Well to be fair to OG, nobody seems to have a solution for PSG.LGD when they decide to play seriously. They are just on another level with all the heroes and strategies they can bring to play in any given map. It is not like you can ban a couple of signature heroes against LGD and then have an upper hand.

Well Notail and Ceb really knows well RNG because they beat them multiple times since RNG players is just the old LGD which is there rival while they play side by side with Ana which means they know how he play as carry. I’m not surprised how OG can easily beat RNG with this data in my mind.

OG is still fck up if they can’t find any solution to beat LGD which keeps giving them a hard time since Riyadh Master.

The Navi and Faze rivalry has now become a classic and other teams are having a hard time against these two teams. My favorite in the new tournament, obviously FaZe, is because of the performance of s1mple and b1t in the Navi team, if they are not on their day, things get more difficult. But this is not the case in Faze. Anyway, I would like him to join this competition with a third team, but I don't think it was a good transfer period, not G2. As the 3rd team, I think the team that will push Faze and Navi the most is Cloud9.

They are already qualified for TI, and the Arlington Major is just another filler tournament so as not to get the competitive scene stale. Thunder Predator can still kick OG's butt, though it will not be an easy feat given how consistent OG has been playing so far.

I'm kinda rooting for Tundra to make it through just to watch them take out some cheese strats. I just love watching them play even though they are also an inconsistent team that heavily relies on 33/Saksa duo to be ahead of their lane and rotate around the map.

Talon looked underwhelming earlier today I thought they'd get at least one map since they only have one series for today. They got outdrafted in both maps and in the second map as they can't even kill RNG's carry once.

RNG on the other hand after sweeping Talon quickly goes 0-2 against OG as the first map lasted 23mins and 12mins in the second map.  

I think both of them are likely going to be eliminated but they've already secured their spot for TI anyways.

2 days left until the group stages will end for the Arlington major. And the teams that should need to win all the remaining games that they have or else, they'll be eliminated on the very first round of this major.

From group A

• Team Liquid
• Thunder Awaken
• Talon Esports

From group B

• Beastcoast
• Tundra Esports

Well, the only two South American team is in danger and they'll have no representative on the playoffs if these two gets eliminated.

Now that the recent game was settled we are now moving on to tomorrow's game for League of Legends Champions Korea 2022

Nongshim Redforce VS T1

Stake Odds for this game are 7.40 for Nongshim while 1.07 for T1, Right now T1 has 12 Wins and 2 loses, because they lost a game from GEN.G recently, while NS Redforce now has 3 wins and 12 Losses, this two teams have fought back on June 17, with a score of 2 - 0 and guess what T1 always win, well it seems the results are always the same when Nongshim is always having a match with T1, all will expecting T1 to mostly wins, that 2 losses from T1 has come from Freecs and GEN.G having the win from Freecs was just a fluke, and GEN.G was the legit one, so for this match I will definitely go for T1 but I will not have a bet because of that kind of odds, it is not really profitable, and I am not risking my bet for Nongshim either,

Freecs VS DragonX Correct Map Score (1 - 2)

Stake odds for this game are 2.75 for Freecs while 1.42 for DRX, Right now Freecs has 6 wins and 9 losses, while DRX has 8 wins and 7 losses, back on June 26, these teams have fought and the score was 2 - 0 and DRX wins, my prediction for this game is DRX will surely win this they are consistent in whooping low tier teams but Freecs has a tendency of making a miracle like they did when they beat T1 in 1 of their games but that was not repeated, because I really think it was just a fluke, and so my pick is DRX or DragonX, and my correct map score is, 1 - 2 this time, I think Freecs will have a 1 map win,

Not really that enough even Ana did make some stand-in on RNG but it wasnt that much effective just because OG counterpick them and it was really that effective.
Luna + Puck of bzm then you could really tell that mobility is really that good. Plus proper itemization of Amar then it could really make a good counter play.
Now OG gets the game 1 and it was a good call considering that it was good for mid-long game picks.

Yeah, that's the truth about them but I think that they can still adjust on this one and will make it to the next round which is the play offs. As per looking at their standing, they're #4 and that's a good place to be in for the playoffs and far away from being eliminated.
Whilst for RNG, I've watched the game 1 against OG, Ceb vs Ana and OG won the first game. And the standing of RNG is currently 2nd. That's what I'm talking about them.

For some reason you left out TA and beastcoast out of the equation but I mean yeah SA teams are pretty weird to begin with and the results from these teams are out of sense


They have been playing with Ceb as part of their team. Well they've won with him on the last tournament but things are completely different now as most teams wasnt really prepared with Ceb's hero pool back then. Aside from that, they've secured the TI invitation therefore there isnt any need for them to push their luck further

Kaka showing off MVP moves with his Lion on game 2 against Talon. RNG beat Talon 2-0. They out-drafted and outplayed talon as Ana, Chalice, and Kaka dominated both games. Good to see that Ana adjusted well with RNG. Here's hoping to see him come back as pro again and not just as a stand-in.

---

LGD is still at the top after they decimate Team Liquid. They are still perfect score 8-0 in the standing. What team do you think can give the first loss for LGD?

OG seems off in this tournament. They still have not won a match. It is either a draw or a loss.

Boom literally being outplayed by international teams. They are strong on SEA but very week on other region on this major tournament. They are not playing like usual and it seems something is wrong with there team work on all the games they fought since this tournament start.

Ana is very suitable to RNG because he has an experience to play with Chinese teams while Chinese team supports are very versatile and very good on providing space that Ana needs to farm freely. We all know that is good carry if he can have a space to farm safely. Kaka is the real MVP on all of there games.

Don't forget about RNG as the dark house of this major. They may have not been in full roster but having a stand-in which is a former TI champion, and that makes them also one of the favorites. Actually, I thought that Boom will be at the top of the first 2 days but it seems that they're not.
They're in full roster with chemistry but despite that, it's really hard to get into those stronger teams but I do consider them as one of the best teams in here.

Dark Horses of Dota Major : NaVi , EG , Aster , VP

Favorites : PSG.LGD , OG , Fnatic , Liquid

Flukes : Tundra , Soniqs , Boom

Zone grey : Team.Spirit


This is the conclusion I've been up to after first 2 days of Major. Today should be a very good day of Dota 2.

The next big tournament in CS GO is only two weeks away from us now. BLAST Premier Fall group stage is going to start and we have three groups in this tournament. NaVi are going to be my favourite in the main tournament again by the way. We have really been accustomed to seeing them and FaZe qualifying for finales these days. I still can't see any other team that can change this situation. I wish G2 reach their level also but they are dealing with new transfers currently. If they have a solid chemistry after that then we might see them fighting more seriously for championships.

This was the August 4 match for the League of Legends Champions Korea 2022 game, it was a late post because was I very busy and I missed yesterday's game and today's game I haven't made a bet, but I will make my prediction on tomorrows game later, but I got a perfect bet for this game so I would like to share it here,


kt Rolster VS Brion Blade Correct Map Score (2 - 0) - PICK WIN - CORRECT MAP LOST

No doubt kt Rolster will win this, I was really hesitant in making a bet because of the odds, but I still did it, and I got my prediction with the Correct map score, buster and not correct, but kt Rolster pretty much has dominated the Brion Blade but Brion Blade have made the 2nd map their win pretty much Brion Blade have dominated the kt Rolster by not making them destroy a tower, but pretty much kt Rolster have given that match and make a big difference on the last map 


T1 VS Hanwha Life Esports Correct Map Score (2 - 1) - PICK WIN - CORRECT MAP LOST

T1 is expected to really dominate the game against the Hanwha Life Esports they got both and haven't made Hanwha win just 1 map as I have predicted will so I have lost the Correct Map Score, I thought that T1 will let the Hanwha Esports win just 1 map, but they have dominated the entire game, I really know that T1 will win this but I never thought that I would lose the correct map score because on their last game Hanwha have gotten 1 map win, but right now it is not really consistent,

Yeah the game was good but Talon literally got destroyed on the 2nd map. I had the same bet as well though

This is another silly case of I should have choosen to cash it out instead of getting it through the last game . I could have done so and the odds of the time of cashing it out was 4.4x or something.




It was an honest mistake of not saving buyback though so its not literally throwing the game as both teams are needing to get to top 8 to get the DPC points. Team Spirit was much better but that was so silly of them pulling that kind of mistake

PSG.LGD VS OG
I did not expect LGD to make easy work on OG. I thought OG can get at least a map from LGD but alas, OG lost 0-2. Unfortunately for me, my handicap bet did not work.
LGD proving to be very strong not dropping a game yet.

---

It does feel like a throw. Team Spirit does not have any business engaging EG on the high ground without buybacks. That or they underestimated EG since they have a very large lead, and they are not expecting a double black hole.

EG with one of the most surreal game 1 wins in the tournament so far. WTF was that at the end?? 🤣 RTZ was great, Nightfall was amazing literally carrying the whole team, cr1t was useless, but still, that was a massive throw from Spirit

anyway, currently in the waiting room, . edit* beastcoast, from not winning a single game in the last two series to taking a game from BOOM today... ok
