Taking Mousesports to win the grand finals @1.66 vs NiP, banking on ropz and frozen to pop off once last time.  

The upset potential is always there on the side of NiP since device and rez could go god mode at any given day but I feel like they're overperforming with all of their reverse sweep wins.

Also what do you guys have for today?
Same bet for me. Mousesports have been excellent in winning most important rounds and I expect them to continue in same fashion today. I had them as a double with Team Spirit which just finished 2:1 in their favor. 

I also have over 2.5 maps on Astralis game but that is on a low stake ticket where another pick has already started very wrong so probably not gonna matter.

Nip are a good prospect but I dont see excellent odds.  I'd agree with mouse based on the amount of times they have won in 2 maps which means they won their enemies map pick frequently.   Anyone who really likes Nip here should predict 2-1 result and thats near 4 to 1 odds.   I'm really not sure I will go for >2.5 maps just for fun

I dont see an upset potential for Big over Astralis, their map pick is Dust2 vs Astralis I wouldn't expect that though its Big's best map perhaps Im still not aware how they'd pull that off besides luck.

I am so much hoping to see Furia play Liquid on Vertigo. Small map but it is really lovely to see how crazy art goes agressively there. Always enjoyed Furia playing on Vertigo.
one of the best matches i've watched this month. What a series! add to that the caster with the banter and the jokes...10/10, would watch again

we could see a rematch in the final tomorrow IF furia can beat Extremum. I'll back Furia again if they meed Liquid again (:

Yeah really a sensational one. I could also say the same for me about the best CS game I watched for sometime now. Normally it would be one sided but that match was woo...evenly matched and nail biting one.

I didn't put focus on casters... But I watched the highlights...seems like Harry to me...if yes then yeah he is really the best caster.

BTW Nip vs G2 wasn't that bad either.

Entropiq vs Hyenas is a funny one, the lesser team is rank 100 but I recognise most of the names; they play a team at rank 15 which should not result in a win.   They are players from teams not in operation now so not likely to have as much experience working together but still they could be a good underdog bet.
  I dont really recognize the rank 15 team, just havent seen them really.  So its a risky low bet for me, I'll go with 3 maps see what happens.   Odds for Hyena is as much as 6 to 1 so its a value thing.

big day in CS tomorrow with 3 grand finals: flashpoint, CIS league and cs_summit

Mousesports - NIP.  Mouz haven't dropped a map so far but notice how close those wins were in their map picks: 16-11 in Nuke vs. BIG, 16-12 in Ovp vs. Astralis, 16-13 in Nuke vs. G2...do i smell value in Map handicap and total rounds over 26.5? hmm 🤔

right now OG are out cos they don't have enough dpc points to reach the top 12 dpc ranking, but, as @batang_bitcoin said above, they'll participate in the TI western EU qualifiers. They need to win that to qualify automatically to TI
I don't think that they need the DPC points to qualify for The International since they are already the champion of the previous TI so they are automatically qualified, if they weren't qualified, they would have taken the DPC season seriously.
They don't, because there's a reset during the pandemic and that's why there were majors and minors that were the tournaments needed to gain DPC points.
The rules have changed and they're not automatically qualified, check this link for which teams have already qualified the points of other teams needed to at least get a secured slot in this upcoming TI.
Qualified: https://liquipedia.net/dota2/The_International/2021
DPC points: https://liquipedia.net/dota2/Dota_Pro_Circuit/2021/Rankings
On the DPC points list, OG is #34 which is far from the qualifying DPC points needed for a secured slot.

The only way they can qualify right now to TI, is if they will be invited to participate in the event (special entry). It is not in the rule book or anything but they are hoping if that will happen as they are the reigning champions.



[VALORANT]

Sentinels are the winner for upper bracket in the VCT Masters Reykjavik. They are now waiting for their finals opponent coming from the lower bracket.

Right now, Team liquid and fanatic are fighting for a spot to face Nuturn Gaming. Both TL and FNC are from EU and Nuturn is from Kr.

Going for Team [email protected] as my pick of the day, I really like their odds since VP's form is slowly falling off losing against weaker teams while Team Spirit's is on the opposite side with a better form.

Also i'm surprised to see Akuma guarantee at least third place in the tournament, tempted to take their +1.5 handicap or maybe the first map round handicap.

Edit : Rip VP edging out Spirit once again.  Lips sealed

i also have FURIA moneyline at 2. This could be a close series, ovp or vertigo could go to Liquid, but FURIA have been crazy good on Inferno lately and imo they have the edge on mrg or nuke, either map could be the decider

I am so much hoping to see Furia play Liquid on Vertigo. Small map but it is really lovely to see how crazy art goes agressively there. Always enjoyed Furia playing on Vertigo. As for G2 vs NIP, feels like NIP win and close one to me but will be packed with crazy plays for sure.

as expected, Device and Rez with the carry against Heroic.

G2 - NIP will be another banger. Going with this as my main ticket today

i'll keep an eye out on the total rounds market. Their last match was one hell of a close series (16-12, 17-19, 16-14). It's very likely that we'll see the same maps today (d2, inf, mrg) so i see good value in the Over 25.5 and 26.5 rounds
I'm on that over pick as well since both of them seems to be on another level as they were able to take down Heroic in a 2-1 fashion.

Hopefully they take their map pick with ease and leaning on G2 to win the decider so they could book a rematch with mousesports.  Cheesy
Damn I am on over as well, never like it when we all pick the same market and outcome, those game tend to end in bookies favor more often than not. Hopefully this time it will be different.

Mousesports seems like a value pick with their current form but i'm sticking with my gut and back G2 @1.7 on this series.

Everytime I want to against them they always come out on top no matter what so i'll take them until they slowly lose their form.

I must admit that I am out of the loop with CS
well, just know that Heroic are the best team in circuit right now, they've lost like 2 matches in the last 20 or so, i don't remember the last time i saw Heroic with moneyline odds higher than 1.4  Lips sealed

and they're back to today against Device's team. NIP will probably pick Ovp, their best map, Heroic struggled quite a lot there against Astralis so NIP have a good chance of winning their map pick. Train could be a good pick too. If Heroic win Nuke as they usually do, then my Over maps at 2.1 is a winner. Rooting for NIP in this one, REZ and Device need to pop off or it's gonna be yet another quick 2-0 for the danes

am i delusional? no, i'm a believer  Wink lol
Saw the odds and had about the same reaction. Placed a small single on Astralis and big stake double where I have Astralis +1.5 @1.65. I must admit that I am out of the loop with CS but those odds seemed like such big value and I had few seconds to place the bet before match was starting so I just placed it without checking recent stats.
