Boom Esports and T1 will have a match later for Dota 2. There will be no skem for that game as he's sick and their coach, Mushi, will be the one to sub and play for him.
T1 has to win their remaining games and series for this tour 3.
Because if my calculation is right, if they lose against Boom, they won't be able to qualify for the Arlington major.

I just notice that LGD is having a hard time on there DPC tournament which might be placed on the lower bracket. They might really give this DPC points to other teams.
That's the rumor that they're giving out this tour 3 to other good teams on their region. They have nothing to lose on this spot because they're the first team to get qualified for TI.All of these majors won't matter to them anymore if they're already in for the grandest Dota 2 tournament that everyone is hustling to get in. I don't think that they really have to think about it and whatever they do right now is in favor of other teams.
Some of them now are saving strategy for the upcoming TI but again there's a major update first before they make a release for the TI and for sure mostly it is a week before base in my experience next is LDG is not quite strong as before that they have in their position 2 with Somnus we know how this player really good at mid lane like he can face topson and sumail.
Does anyone watch and make a bet between the EU Rejects and Nigma its been a while that i see nigma becomes aggressive in their game play and now Kuroky makes a different hero pool imagine Zues position 5 really gives a global presence to them and the Dawnbreaker recently added in the captain mode most of the Pro team get this because of the heal it can gives and tankyness.

later today, 00NATION V Imperial, this is gonna be a bloodbath 🔥 smells like a Over 2.5 maps and Gaules getting 500k viewers on his channel lol
As usual, Imperial continues to deliver bad results and i'm surprised that the ranking update recently put them down by 1 when it should've been more.Also on the side of Dota, Team Liquid took down Entity 2-0, I didn't expect it to be one-sided but Team Liquid's draft was much easier to execute compared to Entity. With Team Liquid's win we could potentially see a three-way tiebreaker between Liquid, Entity, and Secret assuming Entity and Secret wins their next series while Team Liquid loses against OG.

It's a pleasure to watch the Brazilian derby. All 5 players from the former SK Gaming roster are in competition with each other. Taco and coldzera on one side, fer, fallen and fnx on the other. I think Brazilian esports fans are following this match with great interest. No matter who wins, in the end it won't matter for the Brazilians. The famous Brazilian broadcaster gaules currently has about 180,000 viewers.
Frankly, my chance of winning in e-sports bets is much higher than the other sports bets. I think that it is a big advantage to make a bet on League of Legends especially after seeing the team compositions. My only problem is that it is really very hard to make a live bet on e-sports on gambling websites. Odds are generally closed. Therefore I started to make combined betslips.
Tomorrow the next crazy matches in the Intel Extreme Masters Season XVII - Cologne
G2 Esports vs Movistar riders imt hink G2 will win this match

Chinese team Tyloo knocked out Mibr. Neither team could win their chosen map. As such, it went to the last map. Tyloo continued the tournament with a better team play in the last map. In the other lower bracket match, the Brazilian team managed to eliminate their opponent. This time, on the contrary, both teams won the map they picked and it was left to the last map again. The last map was nuke. Imperial started 13-2 ahead with a very good ct performance. T side struggled a bit but managed to overcome their opponent.
Big-Astralis and Sprout-Vitality matches continue. Astralis and Sprout are up 1-0. I think Vitality and big will turn the matches.

Nah they are not having any hard time at all. They are taking their leisure time probably going to skip the major as the current patch is probably the last patch for TI so their plan could be saving up their trump cards for TI ( and helping the teams on their region for direct invite )
Its confirmed now that PSG.LGD is the 1st invited team for TI and the next one would most likely be OG. OG is currently 1 point short from getting the direct invite and after the current DPC they will get that direct invite
IEM matches this week are very exciting, both BIG and Vitality managed to win their first match. The big surprise we saw with the underdog 00Nation winning against Astralis in the first match. That was a bad loss for me that I want to recover now before the weekend. Astralis only managed to win 6 rounds against the Brazilians. In a best of one game it can go either way, but that match was really one sided. Astralis will be playing against BIG today and even though I am a big fan for BIG, I think Astralis will take that game. The second match today will be TYLOO against Mouz, should be an easy win for Mouz, so far TYLOO hasn't really convinced me. And tonight is also 00Nation vs Imperial a Brazilian only match, I think 00Nation is hyped now after their win against Astralis and will take that match. For tomorrow there will be Heroic vs NiP which is going to be a very close match, not going to bet here. A save win for me looks like Cloud9 vs OutSiders, Cloud9 should win this game.
Some of the matches have really gone weird ways to say the least, currently BIG vs Astralis battling it out for a spot at the group stage, BIG have been the better side in this first map, it's currently 11-4 lead in their favour, at that's Astralis map pick (Nuke 2), so I'm expecting more from Astralis here, maybe the CT side would better though, because it's been one way game so far here.
EDIT: Astralis won the first map, without even needing OT, the first map ended 14-16, That'd be sure a blow to BIG because the seemed to really have the map at their mercy. Will BiG be able to bounce back in the 2map Dust 2 ?

I've updated the calendar in the OP! who's excited for some Apex Legends and Call of Duty action this month? both will have a Major with massive prize pools
on a different note, another BR team knocked out of IEM Cologne https://www.hltv.org/news/34189/tyloo-knock-mibr-out-of-cologne-play-in

I really doubt that other chinese team has a chance to win on Arlington Majors besides LGD since team from WEU, EEU and America is clearly improved and level there games that can rival again chinese dota.
We'll see, I want to say the same thing but the other Chinese teams have veteran players as well so I wouldn't count them out right away but I agree that the other regions did step up during the Stockholm major.This upcoming major is the first time again that we will witness Chinese team to face other Nations team since they didn’t show up on Stockholm majors but I’m really curious if there old style will still effective to other nations team especially on WEU team.

Astralis eliminated a relatively easy opponent yesterday. Complexity is not a strong team. We can say that Astralis was an easy target. Yesterday was another match where I was surprised by the result. Movistar Riders-Vitality, of course. I thought it would lead to the mirage map. But Vitality failed to make a presence on their chosen overpass map. We can say that this led to their defeat.
Dota2: Team Bald managed to beat Brame after losing game 1. Bald Reborn have really stepped it up and taking advantage of a few broken strats to beat better teams. Brame have completely lost the plot this season. After winning their first match against EU rejects, they have lost now 5 straight.
After Brame lost their mid player they're most likely out of the tournament but it was surprising to see them at least grab a map against Team Bald though.Brame is currently tied with 11monkeyz as both of them only have 1 series win. If it goes to a tiebreaker I still think they'll lose but 11monkeyz are still facing EU rejects at the final week and likely going to avoid the tiebreakers.
Also Team Secret got a crucial win against Gladiators which puts them now at 3-3. They still have one series left and that's against Goonsquad which should likely put them at 4-3 then there's a potential tiebreaker between them and the loser of Entity vs Liquid later today.
But those plays really aren't satisfying and it feels like it wasn't them that have played. Anyway, let's just give it the benefit of the doubt and look forward to other games for other teams and regions.
I'm looking forward to Team Aster v Xtreme tomorrow, it's pretty much a Final for both teams. And Vici Gaming will be playing their own final against Aster.Aries. Huge day in DPC CNWhile Aster, also won against Xtreme gaming for 2-0.
Well, these two Aster teams have been doing well and if both will able to finish this DPC season tour 3 at those places that will make them qualify for Arlington. It's still allowed right? Only in TI is allowed to have one team for the same organization.
Was that Yuragi of OG for Dota 2 that was eating during the final clash that they have in game?
What a guy. That's totally a sign of chill for their opponents as they're winning already. While on the other hand, ATF(Ammar the F) dropped the "mantle of intelligence" on their opponents outside near the fountain.

Heroic was very good as a team. Especially stavn worked wonders again.Heroic, became the first team to get a ticket to iem cologne.The Mouz squad is not bad, but something is clearly wrong.The Spirit-00Nation and sprout-Pain matches continue. 1-1 in both matches.I'm following those matches with excitement for now.I think Big, Vitality and Astralis will be the winners from the other matches that will start.
