Won 2-0.

Good luck to our bets. The 1st map has already started and it's currently on 14 minute-mark of the game. I like this zeus of 9class because of being too brave and his map awareness is top notch. This is the reason why he's part of my fantasy as the support. I'm going to spam zeus in the pubs later.  

What a day for us as both favorites delivered the win. That was too clean from Parivision, and Team Spirit quickly bounced back against Team Liquid after losing the second map.



The next lower bracket match is underway between Parivision and Team Falcons. I'll just sit this final series out and keep my winnings for tomorrow's matches.  

Congratulations to both of us, we've won the bets with parivision and Team Spirit. I think this is the first time that we've seen a team with a sub and yet, they still perform as if they're normal roster and no changes at all. Mirele is a good fit to the playstyle of Team Spirit but Larl is also a good one. While we celebrate these bets of ours, Parivision lost to the next bracket against Team Falcons. Now, the semifinals is going to be Team Liquid and Team Falcons while Team Spirit is waiting in the grand finals.

I've also heard that Team Spirit scrim a lot with Yellow Submarine, and that's probably why they're so cohesive right from the start. Still, Team Spirit is just on another level when everyone is locked in and not just relying on their core players.

The odds barely favor Team Liquid in this lower bracket final, and I guess it's only due to their map win against Team Spirit. I'm still putting my money on Liquid and hope we get a Liquid vs. Spirit final because we already saw the Falcons-Spirit matchup last time back in the EWC, and it wasn't even close.

I think that Yellow Submarine is actually a team 2 of Team Spirit. We might have a different bet on this match because I went for Team Falcons because I was kind of impressed of what they're doing on this Fissure 6. So, I'll be taking the @2.15 odds that they have against the Team Liquid. But one thing again, one of us is going to win.

MongolZ has always been a tough opponent for Aurora, and that didn't change in this tournament. The Mirage map was close, and it was a shame Aurora lost Mirage. MongolZ was a team that made it to the finals and then lost, but they won today. Aurora is now reaching the semifinals and finals of major tournaments, and the key is to make it happen. Aurora also won a nice $230,000 prize money. Techno was chosen as the tournament's MVP, and the MongolZ team's performance was impressive throughout the tournament. The next time is for Aurora.

I've won this bet, Team Falcons won.




I fell asleep while waiting for the grand finals and it was with Team Spirit and Team Falcons because I woke up during the map 3. And it's already 2-0 in favor of Team Falcons. I still tried to bet for Team Spirit because I thought that they would do a come back and they're @4.40 while Falcons was at @1.17. And I thought that they will still do it but it seems that they're not the Team Spirit that we've seen during the group stage and for this playoffs. So after putting a bet on it, I didn't finish the match because it's an obvious game for Team Falcons.

Congrats on the Team Falcons win, and I also didn't expect Team Spirit to struggle in the final after beating nearly everyone they met. The drafts were so off for Team Spirit during that grand final, and Team Falcons quickly closed it out after winning the first two maps.

Big win for the MongolZ, and one of the crazy parts was seeing a huge watch party all the way from their country. During the first map, Aurora missed their opportunity in the regulation, and the MongolZ eventually found their footing in OT.

They're lucky that the top teams on the other bracket were already out, thanks to Aurora and Heroic doing half of the work.

I am not sure if they're too tired and want to prepare too early for the TI and that's why they just let it lose. But they're not like this, right? however, what's done is done and they've lost consecutively against Team Falcons. Looking at the standing of Team Falcons, from EWC to this Fissure 6 and let's see if they'll do well in the TI2025. Next week, we'll see the start of the most awaited tournament of the year. It feels like one year when we're still talking about how it ended up. And now, we're about to get on it again and it will be two weeks of dota 2 action again.

Still waiting for announcement on which team will take the spot that GG left

Either way, Im not really surprised that Falcons beat Team Spirit. Its almost TI so we can expect alot of teams to actually perform better. In fact it would be a boring TI if no other team could beat Team Spirit but now this kinda open up alot of possibility to happen

Still pretty surprised when I watched it, Team Spirit should have won atleast one map though but Falcons on the other hand was pretty good

I also thought the first map looked winnable after Team Spirit pulled the networth lead back in the mid to late game, but they played too passively and didn't get much out of their aegis while Team Falcons forced the objectives when they had the aegis on Troll.

The mid difference was noticeable between the players, and Collapse couldn't do much when he was forced to play unusual heroes like Doom and Batrider on the first two maps. If Larl can't recover before TI, then this year's aegis could be up for grabs.

Heroic had already paved the way for Aurora otherwise, it would have been difficult for them to reach the finals. The MongolZ watch party area looked great. We have a lot of fans in our country, but as you know, the team was transferred due to sponsorship restrictions. I was a little jealous when I saw the watch party in Mongolia. The area was so large and empty. It was the perfect place to hold a watch party. They won their first major tournament. I'm sure they had a great time there.

They have 1 week from now on before the TI starts, so maybe 3-5 days prior to TI, they'll announce it. You're right that this makes sense that Team Falcons looks on a better form. Or, maybe Team Spirit just gave away the grand finals and trying to make other teams confident that they're beatable in TI.

Possibly. I haven't seen any update yet if Larl is fine and doing good but I hope that he is. I'm counting on Team Spirit because my fantasy carry is Yatoro.

Only 1 week until The International 2025 begins! The prize pool is not big but I do hope we will get a full TI experience with great games , awesome plays and no shady games.

So , who's your favorite to win ? I will personally cheer for PariVision and Satanic.

Yeah, not that big compared to the past TIs that we have. $2.1M prize pool for this TI isn't that big but, compared to the other esports, this is way better than those. EWC made a bigger prize pool but the experience and tradition TI brings is still different and many players still like to go there. While I like Parivision and cheered for them for the past tournaments. Collapse and Noone said that the kid is too emotional and needs to mature more with that. We've seen teams who were good and champs with majors but didn't ended up with the aegis on TI.

While waiting for the international 2025 to come. I did a 2 leg bet for the CIS Battle 2 and that's with Yellow Submarine and then Kalmychata. Let's see if mirele have brought his experience in the Fissure 6 on this tournament playing with the Team Spirit roster and how he's improved on this so far.



What are your interest guys while waiting for TI2025?

[passwordnow]

My bet for Yellow Submarine has won but for Kalm, it lost. This is a 2 leg bet, a parlay so I've lost this bet entirety. And there is still some games left for this CIS Battle 2. So while waiting for the TI2025 to start, I'm doing some bets still to this tournament. With the matches later, I only bet for one game and that's still with Kalmy against the Yellow Submarine. I think that Kalmy has a bit of chance to win against them.

My heart wants Team Liquid to win again, but my brain says Team Spirit if Larl manages to recover from his surgery.

What are your interest guys while waiting for TI2025?

In my case, it's probably obvious, as i've been juggling between some CS2 and League. There are days when both of them have good matches, and it comes down to which game looks more predictable.

With that said, i'm siding with NaVi for today's Blast Open qualifier as they're up against FaZe, who had a sloppy win against ECSTATIC.

We've got some few days left before the TI2025 so, I might juggle as well with some CS2 games maybe tomorrow. I'm waiting for the game of my bet to end this day and it's currently live.

Good luck, I usually bet for FaZe but before the game starts, I might also throw a bet if ever.

Karrigan finished the match with a very poor rating. Sure, he's the team captain, we didn't expect him to get many kills, but with Karrigan so ineffective in this match, Navi should have won a map. Broky took responsibility for the kills on Faze. Just think, they benched Broky at one point. Thankfully, it didn't last long, and he returned to the main roster. While Makazze was a good signing for Navi, Navi is still far from his old days.

I hope you got that FaZe bet locked in yesterday because they won this series. NaVi played badly on their CT sides, and FaZe was running all over the place.

Broky hard carried yesterday's series, and I feel bad for NaVi's rookie player when he's the one doing the heavy lifting on their side, while the other core players felt somewhat invisible.

I'm backing another favorite for today, but this time I expect things to be much cleaner, as it's a tier one team against a team outside of the top ten.

Congratulations on your prediction this time. Mouz is a team in form. They dropped in tier after Niko and Monesy left G2, but I still think they're not a bad team. Perhaps they can become even better over time. Mouz won the Ancient map 11-1, then G2 tried to mount a comeback, but the lead was too great, and after a while, Mouz won the two rounds needed to win the map and finished it. The match of the day was Spirit vs. FURIA. FURIA's sprites took seven Donks without losing a map, despite a 1.76 overall rating.
