HUGE HUGE upset as c9 lose to rebels(who???)

Also a 13-0 as spirit dont even give one round vs apeks
What a day 1 for iem loll

I also caught a glimpse of that upset from Rebels Gaming they were like 6.00-7.00 decimal odds pre-live. C9 are lucky they get to face BB who's even worse as they only got 1 round against Eternal Fire.

The lower bracket is so stacked with FURIA, Astralis, Cloud9, and BIG still fighting for their qualification spot. Shocked

C9 got a good foothold of the first few rounds but Rebels really know how to pick up the pace. I expected Ax1le to perform somewhat better against unknown teams, but lo and behold he's just always getting caught at the wrong place with no trades available. Meanwhile on the other team, olimp was always quick to peek and entry frag for the team, making it look like he knows where everyone is. I honesyly love his confidence and I think that kind of threw C9 off in the latter rounds. Gigachad olimp ftw.

Going with the other regions, they're done except with South America as they're starting out as of typing this and the grand finals is with Heroic and Boom Esports. I just noticed that the beastcoast we used to know have already changed their roster.

Western Europe's representative for this qualifier is Tundra Esports, they've ended the match against OG with a class. Grin

Yup, beastcoast isn't the same anymore and they ran out of options now that the other orgs like Heroic and Boom got the better players.

I think that it's cheaper to operate there than any other regions so these orgs choose to be there and try some of these rosters if they'll work out.

As for SA, their representative is Heroic. What a fresh start for a new org on this game although technically they're not new to esports.

That WEU final was unexpected, I thought it would be another tournament secured for OG, but they got outdrafted in the first two games and lost the fourth game with one bad team fight.

It would be better if the ESL had given two slots for WEU so we get two good teams there. But still congrats to Tundra.

Might just combine NA and SA all together as well as MENA probably with other asia region

I've seen that format used in one of the LoL qualifiers for Worlds, where they merged two regions(Oceania/SEA), and it ended with the slightly better region filling the two slots.

That'll depend on the ESL organizers now that Valve already stepped back from handling most of the tournaments.

Check out the roster of the Klim Sani4 and they're unknown folks but managed to get the slot and beat good teams like Virtus.Pro.

That team and VP could be the next third-best team in EEU ever since 9Pandas lost most of their players.

We'll get to see that since this is just like the start for them.

Mena is going to be with Team Falcons, no doubt with that.

And as for the Chinese region, it's going to be G2.IG.

You know there is a new meta arrived on League of Legends recently. There are some big changes affecting lane fights directly. Until teams adapt to the new meta I have decided to make surprise bets on especially first maps on LPL games. Maybe I can make some good amount of money if my luck helps me.

You know what, I've been thinking alot about this lately. It seems that some regions are not as competitive as the other regions. NA and MENA for example only has like 1-2 top contenders teams that always make it to top while all the other teams are scrapping the bottom. Valve Should have just combined those type of regions though to make the qualifiers game like this even more interesting.

Final day of LEC week 3 is starting right now and below are the matchups-

The BDS match was interesting, they somehow got their second loss against the weakest team in the league, and KC only started to wake up after they were out of the playoffs. Tongue

In Eastern Europe, the two representatives are already proclaimed. We'll see Team Spirit again together with Klim sani4.

Nexus might be a low tier team but they are having fresh talents in that team that could go big whenever they have the chance. They also represents the biggest internet caffe in Romania and also having important sponsor so no wonder why they are having an uptrend in CS2.

This is probably why I haven't heard much of their play, they are in the European end of the Source 2 teams.
Maybe I would if they are a higher ranking professional team who regularly play in the big tournaments.

Take the Blast Premier Spring tournament for instance. Astralis beat BiG and G2 blanked Liquid.

Another grand finals curse for Geek Fam. I was really impressed with their run but it seems that they've fallen short to this ESL One Birmingham journey.

I guess the lower bracket momentum is no joke from the side of Talon and winning it all starting from the lower bracket is indeed impressive. The odds even favored Geek Fam, and I saw their odds hovering around 1.30 before the match started. I was close to including them in my parlay, but i'm lucky that I missed it due to the late markets.

Really no joke.

They're impressive and have been consistent. I thought if there's one consistent team, that's Geek Fam but Talon shown that they're more consistent in terms of everything.

Everything was just smooth for them. And you're lucky that you've missed it.

Yes, isn't it quite funny a pro-tournament playing team such as BiG loses to these lower tiered teams like Nexus.

Then again, that was the RMR qualifiers, so i'm not surprised that we get to see a few new teams go all out and shock well-known teams like BIG.

Funny how BIG went from losing to Nexus ( a fresh CS2 team from Romania ) , then beating Heroic on edge and today beating C9 too. It seems that disband pressure is real and they want to go as deep as they can in the Blast Major but personally , I still think they lack strategy and don't know how to play important moves but also check on time as well while they doing it... Embarrassed

I also didn't expect BIG to eliminate C9 the other day and thought maybe the stomping loss they got from VP broke them.

Poor Blacklist Rivalry, they've lost the first map against Execration. It's funny that Palos came from Execration then moved with Kuku to Team Darleng and now with Blacklist but they keep on losing against these teams.

I'm having this feeling that Geek Fam is going to get this one slot for the SEA.

That only means Blacklist Rivalry has more problems aside from the position 1 department, and they can't underestimate the OQ teams.

I agree Geek Fam should qualify since they have been solid even in the previous qualifier, where they fell short against AR.

Cloud 9 are still contenders and are no slouth in these proleague matches from their roster rebuild.
In the Spring BiG are playing against Astralis and are 7-5 at the moment.
Next match we have crowd favorites G2 going against a Team Liquid which are coming off that loss to Faze yesterday.

Congratulations to Talon Esports.

They are qualified to the ESL One B'ham, coming from the lower bracket going to the grand finals and getting that slot for the SEA region.

Just, wow, straight 3-0 for the team that everyone thought was going to get that one SEA slot.

Riyadh Masters and Animajors would be a great improvement to the content that we're receiving from ESL and Betboom. These guys know how to produce a good tournament. They could improve the tournament format by a bit, but entertainment and quality wise, they are miles ahead. There's just not enough games or tournaments going around at this point that it's hard to look at the dota scene. Most are just minor tournaments with a lot of unmotivated teams joining for the sake of the prize money.

There isnt that much to improve on the tournaments rules I guess as I'd rather have week full of action packed games like this rather than prolonging it but yeah so far ESL sponsored tournaments are decent but how I wish we get another regular sponsors throughout the year. Anyway Animajors was fantastic, its different than the regular major and this one just hit different.

Weplay was the sponsor for Animajor though but I guess they decided to not sponsor again huh
