I wouldn't go that far though, since they manage to put up a few decent wins this summer split but yeah things aren't working out for them after picking up a new jungler and top laner.

I agree the over 2.5 is just screaming with value but i'll go with [email protected] since i'm having doubts on RA now that they're looking a bit inconsistent and I wouldn't be surprised if they get 2-0'd. Also it's amazing how the summer split became this competitive even in the LCK region.

LGD are crap, been getting burned every single time i add LGD to my tickets. Just like IG, they're underperforming this season, and when you think they're showing good form, you get a big slap in the face/bankroll

tomorrow. Bilibili - Rare Atom, battle of mids Zeka vs. FoFo, could be a banger. RA ml odds are a bit too low imo, 1.6 even though they've been very poor in the last 2 game vs. RW and FPX. BLG on the other hand have been pretty good after the 11.13 patch went live. I'll take the over maps here. Will prolly hedge in total kills o25.5, both teams avg. 13 kills per game, so...

Unexpected performance from TT yesterday  on to the next, my pick today doesn't have much value but I like [email protected] to win against LGD. I think LGD is performing better than i've expected this split so if anything this match is close to a coin toss but i'll give the edge to WE since they're taking their time to improve and make adjustments. With that said o2.5 or LGD +1.5 could be a good alternative.

I agree the same thing happened in the League scene few months ago where one of the rising players that came from the academy league was accused of fixing it's crazy how one bad action could destroy their careers.

Its not small money to continually pay for a pro team and to compromise results like that would be the end of the team.   Titan was a great org that got completely wiped out by the lasting impression of poor play, one of their players cheated and the sponsorship completely fell through for them.  Titan wasn't even banned, no action or official comment was made against them, just that 1 player wearing their jersey all the sponsors on it while being banned ended them forever hence; due to rarity Titan stickers are worth good 5 figure sums now.    Companies own teams, thats normal and they will avoid screwing up the asset value.

Valve recently lightened up and said there was a 5 year ban for very young players who had cheated, something along those lines.   Previously it was forever even if you been an idiot at age 10 but for setting up fixed matches they have yet to announce any let up for players banned 7 years ago.   I did think 5 years ban was fair in all cases as pro sports does, either way the sponsors and free market mean the org would go broke.
  In very low level games there is more trouble in this problem, they have less to lose and the team discipline can be absent along with any real backbone and so the fixing money is comparatively more attractive.  Australian csgo teams are facing jail on this issue.

I heard someone has control/stake in some Esports team especially on CSGO, after hearing this news i started avoiding matches in CSGO because something can happen, for example someone can control the outcome of the match. if you find a match result that doesn't make sense then don't be surprised, it's better to avoid betting on the ''winner'' option.

no top tier tournaments in CSGO for at least one month...rough

good thing league of legends and the LPL are not stopping anytime soon. At least two games every day until august. Good stuff

I've had a pretty good record in the last few days (5W, 2L) in cs and LoL combined, so if anyone wants to tail my picks for the next two LPL matches here's my betslip (: https://sportsbet.io/sharebetslip/801d3ede-5bd5-4b1c-a75b-6ae6e9e9e6f2

also, friendly reminder that the Dota 2 champions league 2021 is live! https://liquipedia.net/dota2/Dota_2_Champions_League/2021/Season_2

Bam what for a final match 
great to watch and Natus win the jackpot of 400k USD they win 3 rounds in arrow first map Dust 2, than mirage im love this map, and the last map nuke.
The yplay so strong they earn the win.

Glad that S1mple's impressive skills in the current CS:GO meta is paying off big, I have seen his plays and his clutch moments and I think that he definitely deserves the win.

This is what I'm talking about, Top team being slayed by underdog team making big upset, Betting a handicap pick is the best for this kind of matchup though. Well noted on this team for future reference on my bet.

I just watch last night the grand finals on IEM, s1mple gameplay is so sick, He even defeat 2 enemy at the same time on a close range using a sniper rifle while the enemy has a carbine rushing towards his position. His aim is superb which he didn't even need scope since he is just using it for just split second before he shot. Really love watching this game now.

With IEM finished I guess it's back to League predictions, I parlayed both favorites @1.6 as they're facing the two weakest teams in the region.

IG's situation don't look that great but they should still take the win against V5 who's currently 0-10 and same goes for RW they looked good last week taking down decent teams like Suning and Rare Atom.

Navi just won their match and clean swipped G2 3-0 in grand finale of IEM Cologne 2021. They deserved it the way they have been playing CS lately in these past 2-3 months. They have worked out a lot and building the team chemistry which is working wonders for them right now. 'b1t' and 'simple' were stars today but honestly all 5 of them played crucial roles today. GG Navi 

CSGO is just a better game anyhow, so time well invested either way.    This result is not really supposed to happen, Gambit is ranking world number 1 but we also have the abnormal condition of missing out LAN finals for a long time and IEM is just now one of the first hence potential for upset results.  

 FAZE are good in theory pretty much always but also often fail to deliver, here they did the opposite and were the surprise to most.


NAVI ruining my maps bet by just devastating and making G2 look like a pub team.   Niko is one of the best CSGO players of all time, wasted he wont be happy even though G2 get second place the Navi win should not be forgot this whole year.

Natus Vincere win 16 to 14 Natus go in the finals
Natus had realy problems in the first rounds on the second map its look like that G2 win the second map on the Start.
Butt now Natus play very good all players are in best condition today.
The finals gone be Great.

ESL Cologne Final and we have Navi and G2 locking their horns in the finale. So far Navi are dominating in this one with 1 map already won. Second map ongoing and they are currently dominating in that one too. Navi are just playing a great CS right now. I have all my money on Navi today. Lets see if they can continue with the domination throughout the whole match.

S1mple is truly an animal. He carried his team again and the navi team won a comfortable victory on the dust 2 map. S1mple played 29-16kd. S1mple is fully triggered, I have no doubt it will perform the same in other maps.

S1mple Clutch D2

ACE 5k s1mple D2

Just bear in mind that this match is played as best of five, so -1.5 handicap is still viable even if G2 takes one map.

It is a close first map but S1mple just had a monster round and probably clinched the map for NaVi. I am expecting big things from him and somehow he always manages to surprise me anyway. Hope this is going all the way to decider on Ancient. Proper way to finish the tournament

I prefer betting on the underdog team with +1.5 handicap. Usually it offers a good odds around 1.5 and above if they have a crucial fight. I never go for -1.5 even in dota2 since underdog team usually aims to get atleast 1 match  and having a goal means they are more motivated to win. I will try to analyse there next game and might try to bet some safe bet. Thanks to your advice!

You mean the IEM tournament for CSGO right ? The odds are somewhat one sided though so it's difficult to go for higher odds but fwiw I have Navi to win @1.4 here since they're the better team at the moment as G2 was one crucial round away from losing the series yesterday. The -1.5 map handicap is an okay alternative if you really prefer better odds but don't put too much units on it though.

It was not worthy of the semi-finals, it ended too quickly. I've said it before, but this navi is no joke 

There is a navi-g2 match during the day, I think we will watch 3 maps, both teams will push until the end, I will make my bet considering that.

Yesterday was a crazy day in CS:GO 
Today the IEM Finals cant wait that start. G2 Sports vs Natus Vincere, Natus play very strong yesterday win 2 of 3 maps in arrow.
They had a good chance to win Today butt G2 play some matches so perfekt. its gone be a great match.
