The other teams that I think will make the round are Heroic,Vitality,G2,Fnatic,Faze,Furia and Ence.
G2, FaZe, and Furia are on 0-2 elimination matches today. RIP our Pick'ems Cheesy FaZe and G2 looking really weak, getting sent down to 0-2 by arguably the weakest teams, i.e. BNE and ITB. To be fair it was a BO1, but still disappointing regardless. Hopefully, we can see their better form in the BO3 matches today.

Navi is also not in their prime yesterday, getting schooled by Liquid in CT side inferno 14-1. Something is wrong and S1mple missing easy shots didn't help. The only strong contenders for the title now are Heroic and Vitality. Betting on them to get that 3-0 wins.
I didn't expect them to play so badly.I especially expected G2 team to win the last major but niko couldn't do it. They had to say goodbye early.Now I see the Vitality team ahead in the paris major, which is the last major.Since s1mple's team is also eliminated, I think zywoo can win this tournament.They are good as a team and it is worth mentioning that they are the side that has a slight advantage since it takes place in their country.My pick was a little unlucky and most likely it will not be diamond anymore.I will try to make at least gold and so my picks were as follows;
I picked Heroic, Monte, Liquid and Vitality to be the teams that will win the first matches. Secondly, I expect Heroic and Vitality to win, and finally I picked Vitality in the final.

Also going to put my money in Talon, best team in SEA rn imo but yeah they could win 2-0
Those odds on Talon to sweep the series are good (I might grab it as well). Blacklist is performing better with kpii now in the offlane but their 2-0 win against BOOM wasn't as impressive compared to what Talon had to go through against SMG.

Edit: The odds went up, so I had to go for it.  Cool



Yeah the odds was great and my only regret was parlaying that with Entity +1.5. If only I hadn't do that then I would have racked in decent amount. I've done this numerous time, getting some good pick then somehow think that the odds was not enough therefore parlaying it onto another bet then somehow lose the ticket FFS Roll Eyes

Im starting to think getting OG-1.5 should be a good option to recoup what I've loss today

I also have put my bet on Faze to win and I hope they turn around things in second and third map to win this now. Navi surprisingly are playing better than the matches they have played in Blast but I guess given the situation they have to now.
That comeback from Faze in the decider map was a miracle, I never thought they'll wake up when they're down by 6 rounds to force OT and eliminate Navi.  Grin


Yeah true, to be honest I had given all hopes the way Navi were giving Faze so much hard time but Faze made it in the end. Faze were so helpless in Anubis but they really pulled back in the end. Navi had no clue at all when they started to make it back to the OT. In OT also Faze performed very well with all the plans and they pulled it back in the end.

karrigan said that it felt like a play off match and it actually did. One of the best matches of Blast major Paris till now, I must say.

It seems that some of the roster from Nigma has been standing-in for some teams. But still good luck to them and the game is about to happen within a few hours like 5-6 hours from now.

Well for now the team members are really capable of standing in because they are still top tier players but thats not really the whole point of Team Nigma if in the end they are just those 'mercenary' team. They need to figure out their own game soon otherwise there is no point for them to stick together, they should have let go of their entire roster
Good thing for Nigma, they've got new two players and one of them is known already for standin for Shopify Rebellion and that's Mikey. While Miracle is on the break and being inactive, he's been replaced by Yuma.

I think it was just Miracle and Kuro that didn't got any stand-in invites but for Miracle, IIRC, he's experiencing some health problems so he needs a break.

Thanks for the heads up. Either way, Entity won the game so yeah it was a good bet taking +1.5 on them against Liquid
You're welcome. Many were for sure got slaughtered by their bets for Team Liquid and that's a straight 2-0 for them. Later, we'll see the next game of Team Liquid against Team Secret.

The odds for the +1.5 handicaps on the WEU DPC matches later tomorrow are pretty decent. I've checked another sportsbook, and all three handicaps are at 1.50~ at the minimum, so i'll probably place one or two single bets since I don't trust any of the favorites to sweep atm.


Obviously would skip Team Secret handicap for sure. Im not convinced enough that they will win a single map against Liquid but I would put my money on Entity for sure. They won 2-0 against Liquid and although GH was standing in for them, they just won the game under 30 minutes for both map so yeah at this rate they might have a good shot to make it to the next Major

Also going to put my money in Talon, best team in SEA rn imo but yeah they could win 2-0

Today at the Paris major, the last teams to qualify for the Champions stage will be decided.
In the Faze-NaVi match, Faze was the winner and qualified for the stage.The first map was Overpass, chosen by Faze.Faze failed to win this map.Perfecto won the map with a good game against Ropz's poor performance.
The second map was Mirage, which NaVi chose.But NaVi, who played a terrible game as a team, lost this map and left the match to the last map.The last map was the new map Anubis.Broky was the name that won the match for his team with a legendary performance.
ITB-Fnatic match is going on right now.Fnatic won the first map.ITB is leading 14-1 in the second map.

Team nigma has a lack of every thing imagine MC now becomes part of the OG which is really suitable for him because the OG can really give a good team coordination to make sure their offline MC makes a good items for initiation for the next move is their snow balling.
Nope mate, MC isn't part now of OG. He just played for OG on the Berlin major as their stand-in offlane but he's still with Nigma.

--> https://liquipedia.net/dota2/Dota_Pro_Circuit/2023/3/Western_Europe/Division_I

Check this out. The current stand-in for OG is their position 4 for Taiga -> Aramis. All in all, they've got still the same roster but just that stand-in for their support as seen on that page.

MC is still part of Nigma and they'll play for Division 2 on the month of June.

While waiting for the DPC markets to come up, i've put a unit on Faze ML @1.87 since I watched some of the Blast major matches earlier, and they almost lost to BNE, but they look better than NaVi.


Faze kinda slipped a bit in the first map- Overpass but they really made some good comeback near the end of the first map but last few won by Navi. Really entertaining first map.

I also have put my bet on Faze to win and I hope they turn around things in second and third map to win this now. Navi surprisingly are playing better than the matches they have played in Blast but I guess given the situation they have to now.

Fnatic to beat G2   2-1  was a 7x bet  and somehow I thought that should be bet because of the odds not because its likely but the value of taking this bet means its fair to do so.  In CS anything can happen and yep that is just what happened, Fnatic beats G2 when really they shouldnt but all the biggest teams get counter strat'd and thats why CS is different I guess, teams doing their homework can bring the win.   Kinda amazing for them, hope they take it forward for another win Smiley

CS:GO maps may not be changing that rapidly when compared to other games out there, players are still finding new ways to play the game and to get ahead of other teams in certain maps and we love it. G2 is supposed to be a finalist contender in this last major, but they dropped to Fnatic whom haven't really been up to shape on the last few tournaments. It's still something unique in CS that not every other esports titles can't replicate.

  Even my 3 map bet for ENCE and NIP is not a winner, thats sad as ENCE have definitely done better in the past.   Anyway lesson learned, take 7x bets on underdogs if you get a feeling it could happen its worth it just for fun has to be Smiley

Or maybe just bet on some of the underdogs just for the hell of it with low amounts and just hope for the best? Grin

Miracle after getting into different team's and wins a lot of tournament and it's time for the new era of the players. I don't know kuro already win a TI unlike puppey and still keep playing even there's a problem with their team and his health condition.

We are going to continue with lower bracket matchups in the MSI tournament continuing on League of Legends. The first one is tomorrow which is G2 - BLG and the starting time of the series is 12.00 (GMT). G2 are one of the strongest European teams in this game but they still don't seem strong enough against Korea and China teams. G2 can at least fight better than NA teams in this series I reckon. But BLG would be the winner at the end most probably.

A day later, C9's job is very tough against Gen.G and honestly I expect Gen.G to win the series by 3-0 directly. I'm afraid NA gameplay is still not satisfying at all to me. Gen.G are even likely to reach the finale from here but it is better to not prejudiced already now of course.

DPC tour is Dota and CSGO both made by Valve but sadly no closer links then that Cheesy   I always wanted league or Dota but optional First Person view, but thats another game :p
Check liquipedia.com. Both of them and another esports league can be found there and it's always updated by the community right now there's a match that's happening in SEA and that's with Execration and Bleed Esports. The standing for these teams are currently 1-1 and it's a best-of-3 game so, 1 more map remaining and it's live now. Execration has got a pick of Huskar and Techies with Rexxar(Beastmaster). Let's see if they'll be able to execute whatever plans they've got on their minds.

While the DPC tour has already started for the two regions and then we've got some fresh faces and teams again coming from the division 2.

This is an exciting day ahead, later on the games are about to start.

Speaking of some new face, GH will be standing in for Boxi tomorrow against Entity. Pretty sure that Liquid is going to win against Entity but with Boxi not around, its going to change some dynamic of their gameplay therefore Im going for Entity 1.5 on this game. Other reason on why Im taking this bet is because the odds are great  Roll Eyes

Good bets for CS tommorow, I'm opting for 3 maps on Nip vs ENCE but I think ENCE win ? not certain enough.  
G2 will beat Fnatic I think and put that with a multi bet win for Faze Navi Liquid.  Thats enough ways I could lose on erratic performances but hopefully a decent bet

It has been on a downhill for some time now so it is not surprising that they will lose but to the weakest team, that is a new low for them. I do not know what happened to them, but they do not seem to get the frags that they used to.
There's another news about them and Valve has accepted this transition and that's good them and for the team.
