It's going to 3rd map, NIP is destroying G2 on Nuke.
Nuke is g2's kryptonite lol

as expected Brollan stepped up a gear and the team delivered. Really hope NIP can beat MOUZ, i feel like they can put up a fierce fight in the playoffs, unlike Mouz who imo are overperforming

Crazy to witness Vitality and G2 get knocked out by Mouz and NIP respectively.

IEM cologne = IEM upsets.
Movistas Riders winning a map vs NaVi is all i need to confirm this is the tournaments of upsets. If the spaniards beat NaVi, i'll probably bet on them to win every match in playoffs lol or at least Mopoz and SunPayus to pop off with 20+ kills, they've been so good lately

T1 Esports 1,4
Fredit BRION 2,7

if you see T1 at those odds again, take it, free money,, except when they play vs GenG

Navi- broke the winning streak of Movistar Riders and became the final team. Movie Riders has been showing this feat for months, and it's been one of their best performing tournaments IEM Cologne I just want to say NT Movistar Riders. Currently, Astralis-FaZe match is being played in the last match of group B, and the winner will play the final match with Navi. On the Overpass map, FaZe got off to a good start with 12-3 first half, after the first half ended, Astralis had a comeback streak, but that wasn't enough and FaZe won the first map of the series.

Natus Vincere scared me after risking their ticket for the quarter finals of the tournament. They had a really bad start against Movistar Riders by losing the first game on Inferno by 16-9. They needed to win two games in a row which was not an easy task. Movistar Riders started the second game on Mirage really good too but Natus Vincere still didn't give up and turned the game around. They were very comfortable on last map which was on Overpass. They finished the first half 12-3 ahead. Even though their opponent showed some resistance in the second half Natus Vincere still finished the job and eliminated them. Congrats to them but they should be more careful from now on.

I tried. But at the moment when I clicked "place a bet" there was a fight for the dragon from which FB did not come out and in a couple of minutes the game ended (unfortunately my bet was not accepted) if I had won it would have been the fastest LOL bet in my memory. But I managed to make another easy bet (although during the game the odds grew to 1.8 if I remember correctly):

Brollan = 57 kills
Followed by Rez(expected) at 47 kills
NIP still got 2 bots, I don't see them going anywhere with pricetag and flopski. Brolland and Rez deserve better 

Furia getting destroyed by pogkinder now

Navi beat Movistar Riders. But I didn't think they would struggle so much. Movistar Riders have been playing really well lately.They gave every team a hard time. NaVi's star Simple was able to carry the team.Movistar Riders are really putting in an incredible performance. I don't think anyone thought they would be able to push such good and strong teams.

Nip beat Mouz. I didn't expect Mouz to beat nip. Nip didn't make an appearance on Mirage map.

Because of there loss, They are now relegated to Division 2 once again where they really belong. 

Pretty sure that they are going back up on the next DPC but their main concern is not getting back up to division 1 but to qualify TI through regional qualifier which Im sure that they wouldnt be able to given how they play throughout the DPC


Decided to take a risky bet on PSG.LGD earlier today, glad that it worked out and the odds was amazingly good. Here's my catch though, it wasnt a single bet slip and I had the chance to cash them out but I didnt 



I had the chance to cash them out at around 4.28 odds after Outsiders won the 1st map but I choose not to, oh well it was sucks because I should have gone with a single slip instead

As expected on the yesterday match between Alliance and Entity, Weeha and the gang is not on the level anymore of Division 1 teams. Weeha keeps caught off guard and entering in the clash without clear objectives while there support is useless. I can see the pain of Nikobaby as carry to work with team like this.

Because of there loss, They are now relegated to Division 2 once again where they really belong. 

Too many good teams have been relegated to Division 2 and next to that region to be sent into that division is likely goonsquad, they've got s4 and limmp there.

Whilst on China, it's likely Ehome will be also going to division 2. Their roster is unknown unlike the other participants that are The International caliber players for the roster.

And on SEA, it's like Nigma.Sea will join Polaris on division 2.

MOUZ have been the most surprising team of the IEM Cologne tournament so far. Because they have eliminated really tough opponents until this stage like Heroic, Vitality and NIP. They are in the quarter finals against Astralis. If they get past them too then they are NaVi's opponent in the semi finals. Maybe it could be the end for MOUZ but reaching even that stage would be a big success for them.

NIP were the in form team comparatively and they had beaten Mouz 3 months ago while going the distance(3 maps) and that happened again today but Mouz came up on top. Frozen, Torzsi and Bymas were absolutely pivotal that showed up on pretty much all 3 maps. The absolutely dismantled NIP in the 3rd map with the shocking 16-4 scoreline in the decider Mirage map.

I had the same bet on V5 yesterday, their odds are too nice against a struggling EDG squad. They're on pace to secure first place again and I hope they'll have a better performance in the playoffs.

It is surprising to me that Liquid beat C9 this easy (2-0: 16-11, 16-9).

It's also surprising that Liquid manage to survive the lower bracket of the groups and qualify, I had low expectations from them at the start since they're playing with a stand-in.

League of Legends Champions Korea Prediction and picks,

Hanwha Life Esports VS T1

Stake odds for this game are 8.60 for Hanwha Life Esports while 1.05 for T1, This could be the 7th loss for Hanwa Life Esports, but if they win this will be their 2nd win considering they can win against T1, and for T1 their 8th win and if they lose their 2nd lost, for me this is going to be a 1 sided match considering the odds it is not good to bet directly on a T1 win, for me I will bet on Correct Score (in Map) in Stake.com betting for T1 I could say this will be a 0 - 2 Map win for T1, at 1.31 and will be betting like this and my pick for this game will be T1,

Gen.G Esports VS Sandbox Gaming

Stake Odds for this game are Gen.G Esports is 1.16 while Sandbox Gaming has 4.90, GEN.G is considered 1 of the top teams in League of Legends Champions Korea, and in this Tournament, they now had 7 wins and only 1 loss, while Sandbox Gaming has 5 wins and 2 losses, which make the Sandbox Gaming in a tight spot on the odds, for this game, I think Sandbox has a chance to win only 1 map on the game so I will be giving a 2 - 1 Correct Score (in Map) in Stake.com at 3.25 Sandbox Gaming may take 1 map but Gen.G is a pretty much higher team that can compete with T1, fr me I will be betting like this and my pick will be GEN.G,

Yeah pretty impressive game by MOUZ last weekend, I didn't expect them to look so good. The first two maps where still pretty equal but in the third map they crushed NiP. As for this weekend games it will be some nice matches coming up. MOUZ has now to play against Astralis which will be a close game, I expect to Astralis to get through but it could go either way, I am not betting on that match. In the end it doesn't matter much because the winner will face NaVi and I don't think that either of them has a real chance to beat NaVi in a bo3 match. Team Liquid vs Movistar Riders is another close match that could go either way, also not betting on this one. The winner will then play against FaZe in the semi finals which is going to be a win for Faze for sure. So both FaZe and NaVi are going to win the semis and will play in the finals against each other. So far FaZe didn't lose a single map, they are on fire again. I will go with FaZe to win IEM Cologne 2022.

Happy Seals have been relegated from Div 2 in Dota2 DPC after loosing to TooBased 2-1 and it looked like they kinda trow the game ...at least the 3rd one. Anyway , plenty of games of Dota 2 today as I'm patiently waiting for ViCi vs EHOME as that should be an entertaining one to watch and after that , we have Secret vs Goonsquad and this is a revenge game as Goonsquad beat Secret in their last face-off.

[execijutiere]

The esl challenger melbourne matches start today. The teams I think will win the match are Forze, Sprout, Heet and Entropiq. I think the Sprout-Rare Atom and K23-Heet matches will be more enjoyable.
Apart from this tournament, the sazka ecup tournament is also starting.
The favorite is of course the Sinners team but there is a high chance of a surprise. The final match will most likely be between SinnerS and Enterpise.

[ralle14]

we have Secret vs Goonsquad and this is a revenge game as Goonsquad beat Secret in their last face-off.

I thought this is the first time these two teams will meet as Goonsquad came from the second division last tour. Anyway, hoping for a clean 2-0 Secret win since every other good team in their region took them down 2-0.

After the Secret vs Goonsquad series, there's also Tundra vs Gladiators later. Tundra's handicap @2.02 seems tempting but I feel like they'll drop a map now that they've qualified.

[tomahawk9]

i was on a winning streak until JDG dropped a map against RA yesterday and my ticket lost,,
no worries, couple of winning singles today to lift the spirit:



ForZe x1.5 odds and Entropiq x.1.6 vs unranked teams seemed pretty decent

i was really close to going full Dota today with +1.5 Goonsquad and Gaimin Gladiators, dodged a bullet
huge game for Liquid tomorrow, if they lose they'll go to a tiebreaker, right?

Yup, if they lose against OG they'll join the tiebreaker together with Entity and Secret.

The classic 2-1 by JDG they've been like that for the past few weeks, it seems like they prefer a closer series over a clean 2-0.

There was a big change in Eternal fire. Paz, maj3r and coach hardstyle from the old space soldiers squad joined the team. xantares played with this trio before. I think this squad is the best squad in Turkey again. But there may be problems at first. After all, this trio was continuing its path in valorant. I think it was good for them and the fans to return to cs:go again. They have the ESL tournament ahead of them. Until then they have to prepare hard and we will expect them to represent us well.

Eternal Fire have made a wonderful change. I think that they definitely needed it. Because something was going on really wrong with the team. There were huge strategy problems and I thought that it was related to the coach as well. So I'm happy that they have changed the coach with one of the bests in Turkey, hardstyle. I'm very excited about the MAJ3R and paz additions to the team also. These were doing awesome in the legendary Space Soldiers roster. It's not good to see xfl0ud being benched but he can still come back later on. I hope to see this team at much higher levels in time from now on.
