Looks like DOTA2 has a tournament going on with The Internationals 10.
Woke up too late for the first of the rounds matches as they are in progress.
Also League of Legends has their World championships kicking off in about 45 minutes.
They can all be bet on here at sportsbet.io Esports hub:
https://sportsbet.io/sports/betsy

All of these major tournaments for esports, with the exception of cs:go, all begin too early in the morning for me to place any wagers on.
Once again, good luck to you ralle14 on those matches today.

Finally it's TI-time and i will definitely tune in into twitch whenever i have some spare time to watch some games because i am playing Dota 2 myself from time to time (on a extremely low lvl  Tongue) and it's pretty interesting to see what kind of tactics and hero combinations the professional teams are using.
Also i did not know that League of legends has their biggest tournament at the exact same time as Dota 2. I don't know if this was planned from the start or if it just happened as a result of the delay of TI because of Covid but to have the two biggest games of that genre playing simultaneously is definitely interesting.
I am suprised that LoL has more views at the moment on twitch, i mean come on LoL is for little kiddies that can't deny.  Tongue

Yeah and just to give you some news about the defending champion, OG. They have beaten Alliance on their first series ended it with a 2-0. The next team to have a 2-0 start is EG that has beat Team Aster for the first day.

Tbh I don't like the group stage format in TI but I like EG here since Aster have been failing to deliver when it comes to the international level just like the last major. Most of the odds are close to 50-50 so it's probably better to live bet each map.
Team Aster has no WhiteAlbum on their roster for the first day and I think that's a big factor why they've fallen for their first series of the group stage. But we'll see tomorrow if gameplay changes as I've read he'll play starting tomorrow.

Theres a poll created by the dota 2 itself like not an official AFAIK like who will win this The international 10 well still at the top is the OG but on their game one against Alliance quite hard but Ceb LC is so OP and a new meta mid of Topson with the tidehunter. Well i guess for the hard match its all about the EG, OG, Secret, LGD and of course T1 support the one of the top SEA teams hoping that SEA will got the aegis of immortal good to make a bet for now ready for the upcoming days.

If there's any games that I would bet on today, this would all be for League and some Tier 1 Dota 2 teams. On the International. most teams are still saving strats for the latter part of the game which can be a pain for bettors since the teams that they will be betting on might intentionally lose some games in order to keep their potential enemies guessing of what they have in the bag.

Either way, TI and Worlds are the two most important esports tournament right now that no one should miss, especially those gamers that also happen to be bettors.

Rtzy performance is not that good though. Team Aster is just not well prepared after having a Covid-19 last week for there 3 players. This impact too much on there gameplay and performance. I think they are not yet fully recovered or they are not yet synchronised after the long rest due to the virus. I hope they can bounce back again. EG plays is very basic compared to other top teams like, OG, VP and IG that showing a complete dominant play and good team work through out the game.

Rolling with another set of parlay since there's a lot of good matches and wanted to watch a bit of TI as well. LNG and C9 are one win away from sealing the qualification spot so this is a must for both of them.

BNB had Ptr back then and he has left the team to make way for a longer setup of players to train and improve.    They are doing well but theres no doubt it was a risky bet, they won on only 33% odds so definitely a good underdog outcome there.   It was a close outcome, they made some mistakes but so did both teams.
Apparently Bad news bears can be in the major without too great a struggle, so they arent a team to dismiss.

I think EG and Godsent are close enough that it should go past 26 rounds.   EXTREMUM is a mix match of players, JK ex Faze there and other not bad players.  I presume Salt can win that one but has to be called a coin flip, best bet is again over 26 rounds probably occurs.

Another bo1 coin flip match coming up, really not my favorite but I think Bad News Bears can do better then expected.   Either by over 25 rounds bet or even a win possibly, since the odds are well over 3x nobody seems to agree with that but I also know how polarized the view on teams can become when its actually not that decisive.    BNB went 16-9 vs Liquid I dont see why they couldnt put up more of a fight here, but with bo1 it can also be a white wash on a bad map or simply the team isnt warmed up.
  I cant be too confident on just a single map tbh, but also I'll go with Bnb to win on that volatility possibility too.   I'd rather bet this match then EG who supposedly are favourites but also have lost their 'fighting spirit' for some reason, it happens teams stagnate not sure.
I remember betting on the bad news bears for one match later last year and they lost. So haven't put any wager on them since.
But you never really know when it comes to these dark horse teams, so I hope you won it.

@ralle14 good strategy on your picks because as I have recently become familiar with, one selection out of a 3-4 parlay seems to always doom my betslip. But best of luck on that one to you. Smiley

I went with most of the favorites today since these three are performing well as expected and I think Cloud9 should be more favored than 1.50 or maybe it's just the bookie giving respects to Beyond Gaming's potential to pull an upset.



Edit : Phew, Beyond Gaming looked good in securing objectives but Cloud9 is always coming out on top every team fight. Grin

Both boombl4 & s1mple are experts in their craft and it will take some new blood to dethrone these players if it can be done.
There have been some players who have shown some promise in the junior leagues.
So with that WePlay! Academy tournament play has started up again recently.
Here are some matches if you want to place a selection on these young guns:

s1mple is the biggest name in my opinion in terms of CS:GO players, his focus, predictions and resolve in the game is top of the line awesome, you don't simply shoot an AWP with no scope just because you're a professional, there's more than it takes to be able to do any of those stuff.

Worlds play ins starts in less than an hour, I took LNG Esports to win @1.74 vs Hanwha Life Esports, both teams improved at the end of the summer season but i'm more impressed with LNG's performance since they're able to take down a couple of good teams.

I'm also eyeing UOL later, I like to see how well they'd perform against some teams since I don't think they should be underdogs heading into this tournament.

Edit : Sweaty mid game but LNG pulls out the W in the end.  Cheesy

Navi winning the Blast series was not surprising.
It seems they have worked out their in-team issues and are a cohesive group with those adjustments.

Next is the Intel Extreme masters which just got started with the big name teams taking on some of the smaller teams in 1 map play today.
Odds are nearly an even 1.01x.

There was a major update to cs go about a week ago which made changes to dust2.
You can read on the changes here:
https://www.sportskeeda.com/esports/news-cs-go-operation-riptide-update-patch-notes-dust-2-map-changes-new-skins-missions-gameplay-additions
There hasn't been one since 2016 made on any of the maps that I can recall.

Boombl4 was really confident in that Blast series, as their IGL, his impact in the game is really huge, and let's not forget about S1mple just really being the goat in that major, he deserved that, the whole NaVi to be honest.

Valve really needs to make updates and fixes, with Riot's Valorant slowly taking over EU, I really think they need to step it up, or else more and more pros are going to switch, I really love CS:GO but they really need to start doing more, fixing more maps, or doing promotions by releasing a new operation, their last operation was the broken fang and they made a lot that time, I guess they need to be more active just like how Riot is doing, I know that CSGO has been out for almost 10 years and have made heaps of changes, but if they continue to be this passive, they'll lose more players, this is just my own opinion though and how CS is going on in my area.

Just as expected Complexity won their match and with a 2:0 paying at odds of 4.20x.
Had this one but another match ruined the betslip. This match was sort of revenge for a former player of Faze clan joining on to there roster and making his debt for this one.

They look to be the favorites in this tournament having added Colderza but suffered a loss to Navi yesterday.

For the Blast Premier matches later on today here are my selections:
There is Navi Vincere up against OG.
I think Navi will take it in 2 maps shutting out a poor performing OG squad.
The odds aren't that juicy for the 2:0/-1.5 handicap for Navi so I went with them taking 1st map @1.47x
Next there is Faze Clan vs Complexity.
Last time I took Faze clan to win they disappointed with a demolishing dropping both maps without any opposition.
So I have Complexity gaming to win @1.98x but I would imagine the odds will get better for this match as the day progresses until the start of the round.

Just noticed while Evil geniuses were playing a match this weekend they had the bitcasino.io logo on their team jersey.
That certainly is huge news for both on inking this major deal with a professional counter strike squad. Cool

Looks like the blast premier is heating up.
