Does anyone makes a bet between the match of the OG vs T1? this game is super unexpected to the player who makes a wage between the odds of the 2-0 series bet because the T1 get rekt the one of the TI champions in this event also its not quite good that they bring back ceb but with the position 5 and their offlane comes having hard communication to them imagine Mars position 3 without the Arena also T1.Kuku has a really good draft with the counter to their safe lane and offline so they cant move so much.

T1 are the favorites being the former champions so if they getting rekt early on in their campaign then the odds would be better to take.
From what I recall OG isn't doing that great in the league.

Today's the last day of the group stages and I really like the +1.5 handicap on Beastcoast @1.55 they'll be facing EG on their last series and I think they could grab a map here. EG needs to sweep this series and can't afford to drop one map and if they do they're eliminated. Beastcoast, on the other hand, needs one map to survive and they're the better team so far as they're able to take a map off T1, Boom, and BetBoom.

Imperial beat Bad News Eagles in their PGL majors match taking both maps to keep them in the tournament.

So now they faceoff against a tough Cloud9 squad and if you have been keeping up on this thread, now are aware they had to rebuild from the former team known as Gambit esports.

If not, here is a run down of them now: https://cloud9.gg/latest/cloud9-returns-to-counter-strike
The news when they we taken over a month or so ago:
https://www.hltv.org/news/33680/cloud9-returns-to-csgo-with-acquisition-of-gambit-roster

So this will be their first majors tournament under the name Cloud9.
Here are the lines so to place a bet on either side:
https://sportsbet.io/sports/event/counter-strike/pgl-cs-go/pgl-major/cloud-9-vs-imperial-e-sports-62816bde8596ec71cb0ffd22

Heavy underdog odds for Imperial @4.80x at the time of writing this.

Its doing well somehow in line with BB,Thunder Awaken and TSM and TS in terms of standings. They even sit on higher bracket for the Upper quarterfinals against TSM and if they lose
then they might possibly able to face BOOM esports on the lower bracket.
Im eyeing for Tundra to win this one, they are really very consistent when it comes to their gameplays.

High possibility that Tundra can win this Major as you already point out, They are the most consistent team on this league so far that didn't have any lose on the group stage. They just always choke during bracket finals base on there previous majors tournament run but as betting wise concern. Tundra is a very good pick when it comes to early matches on upper bracket. They are so good on team fight and drafting.

I'm not sure about Tundra because like you've said they usually fall short in the playoffs and who knows it could happen again. I'd give them a slight edge over the other teams for now but I still think any team can take it and they haven't faced the teams from the other group that had closer results and at the same time, there might be a surprise coming from other teams since this is the more important match.

Tundra had already won against Team spirit and they would really be going against with Thunder Awaken on Upper Bracket Semis and whos the winner on that game would really be on the waiting game on
upper bracket final fighting possibly neither the winner T1/GG  and TSM..
Tundra is well expected to have that good execution of plays plus that freaking Nine is too damn good together with that 33.

Imperial manages to survive another round as they're able to take down Cloud9 I honestly didn't expect them to reach this far and out of the remaining teams they're lucky to face Copenhagen Flames. The current odds are close to 50-50 after that upset while Copenhagen Flames continue to struggle and the map pool seems to be in favor of Imperial so there's a bit of value on their side since they're at plus odds (2.06).

Imperial had a good run as no one expected a team having only 3 months to make it possible getting this far in a major against sides with years playing together.
So well done and everybody during the match were saying they can't wait to see them play in their next tournament as it was a treat to see.

The only brazilians left in PGL are Furia which are not easy to play against either.

Tundra will have a flawless run on the upper bracket until they will meet GG in the upper bracket finals. There's a high chance that they fight in both Upper Bracket finals and the Finals of this tournament. Thunder Awaken and Tundra both 2-1 Betboom so I guess Tundra and TA will have a close fight too. I agree that Nine isnvery strong on this tournament but Pakazs is a very explosive pos 1 and always manage the timing of his items properly.

We'll see later today, I feel like GG's series is close to a toss-up since TSM know how to deal with their playstyle which capitalizes on the neutral creeps and the early phase of the game. Tundra hasn't faced Betboom in the playoffs but they did meet during the groups and ended up going 1-1. With the way their first series went, it'll be a close series and could go all the way to three maps again.

Agreed. I’m undecided on what team to choose even though Tundra and GG is the top 1 during group stage. I’m torn on choosing between over 2.5 map or + 1.5 to under dog team base on the odds. Actually I’m surprise on the result of the matches between bracket system. Betboom eliminate Team Liquid and Beastcoast eliminate Team Spirit is very surprising. I don't understand why this 2 strong teams early exit on majors.

Everything is totally unpredictable even myself do really expect Team Spirit and Team Liquid would really be advancing on further brackets but surprisingly they had been beat up with TSM,Thunter,BB, beastcost
which we know that these names arent something that we are seeing in most events or majors and some of them are just new and some of them are old but not really that active with these kind of
tourneys.Generations do really fly by too fast on where strong teams in the past had been beaten up for newer ones.Expect the unexpected as always.

For some updates of stockholm major in Dota 2.

So as expected Tundra is dominating on upper bracket beating up thunder awaken which drops on LB and fighting OG on there tomorrow.
For TSM vs GG then TSM goes ahead for UB finals against Tundra which is something exciting.

Fnatic vs OG? Well, Fnatic did choke on game 3 on where they might have secured the spot but badly tilted on end game.

PGL majors in Antwerp have their semi finals in a few hours with two of the strongest teams in this tournament facing off:
Faze vs Team Spirit & Navi vs Ence

With this recent match up update is the match is between the TSM vs OG which is more unexpected by the people and imagine this match looks like reborn with the OG with ceb of course because of the windranger position 5 can be adjusted as a position for or position 3 because of the roaming and kills get instantly, the match came from the standing of 3-1 also one of the top star in this game is Ammarthef he makes a build rarely seen in the pro scene history and one of the most favourite item nowadays is with the wraith pack imagine having additional aura armor + with the life steal this so OP i guess they make an update before the Ti

Last weekend the PGL finals had Faze as the winners over Navi.
This was a clear win and it means their team has finally melded together to make them 2022 champions for their first major of the year.

The MSI semi-finals are scheduled to start today and the series scheduled today is RNG vs EG. There's a big gap between these two teams as RNG only dropped 2 maps during the rumble stage while EG dropped 5 maps. Even if RNG put out one of the best results throughout the tournament I still expect them to drop a map at the very least plus the odds are just oozing value as it's hovering around 2.20 to 2.40 since yesterday.

I watch this thrilling match and NaVi seems to lose confidence after they lose game 1 even though they are already 1 map away to secure game 1 and has the economic advantage over Faze. Karrigan keeps outplaying them by taking 2 to 3 players of NaVi at the same time. Game 2 is already a one-sided match since they can't catch up anymore to Faze momentum aggressiveness. S1mple is still good but Faze roster is much better overall against the defending champion. I lose my bet by betting on NaVi but I'm happy to see that NaVi was finally taken down by the new team.

^^
Was wondering why everybody was shocked by Karrigan's performance as you can see from Ropz in his post match interview:
Ropz: "Karrigan Is Just the Best" | PGL Antwerp 2022 Major Interview
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6qMaaMXCXI

Pop Flash even dedicated an entire cast to him and being the beast he was in IGL:
Pop Flash: Karrigan = GOAT IGL After NAVI Destruction? | PGL Major Review
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TasW2vlO0fE


Can't wait to see what is up next for Faze in the future.

[Balmain]

FaZe is the new champion. Everyone expected Navi to win this major, but FaZe team progressed very concentrated, few people predicted it to win the championship. On the Inferno map, Navi came from behind and caught the draw and lost in overtime. After losing the first map, I didn't expect the Navi to drop this much on the second map. Rain, the best player of the tournament, did a really good job. I'm wondering about the Faze team in the future too, I think they deserve to be the best team.
