BetBoom vs Furia right now with 1-1 score after 2 maps and once again BetBoom is looking sharp and deadly today and I think Furia will lose this 3rd map for sure. I think BetBoom has the next gen of Cs2 players there with most of them coming from Tier 3 teams but look how great they perform and how great their chemistry between them works.

I also cannot wait to see VP vs Vitality as I have a feeling VP will produce a shock and win today.

ESL One Raleigh slots per region is about to get complete. There are few more slots that are being fight for and soon they will be filled. Here are the teams that have qualified for the other regions. Have a look if your favorite team qualified.

G2 almost lost to BIG ...a game that just ended a few minutes ago and what a game it was! Now , I don't know if G2 is really this bad or if BIG really performed better than usual but I would tend to believe that G2 without Niko will struggle for some time and if the rumors are true with M0nesy having a pre-contract from 2026 with Falcons...then I'm not so sure if G2 will have great performances this year or if they will be able to reach a final and it's sad because they are my favorite CS team.

It was quite the inaugural season for BLAST Bounty wasn't it?
Even the newly minted BetBoom team with the return of one from the good old days of NaVi secured them a spot in the LAN finals.

G2 Esports managed a good comeback against BiG as you have explained above in your previous post.
So congratulations on backing your favorite team and sticking to them at a shaky looking time for them.

Falcons just got merc'ed by Eternal Fire getting a big 2-0 win against a team who were going to be the super team this year.
I think they are even trying to sign S1mple who has been benched by his current team off the roster for whatever reason that might be for.

It was a good start for EF.
They are currently undefeated. If s1mple persists, they need to bench Degster to be an awm player.
If s1mple wants to play another role, he could be a good choice instead of magisk. Falcon spent a lot of money on the current five. It seems Falcon's like Niko and Heroic will look for other ways to make some of their team's core players successful.

BLAST Bounty 2025 Season 1 Finals - Stage 1 Quarter-final teams. It was expected for Navi, Vitality and Team Spirit to be here.
Can say that BetBoom has been successful with its new roster for now, it would be extra good for them to progress from now on for this tournament.

They tried to pull him in with the loan a few months ago, but it wasn't enough to save a dying roster. It's also for the better that he didn't stay with Falcons because the roster needed more changes than just bringing in a star player.

I'm glad it's over, these nonstop qualifiers in the past two to three weeks have been overwhelming. Now we hold and wait for the Fissure Playground tournament on Friday.

Great information for those not keeping up with the rankings of these teams for the next part of the tournament.

So which team is S1mple really on and able to play if called upon? He is on loan to another team but benched by his current one.
His ending part of his career is getting merky to follow and he is at the age of retiring and end up coaching a team instead of playing on their roster at this point.

I agree, they've been a lot for the past weeks and I enjoyed watching the games of it even though I didn't bet for those matches that I should have won. Anyway, where are the Nigma fans at?  
Our boi miracle, sumail and the gang qualified!

By the way, here is the complete teams qualified and will compete for the ESL One Raleigh on April.




As I've posted on the other esports thread, in Dota 2. Navi. JR has been disqualified because of the smoke bug that they've done during the qualifiers.
News with other source: NAVI Junior was stripped of their slot at ESL One Raleigh

Thanks for the update to the ESL One Raleigh teams prior to the tournament begin in DOTA.

As for CS2 watching Team Spirit currently winning their match right now. Next matchup will be G2 against an underestimated BetBoom who beat Mouz in their last match in this Blast Bounty tournament.

I am quite excited to watch this matchup since G2 are the heavy favorites to win in the first Blast Premier tournament  Finals of the season!

You're welcome and as of now, ESL has posted another update that they're going to conduct investigation for the other teams that has also did this abuse. Tundra is one them so, who knows what might happen next.

Yeah, 2-0 already for Team Spirit. As for the next matchup, I only know G2 and good luck to BetBoom on this one, they're popular in dota 2 but I need more time to get familiarized again with CS2.

[rdbase]

Looks like G2 Esports are going to roll over Betboom doing the exact same thing Team Spirit did earlier to Heroic.
It is was BB map pick too so G2 will be playing dust2 which was their pick next.
Have a bet with them taking map 1 and being the winner @1.50x so this is looking like it will hit easy and nicely.

Also in some more interesting news on the major CS2 roster changes:

Thanks for the update to the ESL One Raleigh teams prior to the tournament begin in DOTA.

Are you going to bet on the games tomorrow?

Its BO1 for all the games except for promotions and knock out so most teams will be going all out since the very first game



Sticking with favourites. Yeah I know the odds are kinda bad and its not even worth it but its been a while since I bet on any esport games, I might have been losing my touch. Honestly I got no clue what to bet on BO1 games lol

Maybe not him but I did. We've got bets on two the same matches but I did the other side with Team Liquid and Avulus. I went for Avulus and just went after with the odds and hopefully, this will go well for me. Good luck to us, just few more hours left until the games will start.

[ralle14]

It's great to see that we're all on Gaimin Gladiators. Their odds went up a bit, but I still took it since I don't view Talon that highly against teams from the other regions.

Even with Gaimin Gladiators recent struggle in the qualifiers, I still wouldn't underestimate these guys.

Nah man. I get up too late because usually these teams are overseas so they are playing for me quite early in the morning so can not stay up to watch a match that I have a bet on. Then go to work the next day.

CounterStrike is at a reasonable time which I do bet on and just put one in for the Blast bounty match between Vitality vs Eternal Fire.
Have put a 2:0 win all because of Ropz is on the Team Vitality now so this one should be breeze.

Too many upsets on the first day of the Fissure. We're all for Gaimin Gladiators but we lost, I forgot that when Kuku is there, they're always good in a bo1 series. But if it's a bo3, they can't just win. Well, moving forward to the next games, this is it for me today, 0-2. I'll just watch some games and enjoy them and will bet tomorrow.

Everything is going very well in Eternal Fire semi-finals today Eternal Fire won without any problems on Anubis map and Mirage map.
Mirage was not Eternal Fire's choice, they usually prefer to ban because good results are not obtained.
Today Mirage started with a great defense and was able to continue, I honestly thought it would be a decider. Good thing I didn't bet 2.5 over map, I was very close to that actually.

Yup. Most of the matches were a trap with all those underdog wins in the first round and luckily I made it back from live betting in the second round.

The drafting from the side of Gaimin Gladiators was so off during that first round. On the other hand, Talon did well in synergizing their lineup with the big ultimates (Arena and Egg) against Gaimin Gladiators' melee cores.

About that Blast Bounty tournament, G2 have a game later against Eternal Fire and they are the favorite once again to win this match. I will be betting for them now and wait for the game to start later.
NAVI versus Team Spirit will play 3 hours after that.

Which teams do you think will meet in the Finals? G2 vs Team Spirit?

What I have noticed that whenever Kuku is part of a team, his team is good at best of 1 series. I should have looked at that and blinded of the thought that they're best of 3 series. Anyway, round 3 match is about to start today and this is the crucial part for most of them, those that are in the bottom will not recover and risk of getting out too early on this tournament.

Here are matches later;
