Well, Nigma looks going to be back at division II.

Yeah at this rate, they are going back to division 2. Im not even going to be betting on them because most of the time they are kinda weird. Sometimes I took the opposite team to win on 2 maps against them then Nigma ended winning a game so yeah Im not even going to touch anything with Nigma on it for now. Probably taking something on 27th on the game between Nigma and Secret, both are pretty bad right now



Anyway, Im taking Tundra -1.5 against Secret

Blast Premier Spring Groups have started. And it started with a really surprising result.

Evil Geniuses somehow found a way to get past Heroic by 2-1. I would have expected Heroic to finish the job on the second map which was Ancient already. Or winning on the decider would have also been okay for them - Overpass. Because they have more experience on both of these maps than Evil Geniuses. In addition to that Heroic's winning rates on these maps are high as well. They didn't have a good day. On Overpass autimatic and Brehze were very effective in carrying their team by the way - 26 and 28 kills respectively.

There is still a lower bracket of course. But their opponent will be much tougher than this - Vitality or Astralis.
It's good to be back in Tier 1 matches in CS:GO. EG was a 31st place team if I remember correctly. They managed to beat the top top 1 Heroic, no one expected this win the new EG doesn't look bad.
I watched the Overpass map during the Vitality - Astralis match. Even though K0nfig played 31-11 frags, I was very surprised that they lost, Device was the first time we watched him in a tier 1 match after years, he wasn't bad, it would be wrong to question the quality of his acting.

They're about to lose two tournaments from having DPC, unlike the other teams that will qualify and do better in this current DPC season. There's the DPC for these qualifiers and then if a team qualifies, they'll also be able to compete in Lima and top placers will still have another DPC points. That's such a wasted opportunity for them.

Worse is, they will be relegated back to Division II since they are currently last in the rankings. They still have 3 matches left, if they win them all, maybe they can still retain their current division. Maybe they can defeat Nigma Galaxy and ITB but I am not confident they can defeat Tundra. Tundra is still very shaky this season but they are still reliable to win. They are still the same roster as last year. Secret will have a hard time winning against them.
That's the challenge that they need to face, winning all of those three games but will they dominate with all of that? I have doubts on that as they're lackluster for all the past games that they've got. Three games are with:
  • Tundra
  • ITB
  • NGX
A not stacked team named ITB is even at a higher ranking currently against Team Secret and Nigma. Well, Nigma looks going to be back at division II.

Yeah, if they lose against Tundra tomorrow, the chances of being outside the eliminating teams will be lower. Too poor for Team Secret this DPC season and they have to come up with another strategy and plan for their comeback for the next DPC tournament or major and minor tournaments.

I won't be expecting Secret to pull through. They're literally in shambles, and it seems like even Puppey has already lost motivation to play for this season's DPC. It might be a wrong move to pick up Boom because the guy cannot do anything when faced against Tier 1 teams. Even though this is too early to call out things, the move is slowly costing Team Secret a lot.

I also didn't expect EG to complete that reverse sweep after they won the second map I thought that was it and assumed Heroic will turn things up in Overpass but surprisingly they still fell short at the end. I guess removing Cerq from their main squad and bringing in one of the best players from the academy squad was a step in the right direction for them.

The Vitality vs Astralis series felt like a choke from Astralis because whenever they take the lead and potentially pull away they somehow lose and momentum slowly shifts to the side of Vitality.

I've just noticed that Team Aster can relax now as they are guaranteed in the Lima major. How it did happened that they're already qualified for the Lima major?

They secured enough points and wins to be able to receive an invite to the Major. Considering that PSG.LGD isn't performing that great, and other Chinese powerhouse teams didn't post that much impressive results as well, Team Aster's invite remains a no-contest up to now. They haven't dropped a series yet I believe, so there's that too.
I see, I was thinking if there's another DPC tournament that has happened before but they're having a 5-0 run on this current DPC made them secure that.
Well, that's what being serious is and Chinese New Year is coming so basically, that's a good luck to them.

It seems that there's no hope for Team Secret, what a poor result coming from them with a new mid - Boom. And it seems that we're going to see the first team to be eliminated because there are only 3 matches left for them. You're doing a good job with these bets.
Most likely 2 series left since I doubt Team Secret would have a chance against Tundra tomorrow. They're still not guaranteed to get relegated though since ITB is still struggling to pull away from the bottom of the table and all it takes is one win for Team Secret and Team Nigma to force a tiebreaker.

Congrats on winning that three-legged parlay.

I also got a piece of Entity and I nearly thought they're going to get another reverse sweep loss when Team Secret bounced back in map 2 but luckily map 3 was so one-sided similar to map 1.

maj3r, the igl of the team, may especially want the anubis map to be played well. This new anubis map looks like it will include very important scenes. Memorizing everything of this map and tactical games to be made will give +1 point to each team. Especially if Eternal Fire works in a way to establish a clear superiority on this map, it will be very good in their favor. I have to say that they played well against sprout today, especially Calyx made a clear difference on the mirage map, the last map, and paved the way for a comfortable win against sprout. I hope these performances will continue throughout the year and they will have good successes.
We can clearly see that Majer and Calyx preferences are now paving the way for Eternal Fire. Majer is unquestionably a good In game leader. Calyx has been one of the players who contributed the most to the team in the last two games. Looks good on Anubis map for now Eternal Fire team a new map we can be better than other teams, generally if we practice this map, I think we can dominate this map over other teams. EF players already feel confident on this map.

Team Secret started poorly this DPC Season and I am not sure they are winning anytime soon. Team Liquid is continuing their streak from last season and seams to be stronger with Nisha on the roster.

Already 2-0 and then the current match happening, the last one Nigma and GG but GG already won the first match. And that seems that you're going to have all three later, hope so. Anyway, still congratulations!

Solid pick except for Team Liquid to win, it would be perfect if you took Liquid -1.5 instead of just moneyline on Liquid for 1.06 odds. Anyway, GG won the 1st map so good chance that this ticket is going to win as honestly I dont think Nigma would be able to even avoid the relegation to division 2 with their current roster. I guess bringing in ATF was a mistake

We're watching the Sprout-Eternal Fire match in the ESL season 17 tournament qualifier. Both teams won the map of their choice and it's down to the final map to decide the winner. Since it is the upper bracket final match, the winner qualifies directly for the esl season 17 tournament.eternal fire is currently leading. I expect eternal fire to win.

Eternal Fire are getting close to the ESL Pro League ticket step by step. The current map is going on in favour of Eternal Fire and if they win it they will advance. They finished the first half 10-5 ahead and XANTARES' performance is very lovely as usual. I wouldn't like to overlook Calyx's high effort as well. He is also having a great day considering all the maps played so far.

Anubis is a new map in the pool as you know and I was wondering what Eternal Fire were going to do on this map. But it looks like they were prepared for this as it was even their pick. They got a reassuring win there. Hopefully these wins will help the team chemistry to get stronger day by day.

Team Liquid is really putting up great performances but the bookies know it and odds on them are often very low. When they are playing against a bit weaker opponents like today, there is simply no value in playing on them.

Even -1.5 lines on Team Liquid isn't really that much juice and it's not worth risking your bet. While they are on fire right now, their value lies when they're against good teams. They can be a good parlay leg though if you really want to get something off of them while they are getting most of the wins at the start of this DPC Season. Outright bets, just don't bet on them if they're against relatively unknown/weaker teams and you're gold.

Betting against Team Secret is the way to go at the moment, they are a shadow of the old team and I agree they are not winning against any top tier team at the moment. They can be happy they managed to take at least one map today. It was their first map win after 7 consecutive loses.

Too bad, Xtreme Gamin ended up losing that game but I kinda wonder why would you go for PSG.LGD on 1.18 odds though? At that low, I'd rather go for -1.5 on PSG.LGD or go for +1.5 on IG because I kinda think that its pointless to go that low especially in 3 legged acca because one minor mistake ended up losing the whole tickets. On this case, IG won their first game so its rather intense game

It is in a parlay anyway so betting on the moneyline lessens the risk for that match. Unfortunately, my Xtreme gaming vs knight line lost so all of that was for naught. Also, I am still not very familiar with Chinese teams, so I avoid handicaps for the while.

2 out of 3.

These are good bets that you've got there. Well, on the SEA region will have matches later.

Geek slate vs Execration

Talon Esports vs SMG

Bleed Esports vs Boom Esports.

I guess there are folks there that have underestimated Execration because they don't usually gets high on high tier tournaments but they're doing this time.
