Meanwhile , this Riyadh qualifiers looks very suspect right ? trows over trows , teams who line up a team just to compete for this ( bald reborn per example ) and losing dramatically or winning out of nowhere and so on.
What's with this? what region is Bald Reborn playing? I'm trying to look for them but I haven't seen them. But I get it about these qualifiers and some throws here and there can happen just to secure some slots and whichever amount they get after the RM, they'd probably share. We don't know, if ESL will do some investigations about it and finds out that they're being cheated through selling games one after another, they'd for sure going to get banned and they are not going to like that. IMO, it's just so crazy when some twists happens but every team wants to get their share with the $5M prize pool.
I've tried to place 2 bets in South America last night and I will never ever trow money in anonymous teams.
It's best to avoid regions that you have no idea who are playing. Although Kpii's stack is there and they're able to qualify for the close qualifiers, I think if it's with the open's, I wouldn't bet there. But with the closed qualifiers, I am more familiar with the teams that are participating there. And if you don't want that much stress at all, get a closer look at the NA region, not that much participants and only 4 teams so 1 slot for them and it is likely that Shopify Rebellion will get it as they're offlaner was replaced from Saberlight to mind_control. While on EEU and WEU, they're the toughest regions IMO and next is China.
Bald Reborn tried their luck in MENA region in closed qualifiers but lost in first game.
Yea , I will avoid SA from now on because players are changing teams from one week to another and that makes every bettors to be confused.
I see, I've seen that they've tried there and missed them when I was looking for it. SA is just like any other region right now. When they are not successful with their run, they are going to reshuffle their roster and think that they'd be better with that. So, it's probably the best thing to avoid when you don't like that kind of gesture for some certain teams there. But just as said, it's just best to avoid a region that you don't follow. It's best to follow the ones that I have mentioned because competition is really there.
Meanwhile , I'm so mega happy with G2 being in semi-finals and beating Faze 2-0. This team deserves a trophy and Niko deserves to lift it <3.
I haven't followed CS2 lately but looks interesting that G2 is going to faze 9z Team. Good luck to both of them or should I say for the all 4 teams remaining.
As boltz mentioned, they signed up in the MENA quals but fell short against V-Tune's stack (Night Pulse). The region qualifier over there is like a free-for-all with EU and SEA teams trying to snag a spot for the closed qualifiers.
Yeah, MENA seems to be a f-f-a region nowadays. When Team Falcons aren't there and already qualified for good tournaments, they're just going to transfer their IPs or have a boot camp there to get qualified with ESL organized tournaments and they're going to have bigger chance of participating these tournaments. But I think that PSG.Quest will get that slot easy and not having a problem at all, or maybe some hope with Nigma. It's been a while since we've seen them.
