Nobody really liked how this year's TI was handled right from the livefeed of the matches (think @boltz was the one who brought up their server issues handling this throughout the tournament or last) all the way to the prize pool amounts being lowered drastically from the very start of this tournament!
There were several video's recently I had seen asking the question: Is eSports (specifically DOTA2 professional competitions) dead? on youtube.
I believe it is to blame the way Valve are handling this game's progress or lack there of on the Esports scene.

To change the subject since The Internationals are done for another year, and it begs to differ if they will even have one next season or not (do a search and watch those videos, there are too many to mention up on here), Wink

Anybody else following the ESL Pro League Season 20 games played during the weekend?

We will have some matches beginning tomorrow to continue on with this tournament in CounterStrike during the rest of the week.
Including Imperial Esports for Sportsbet.io! Grin

Well, TI13 has passed, in fact, the talents of the heroes that were introduced recently changed the game, but I just don’t know half of all the talents, because there are too many of them and you need to play for each hero to understand them completely. So, I still find it interesting to play with friends for fun, but not in pursuit of rating. So, in my opinion, the final is below average, although there were a couple of interesting moments. The final of TI13 cannot be compared with the previous exciting finals that blow your mind, for example, with the one where LGD was in the final, against OG or TS. These finals and comebacks are the best thing I have ever seen. Nevertheless, I am glad that TI has been going on for so many years, after all, for me it is a Dota holiday.

Regarding bets, there was a great moment when GG played against Liquid (before grand final) in the upper bracket and there was an excellent odds for Liquid to win, bookmakers considered them underdogs, which now looks funny)

GG, VP, see you at the next TI, guys!

Yes, it was a weak final, and the whole tournament. We were only shown some stupid intro with a new bird hero. Gabe no longer knows the players by nicknames (even though he once did), and he is not going to show himself in person. All the games were one-sided and there were no comebacks at all. Is the meta broken? Definitely yes. And I agree with you that Talents overload the game.
Looking forward to next better TI...
GG, WP.

Oh I wouldn't have known that Gaimin Gladiators are playing right now.
So many thanks for this post as an update who will face Liquid in the grand finals in TI today.

And Team Liquid won with a clean sweep against Gaimin Gladiators. With all of the history that these two teams have got about GG always dominate them at the grand finals, now is a different scenario and story to tell.

Quote from: GreatArkansas on September 15, 2024, 06:02:26 AM

Is anyone here watching right now the Gaimin' Gladiators versus Tundra?
It's already game 3 in the lower bracket before the grand finals. 1-1 standing, the loser gets eliminated, and the winner will face Team Liquid in the championship.

I'm going with GG this time, Alchemist late game + Queen Of Pain.

I've watched the game 3. It's actually a good one, I thought that Tundra will there but there's a lot of twists that happened. That seleri's enchantress was dope to be honest and Tundra wasn't noticing the javelin throws that were thrown to them hurts them most every clash that happened.

Been watching alot of CS2 as of late with Imperial Esports getting a massive win over MOUZ on Sept.11th.
They were 5.30x odds to win and they blanked them in the ESL Pro League.
That was amazing to witness especially against a formidable team of MOUZ who had been just killing their opponents lately.
Remember Imperial Esports is a Sportsbet.io sponsored team in CounterStrike.
So of course this is a great accomplishment in this tournament certainly.

Anyway I tried the h2h button yesterday and I specifically searched for Tundra and Falcons h2h, It was 2-6 in favour of Falcons so I thought that Tundra beating Falcons on upper bracket was just a fluke but Tundra did it again on lower bracket.

So GG, Tundra and Team Liquid left on TI. If I have to pick a favourites then it would be Tundra and Team Liquid for the final. I'd love to watch Topson had another shot for his 3rd trophy.

I had the same thoughts with Team Falcons thinking they'd advance, but Team Falcons might've spent too many bans on the supports when Tundra managed to get their preferred core heroes (Sniper, Lone Druid, and Mars).

After Gaimin Gladiators went with some forced drafts against Team Liquid, I could also see it being a Tundra vs. Team Liquid matchup in the grand finals. This should still be Gaimin Gladiator's series to lose since they stomped them the other day in the upper bracket.

This, I want to see him threepeat but I don't know why my bet stuck on GG and I think that if GG will have to ban one hero, it should be Pure's lone druid. But still, win or lose later, bets of mine doesn't bother me anymore. I just want to see good dota 2 games for this TI2024!! Cool

Anyway today is kinda boring huh, all games ended up with straight 2-0. I was kinda expecting the game to stretch to the 3rd game considering that only a handful of teams are left

The matchups today were predictable and sweat-free with every favorite winning. The next set of series should spice things up mainly the lower bracket, we could see Team Falcons vs Xtreme Gaming as the final series of the day.

Well it seems we got all matchups ended with 2-0 again lol.

Tundra is too much for Xtreme Gaming. That game 1 and 2 carry pick Lone Druid looks so OP but that last pick Topson Rubick really helps the draft, knowing that Xtreme Gaming most game 2 heroes are magic type that Rubick steal spells will make more damage.

Xtreme Gaming's support isn’t playing well against Tundra, and their support is always caught solo. It's sad for Ame—still no TI win for him. Do you think he might consider retirement? Lol, I saw a post on Facebook saying Topson has stopped Ame three times from taking the Aegis.

yeah and ame hasnt performed well too, Not banning lone druid again map 2 was so brutal

I am fed up of chinese teams picking void in elimination games at TI and losing badly

Who's watching right now?

The first game of XG vs Tundra is the worst pick for the side of XG.
On game 2 right now I'm going with Xtreme Gaming. This is very impossible for 2-0, just in case Xtreme Gaming will lose, they must have even 1 win, so I am hoping for a total of 3 games now.

Me, the 2nd map seems that it's the end of XG's journey on this TI2024. 2 games straight with Pure's lone druid, I think that they're wrong in not respecting that lone druid of Pure when they've lost on it on the first map. Now, on the 2nd map, it was picked again and they're about to lose.
I don't think that there will be a comeback on this match and I am accepting it fairly that my bet lost against Tundra Esports. Well, that 2.80 odds for Tundra bets should have satisfied me but that's okay, picks of Tundra was too good.

In an interview on the first map, XG's coach Maps said that they've learned from Aurora's pick yesterday with that Lycan pick on the first map. That's not a good thought to be honest, that's not creative at all when they've got less than 24 hours to apply it with their game play.

Congratulations on this amazing result)

Thanks and congratulations also to those who have bet for Team Falcons. That map 2 made my heart beat faster, I thought that it's gonna be C9's game as the luna is so fat but then, they've been down one by one and we can see how experienced the Team Falcons are.

Quote from: summonerrk on September 14, 2024, 04:40:58 AM

In general, I would agree with all your bets with the teams listed. BB is a weak team, Liquid are strong and I think C9 had no chance, but I would have put the last of your winning bets on Tundra myself. It seemed to me that these guys were clearly stronger. And I would have been wrong)

Good luck to you in all your future bets!

Actually, my mind is fighting with this upcoming match of Xtreme Gaming and Tundra Esports, I want to bet for Tundra but I think XG is doing pretty well and I like the ame's surpremacy. But let's see if my bet for this match will win which is about to start in a few.

I thought it was some sort of livestreaming link or some sort because the icon was kinda like a sound wave. Well now I look like a dumb bitch after knowing this lol Grin

I also ignored that little logo until I got curious and found out later on that it was for the H2H results. Tongue

I'm sticking with Team Falcons again, Cloud9 looked vulnerable during their series against Team Liquid, and from my view, they got lucky avoiding some of the top teams before the upper semis yesterday.

. And I noticed Abaddon offlane at late game is so useless. I don't know why abbadon build Aghanim's Scepter instead of BKB or Pipe. Not sure but the scepter effect for abbadon 1st skill is not working when you're chrono. I think it was working before. I know this because my favorite hero is Abaddon pos 4.

Abaddon was really useless. And I didn't understand why he needed Manta Style and similar items, as if he was going to kill someone alone through a passive ability. He only needed to collect two items, Blink and Aghanim's Scepter. He would launch his ult and do Blink in Chrono. And then all his allies would be alive, making the enemy Void useless. But they didn't guess. Also, Abaddon did very little damage this match. And that was with his shield, not with attacks.

Good luck to your bet for BB, I've bet for Falcons. I guess if malrine and Ammar will have tantrums and they'll lose their concentrations and easily triggered, they'll ruin themselves.

The odds are bad, but i'm also picking Team Falcons to win. BB Team never won a series against Team Falcons and I think one map is all they can get after Team Falcons cleanly send 1win packing in their last series.

I haven't looked at that but Team Falcons won and so as our bet. Congrats to us ralle!

Quote from: ralle14 on September 12, 2024, 09:58:20 PM

Aurora's handicap would've been worth it if they're still at the level where they can put on the pressure, now they kind of took a few steps back and don't look as threatening. Xtreme Gaming's handicap at 1.50 is crazy low though, it only takes one bad draft to ruin the map.

On stake that's around 1.12 and that's why I have skipped that. Xtreme won the match so those who have bet for the match winner with XG have won as well.

I'm currently watching the game of GG and Tundra, 27 minutes of the game and GG has destroyed the middle lane barracks, range and melee.
