Pro tip/ Not pro tip at all. Pick your favourite team, they may not always win, but they always win over your heart. That is what I love and that makes it almost like a sports team aswell.  |

Would it be too late to buy a steam card and invest some money for Katowice.
I am playing with only like a dollar now but would like to try with more but is the 7 day trade thing going to stop me?
katowice starts on the 15th, so you still have time It says it ends on the 15th  Oh well for later bets i guess! |

Katowice games starting to get added on lounge, will likely be betting on both lounge and nitrogensports for katowice.

Going to start betting on katowice games now
a few notes:
a lot of these teams have been saving strats and have been "underperforming" for a while, but I expect all of them to give it everything they have to win any and every match they can. In addition, the NA scene is a lot better than it used to be compared to last year. As many of these NA vs EU teams may be going head to head for the first time, all of these games will be hard to predict. In addition, the group stage games are all best of 1.
Being a LAN, we don't have to worry about network-related issued such as ping or DDOS, and there will be technicians on-site to fix any technical problems that may arise. This will make bets a little easier, BUT, for some of these teams, being on the big stage in front of thousands of people will be a first for some of these teams, and this may be either motivating or intimidating to these teams.
Even with all this, we can still expect the favorites to make it out of their respective group stage brackets (Fnatic, nV, NiP, VP). However, upsets are likely and will happen, especially for the NA v EU matches.
Either way, we can expect nutty plays and great matches, and hopefully drops.
Going to put more thinking into these games than usual, picks will come slowly, but I will try to post a pick for every game I think is worth betting on.

The matches currently listed on lounge are for Groups A and B.  Without giving analysis, it should be clear that Fnatic should be the clear favorites to make it out of group A. Fnatic > VOX Eminor Natus Vincere > Flip.Sid3 Tactics : : **s1mple will not be playing, he is banned from esl and other Valve-sponsored events if I recall correctly. However I and very sure he will not be playing; davcost will be playing in his place. I do think, however, some people may overvalue the raw, VAC-worthy skill that s1mple brings to the team, skewing the odds a bit. Still think a solid pick on Na'Vi though. I'm going to be a tad salty if I lose that bet, you'll see why. |

General Prediction for Group B:  EnVy Us vs. Titan --> nV have been in a slight slump recently, but I ecpect them to be on the top of their game, practicing all they can for this event. Titan, on the other hand, gets flak for "CarryS" being the entire Titan team. As much as I like Titan and would like to see them move out of the group I predict they will lose to nV, win the loser bracket match, then lose to nV again. LGB vs. Penta --> When comparing individual stats, PENTA as a team are all above LGB's players individually. BUT, LGB does have talented players and solid tactics. However, PENTA has been looking fairly solid with the addition of Troubley. I expect Penta to take this match. |
