Similarly, Furia failed to live up to expectations and lost to PaiN. I must say I was more surprised by this loss. Although Furia performed very well throughout the tournament, he was stagnant against PaiN. PaiN took advantage of this and eliminated his opponent.

Both underdogs clutched up yesterday to book their ticket to the semis. Furia was close to getting the win, but they threw that series away after failing to convert the bonus rounds and one of their players had one of the best starts on Inferno from 18-6, and suddenly finished with an 18-20 KD after OT.

We're now down to the last quarterfinal of the playoffs, and i'll back Faze to beat the MongolZ @1.60, I expect a close series with Faze getting it done on the decider.

Lost my bet with Furia and good luck to all the CS2 bettors here. I'm back for Dota 2 and with the PGL Wallachia Season 5. Too many games and they're played as of typing this but I have only bet for one game, and that's with NaVi against the Nigma Galaxy. And even this is Navi Jr, I migh try my luck with them. So, it's a good try @2.40.

Vitality managed to beat Natus Vincere as expected. I must say that it was a bit difficult to win because the maps were close. Despite NaVi's lack of form, they still held their own against Vitality, a team that has been in form of late. Mezii and Zywoo made a bit more of a difference.
Faze couldn't win against Mongolz. After losing in 2 maps with close scores, FaZe will not be able to continue in the tournament. S1mple had a bad performance this match. I expected better from him but I think he couldn't handle the stress. He was the worst player in the team.

Nigma Galaxy failed to pull off the reverse sweep, so congrats on your NaVi ticket. They face Team Liquid tomorrow, and I might try their handicap since the odds are leaning heavily on the side of Team Liquid despite not having Insania.

The first semi-final match ended earlier with Vitality securing their spot in the grand final, but still, props to Mouz for making the series competitive since it would've been another 2-0 if it were another team.

I've got the MongolZ to win on the last match of the day, and I hope they lock it in because this is one of the rare opportunities where they're given an easier path to the grand final.

Vitality managed to beat Mouz 7 times in a row. Torszi could not hold back his tears after this match. Vitality continues to dominate the teams. Although Mouz played well on the Inferno map, they could not play on the Train map, wrong choices made the game lose the map. Vitality is in the final so far. Pain and MongolZ match is being played, MongolZ will probably beat Pain. Senzu and other team players are in great form in MongolZ, MongolZ has managed to progress continuously, they are currently in good form in tournaments, I wonder what they will do against Vitality. Right now, they seem to be winning the first map, although I am talking a little early, MongolZ is a very good team.

I also saw that post-match interview, and the interviewer (Sjokz) handled it so well. It's unfortunate that Mouz started on the T side when Train is a CT-sided map, and Vitality made sure to cement their spot through that dominating first half.

The other series ended way too fast. I thought the MongolZ were in trouble when paiN had a 5-0 start, but they suddenly had a drought and lost the next 13 rounds to give the MongolZ a 1-0 lead. The momentum of the MongolZ carried on to the next map (Anubis), and the damage was already done before paiN could start a comeback in the second half.

[execijutiere]

Vitality won against Mouz and won 7 times in the matches against Mouz.Since they have always lifted the trophy in tournaments after facing Mouz, it should be said that they can lift the trophy again in the final.ApeX and his team continue to progress as a truly unstoppable force and seem to have their eyes on all the trophies in 2025.I wonder who will stop them.They will most likely win the trophy by defeating mongolz in the final.

I wonder who will stop them.They will most likely win the trophy by defeating mongolz in the final.

The only thing stopping them is probably another bo1 format since that's what snapped their 30-win streak.

I've also got Vitality to win 2-0 (at 1.85) for the grand final, as the odds for the match winner aren't worth it (at 1.20). The map pool favors Vitality, so this series should be easier than yesterday against Mouz. Then again, they could still drop a map if the MongolZ continue to overperform and they somehow get off to a cold start.

Although I don't really understand CS but I think MongolZ gave a tight fight this time. If you're watching this match I'm sure you must be thinking the same thing that this match will probably end 2-1. I think MongolZ also has a great chance of winning.






XG vs BB, looking at these stats XG actually has a chance to win the match. But as I recall BB is one of the teams that have pretty good skills. I hope there will be a long match over 2.5

Betboom is pretty much like GG. They are a pretty good team but to expect them to win the whole tournament is just another story.


No one took Aurora to win over XG today? odds was 1.74 when I took it and it was pretty decent, parlayed it with -1.5 Team Spirit. If I could rewind time, I probably would have avoided -1.5 on Team Spirit. It was a pretty bad bet base on the odds, risky for only 1.44x return. Glad that I won but Edge is a pretty decent team actually because they won against Betboom on the 1st day



2.55 combined odds

Congrats, MongolZ showed up on their map pick, and Vitality quickly bounced back once they got to Dust 2. I expected MongolZ to lose momentum heading into this series, but they remained locked in, and that bad start from Vitality came true.

This should be a 2-1 done deal now for Vitality as they're back in their scary form, and the awper of the MongolZ isn't feeling it anymore as he's bottom fragging on the leaderboard.

I've won this bet.

Too many games and they're played as of typing this but I have only bet for one game, and that's with NaVi against the Nigma Galaxy. And even this is Navi Jr, I migh try my luck with them. So, it's a good try @2.40.

Nigma Galaxy failed to pull off the reverse sweep, so congrats on your NaVi ticket. They face Team Liquid tomorrow, and I might try their handicap since the odds are leaning heavily on the side of Team Liquid despite not having Insania.

Thanks, I've skipped their match yesterday and now that they're already on the round 3, I've only bet for two matches. OG and Heroic. Not that a lot but maybe Heroic can pull their first series win against Avulus.

[execijutiere]

Vitality managed to win their major by beating Mongolz in the final. Really they are on a legendary run and they managed to win all the main tournaments in 2025. Very interesting but true. It is not yet clear who will stop Vitality and when, and they have become the heavy favorite in every tournament. Although they lost the first map, they showed a great performance by winning the other 2 maps. Especially IGL apeX getting so many kills helped the team win more comfortably.

[ralle14]

OG had an underwhelming series, but at least Heroic saved you from going 0-2 for the day.

There are only two series left for today, and i'm more interested in the Nigma Galaxy match, so i'll be betting on them to win against VP. Surely, the third time's the charm for them since they've had one of the easier matchups throughout the first three rounds.

[len01]

Betboom is pretty much like GG. They are a pretty good team but to expect them to win the whole tournament is just another story.

But yesterday, BB won by a landslide, with XG not putting up any resistance. I'm sure you have your reasons for doubting that BB will win the whole tournament. Would you like to share your doubts about BB, if you don't mind?

This should be a 2-1 done deal now for Vitality as they're back in their scary form, and the awper of the MongolZ isn't feeling it anymore as he's bottom fragging on the leaderboard.

One of the things I love about Vitality is how calmly it implements strategies and achieves perfect finishes with little bluffing. So, despite MongolZ putting up a fight, I have to applaud Vitality's victory.




As I recall TS has always done a quick turnaround without wasting time. With this I think that the match will end under 45.5. Meanwhile, Navi doesn't look like her old self anymore and looks a little worse for wear.

Believe it or not I believe the NG and VP match will have drama on map 1 even though Nigma will win the match.

910 fell off the game a lot on dust and inferno map, there was no frag contribution, he almost couldn't get kills throughout the rounds. Vitality also started Ct on dust2 and inferno map. They won the match by predicting MongolZ's plays and pushing MongolZ back with frontal pressure with side entries. He was one of the players with the most kills on Apex Inferno, he wanted Apex Major for his team so much, he was so motivated that night, he was constantly reminding his teammates that we will win the major. I was expecting MongolZ to do more on other maps, they weren't on either map.

That result on Dust 2 kind of exposed MongolZ as it's a map that could've gone either way, but Vitality was always one step ahead with the set pieces. The MongolZ always depend on their firepower and clutch potential, but unfortunately, they're not getting away with it for a second time when they're facing the best of the best.

Both series were close, but the favorites still came out on top. Even though NaVi lost, that was still an impressive showing from them, as they're close to stealing a playoff spot from Spirit.

Got 1-1 again yesterday, hopefully it's either 1-1 or 2-0 and not 0-2 later.

Yeah, thanks to Heroic. It made my day tied at 1-1. I would avoid the OG games then after that because they're looking in trouble of being out of this group stages. And congratulations to your bet with Nigma Galaxy, they've won against VP. And that's why my bet is with them later.

There goes Nigma Galaxy exiting with a 1-3 record. They lost the first map after snowballing with a 30k networth lead, and that might've demoralized them heading into the next game since they kept the networth lead from start to finish.

I'm going for BetBoom to win @1.40 over NaVi. We got another EEU derby, and I don't see NaVi pulling an upset here when BetBoom have been playing clean in their last two series.

It seems Navi is actually pretty good huh, Good thing that I skipped this. Nigma as usual gets knocked out at group stage, cant really expect much from them though. Old organization like Nigma and OG is basically a fodder for the other teams

Got a small parlay for the remaining games tomorrow with 4.1 total odds



Actually quite confident that all three would win but Tundra might ruin it by letting Wildcard win a map
