I've seen the news about the NA Dota Team, TSM. That they have now a coach and it's misery. One of the players that have been good and nearly got the TI crown with his former team Digital Chaos.

AFAIK, he coached TSM on the ESL Stockholm and they've ended 2nd place. Although during that time, he's like a part time coach and wasn't hired yet officially.

I personally think that TSM is going to be the one team that will get the slot road to Arlington major.

Yeah TSM current roster is very strong in there run on the recent major tournament is very impressive by defeating all power house team on the upper bracket and just lose on the grand finals to OG that they already defeated on there earlier match. I'm not sure if this is all misery work but TSM grows amd exceed all the teams in NA including EG which is the old top team there.

On the Div 2 WEU DPC qualifiers tournament, Nigma seems dominating Div 2 teams as expected by many. Sumail is so strong on all of there games and very satisfying to watch. Having Nigma on Div 2 makes it exciting to watch compared when they are on Div 1. Cheesy

I blame WBG's ON and TheShy for being dogshit in game 2, no impact whatsoever. With ON/OFF it was always a 4v5 for Weibo because he oversteps or doesn't know what he's doing (bad comms?). OFF is a liability. TheShy is having a really underwhelming start of summer split, he didn't look that good against IG the other day

and earlier today, FPX lost to IG. FPX at bottom of the leaderboard with a 0-2 record, didn't expect that, eh?

I agree ON always likes to start the team fight making him an easy punching bag for EDG to pick off, giving an advantage on the side of EDG to take the momentum and control of the game. On top of that their draft didn't look that great, Draven looked somewhat underwhelming as a carry compared to the other usual champs.

That FPX loss was indeed surprising, kind of weird to see them suddenly become a low-mid tier team this season.

anyway, tomorrow we'll have Weibo Gaming - EDG. Over 2.5 seems like a lock imo, but I saw EDG the other day and they looked a bit rusty against FPX, plus Weibo ml @2.2 odds? sounds like good value to me, we won't see Weibo with those odds very often in the split 🤔

I agree, both of their first series ended up going 2-1 and it was against weaker teams so the odds should be lower than what the bookies offer now. I'm staying away from the ML but I also like Weibo's odds since it should be around 1.8 at most or maybe even lower given their head-to-head result (5-1 in favor of Weibo) during the spring split. The bookies are just giving too much respect on the side of EDG even though they're the more experienced team i'm still doubting EDG's firepower here.

Some top tier WEU dota for tonight

Honestly both teams are bad but Team Secret should be way better on Alliance hence taking this risky bet

No doubt and that's why Team Secret took this into 2-0.

I think team secret has expertise in the field of the game so they always show that greatness at the end, and as seen they took the game seriously in the final round so that the opponent wouldn't think that and would only think that team secret couldn't play, but actually the power of the secret team was only released during the final round.

They won't be on the tier 1 or division 1 if they don't have the expertise and if they are not professional players and as a team.

Goonsquad won against Team Liquid

I also didn't expect Team Liquid to lose the series but their draft was just underwhelming it felt like they were overconfident. They had good chances to close out the series during the second map but for some reason, they stalled out the game long enough for goonsquad's core to go online.

Yes, I've felt the same that they've got too much confidence maybe because they've got jerax on their back or they're just overjoyed to play.

In fairness with goonsquad, this team is with s4 and other experienced players so teams shouldn't underestimate them. In dota 2, there's no longer strong player but it should be all connected as a strong team.

The Eternal team had a good win against Entropiq. I'm watching the matches they played with Ex-Mad Lions right now. Ex-mad Lions had a comfortable lead on their chosen Mirage map. Here, the poor performance of Imorr stood out, and it had no effect on this Mirage map. The next map will be Nuke, this map will be decisive for the Eternal Fire team.

I had a chance to watch the match. Eternal fire lost the match with individual mistakes. Ex mad lions players woro2k and JL are playing very strange. They are peeking with confidence. I found it a bit strange. I think the team needs a proper coach. I think the current coach bishop is ineffective.

Eternal fire eliminated entropiq.They will play ex madlions tomorrow. If they win, they will advance to the quarterfinals.

Nip managed to beat Mouz in the final despite being without a key player. To be honest, I didn't expect that.

In the Pinnacle cup tournament heroic became champion as I expected. They have a really legendary roster. They have a roster that will challenge their opponents in every tournament. farlig was very ineffective as awper and they were doomed to defeat.

Skipping Dota for today as I already locked the over 2.5 on LNG vs BLG, LNG should take the series but the odds are leaning way too much on the side of LNG and BLG is still a decent team that could easily grab a map and push this series closer than expected as they've now got Bin as their new top laner.

https://i.imgur.com/H8Stxul.png

i went with the same pick and added it to a parlay

locked this one right after TES lost to JDG yesterday (i had TES to win Roll Eyes

)

anyway, tomorrow we'll have Weibo Gaming - EDG. Over 2.5 seems like a lock imo, but I saw EDG the other day and they looked a bit rusty against FPX, plus Weibo ml @2.2 odds? sounds like good value to me, we won't see Weibo with those odds very often in the split 🤔

While on the match before this, it was Goonsquad and Team Liquid. To give an idea, Alliance and Goonsquad came from division 2 and it's nice to see them into Division 1.

Goonsquad won against Team Liquid and I'm surprised to see that TLs coach is jerax. Actually, he looks better on the video when I've watched it compare to when he's playing for EG.

-snip

Quite good odds on the side of Secret, although I agree that both of this teams are extremely shaky and out of their form. Automatically this is a skip in my book, but if you think about it, there are not much tournaments left before TI so most teams would surely want to win all of the points that they could in order to get placed in the qualified teams and not battle it out in the open qualifiers

ikr and it turned out to be 2-0 for Secret. It was a shaky 1st map and Alliance had a slight advantage but Team Secret turned that over. Decent odds although its pretty much on the lower end because most of the time taking -1.5 odds would be around 1.8-2.2x so yeah glad this one turned out to be a decent win to end the day with ( gotta enjoy the remaining games without taking any bet now )

There would be two games from NA teams as well after this, not too fancy to bet due to favourites vs underdog teams so the odds are pretty lame even if you are taking the -1.5 options

I'm watching Heroic-BIG match on pinnacle cup right now. The matches are running very close. Heroic managed to win the first map in overtime, thus losing to Heroic on their chosen map Mirage. Now the transition to the overpass map has been made, the scores are very close here too. If Heroic doesn't make a mistake, two wins on maps will have eliminated the BIG team. In a few hours, the final match of the Dubai tournament will begin. NIP-MOUZ are in the finals.

Big's roster is still inadequate in my opinion. There's a syrson in the team whose performance is more or less the same. Tabsen is already igl as far as I know. You shouldn't expect too much from him, he gets enough kills. The performance of the players in one match is not the same as the other match. There are many differences. They need to solve this first. Heroic already has one of the best rosters in my opinion. Their success is inevitable. They play a good team game. I think Xizt also contributes a lot.
