The Dream League Season 19 Playoffs will start in a few hours. It is great to see great teams fighting tonight.

Shopify Rebellion vs Tundra Esports
This is a do or die match between these two great team. Tundra is slightly favored to win this matchup but ex-EG players Shopify Rebellion will surely not go down without a fight. Expect a great match on the first game of the Playoffs.

Team Liquid vs Gaimin Gladiators
The Win could go to any of these teams. Both teams are performing extremely well lately but I think Team Liquid is extra motivated to get back on GG. Gaimin Gladiators swept Team Liquid on the group stage so Liquid might want to return the favor. As far as I know, Team Liquid could adjust well against opponents so expect to have a good game between these two.

Semi Finals are up today in the IEM Rio 2023 tournament, with Cloud9 facing Vitality in the first match. I am a big fan of apEX and ZwyOo and think they will win against Cloud9 today. It's definitely going to be a close match that could go either way. But Vitaity managed to beat FaZe 2-0 the last time they played, while Cloud9 actually lost 0-2 against FaZe. The second match will be NaVi vs Heroic, NaVi is my clear favourite here. Heroic could even be a bit stronger than NaVi on paper as they won most of their last games. But the last time the two teams actually met was during the ESL Pro League Season 17 in March and Navi won 2-0. That is why I will go with NaVi to reach the finals today. And the grand final tomorrow will probably be Vitality vs Navi, which is going to be a nice game that could also go either way.

Think I was close enough in my guess, though it meant each map was close and that only counts with a handicap round bet which I didnt do so no cigar :p     But speaking of special bets, I think Heroic with a 2-1 win over Navi would be quite possible and also high odds it appears over 4 to 1 so seems worth taking, these two teams are not far apart at all.
Endpoint win their game or should do and Vitality vs C9 I do prefer to put on as 3 map bet again.

Heroic was the winner in a close match. I have to say that Heroic is one of the teams that really plays the team game well. Heroic is an admirable team in this regard. As we saw again, they showed us a good match. The important thing was to show that it was a tactical game, not a kill. Furia should be congratulated for their fight, but they need to make a few changes in their roster for success. It is very difficult for them to achieve success with this roster. Especially as long as there is art and drop

I don't want to be harsh on them but that's the reality that they're overrated. They're consisted of good and experienced players but that ain't enough. Even if they go to division 1, I think that they will have hard time competing there.

GG is like the new Tundra Esports. Tundra is still a strong team and that's why they're still in the playoffs. The touch of this team is still there but Team Liquid is certainly stronger now with nisha.

Well not anymore with the new patch, basically all teams have equal chance to work around the new patch. Its pretty interesting patch and so different than what we've seen so far

Im totally clueless for the playoff so I'll just go with picking out winner for tomorrow

There were no surprises in the Vitality-BIG match and vitality won. The first map was the nuke map chosen by vitality. Vitality played better on the CT side and won 16-12. Everyone in the team played well on this map except Magisk. The second map was BIG's mirage map. The score was close on this map but Vitality won again. This time apex didn't play very well but the team was good again. Overall the team's performance was better. We can say that Vitality deservedly won.

Vitality BIG is a 3 map series I think, seems possible both can challenge and win either teams map pick and cause 3 maps to occur in order to win.   I dont think Vitality win in 2 maps and if BIG do it will be very unfortunate for the team more then 10 ranks ahead of them.   Vitality have two 30 year old players, they will need more energy drinks for the win

This sense of overrated on Old G is due to their previous performance on past Division 2  DPC tournament. They dominated all the Division 2 tournament before Team Secret and other new Div 2 team existed on the list. I think those other teams that already removed on Division 2 is already outclass by Old G while the new team including Team Secret outclass Old G.


Team Liquid on Upper Bracket and SR on lower bracket but still Team Liquid and GG in the finals. Liquid and GG are dominating the Dota2 scene.

It is normal and necessary for Furia to get fan support against Heroic, but I think it will not be enough to win the match. I made a combination by choosing both vitality and heroic. It makes 2-odd odds. I think heroic will win the match. Jabbi had a good performance in two matches. This performance, which is not expected from him, increases the firepower of the team. Heroic is a team that does team play better. Furia's IGL arT sometimes struggles to make big decisions and this affects the team's performance.

Spinx is currently the highest-rated player in the tournament with an impressive 1.41 rating, surpassing Zywoo (1.34) and S1mple (1.32). His peak performance was on full display during the FaZe match, where he racked up 73 kills across two maps against the number two team. If Spinx maintains even a fraction of that performance, Vitality should have no trouble breezing past BIG.

In the other quarterfinal match, we'll see Heroic facing off against the home team, Furia. Although the odds favor Heroic, the match will be played in the Jeunesse Arena, where Furia is likely to gain a significant boost from the Brazilian crowd support. I'm placing a parlay bet for both Vitality and Furia for the IEM Rio quarterfinal matches.

Vitality defeated OG 2-1 in the IEM Rio Group B lower bracket final.The first map was the mirage map chosen by OG.We can say that this map was close in terms of score compared to other maps.OG won this map by a very short margin and took a 1-0 lead, but lost the match by losing other maps and was eliminated from the tournament. We can say that it was easy for Vitality to win in the match where Zywoo became the star.He tries to carry his team by passing the 60 kill threshold almost every match.Spinx was the player who helped this time.We can say that F1KU had a terrible performance in the OG team.
In the Upper Bracket final, we watched Furia vs C9.The first map was Inferno, which Furia chose.C9 won this map in overtime.Furia won the second map and equalized the situation. We can say that they had a bad t side on the vertigo map chosen by C9.It was already difficult to turn the match from there and they failed.On the Decider map, they won the match with a good team game.In general, everyone in the C9 team was good except nafany.

It's true that Old G is overrate but they didn't make it. Team Secret is in and just waiting for the formality of their retrieval back to division 1.

And going with the playoffs of the DreamLeague, 4 team left and I'm excited to see who's going to go to the Riyadh Masters where prize is higher than the typical majors that we're having.

Pick your bets now on the upperbracket, I guess many will be choosing Team Liquid instead of GG. And on the lower bracket, many will choose the former TI - Tundra than Shopify Rebellion.

Pretty much I was lucky to win the Gladiator vs OG match but Gaimin Gladiators are getting really good, in Game 1 Quinn with a Leshrac got 11 kills while the rest of the team is on support, taking 11 towers aswell, and all in Gladiator got 31 kills, but in the 2nd game OG retaliated with Yuragi's Ursa on 13 kills making the whole team got 33 kills 9 towers but on the 3rd game Gaimin Gladiators have taken the match but OG definitely got a chance in winning this but Gladiator says no way even though they have fewer kills they have gone with 2 towers to OG's 0 tower win aiming at Dire base instead,


This is it we are nearing the end of the Dreamleague season 19 I am surely readying for the playoffs for sure GG and Team Liquid will surely be dominant, but I am readying if an unexpected that will happen happens,

Here are my late post and I actually bet for the Gladiator VS Evil Geniuses fight but I felt asleep but hereis my my bet to that,

Gaimin Gladiators vs Evil Geniuses

I just posted this late but I have surely made a bet for this game and here are the tickets Gaimin Gladiators are so good right now even in their previous games surely Evil Geniuses got a chance but still they have won this aswell,

OG vs Team Liquid

Now Team Liquid is banging OG right at this moment and now have 1 score and game 2 is in progress as I posted this but I have surely got my bet for Team Liquid at this time,

Last day tomorrow and we're now starting to see the teams that are going to qualify for the playoffs and that's going to be a quick playoffs since 4 teams are going to be left while 4 teams on group stage 2 are going to be away.

GG and Team Liquid are likely going to be secured with the upper bracket spot. While SR is about to secure the 3rd slot but will go down at the lower bracket.

Both SA teams(EG and BC) are in danger of being out.

Well I guess everyone just fixtated on watching Dreamleague right now instead of divison 2 WEU. Old G is pretty overrated and they are not even as good as some division 2 teams right now

---

Meanwhile, GG lead the 1st map against OG so another win from GG then Im going to be happy with this bet 

Veterans team are now against each other on the division 2 (Dota 2).

Team Secret and Old G are now on their game 1 but this game 1 is in favor of Team Secret. Yes, they're now currently playing as I type this and the K/D score is 29-9 in favor of Team Secret.

It seems looking easy for Puppey's squad beating Topson and Ceb's squad. Alwayswannafly is a stand in on the Old G while Ceb is playing for the position 3 since there's no resolution.

I'm just waiting for some clutch if Old G can still turn the game since it's too much for them to recover but then, it's Topson's morph and can still have some unexpected game plays, only one mistake from Team Secret and this can be for Old G.

It was a dominating win for Shopify Rebellion game 1 was a close game with SR having 41 kills while Beastcoast got 40 but SR got most of the towers to win the game it was Arteezy's Morphling were managing most of the kills while the other 4 was focus most on the assist, to win game 1 and with game 2 same strategy Arteezy's Death Prophet this time while Fly and Cr1t- having most of the assist and this time a dominating win for SR,

While Evil Geniuses lost the game to Tundra but it was a close game, game 1 was for Tundra while in Game 2 Evil Geniuses won the game for a comeback but devastated in Game 3 with a dominating win for Tundra,

---

Now here is my pick for today's game Team Liquid VS TSM is now Commencing

Team Liquid VS TSM

For sure Team Liquid will dominate Dream League no doubt about that right now Liquid got 1 point ahead and now as I am posting this the game was on break, game 1 Nisha's Shadow Fiend has most of the kills for Liquid, for sure this is now a win for Team Liquid,

Gaimin Gladiators VS OG

OG was really bad this season so for me I am going with Gaimin Gladiators I think that captain Seleri will surely provide a great strategy, and dominating OG in their last tournament is what I think Gaimin Gladiators will do and OG having consecutive losses now,

Xizt was doing well on paper but I guess they have to adapt some strats, hence the difficulties in closing the map. This must be quite appalling for Heroic -1.5 bettors, they were looking really dominant with Jabbi on the first map.
