Evil Geniuses create a 15-man csgo team 👀 https://www.hltv.org/news/33953/eg-sign-carpe-diem-party-astronauts-rosters-announce-plans-to-create-fluid-15-man-team

The main problem for NA is in their strategy and discipline seems like. The euro teams are robots of destruction in comparison. Maybe EG have got the right idea.

I've seen a lot of comment saying that EG are taking the right step with this and that it has the potential to be something huge for the NA scene in the long-term, but i genuinely can't see how a 15-man roster is gonna help EG let alone the entire region Tongue

There's also an IEM promo going with stake (first map insurance) in case you guys might want to play it safe.

thanks
but, seriously, the Stake team really need to come up with a new csgo promo,, it's the same one all the time lol 😂🤣

FURIA - G2, i'm going with over maps x1.9, Vtg Furia, Inf G2 and then the decider which could be Ancient or Mrg
*EDIT alright, no more FURIA in my tickets
*EDIT nvm, i love Furia

Okay I get it. There will be a total of 30 teams headed to Singapore for this year's The International.

Actually a total of 20 teams. Top 12 DPC points for direct invite, 6 from regional qualifiers and 2 wild cards qualifiers.

Quote from: boyptc on June 02, 2022, 05:11:45 PM

10 will be eliminated at the early phase and then the 20 will go and play for the playoffs.

Im not sure where do you guys both got this from but it will be 20 teams to begin with and only 16 will be going through the playoffs stage.

Everyone's hype on this news about the TI12 and then there's still the Arlington major that's about to come, well. We have just forgotten that there's one to come before this comes.

We'll have DPC before that though, schedules has been released though with some region like WEU starting off at 7th June. So basically few more days before we have something great to bet on

This is ideal to us who really love to make a bet with the e-sports gambling the more games the more bet to the teams this is new that they move the tournament in the October previous TI happens in the last week of the may and of course another hype because the event will happen in the Singapore which is part of the hype SEA server peoples.

There's now an update of the schedules for the upcoming The International - 2022 for Dota 2 that will be held in Singapore.

The first schedule is for the last chance for the qualifiers and there will be 20 teams that will enter the playoffs. Well, if I'm still free, I would have booked a flight and ticket on this TI.

Everyone who's been a fan of Dota 2 and wants to watch the hype as the LAN has been back again after a long time due to covid restrictions would do something to be on the Suntec Arena watching it live.

The location of the upcoming even of TI is very favorable to SEA fans. I'm sure that it will be sold out fast considering how huge the Dota2 community on SEA. So I'm not vaccinated yet due to my health condition so it's impossible for me to book a ticket and flight even if I want too.

This Covid-19 ruined my dream on watching live TI. I hope SEA teams will win on this TI.

NA scene is full surprises

First time seeing an org having three full rosters i'm curious to see how it'll look in the future and I hope they do succeed as it'll be more spicy to see the usual NA vs EU rivalry.

IEM semis are scheduled later today, i'm going with a value play on FURIA @2.50 G2 looked decent so far but I think the odds should be more close since FURIA still kept the series close against BIG.

There's also an IEM promo going with stake (first map insurance) in case you guys might want to play it safe.

It's an official article from Valve that says TI Singapore will host 30 teams and that it will be the largest DOTA 2 event. At first I thought the article made a mistake because I also believe that there will be only 20 teams in TI group stage. It took me some minutes before I get it. The wild card qualifiers happens in Singapore too and is part of TI.

And yes you are right. There will be a group stage first before the playoffs.

They got the premier team for major, a lower team for many other leagues and Im not sure on the 3rd team but younger players select most likely but I havent checked all the players.

Tomorrow in the Intel Extreme Masters Season XVII - Dallas some very nice matches.
FURIA Esprots vs G2 esports im think G2 will win, Furia play very agressiv when G2 can handle this they win for sure.
FaZe clan vs Cloud9 Faze in my favortie. they are better in the gameplay butt cloud9 was a bit underrated the last jears we will see what happen.

The qualifiers are over and we continue with the quarterfinals, the IEM extreme Dallas tournament. The matches will be very exciting. In the quarter finals, my favorites are G2 and Faze. Cloud9 is not as effective as the old gambit team, FaZe team has been really on fire lately so I expect a comfortable win. My main expectation is to see the ENCE-Faze finale, most likely the final will be like this.

yeah i was a bit shocked cloud9 was for 2 jears on of the best teams but now they have problems its a bit sad. the wrong way for the team.
o yes last jear was the jear for gambit win the world champion series, maybe we see FaZe is the finals Grin

im realy like FaZe, they have so cool players in the team.

More chances for the teams to qualify as even the 2nd and 3rd in the regional qualifiers can still made it to Singapore in order to battle it out for the last 2 spots.

But before we get too excited on this, let's get to Arlington Major and its regional qualifiers first.

10 will be eliminated at the early phase and then the 20 will go and play for the playoffs.

A lot of things can happen especially for those who will be qualified through points and this major got the points that many teams will be able to secure a slot for the TI.

LEC and LCS are pretty much confirmed. LPL and LCK taking their sweet time to announce dates, as always

for me, there's something about current NiP that doesn't inspire confidence (like the're overperforming). i can't quite put my finger on it... Regardless, i'm with you on Cloud9, they are a far cry from that Gambit that we were used to seeing in the top 3 ranks

Unfortunately they couldn't take the first map, I agree with you NiP's rank seems way too inflated as there are so many teams that could beat them on any given day.

i was thinking G2 - Vitality over maps, but both teams are a tragedy lately, sometimes they look tier 1 pro players, sometimes they're making gold nova rank plays that make me want to punch my monitor Cheesy

I totally agree with what you said. Neither team is showing any clear momentum. Sometimes they work wonders as you said, and sometimes they can't make a decent game at all. I mostly observe this in G2. That's why I see vitality close for this match 2.09 odds seem attractive. G2-Astralis had a bit of a hard time beating, I think they lost the dust 2 map. He beat Vitality-Mouz very easily and I embraced their game more.

I don't get how Cloud9 is so favored against NiP when they got smacked 2-0 by FURIA, it feels much closer than the odds suggest so i'm going with the over 2.5 @1.99. NiP handled Complexity as expected but Cloud9 is underperforming again. Then again NiP still missing their IGL so that might be enough of a factor for Cloud9 to have the edge but I don't think they should be as low as 1.50. With that said i'm hoping both teams win their map pick pushing the series to a decider.

anyway, my single bet yesterday won, let's see if i can hit a another one today (boosted 1.87)
