From what I was reading I believe these matches have concluded so did you manage to pull out another win?

Only the first series (Mouz vs. Virtus.pro) ended so far with Mouz winning 2-0 to spoil our over tickets.

Virtus.pro almost had the second map under their control but their Puck made a few costly mistakes by dying quickly and it helped Mouz dismantle the fight in their favor and then transition to the objectives for the win.

I hope the next series doesn't disappoint since LGD looked okay against IG yesterday.

I had Virtus Pro to win that series but unfortunately FNG seems a liability in that team and I think some big changes will occur within VP in the next weeks for sure because they cannot continue on this trend.

Now we have Nouns vs LGD with currently LGD leading by 1-0 with 2nd map being on the way but I do have a feeling Nouns will comeback and win the series. Cool

It looks like that we're going to have a tie breaker. Both chinese teams, G2 x IG and LGD gaming got 1-1 with their last series. So, based on their scores, they're on the same 3 ties and 2 losses.

Derby match at the end of today's play in round.
Usually there are only 2 maps in previous matches but the bookmaker provides 3 maps, meaning surprises will happen.
G2 is very favored in this match but LGD Gaming will not just give up.

My prediction:

Map 1 G2 win
Map 2 LGD Gaming win
Map 3 G2 win

Well, that concludes the 3 days of the play in for this Riyadh Masters. Two Chinese teams are out, Azure Ray and the last one for this day is G2 x IG. We still have some decider games happening right now. The first one was with Virtus.Pro and MOUZ but then MOUZ won.
The last one is with nouns and LGD Gaming and LGD Gaming took the first map. I am confused though by this decider but then, most teams for the group stage are all set.

Today there is still a virtus.pro match against Mouz and Nouns against LGD Gaming.

Yep, today's the decider matches with both winners qualifying for the actual group stage and i'm glad there's no more bo2 at least for today.

I'm also betting on the over 2.5 maps, as both series can shift on any side. They're all good enough to take a map, but not as solid as the other teams who finished at the top of their groups.

rev: Just noticed from their team page

@klidex & @len01
How did your recent bets go?

@boltz
Yeah there are some other matches going on in dota2 during the ESW series in Riyadh aswell.

Heroic almost killed my parlay, but they had a meltdown in the late game, and Aurora with the clutch moves mainly Lorenof with his Pango.

I think Lorenof uses Pango to be a good initiator, always using his combo skills correctly which can help make the team stronger.

I thought your bookmaker set the wrong format for the match, then I found out they're playing a bo3 tiebreaker, instead of a bo1 for the 5th place. Tongue

Based on the teams they've taken a map, G2.IG has a slight edge on this matchup, and I can't blame you for taking the over 2.5 maps in this series since they're both equally bad.

It doesn't matter, the most important thing is that my bet won. Tongue

G2 vs LGD Gaming match on map 3 was really very interesting, almost G2 could beat LGD again, but I admit that Shiro and Echo are reliable players who are able to take advantage of every moment properly.

Today there is still a virtus.pro match against Mouz and Nouns against LGD Gaming.

My Prediction:
2 matches will end with total map over 2.5

Virtus.pro Win
LGD Gaming Win

I can't believe what games I've just witnessed with Aurora vs Heroic!! A mega impressive comeback from Aurora being down 30k networth at some point! Not only they managed to make a comeback but they win with backdoor protection being ON which makes this comeback even more crazy. No wonder why there is a tale with " Never go late game with SEA teams because that is where they prosper and play their best dota " and it's true.

On group B, there won't be any team that will be eliminated, win or lose. And that is because Azure Ray got 0-6 with all of their games that guarantees their elimination but they still have 1 game left against nouns. Moving forward to the group stages, that's where I'd probably start betting but it's kind of hard when the series' are still gonna be a best of 2.

Despite that Blacklist was already qualified for group stages, their first match against Entity doesn't seem to be interesting at all.

Those who have bet on them have totally lost their money even if they're going to tie the series for the map 2. Both of these teams are already advancing to group stages so, it seems that they're just having fun.

And this match of theirs is just giving them the vibes to have fun.

Hopefully everything will be solved for official groups where the real Dota 2 should happening because if they don't , the experience will be a bad one no matter how much money Esports World Cup can provide right ? Huh

I'm starting to think the issue will stay until the end of the group stage because it's been two days in and maybe their production team isn't the same compared to what they've had in the previous ESL/Dreamleague tournaments.

We're on the last day of the groups, and it's best to avoid the teams only playing for the seeding.

The teams that I find worth taking for today are beastcoast and Aurora to win at least a map for 1.68, Virtus pro needs to sweep beastcoast to avoid playing in the deciders tomorrow, but I don't see it happening after VP only won one out of the four maps they played. Aurora is slightly favored against Heroic which makes me a bit confident even though Heroic is the hottest team in their group going 7/8.

Nouns to sweep at 2.4 are tempting as well, i've read a comment saying that the Chinese teams aren't keeping up with the meta and it's why the three of them are struggling this badly.

This is the result I got. I could have used a parlay to get odds around @3+ but I'm more comfortable with a single bet.

Congratulations with your wins. It seems that I'd avoid the match winner and result and will go with the other factors for each games like max kills or how long the game will be.

Day 2 with a lot of issues once again all across the streams and they still didn't fix the flickering issues , nor the server issues , nor the lag issues ...basically they didn't fix anything. Like this tournament has the biggest budget of the year for Dota 2 and they are still unable to provide a clean experience for teams to actually play their game without having to mentally reset from time to time just because the production are making mistakes after mistakes... .

I think it goes with the server of Valve. I'm not sure if ESW have coordinated this with Valve or not but they should help them with the server specifically on their region, MENA with this kind of tournament. But I hope that it will be smooth for the upcoming days to come especially the main event.

I've watched the match of PSG.Quest and Aurora. Well played for the Quest, they've completely outsmarted and outplayed Aurora for 2 games. I've missed that bet but I'd probably avoid that.

Those are some good wins and I agree single bets are always the best move.

Today I was late in placing a bet so I only got very small odds on the first map. Cry

But I consider this as a warm up because after that I returned my satisfaction on map 2.

In the second map it is very easy to predict because from the first map the final results of these teams are clearly visible.
I felt a little strange seeing LGD playing style and this team could have held a draw but the bad strategy of using Spirit Breaker on the second map and letting Natsumi use Ursa was a big mistake. (Easy for LGD) Cheesy

This is a temporary prediction for the next match.Wish me good luck

G2 benched hooxi yesterday -

new member is yet to be announced and there arent even any rumors yet but this new g2 lineup might go on a run after removing their worst 2 players on paper Shocked

Earlier today, they announced Snax and I saw a few comments saying it's a downgrade. As for me, I think it's worth a shot and could be a potential upgrade after their success with Stewie during the IEM Dallas.

Tough luck, I actually called the draws. Out of 6 first games, 5 were draws so yeah it was decent but I ended up only getting 2 of them Roll Eyes

because I thought it wouldnt be possible for most game to get the draws

Group A is wild, only one series ended up with a 2-0 while the rest are draws.

Many people thought that there would be no draw in this play-in match. Initially I also wanted to speculate by betting on 1x2 but I thought again about taking a smaller risk with smaller odds.

But congratulations, at least you can get 2 wins with higher odds.

Wow, that's so close but yeah, this is gambling and 2 games per series is hard to beat to be honest compared to the best of 3 series that we don't have three options but only win or lose if we're up for that kind of bet. This is a long day for the first day of play-in, the games are still on going but they're about to end soon as most of them are into their 2nd games for the group A. As for the group B, 3 matches are still waiting.

Quote from: arallmuus on July 04, 2024, 12:37:22 PM

Yeah the games are pretty unpredictable when it comes to bo2 but after the play-in, well still have the group stage which is also bo2 so thats gonna be a long wait until we get to the playoff stage. I'd guess sticking with some selections that have the potential for straight 2-0 or draws would be the main strats

Wah, these best of 2 I didn't expect to be this long and we'll have to go through with them even on the group stages. But that's fine, it's up to us whether we'd skip most of these games but this is what we like here. We get to watch good dota games and at the same time, win or lose it doesn't matter at all as long as we've enjoyed the game.

I've got two bets for tomorrow matches. No draws on my bet so good luck to me. Cheesy

This is what's risky with best of 2 series'. I've lost both of these bets but if I just bet for draws, obviously I've won them both but that's fine. This is life, this is gambling. Looking forward to my bets for tomorrow. I haven't decided yet but I'll still try tomorrow. The odds for me were just too attractive and that's what I followed.

Anyway, these bets are enough for this day although there are still a lot of games left for this day.
