8 matches in the ESL one Fall today, 16 games in total, only 2 draws...ok  Lips sealed  i think i'll focus on LoL tomorrow,

Edward Gaming - Team WE, T1 - Gen.G, G2 - Fnatic...i'm psyched!!
Same here so many interesting playoff matches, want to bet on them all but I have to stick with the best odds which is EDG ML vs Team WE.

Team WE played a bit sloppy against RA imo they could've closed that series within 3 or 4 maps. In terms of individual firepower EDG have the edge so i'm expecting a 3-0 or 3-1 scoreline from this series. If things goes as expected we'll have another rematch between FPX and EDG just like the spring playoffs.  Cheesy

Edit : Tough loss, that performance from WE was impressive and at the same time EDG looked flat.

Sinners beating G2 is kinda bonkers, Im sure the odds were good for that for anyone who knew.
one team was super motivated going into their first game of a top tournament, the other one didn't know what to expect from their tier 2/tier 3 rivals

Sinners beating G2 is kinda bonkers, Im sure the odds were good for that for anyone who knew.   Sinners is all czech where G2 is mixed nations, really basic take that it can mean slightly less teamwork.   Oscar's team basically though he is not IGL nor even the best player in this match which should mean they have potential to keep doing good work I guess.   Never heard of them before tbh.

VP vs 0G I put as 3 maps but think OG takes it.   Right now seems like it'll be 2 maps, fail by me.   Maybe I should have guessed it'd go that way with Dust2 the 2nd map

oh man what is going on in the G2 Team im dident expect that that they lose, butt im must say Sinners play not Bad  Grin
hopefull G2 win the next match, an the second match was a bit like a punching ball, butt at the end OG win.

Cool day in the ESL ENCE win vs Bad news Bears, butt BnB play not bad.
Vitality vs Team Spirit first map very strong from Spirit 16 to 9 win, on the second map  vitality win crazy 16 to 4.  Grin
And the last match goes long and like a punching ball.
What is going on with Astralis today they lost 2 maps in arrow its a bit sad.

what are your predictions for the ESL One Fall 2021? these are my picks for tomorrow

btw, anyone watching RA - Team WE? what a match! onto game 5 (but Quake world championship day 2 just went live 😑 )

i'll give them another go on the +1.5 [email protected].
sucks that you got those odds. It's currently @1.6 in some books, but, even at those odds i think you're playing with fire here. Heroic are back to their "#1 world rankings best team ever" form, while Astralis are showing such poor cs, i don't even know if they stand a chance against teams from Malta Vibes series or development championship 2021 lol

for me, it's all about the LEC playoffs. Got Fnatic to win at 1.82. It's hard to ignore those odds on such legends as Fnatic (yeah, i'm a bit biased). IIRC fnatic have always qualified to at least round 3 or semis in the lec. Please, no surprises from the fluke team  Lips sealed

After that 2-0 win from Vitality I wanted to avoid Astralis today but given the playoff situation and odds offered between the ENCE game is very one sided so i'll give them another go on the +1.5 [email protected].

I know there's more value on the series win but I prefer the handicap since these two know each other pretty well and don't want to sweat incase it goes to a decider. Even if they win this series there's a very small chance they'll qualify since they also need ENCE to lose vs BNB since they lost the head to head.  

On the League side of things there's another upset as LNG took down the MSI champs yesterday.

In the Mirage map played for the first time in the Heroic vs Ence match today, Snappi carried his team alone and scored 32-8 on his own (141 ADR  Shocked ). Then overpass and nuke maps were played. Heroic struggled a lot on both maps, but they won 16-14. I think this match was the right of Ence team unlucky Smiley

Now, astralis and Vitality match is played. The first map Vitality is played on the Overpass map, one of the team's favorite maps. The second map will be played on the Inferno map. Once upon a time, Astralis epics were written on this map. If the last map is Dust2, I think it goes to 3 maps in this match.

Now live Spirit vs Bad news Bears okay im had think that match can be a draft butt no Spirit had 5 points BnB 0.
Spirit play very quick maybe to fast for BnB  Grin Grin
Later than Heroic vs ENCE  i had a bit compassion with ENCE dont think they had a chance.
And the last match today Astralis vs Vitality very cool match i mean,here its hard to say who will win Vitality is the better team but Astralis play very good.

That series was crazy, I stopped watching when Heroic was down during the third map lol nearly thought Vitality would close it out and secure the reverse sweep.

I want to ride the Heroic again as they're one win away from securing playoffs but there's not much value @1.4 so i'll be going with the over 2.5 on Astralis vs Vitality instead, expecting a tight series as both teams have a 2-1 record and a loss for both side would put them at a tough spot since ENCE also have the same record.

The fight for the quarterfinal spot is also interesting, ENCE and Astralis still have a chance to steal it from Heroic if they could win their last 2 matches assuming the tiebreaker rules prioritizes h2h results over round differential.

Also leaning on Heroic later vs Vitality, for some reason I feel like the odds should be more favored on the side of Heroic.

Heroic have the team work but Vitality have the names of the best players in the world, French teams have failed to capitalize on talent for years now;  odds are probably correct to respect the teamwork.   I will just go 3 maps because some of these results throw me like ENCE beating Astralis in 2 maps is a parallel universe event but I guess its feasible with a new team arrangement and ENCE I just dont know well enough to judge.  
  Further confirmed just now by Spirit losing badly to ENCE even on the sacred Dust2 which is practically their home turf but today they played it like it was a patch of no mans land; an epic 11 round difference loss.  Odds for that side bet would have been very high.

i've got a bunch of tickets lined up for this evening, and one of them is Heroic - Vitality over maps. Nuke free map for the danes so it's a matter of whether Vit can win ovp or not. Heroic actually have a decent record there, but in Zywoo 1.28 rating we trust ⚔️
I have that same pick but as a double with over 2.5 maps in Spirit - Ence match. Ence did their part and won their map pick. It was very even map without any team gaining significant advantage until Ence broke Spirit at 11-11 and finished in style. Now for Spirit to do their part and win their own map pick.

Edit: Of course Spirit broke and lost 2:0, seems like Vitality will do the same

A different result could not be expected in the Astralis-bnb match, it ended 2-0. Currently, the ence and sprit match is being played on the nuke map. going head to head. Second map dust 2 team-spirit team are very successful in dust 2 history. if they win the nuke, dust2 won't have much trouble either.

@tomahawk9 I agree with you that maps will be decisive for heroic-vitality matches. Vitality is very good in inferno and overpass maps, they will be advantageous in these maps. Also, zywoo's performance will play a very important role in this match Smiley

Seems there is a bug in captains mode inside this new DOTA patch. All games have been postponed. Damn, I was looking forward to continue my good streak from yesterday but it seems I will have to wait.

Also raining in my early tennis ticket matches, so no action this morning 😂
those are just signs telling you to avoid placing any bets today, lmao  Grin

Good thing I skipped on Astralis yesterday, I really thought they had good value against ENCE.

LCK playoffs starts in an hour and I got [email protected] vs AF, both teams overperformed this summer season but still leaning on NS since they're able to take down Damwon twice. The value is on AF but I don't trust them as much after their spring season results.

Also leaning on Heroic later vs Vitality, for some reason I feel like the odds should be more favored on the side of Heroic.

I can say that I was really surprised that astralis could not win even a single map against Ence. Astralis had an odd of around 1.53 and now there's the heroic-team spirit match. I trust heroic for this match, there may be a result that we will surprise again. I guess 3 maps will be played in this match even if the result is in the team of heroic. For Heroic there is a odd 1.50, It's a good rate, but after ence's win, I'm doubt it.

That is life of gambler while putting hours on "real work" - no time to properly check things.
can relate. That's why i try to avoid events i'm not familiar with, easier to spots those weird odds

Odds on Astralis is also tempting I want to parlay it with Heroic but my luck is horrendous this past week so i'll just stick with a single bet on Heroic.
GL!
I booked the Over maps at 1.9 but i'm tempted to place another ticket with total kills. In their last two meetings this year, every map finished with Total kills over 27.5, goes to show the quality of both sides. Lootbet offers map 1 total 26.5 @1.8 and map 2 total 25.5 @1.6 🤔 edit* as soon as i mentioned those stats, Spirit display their worst cs in 2021  Roll Eyes
