Some interesting League matches starting in an hour or two, going for a multi play between Liiv Sandbox to win vs KT Rolster and over 3.5 on LNG vs Suning @1.8 the odds on the over is moving a bit higher but i'm still confident on this two.

I might be wrong here but Liiv Sandbox is one win away from sealing one of the top playoffs spot and this is the best chance they'll get because their last match is against Damwon.

Suning and LNG are both competitive teams, their last meeting during this summer season ended 2-1 tbh i'd give the edge on Suning as they have the tendency to surprise other teams during the playoffs but LNG had a decent improvement this season so hopefully we'd see a 3-1 scoreline.

Unexpected AF can win 2-0 against NS.
bunch of bots NS lol won't add them to any more bets

On top of that it's surprising to see Liiv Sandbox contesting for the first LCK spot.
wtf did miss!?? how tf is this team at the top of the standings? 😂 i bet they've been the underdogs in the bookmakers, imagine those odds, missed out on making some money...welll, they'll play DWG next weekend and the ml is @2.98 and +1.5 @1.6. What's gonna be your pick? i might drop a few units on handicap, odds will prolly get slashed as we get closer to the match

I like Quake Champions and I know a high level player who only really rates it as the one proper FPS.  Its the original we'd never have got the rest without Quake establishing itself way back.   The Half life engine was Quake based but in terms of audience its not really a team game and I think other games are better to watch and bet on.   Being a pure FPS makes it more of an elitiest sport imo, I'd say similar for battleground
you hit the nail on the head. Team based shooters are much more fun to watch, especially for the majority of esports audience in 2021 who are not used to 1v1 fps games and prefer playing/watching games like csgo, team fortress, rainbow six, etc. But i would like to see a fps arena resurgance in the future, i think this genre has a lot of potential

Oh Quake makes me feel young again , you know ? I really miss the great old days of quake but I'm glad that even to this day we have a die hard community and active championships.

Right now, I'm watching some OWL league just because I still like Overwatch even if the latest development around the game have been kinda bad and not in the same direction with the fans ideas. Also the fact that T-Mobile left OWL last week , made them congest the schedule even more in order to reduce the payments...what is going on at Blizzard guys ? Is this the downfall that have been predicted a long time ago ?

yeah the Quake Pro league is playing the latest game in the quake series called quake champions. Pretty fun and fast paced game to watch. Too bad only a handful of bookmakers offer quake markets, but it's a niche videogame, so...

Bad News Bears on  4 match win streak  but their ptr their player with the most experience has left the team which is quite significant thats its a bit more risky to bet them.  I'd go 3 maps maybe to hedge.   Today is a special event but they play every day next week in ESL against the highest rated teams in the world, all of it long odds and likely to stay that way.  Again I'd speculate 3 maps on some perhaps is the best bet and hopefully we will see their latest player to join 'junior and his performance.  Don't think much of his name but we'll see

Unexpected AF can win 2-0 against NS.
I already saw it coming since AF were able to beat Damwon and Gen G recently. On top of that it's surprising to see Liiv Sandbox contesting for the first LCK spot.

Switching to LCS just for today, since I like the odds on Cloud9 @1.6 this summer season they took down Team Liquid 3-0. With that said i'm hoping for a similar outcome, it probably doesn't mean much since certain teams can pull off upsets but imo Cloud9 are slightly better.

Edit : Yikes what a letdown from Cloud9, props to Liquid for the upset.

Dota PIT CN starts tomorrow and i already booked the over maps between RNG - Aster.
Could be, but I chose PSG.LGD vs. Vici for my over of the day. That game simply screams over for me and I had to place bet on it.

Lost a great multi ticket yesterday on Puckchamps not taking at least one map. They had a very good lead in second map and it looked like they will take it by the minute 20 and they just stopped and let Thundra back in. How come that never happens when I need a turnaround  Huh



Now that I have posted this I can see it is all my fault, that bet ruined the flavor of the ticket, betting on favorites taking the match in straight sets/maps. Never good to provoke destiny like that  Grin

DOTA PIT CN today's match PSG LGD and VG are both strong teams and runners up in TI 4 and TI 8 if I'm not mistaken. too bad in dota PIT CN there isn't no EU team only asian team. even though I was really looking forward to the nigma / OG team but there is no upcoming match yet for them .

Good luck with that bet Aster.Aries versus Elephant would be one of the easiest bet I guess. Unless Elephant would do some experiment on this tournament then they shall lose against Aries.
Price money on this tournament seems to be higher than the usual tournament price pot that we see on the sea.

LCK also continues with Nongshim RedForce trying to secure 1st place in the standings against AF, and i went with the redforce -1.5 handicap cuz why not? NS are on fire lately and those are pretty good odds, high iq analysis  Grin

Also, don't be deluded that Youtube as a streaming platform isn't great, t's doing just fine even if Twitch is at the top.
blizzard could be making some good money (from subs, sponsors) if they were streaming more tournaments (hearthstone, brood war, OW) on twitch, but why won't they do it? do they have some kind of exlusive deal with google or something?

I didn't blame the game, the community of OW is good and cool and they care about the game, it's the developer that I am angry with because they've been neglectful with their management of the game. Also, don't be deluded that Youtube as a streaming platform isn't great, it's doing just fine even if Twitch is at the top.
Don't get me wrong though I still like youtube even as a streaming platform I only mentioned a couple of downsides but other than that they really have the potential to take over the streaming competition. Tbh I even prefer youtube over twitch all I want to point out is that viewership growth is somewhat difficult to maintain on the youtube side since twitch is the go to streaming platform.


Later there's a spicy match between Gen G and [email protected], already took T1 as my pick I know both teams don't look that great but i'll take the slight advantage on T1 as they have the side selection and they won 2-0 in the last meeting.

I don't think we should put the blame on the game I know the OWL is somewhat losing viewership recently but I think it's mostly because of the exclusive deal they took with youtube and we all know youtube's live streaming community isn't that big compared to twitch and visibility isn't great as browsing through their live section is a bit of a hassle.

As expected both matches ended in 2-0 on to the next, placing a multi bet between both LCK favorites today @1.96 as Liiv Sandbox is one win away from securing playoffs. I don't recommend taking Damwon's odds as it shouldn't be this high since their recent results is all over the place but they need to pick things up and regain their old form before the playoffs. Over 2.5 and +1.5 handicap on BRO seems like the better option since they're able to take a map against the mid-top teams.

Now that the playoff teams is already decided in LPL i'm looking forward to tomorrow's LCK but it doesn't hurt to throw a small bet on the underdog handicaps as the odds are so one sided against FPX and Suning.
Damn those odds are good, especially on Victory Five taking at least one map. I know they are bad but in situation where it doesn't really matter this should be priced around 2.5 not 3.9 at least for me. Following your bets for sure but as singles, too risky to put them on as double. This way if one of the underdogs takes just one map it is already enough for the profit.

Also taking it step further with ML double, V5 and TT to win their matches @54, just for a very small bet to try and catch favorites relaxing.

Interesting roster change from Fnatic picking up Alex and mezii it's not what I expected but I guess it's better than sticking with their veteran players. On paper it doesn't seem that great but if their performance bode well over time I could see them peaking somewhere around top 20. Also it's crazy how Faze gained 30 ranks just by finishing 4th in IEM.

Just came back from rest days, not that many exciting games for Dota 2 [...]
it's been a super boring month in dota world...Dota PIT, so close yet so far
True but I've recently watched yesterday the actions that came from the BTS pro season 7 in SEA.
Link: https://liquipedia.net/dota2/BTS/Pro_Series/7/Southeast_Asia
There's T1 and Fnatic competing there but it seems that T1 is saving all of their energy to T1 and keeps losing since this tournament 2 days ago.
