I agree, we'd see a lot of potential upsets for this entire week. Since this group stage 2 is going to be played until February 27, there's a lot to happen. And with the first match for today, Xtreme Gaming won against Mouz. I guess that the others have expected this to happen. And with the 2nd match today, it's with Parivision and Tundra. I haven't bet yet and might do it maybe on the 3rd or last series.

Surprisingly, the bookies continue to be on point with their odds as no upsets occurred. The closest were XG and Aurora winning, but it's a stretch to call them upsets.

I agree, there's no upset yet but we'll see on the upcoming games. Xtreme Gaming seriously is going good on these first games they have on the group stage 2. And I think if there's an upset, it's with the Parivision. Compared to the past tournaments that they have participated, they're having fun and not this deep in losses. Anyway, the GS2 hasn't ended yet and there's still a chance for them to win the remaining games.

Waiting for the next match between Aurora vs Tundra to begin since the schedule for today's matchups are at a reasonable time for those in America to watch this tournament.
Seeing them going against XG tomorrow these are still the round robin group stages right?

For the Liquid vs Falcons happening right after, I would probably go with the draw since they are both at equal level of gameplay the last time I watched these two face-off against one another.

The picking has started for the map 1. I am liking the first three picks of Aurora Gaming despite that I've bet for Tundra. But let's see how it will end, I'm still putting my money on Tundra.

For the Liquid vs Falcons happening right after, I would probably go with the draw since they are both at equal level of gameplay the last time I watched these two face-off against one another.

Both of these teams are great but these series are not a best of 2 but best of 3, and that means that there will be one winner and there will be no draw results.

Think Aurora won their match against Tundra because their record is now 5-2 according to the table I was following to see who were ready to play today.
Liquid are up 1-0 in their match against Falcons but as you had said it is a bo3 so there is still plenty of game left to play.

PGL Cluj Napoca defeated Vitality's rival Parivision 3-0 in the final to claim another trophy. Vitality just keeps going and continues to win every trophy one by one. I believe Vitality has surpassed Astralis' prime. They are truly performing at their best with this roster in matches where they are such heavy favorites. It was clear they would make a fresh start after the ropz transfer, and it has made the team virtually unstoppable. aPeX is a legendary IGL, and we see this time and time again.

These grand finals for this PGL ended just as many predicted it would.
Team Vitality are truly unstoppable at the moment with them blanking their opponents in this fashion for the finals just show their performance has not swayed since their winning streak began.
They had pasted the Astralis record for number of wins in the majors.
Well done to Vitality for winning another one this time in Romania!

In Vitality, the players really don't panic or get stressed. After Jame's ninja defuse round, they continued playing as if they had lost a normal round, without even thinking about it, but afterwards they analyzed where they went wrong.
Parivision deserves credit too. Led by Jame, they're truly on a legendary run lately, and Jame excels at both AWPer and IGL roles. There are matches where he's the top fragger, and this plays a significant role in the team's victories.

Think Aurora won their match against Tundra because their record is now 5-2 according to the table I was following to see who were ready to play today.

They did, Aurora won against Tundra and I've watched the series. The first map seems easy for Tundra and then the 3rd map, I thought Tundra will get it because it looks like they're about to finish it. But, all I can say that Aurora is now the team to looked upon.

Liquid are up 1-0 in their match against Falcons but as you had said it is a bo3 so there is still plenty of game left to play.

Team Liquid won the series against Team Falcons. And right now, it's Mouz against Team Falcons. While later, it's going to Team Liquid and Aurora as the last series of the day. I haven't decided yet which team to bet on the last series.

[Pumared]

In my prediction, Fúria didn't even make it to the semifinals, losing to The MongolZ, and they lost to Vitality who, surprisingly to no one in the CS world, won the championship easily with a resounding 3-0 victory. And Parivision, who were predicted to be in the final, surprised everyone; they really are good. But Vitality is currently very strong.

I agree, even though Parivision only placed second, they're definitely one of the better or most improved teams in this tournament, together with the MongolZ.

Beating Vitality is out of any team's hands, as it's almost similar to facing an all-star team in the NBA due to how well each individual can carry and clutch, even if the others are falling behind.

Exactly, it's a great moment for Parivision and for Jame. They deserve this moment. Who knows, maybe it's a change of leadership now? At some point Vitality will stumble and they can take advantage of that chance and end up winning. Parivision is consistent, they just need to maintain it and improve to be able to win a major title.

Been waiting for the next tournament or major to begin in CS2 to see how they will do going into the rest of the year.

So the next big tournament is the BLAST Open Rotterdam, which starts on March 18th. And PARIVISION is in the tournament, but as I've been saying, there's a good chance Vitality will continue winning. Looking at the players' statistics, it seems like nothing is going down, only up.

I agree, the only way Vitality loses is if they underperform and maybe it'll happen again, similar to how they dropped out of the semis in the previous Blast tournament.

who are favored during this tournament for you?

It used to be Aurora for me, but now that their streak got broken, it's neck and neck between Liquid and Tundra to win the whole thing.

All eyes on Parivision in Rotterdam then.

For the dreamleague season 28 dota2 series, it looks like Team Liquid are one of the only unbeaten teams for the group 2 stages. They are looking stronger and just might take it all. We'll see if Tundra can make a run and snatch it up from them.
As for Team Falcons, it looks like one of their team members SabeRLight will be replaced with Corrupted.

Everything indicates that their performance won't diminish anytime soon. Zywoo is winning everything as MVP and it's simply impossible to break that undefeated streak. I even believe that if they were to lose something, he could still be MVP; he's playing very well and deserves all the credit.

Pardon if it took long to reply on that. But here's the current update we've got below and with my bets, they're shared on the other thread and all of it that I've done were greens and wins.  



We're now down to 4 teams and let's see if the great team Aurora will survive XG and the next matches if ever they win against them. While for Tundra and Team Liquid, they're both in advantage of going to the grand finals and semi finals for one of them that losses the upper bracket.

[ralle14]

As for Team Falcons, it looks like one of their team members SabeRLight will be replaced with Corrupted.

Yup, their offlaner had to miss the remaining games due to an eye infection, but it was no problem for Falcons when they still had their number on XG.

I'm doubting XG and Aurora to make it in the final when Liquid and Tundra will probably gatekeep whoever wins this first game, then set another upper-bracket rematch in the final.

[rdbase]

So the stage is set for the lower bracket semi-finals which start in the next hour between Aurora gaming vs Xtreme gaming as both have mentioned above.
But I do agree that Team Liquid and Tundra are the toughest teams in these upper brackets.
Where they will have their match against one another in around 4 hours from now.
