If this is the game that you're mentioning, the game was won by SMG and not Fnatic. Anyway, the gamer's galaxy is already done and we've Boom Esports as the champion of this tournament while Polaris Esport is the 2nd.

Next is ESL One Malaysia.

We'll see Fnatic here and they're complete with Raven, so there is no more stand ins. 2 days from now and we're going to see them pack with actions again.

Fnatic really sucks when they are incomplete, I didn’t notice that they are playing in complete lineup until I check it on liquipedia by myself after checking the result. I’m just betting using the casino sportsbook and it’s too bad for me to lose like that just because I’m too lazy to check the roster line-up. I hope Raven get well soon for ESL Malaysia for a better betting experience with Fnatic. They are the only team capable to beat Boom on grand finals match.

I was wrong on thinking that Fnatic is complete on ESL One Malaysia 2022. They're still incomplete and Raven is out again and going to be replaced as a stand-in by Palos (Execrations position 1).

Next time, if you're going to bet for them or any team. Make sure that you're checking the little details because you may cast your bets confidently but you don't know that there's a stand-in or a player wouldn't play.

That really is a mess specially if the amount you're betting is quite high. Well, just think of it as a lesson learned and you'll always check updates of teams you'll bet for.

A sassy parlay to start the ESL One with. Gotta watch most of the games tomorrow to grasp the performances of the teams in the tournament. Taking TSM -1.5 although Im a Nigma fans because without Miracle, I honestly dont think the team will do much especially against TSM. Team Secret with their new roster should be able to take 2 maps against Thunder Awaken though

It's hard to have a pick on who's going to be the champ on this tournament but I think, those teams that are already qualified on TI would like to use some experiments on this tournament for them to have like a practice game preparing for the bigger event.

Yeah, they are not going thru the qualifiers anymore, so this is their chance to try some new combination to discover a new meta. I do not see any surprises here so I guess the top teams will win this tournament.

There’s always a pub game to experiment combos and item choice. They still need to have profit on tournaments for there organization even though they are already qualified on TI. The players is not playing for there own sake because they are being sponsored and being paid by the team management so I doubt any of them will gonna purposely show an experiment game since this still a official tournament after all.

They can, in the group stage. It is always better to do it against professional teams because it is competitive. They can see the holes in their strategies if it is against pro players rather than in pubs. They can experiment in game 1's of their group stage and take it seriously on the latter stages. They can still take the win afterwards.

Here is the result of the game yesterday

T1 VS Damwon Gaming MAP 3 - 2 - PICK WIN Correct Map Score (3 - 1) - LOST

It seems like a close match but for T1 that game 3 and 4 was just them making the game competitive, but I guess T1 players don't do much, and Faker doesn't do much Oner on the 1st game did much of the killings, while game 2 Gumayusi while on the game 5 the game was just a smooth sailing just to win, there is not really a chance for Damwon to win in my opinion it's like that T1 really know what they are doing, next game was really the one that I am excited about and that is T1 against GEN.G, match up that will be on August 28, that could be an unpredictable game for sure,

Yesterday the 2nd of the road to rio rmr qualifiers was being played. Turkish representative eternal fire lost to Into the Breach team 16-14 on the infero map. I don't find this defeat too abnormal since 2 new players joined the team, but there is a big problem if we can't beat teams at this level despite being newly formed with this.The teams that qualified for the main qualifier from this qualifier were; fnatic, forze, k23 and monte teams.

anyway, T1 just beat DK. didn't expect DK to go the distance against Faker & co, but what was that draft from DK in the last game? yasuo, heimerdinger, azir top... of ccourse, yuumi + zeri combo will snowball in the late game. And V5 with a huge comeback in game 4, Karsa woke up and chose violence Grin

I was also surprised DK pushed T1 through all five maps it felt like their series was similar to KT vs Damwon the other day.

Also, another upset with LNG winning that game 5 against V5, it's only going to get tough heading into the next round where they'll face JDG.

I just browse now the ESL One Malaysia details and surprised that Alliance is still invited despite there poor performance on there previous game. I thought they are still relegated to Div2. I am rooting for Team Liquid on this tournament to give justice for there poor performance last Major. They are so good on tournament like this without PSG.LGD and TS.

It's okay, whoever team is directly invited by ESL to join them.

There's no DPC points on this tournament anymore and that's okay. It's a choice of theirs of whom they're going to invite, while the other teams are really good and went their way through qualifiers.

It's hard to have a pick on who's going to be the champ on this tournament but I think, those teams that are already qualified on TI would like to use some experiments on this tournament for them to have like a practice game preparing for the bigger event.

Astralis lost to a rank 200 team and it now says they are eliminated from the major, at least in this set of matches.

Astralis is ass in online matches. This time it was Farlig's fault. He was missing easy shots.
They need a better awper(Device Wink

)

They still have got one more chance to qualify.

Faze easily beat EG but still maybe the +round difference bet would have been nicer odds. I went with the simple win

I went with Faze -4.5 handicap in a parlay. Odds on straight ML weren't that good.

Quote from: Pulsar77 on August 21, 2022, 02:35:32 PM

And we finally have the winner of the Group C as well!

I must admit that I'm surprised with the result. Because FaZe have been a really unstoppable team for a long time. Even NaVi have struggled against them in many final matches in big tournaments. They performed nicely until the final match of the group actually and defeated Heroic once also. But Heroic were so ambitious that they made it to the finale and this time beat FaZe. This is a surprising result after the results of the first two groups.

Now FaZe will need to beat two opponents consecutively to be able to move on in BLAST Premier. NaVi have become more successful than FaZe so far despite not having s1mple in the matches.

I wasn't expecting Padian and his troop to outmatch everyone. W against Big was expected, but a win against Faze was totally unexpected. No longer onliners ig lol

I was expecting to read there is another way to qualify besides this failure of best of 1 matches, clearly a coin flip contest in map choices is not the ideal standard so I presume they get some harder route to qualifying. Strange I havent read about anything it.

I just browse now the ESL One Malaysia details and surprised that Alliance is still invited despite there poor performance on there previous game. I thought they are still relegated to Div2.

They are a team with still a huge fanbase and this is not really an official tournament for DPC ( more like a commercial tournament ) so it doesnt really matter if they get invited due to their bad performances. Even Nigma got invited despite that they were in the 2nd division as well because most of the WEU teams have large amount of fanbase

Miracle is confirmed that he wont be joining the team on ESL One Malaysia due to health condition so Nigma will be playing with a stand in

I understand that but it’s just odd for me to see this team instead of other team especially on EEU that deserves spotlight like this. Nigma shows good performance on Riyadh Master and I think Nigma is currently in the line for promotion to Div 1 on the next DPC points. They are undefeated on Div2 that’s why I believe that they are already improved there recent downfall.

I don’t see this on Alliance even with W33.

Many matches were played in the Blast Premier Fall Groups qualifiers today, and now we have reached the final in group C, the match will start soon. Faze and Heroic will face off Heroic is in good shape but it's really hard to win against Faze. They had already played a match in the semi-finals, from there Consolidation had sent them to the final where they barely beat Heroic BIG. Faze and Faze will meet again in the final, it has to be an easy win for Faze.

There are plenty of strong teams playing in ESL One Malaysia aside from FNATIC and BOOM. There is OG, Entity, Aster, Secret, and TSM among others. There are plenty of teams that can stand toe-to-toe with BOOM. But yes, hope Raven is well and will be able to play in ESL Malaysia.

I think Aster and OG are favored to win ESL Malaysia but it could go to anyone. I am watching secret at this tournament and see if they have improved since adding Reso.

I'd go with OG to win ESL Malaysia. Aster is just too much of a risk to bet on considering how hard they choke, especially on crucial games that needed their 100% focus. We've seen it in a lot of tournaments recently, and even though they are capable of winning said tournaments, they just can't because they fail somewhere along the road to championships. They'll always live behind the shadow of PSG.LGD, even though they've proven that they got what it takes to defeat this Chinese powerhouse time and time again.

Team Liquid was knocked out by Boom on the first round of Lower Bracket qualifiers while there’s still changes on the patch for the ESL One tournament. I doubt Team Liquid can easily adjust with that poor performance since they are facing some of the same team that gives them a hard time on Arlington Major. I respect what Team Liquid capable off but Matumbaman game is not the same after he take a break on the Riyadh Master.

This is correct, I’m not a a fan of Aster because of there choke probability is very high. I will go for OG instead of Aster because they are so good on crucial match like this without Team Spirit and LGD. I was supposed to choose Nigma as Dark horse on this match but without Miracle, I doubt that they can slay giant team like OG and Aster.

Team Secret is probably the Dark horse on this tournament. I don’t consider SEA teams can manage to give a surprising result due to Arlington Major result.
