In his rookie year in the majors, Donk was at his best with his all-conquering raw statistics and record-breaking highs, earning him the top spot on the top 20 player list.
Isn't it incredible that he reached the top 1  just by playing riff. 2nd M0nesy and 3rd Zywoo were chosen. While awp players were in the first place for so many years, for the first time a rifle player came and reached the top in his first year.
Not only the rifle player, also the first player to peek in the team, entry fragger.

MC about to beat his former teammates.

After Nigma Galaxy lost against Chimera in the DreamLeague qualifiers i'm starting to think Jigglin could pull it off too.

I thought that Jigglin will do it but nah, Agent MC is doing it. Seriously, Nigma is on another form but after seeing them beat Jigglin consecutively, I hope that they'll be able to do it and get one of the slots that this region has because it has two for all of the participants. Happy to see that Nigma won despite that it's my loss on my bet.

I have no idea how these loans and roster changes happened quickly when the team with the previous roster was performing very well. IMHO, Parivision doesn't need to do any replacement and explore when their roster has been doing well.

It might've been a group decision from the players, but I agree there's nothing worse than booting someone from the team while they're starting to gain some success and it's not like he was holding them back.

It was a mutual decision but I feel bad for Crystallis when it's obvious that he's a big contributor to the success that this team has got.

Anyway, I know that it's pure business and it's the management's decision to agree with the loan and to test something within them. Money talks in the business still as that's what the Team Spirit's manager, Korb3n said.

Their odds were close to a coinflip too, I remember seeing it move closer to 1.75~ before the game started. Their loss against Chimera probably fired them up since they're only a few map wins away from securing another tournament spot.

That is true. If getting a carry like Satanic could make things easier for the squad then good on them for taking the risk. Still, we'll have to see once they're in action since we could have another situation similar to Gaimin Gladiator where they took a better position one on paper and it's not meshing well for them.

I see, that's why they're fire up right now and their next match is against zero tenacity and I think that they'll be able to do it but I bet for the other match.

To be transparent about my jigglin lost..




And here's my bet with the WEU PGL Wallachia, I'd go with Avulus against Chimera Esports. I'm feeling that I did a mistake betting for Avulus, why?!! but let's go!

I think there is a point now why they've taken him as a loan. He's still a kid and for sure that he's teachable, I don't know how his attitude goes but that's one possibility why they've taken him.

Speaking of taking in action, I haven't seen any tournament that they can participate now. The qualifiers are there but they are not on the list. I only see them go with ESL One Raleigh but that will be on April and there can be a lot of things happen as that date approaches.

Finally, I've got some Ws again.




SEA region's lower bracket semi-finals for the qualifier of PGL Wallachia, Boom and Execration. I didn't bet for the match winner but went for the total maps.

[l99l]

Watched a nice series between Ence and Falcons in blast bounty matches today. Falcons won the series 2-0. Train and dust2 maps were played, the series lasted a bit long, Train and Dust2 maps went to overtime.
Falcons were able to finish in overtime. Niko looked good in the team, and so did Teses. Falcon seems like he can get good results in tournaments with this squad already.
Team Falcon has become a team with high firepower. Train's return was also very good, it's very enjoyable to have Train in the map pool and to know that teams are eager to play.

[passwordnow]

I was wrong and this bet lost. I thought that it will be 3 maps overall but it didn't.




Still going with an Execration match and I'll try if they'll win this.

[passwordnow]

I've lost this bet, I guess that's enough for today and there a lot of on going games.



I'll just enjoy watching some games as of now. Going on with the Raleigh qualifiers, I'm into Heroic and Sleepers on the SA region. 1-0, in favor of Heroic and it seems that they're going to take it to 2-0.

I also got burned by those tier-two matches from the regional qualifiers and sometimes the best option is to watch these games or stick with the top-tier teams that are consistent in sweeping weaker teams.

That said, i'll be taking Talon @1.50 to win the upper bracket final against Boom, we've seen this matchup several times already and Talon is just clearly better.

We have bet for the same team and with this, good luck to both of us and I hope that we win this bet for Talon Esports.

I feel bad for Boom as they're always getting screwed over by Talon, but i'm glad that the odds aren't as horrible and Talon is still delivering like usual.

For now, i'm just waiting for the grand finals of the SEA qualifiers. Boom Esports is down 0-1 against Kukuys in the lower final, still I do hope they pull the reverse sweep because the odds will be terrible against Talon.

Feels good when I'm down with my other bets in other sports.

Team Kukuys won against them and the grand finals was with Kukuys and Talon and then, Talon screwed Kukuys. LOL.
These boys...

Anyway, with the WEU instead of betting for Secret's lose against Tundra since the odd with that is terribly low. I am betting on an under 2.5 map.

I agree, it's nice when esports is there to back you up.

It was an impressive run from Kukuys, but Talon is still acting as the gatekeeper and would beat any of them regardless.

The Tundra series somehow went over and they kick up a notch to sweep Gaimin Gladiators instead.

While waiting for the other qualifiers to progress, i'll try my luck on the MESWA qualifiers since we're getting a rematch between Chimera and Nigma Galaxy. I'm still treading lightly here as these two teams already beat one another in their previous meetings.

True, and that's why I am happy to see some greens with my esports bet.

Talon sure is a gatekeeper and congrats to them. As for Tundra, my bet lost in there for being under 2.5 because it went over.

Good luck with that, Nigma sure has got some knock out against Chimera if they will not be careful.

Just took a bet again in the North America before it starts in an hour.. Just win one map, Wildcard!

It appears that a map win was too much of a task as Shopify ended each map within 30 minutes.

My ticket on Chimera Esports miraculously survived after they completed a reverse sweep against Nigma Galaxy. That third map should've been a win for Nigma Galaxy after the drafts went in their favor(Bristleback, Lycan, Monkey King), but unfortunately, the Chimera guys are just better at executing their plays.

We got another rematch between Night Pulse and Avulus in the WEU qualifiers. These two already faced at the start of the qualifier with Night Pulse taking it and I expect it'll be another close series with Night Pulse winning at least one map.

Yeah, it was too much for Wild card and I thought that they'll make even one map but that 2nd map was painful to watch, I thought that they'll make it but didn't. Still, nice try for both of us and this is just a normal day and we have to move on. Good luck on that bet with that match, I'll pick some later.

There are some news about ESL One Raleigh that there is one qualified team that has been disqualified due to smoke bug/abuse. So Navi.Jr is disqualified and therefore, AVULUS takes their slot.
