That's a nice try if someone bet for Boom Esports against LGD. It is China's superhouse versus the strongest in SEA at the moment yet, a 2-0 in favor of LGD.

Boom is now on their last journey if they're going to lose against Team Liquid in the lower bracket.

While LGD, advances to the semis and secures 5th-6th place.

On the other hand, Tundra is now secured for TI11.

This is always the scenario for SEA Dota. They usually dominate there region but so weak compared to international teams because the environment on SEA is cancer especially on pub since this teams always practice on this kind of environment, They are always left behind by strong international teams like China and EU.

I wonder if SEA Dota will improve or we just need to accept the fact that this is the limitation. We can go always on Majors and TI but we can't get even close on Finals or Semis.
As per topias(topson), SEA is a hard region to dominate and he understands their play style but yeah, the difference of it from the other region is overwhelming. Well, anyone can take that either positive or negative description.

But it's true that the playstyle of SEA teams are utterly different and quite far from the good regions of China and EU.

We'll see it then if they learn from these experiences, AFAIK, TI made a huge difference last TI but they're still far from being qualified this upcoming TI.

They'll go through the qualifiers.

Powerhouse indeed even going against former teammates in RNG doesnt really stood a chance against LGD.Im not underestimating strong SEA teams but it is really understandable if we do talk about on

whose gonna win but the main problem or common one with LGD is that they do choke on TI. Tongue
This is a different roster of LGD from the last TI, on the past tournaments, this current roster of LGD is really dominating but let's see if they'll continue up to the bigger stage.

Your parlay is very accurate as if you have a crystal ball on your pocket. What is the total odds for that parlay if you don’t mind to be ask?
Damn, it seems I cropped the image a bit too much. I am always sharing total odds and almost always stakes. What is the point of sharing oterwise? It was a really good day for me yesterday and I hit mulitiple tickets. Too bad stakes were quite small since I started the day with 0 money and just 2 free bets.

Total odds of above ticket were 4.59

Well , I got tricked with Entity as well as they really played much better than OG but they lacked team fight finesse if I could say so. Then , we had Outsiders with Ramsez who simply want's in his best day and missed so many important initiations with Furion and that ended up with losing the series eventually.

Today , for me , it's all about EG as I really want to see this team being happy and winning series and events.

Yesterday it all went perfect for me:


Hoping to continue in the same way today. I am also expecting all the series to go the distance and will be taking over maps. I might also take Entity to win since I did not watch that game from EG and what I have seen they were bad Smiley

Nice prediction @Trofo, Actually we have same result but the only difference was I usually choose +1.5 than match winner except for PSG.LGD which is obviously gonna sweep Boom because they sweep most of the power house team in there bracket and only Soniqs manage to get a game to them which probably just luck.

I might go with Entity @1.8 in the lower brackets for tomorrow as I think they have the edge over EG since they already 2-0'd them during the groups.
last time I saw EG playing they actually looked like a competent team and managed to beat Team Spirit with superb performances from RTZ and Nightfall. EG are still on the race for a TI spot so i expect them to put up a fierce fight. I would've gone with total maps in this series, but this is what i have for today:

Did you bet for Boom? They're at 5.40 right now but I highly doubt they can beat LGD. LGD only losses when they're not playing seriously like that Chinese qualifiers and of course during TI late upper bracket stages most probably mental effects and some pressure.

Since I am still at a loss in this tournament I will go for the safer pick. Fnatic +1.5 at 1.58.

I think LGD and OG will win 2-0. The Toughest games will be between Team Spirit vs Outsiders and Aster vs Fnatic.
That's a nice try if someone bet for Boom Esports against LGD. It is China's superhouse versus the strongest in SEA at the moment yet, a 2-0 in favor of LGD.

OG proved to be really strong in their matchup against Entity. They won 2-1. Saberlight was not able to do anything in Games 2 and 3 for OG out drafted them and they basically denied the laning phase to him. In game 2, it was the worst doom for saberlight.

OG won but it messed up your parlay. I guessed that game 1 was just an experimental pick that did not pan out that is why they lost. And they got serious in Games 2 and 3 to win the series.
It did look like it, after the first game OG instantly removed Entity's Chen and banned it on the next two games plus getting the Puck as their mid twice in a row really sealed the series for them as it offered so much impact on both games.

I might go with Entity @1.8 in the lower brackets for tomorrow as I think they have the edge over EG since they already 2-0'd them during the groups.

Also the Team Spirit vs Outsiders series is getting spicy, game 2 could've gone either way.

It is understandable with Aster and LGD to pick -1.5 maps because they are really strong in this tournament. If there is a team that have the possibility to beat LGD it would be team Aster.

But I do not understand why you would pick -1.5 on OG and Outsider. This match is more likely to go to Game 3 than these teams getting 2-0. Aren't you underestimating the strength of Entity and Team Spirit? Team Spirit normally drops games in the early stages but comes very strong late in the tournament. Entity is quite strong too as we've seen in the group stage. I think you are giving too much credit for OG and Outsider but we will see. Good luck with your parlay.


Just because their h2h in regional, spirit / entity never win single map against VP / OG. Picking +1.5 is not worth imo.

Also i think fnatic has higher chance to win at least a map but who knows, just small combo bet and believe china

PSG LGD made easy work on Boom Esports. They easily won 2-0 and in a very short time as well. LGD really looking good.



OG proved to be really strong in their matchup against Entity. They won 2-1. Saberlight was not able to do anything in Games 2 and 3 for OG out drafted them and they basically denied the laning phase to him. In game 2, it was the worst doom for saberlight.

This seems to be a long day of Dota 2 major games. Any predictions ? Besides PSG winning against Boom as we all think PSG cannot be defeated right ?
I think if you're on the YOLO mode. It's good to give it a try to Boom Esports. Yes, PSG.LGD is strong but sometimes they do mistakes that will make a big turnover.
Boom is good but sometimes they also commit mistakes and they can't recover from those mistakes that they commit. PSG.LGD is on the favor on this game but as I'm saying, if you're a gambler, and as well as a fan of Boom it could be worth it to put few bucks on them.

thanks for the feedback, guys  Smiley  i think Outsiders - Spirit is a coinflip so i'll skip this series. OG moneyline @1.5 is a lock imo. Still not completely sold on +1.5 fnatic or boom, the chinese teams are looking mighty strong in this tourney

@Visdome  tasty multi. Good luck

yo, is anyone's book offering a market for MS Excel Esport tournament  Cool

Yes, there's a MS Excel tournament going and even streaming on ESPN lmao

Would you guys watch it? I definitely will. Gonna support that Asian guy and may even place a bet for fun(if there happens to be a market lol).
how much IQ do you need to watch this? mine doesn't reach 400 (yet) so i doubt i could understand or enjoy any of it 😂 btw, look at that production, far better than what you see in some events from classic esports Wtf?

Tbh, this could actually blow up 👀 the sheer amount of people working 9-5 jobs and using nothing but excel on a daily basis is absurd. Might as well give competitive excel a try, see if you're up to the ask and if you are why not make it a side hustle. Or if you're not too burned out, tune in and see if you can learn a thing or two that can improve your daily workflow

For me , I see Entity beating OG and send them home because Entity and Stormstormer are on a role right now and I don't think OG will stop them.

I also do think that there are some chances for Team.Spirit to be eliminated as well from VP as that is a rival game that you don't want to miss.

Team Aster vs Fnatic ? Monet vs Timado ? Hell yea! Too bad is very late in the night that game.
I am onother side for that OG game, I feel like OG might drop a map but will have enough to win in the end.

I am on over maps in Team Spirit game as well as most guys here. Actually I am thinking all the games today except PSG.LGD should go the distance.

Great day of DOTA for us, however it ends.
