've watched the division 2 match of XCTN and TNC, it's a 2-1. The 3rd game, it should have been a win for TNC but yowe's medusa didn't carried them.

No BKB for his medusa against lina and other magical heroes. 

I think the goondsquad are very lucky because they can get the terrorblade to be the main carry because with this terrorblade transformation it will give a lot of damage and provide a long attack distance, so in the final match the hero they use should have shown they can win against the entity because we know the sniper who should be became the main striker but the game was not what we thought and the goondsquad was really ironic they had to lose.

Medusa is probably late to make BKB and takes time to get gold, while we know the opposing team has Bristleback, Enigma, Pugna and Lina are stunners and Me which is very annoying when they work together.

Their new post 1 literally carried the game so yeah ( thanks to VP for booting him out I guess ) and as I've mentioned before, there is a huge gap between the regular 1st division and 2nd division in WEU region therefore its not really that surprising because Entity was 6th on the last DPC but atleast they survived the relegation.

Navi vs Team Spirit tomorrow. Navi has won the last two games in a row with 2-0 so thats something, this is going to be interesting

Navi is the new rising star in the EEU. They recently sweep Betboom which is one of the best on there region together with TS. Navi master the current meta and maybe they can now have a shot again tier tournaments to finally get DPC points that are essential on securing TI spot. Its been so long since Navi compete on Majors and TI since they change to this roster. I hope they can finally bounce as an avid fan of this team since Dendi rime days.

friendly reminder that the PUBG Nations Cup 2022 starts today  So far the only crypto friendly bookmaker that i've seen offering lines for this event was EGB. And based on the odds it seems like China are the main favorites with USA and South korea slightly behind. Should be a fun tournament

Very interesting when looking at prizes until 16th got $8,000 USD, this means all participants (16 countries, including Indonesia) will receive the money

list of participants:

Argentina, Brazil, Canada, United States
   
China, Japan, South Korea, Chinese Taipei
   
Finland, Germany, Turkey, United Kingdom
   
Australia, Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia

if lose and get the lowest rank (16th) will get: $1,600 USD for each team, so my question is, Is there any registration fee?

Does anyone make a bet between the match of NigmaGalaxy versus T1? this game is so insane with their drafting and heroes picking they really fan now with the Dawn breaker and Visage with this update and kuku keep spamming this as an offlaner, The first game it seems like a balance because of the draft but once Gabbi get the terror blade this is a game-changer also puck cannot do anything to burst the TB. At the second game it is already dominated by the Monkey king because of the early kills and now getting the snowball with the tiny can get a farm with the moon shard and get triple rampage by Karl.

OG is wrecking everyone.  Flamez ace'd fairly easily vs a team far ahead of his on their map pick I was just watching.

yeah i'm gonna go out on a limb and say that they're a fluke  now i might be a little upset cos OG messed up one of my bets the other day, but tbh, 2-0'ing ENCE yesterday with F1ku looking like the best csgo from poland and degster, a stand-in, is the stand out player? nah i don't buy it :⌃)

The quarterfinals scheduled for tomorrow seem spicy as we have Faze vs Navi and ENCE vs Vitality.

ENCE ml for me and i'll wait for the map picks in Faze v Navi to place another single on either twistzz or rain Total kills, both of them keep hitting over 17.5 or 18.5 kills lately

[ralle14]

Holy cow that game 2 between NS vs T1 ended up closer than what i've expected and it was interesting to watch as it felt like T1 was just stalling the game knowing they're struggling to engage a front to back team fight against NS. T1 giving up the soul and elder a bunch of times but at the same time both sides getting wiped through the team fights as they contest elder and baron during the late game. NS on the other hand, had most of the objectives they need to win but their coordination is just lacking.

ENCE ml for me

I'm also leaning on ENCE later, not sure about the Faze series though as both teams looked a bit off this tournament.

Kuku should just avoid playing the heroes like Enigma. He's good at Visage and he should just spam that hero for every game that they play and we'll see a respect ban for those teams that see him play good at it.

Gabbi on the second game just showed how inyourdreams should play monkey king. That medusa was no tank and I mean that the whole team of Nigma.Sea has been devastated from early game until the end.

Holy cow that game 2 between NS vs T1 ended up closer than what i've expected [...]

ppl who didn't watch the series would think it the usual 2-0 stomp from T1 but that was probably the best 2-0 series in a while. It's clear that this NS roster has potential but mentally they're in another dimension. They really need to face some weaker sides and see if a win can bolster their confidence. Looking forward to NS next game, odds should be generous with their 0-2 record

anyhow, i almost forgot LEC Summer split starts today. Rogue v Fnatic in a few hours, let's see if i can recover from FaZe Clan getting absolutely deleted by NaVi (map 2, 14-1 first half for navi, lol) which completely destroyed my bets   edit* name of the game is csgo teams: Weekend Ruiners

In the quarter-finals, Navi and Faze won 2-0 maps in the match and Navi made it to the semi-finals very comfortably. Faze was able to win a total of 7 hands on 2 maps. I was observing a decrease in the team, but I can say that it was too much. They could only win 1 hand on the inferno map they chose, it was like a joke. S1mple showed itself well in this match. There is a Vitality-ENCE match tonight, I trust Ence for this match. But it has to be taken into account that his Vitality made a debut.

[execijutiere]

In the Navi-Faze match, Navi had a clear advantage. We can see that the sdy/boombl change has changed a lot. They beat the map they didn't pick with a clear advantage of 16-1. They played a good game as a team and became og's opponent in the semifinals.

Vitality takes a 1-0 lead over Ence. He managed to win the map he picked himself. Ence picked the next map.  The map they picked is nuke. Their winning percentage is much higher than vitality. It may come down to the last map.

Navi is the new rising star in the EEU. They recently sweep Betboom which is one of the best on there region together with TS.

Yet they were beaten straight 2 maps by Team Spirit. It wasnt that surprising though, I mean Team Spirit was the winner of the previous TI and yet they are under performing for quite some time so I bet they are trying to secure their direct invitation by racking points as much as they can in DPC

Glad that I didnt bet on over 2.5 maps. I was about to do and decided to take a single betslip on Outsiders which turned out to be good

Yeah, Pure was trained well and now we're seeing how improved it was. Well, WEU and EEU are likely the most both competitive regions right now. Can't argue with that despite I'm fan of the SEA because they're also strong but this is a fact for these two regions.

Navi vs Team Spirit tomorrow. Navi has won the last two games in a row with 2-0 so thats something, this is going to be interesting

Not this time.

They're the ones swept by Team Spirit and had it 2-0. I'm starting to notice the increasingly number of picks for zeus these days.

[execijutiere]

In the esl pro league qualifiers endpoint-order match, endpoint defeated their opponent and secured their place in esl pro league. Nertz was the player who dominated the match. Kjaerbye hasn't made much of an impact at the moment. But I think it was a good transfer for them.

In the other qualifying match, Mibr defeated his opponent. Tyloo is actually made up of good players. But he can't show his strength.

[Peanutswar]

Of course the awaiting team to play again which is the previous Ti Champion Team visit versus another Ti Champ at the first era of Dota Navi, at the early phase of the game one it is already in favor with the navi because the TS does not make an aggressive move they made before in the Grand finals and mostly teams now are fan with the Venomancer offlane, and this is not quite effective in late game, zues and void get too much farm because of the mistakes streaks did by the Navi that cause them to lose the game number one.

[ralle14]

ENCE looked like a different team when they fought Vitality was expecting a close match and they can't even take their own map pick where Vitality is struggling these past couple of months.

Looking forward to Entity vs OG later today, leaning on the side of Entity+1.5 @1.6 as I think they have what it takes to grab a map and potentially win the series after the surprising things OG did against Tundra.

There are also two rematches on the Blast semi-finals with Vitality vs G2 and Navi vs OG. Over 2.5 seems juicy for both series.

Entity does stand a chance to get a map out of OG, but I think OG's playstyle isnt easy to read and should be too much to handle for the Indian Organisation, playing in EU division(Entity). OG(CS go) is up against Navi and I think S1mple has returned to form and will most likely just beast his way to a win. OG did beat Navi, the last time they met but Navi at the moment are catching fire, after beating Faze  convincingly 2-0.

[boyptc]

Boom Esports and Talon Esports on game 3 now. The first two games were closed and game 2 was likely a win already for the Talon despite they didn't do well at the early game.

Kpii played good for his Nature's Prophet and he's the one that has given space for all of his teammates.

Now, it's game 3 and still a close fight, on going.

[Balmain]

The EF team won 16-7 on the dust 2 map chosen by hummer, the first map of the Eternal fire and Hummer match of the Esl 16 conference matches. Xantares played a good game, he gave a comfortable map to the EF team with this game, the next map will start soon and will be played on the overpass map.

On the other hand, the Blast Premier semi-finals draw attention today. In the semi-finals, the first match will be played between Navi and OG. No matter how much OG's good performance has impressed me lately, Navi is very strong. In the G2 vitalty match, on the other hand, it seems closer to me to place a bet over 2.5 rather than picking a winner.

Eternal fire defeated their opponent and qualified for esl pro league season 16. Xantares showed a dominating performance and won dust2 comfortably. Although they had a hard time in overpass of their choice, they knew how to win. Xantares and xfloud played well. When imorr became igl, woxic's performance increased noticeably.

The Og-navi match will be a battle of 2 really strong teams. But I think navi is one step ahead. As for the G2-vitality match, I think G2 will win.

Well I took OG -1.5 for this but it was a parlay bet and I kinda regretting my decision right now  . I could have cash them out right now with a little bit over 2x of my stake as winning but yeah Im taking this chances. Either way, Im going to end the day in profit because I had decent stake earlier on Boom vs Talon for over 2.5 maps

Its not looking good right now because GG won the 1st map
