Wow! What a match yesterday with Navi and NiP!
If you happened to watch it you would of enjoyed a very good match up with the former champions of this tournament up against the ropes from the very beginning and til the very end.
During double overtime Navi player Bit hit a 3k headshot which I had never witnessed in a tournament like this before. Could this only be achieved with an AWP? I couldn't recall which gun he had but it was a clean shot as all three players on NiP lined up perfectly so he could get that shot done.

As mentioned before this new map will make it's debut during the finals. So it won't be a map choice until the very last day?
Spring and Fall winners will collide for the World championship in 2023!

At this point , every team from NA going to SA is an improvement. NA pubs and Dota 2 scene in general is very poorly there as young players don't tend to play Dota 2 and they are fans of LoL and Valorant/ CSGO. In my opinion , EG made a great move by going into SA they kinda got Thunder Awaken at this point , right ? Pakazs in my opinion , is the best carry in the world right now. Skitter from Tundra is nothing like Pakazs.

EG just did the right thing for their Dota 2 roster. Change is needed because it's been years since they've been with almost the same roster and a few roles that have been changed but still nothing has ever been achieved except participating in the TI but went with a low place.

.

Not really, pro players understand that this is an easy gateway for them as all of them are targeting the TI as usual. If there are no strong teams, there could be free agents/players that will form a strong stack and will then stay at that region whether they have an org or none to start with.

Some disturbing news coming from the DOTA2 arena with a deal being pulled back from TSM made alight earlier yesterday.

That was kind of expected after the disaster and the TSM players might have to wait a bit before they could remove the FTX part from their dota2 pro name since it's the off season.

Quote from: rdbase on November 17, 2022, 06:59:35 PM

There were some who had shirts with the logo during road to rio so I am imagining this will affect their deals with the now defunct exchange as well.

I didn't even notice that FTX was sponsoring a csgo team and throughout the tournament, the imperial jerseys are always the ones that catch my eye. Cheesy

Yeah, the TSM players can wait and they had the longest one of 10 years with the name but they had multiple deals in all the different esports leagues.
The team I couldn't remember was Furia, the hosts of the Intel Extreme Masters tournament in Brazil.
https://esportsinsider.com/2022/11/furia-cancels-ftx-sponsorship-after-crypto-exchange-files-for-bankruptcy

The company also were the official League of Legends championship series exchange partners.
"The deal immediately raised eyebrows from the esports community, as this announcement comes just months after LCS denied TSM from using FTX branding. Sources told Dot Esports that as part of the deal, Riot will have the ability to remove the branding from assets on applicable international broadcasts where cryptocurrencies are ‘strictly regulated.’
On the contrary, editing physical assets, such as logos on a TSM jersey, are not as plausible."

The old EG roster will keep on playing in the NA DPC since that was somewhat confirmed by their captain Fly.

Completely new team incoming for EG regarding Dota 2 after 5 years Cry

. I'm curious what players we will get as EG still remains one of my favorites teams from dota 2 scene but I'm also curious what road RTZ will get because at first sight , Team Secret instantly posted on EG tweet about RTZ and he could be a great fit in in Secret in this moment.

What do you guys think about this move ? Was a good move by EG ? I think a rebuild is always welcome , even in Dota 2 but it's a sad one for RTZ fans.

I also read that EG is planning to take players from South America.

The rumored EG roster for DOTA2:

Pakazs
Chris Luck
Wisper
Matthew
Pandaboo

I do not know if this is a good move. I guess we will see when DPC season starts. But I am sure that fans of EG will surely miss Cr1t and Arteezy. They have been with EG since 2016.

I also think that Furia can win this game without crowd help as they are in great shape and they are playing super aggressive CS:GO with mixed up rotations that a few teams are doing them. Game about to start so lets hope for some great CS:GO and maybe one map with Overtime Cool

Somehow FURIA heard your wish Cheesy

and delivered an unlikely OT during the second map(Ancient) when they were down 15-5 but Heroic still came out on top pushing the series to a third map. I nearly thought Heroic was going to get swept but props to them for being resilient throughout the series. I hope they'll get the win in the grand finals later today since it felt like FURIA was their toughest opponent so far.

Watched that semi-finals match until half then thought they lost but it ended in overtime somehow.
Heroic took map 2 after that comeback from the Brazilians so it wasn't meant to be.
I did think they could do anything and would take the match in the finals but Outsiders were way too good and on point to let that happen.

Quote from: boltz on November 13, 2022, 03:22:05 AM

I'm kinda lost for words. Furia tried everything and the crowd tried everything as well but Heroic on second map took things personally and start delivering high class CS:GO. The third map was even worse for Furia as they barely got 6 rounds where Heroic had Stavn with 24 K / D/ 1 Assist ...that means he made 23 kills by himself without any help ...that's insane so massive congrats to Heroic for reaching the finals. Shocked

They got beaten 2-0 in the finals so it was no contest.
I had Heroic to take atleast a map but Dame & Fame were way too much on a roll to let anybody stop them.

Since they were playing in Brazil you can spot alot of Sportsbet.io shirts being worn by the fans.

From a closer look later on they look to be from Imperial but the shirts were worn throughout the tournament.
Good for Sportsbet to get exposure during a major of this size in a huge market that Brazil is for Esports.

Outsiders/VP are the first finalists after Mouz put up a good fight against them but they had a great run overall. Now it's Furia time to go to finals and meet Outsiders but Heroic will most likely come with a strong game play tactic that will put Furia in some trouble but the crowd will most likely screw Heroic plans hahah and make Furia to win as they did until now.

The final match of the Road to Rio tournament was a thriller with an major upset to Cloud 9 who were heavy favorites to go onto the finals.
They were upended in the final map by Mouz who were down 5-0 on map 3 but then won 8 rounds in a row and didn't look back.
Had all my 5+ multibets with Cloud 9 whom were 1.34x going in prematch.

Legends stage is now finished. We are now in the Champions stage and here are the final 8 teams who qualified for the Champions Stage.

1. Cloud9 vs MOUZ

2. Outsiders vs Fnatic

3. Heroic vs Team Spirit

4. Furia Esports vs Na'vi

Because of this unexpected results coming from Rio Major, there is now a new #1 in world ranking. Faze and Vitality is now down to 3rd and 4th spot. THe new #1 in world ranking is Na'vi followed by Liquid. We will still expect so much changes in the ranking as the tournament progresses. We may see Furia go high in ranking as they are heavily favored by the crowd. The chants of the crowd while Furia is electrifying.

Do you have any favorite in the teams left for Rio Major?

Glimpsed at all the matches yesterday and they were thrilling ones to watch. Placed bets on over 2.5 maps and the later ones did go the distance.
I personally liked Team Liquid but they got beat by Team Spirit so are out of the champions stages as you had mentioned.
Didn't like Mouz going through as they made me lose when I bet on them. But those games were one offs and the ones yesterday only matter to put them through the bracket.
But for me it is Navi to continue on to the finals as they one of the best players of the tournament s1mple.
Boltz mentioned they will be facing off with Furia so the crowd will be on the home country favorites to win this group stage.

Cloud9 vs Mouz is like already watching the finals! Cloud9 ...they are in monster form and they should reach the finals but Mouz are on the exactly same page with Dexter having the lan of it's life so far!

Outsiders vs Fnatic ...I guess it's JAME TIME and VP should win this game.

Heroic vs Team Spirit ...this is where I get lost in my picks. Both teams are playing great with a slight advantage to Heroic and CaDian.

Furia vs NaVi ...what can we want more from this ? It's the best game from Champions Stage.

I think all the teams that I picked to win have all fell off the way side for my bets.
Mind you I had mostly the b01 matches selected from the beginning and only did place a bet on Mouz to win yesterday in their match with Outsiders.

Yup, a lot of good teams are on the rise this time compared to the previous major where you can see a few teams that stood out from the rest.

I've also been losing so much thanks to these upsets and skipped the remaining rounds since I think my chances of winning are much better once the legends stage is over.

Quote from: boltz on November 08, 2022, 04:05:33 AM

Placed 4 bets , all them lost. If I pick favorites , they will insta lose and if I pick underdogs they will lose first map and win the next two...I think this Major is just for ruining bets tickets and make fans malding...

This is so accurate for most of the games, no favorite is safe and I hope it changes in the playoffs.

Nobody was expecting DRX to reach the finale. However as of the play-in stage, they have showed a very strong performance. Because of this I've bet on DRX win at high odds for like their every match. I've managed to make some profit. This time I decided to try my luck against T1 in the finale one last time despite being really difficult.

That is a massive win so a rather late congratulations to you on this victory for your bet in the realm of Esports @CLS63 !

I'm on the same page! This RIO major is the strangest major I've watched as well. Like , let's start with the beginning:

We have a lot of GREAT teams that are not here ( G2 , Astralis per example )
Number 1 team in the world Faze got wrecked 0-3 and went home ...without really putting out a fight and it looked like a trow in my opinion.
Vitality , NIP already home with both of them being favorites to win it before the tournament began.
Crowd...cheating more than other crowds and from last night we have officially a delay during streams because of the crowd.
Furia ...everything in their favor to win this major it seems. Why ? Because first of all , all the important teams stepped away from this MAJOR so yea...Furia has bigger chances and all that + the casters are keep saying that Furia and Brasil needs a new generation that will make them love CS:GO again...

Placed 4 bets , all them lost. If I pick favorites , they will insta lose and if I pick underdogs they will lose first map and win the next two...I think this Major is just for ruining bets tickets and make fans malding...
