anyone watching the Singapore Major right now? Thunder Predator looking pretty good, they turned things around and won game 1 against QC...2-0'd alliance and liquid, and they're about to 2-0 quincy crew

ok, south america dota, i see you  Shocked small stake on predator to take a map vs. Aster
I also got in on that TP train against Aster and I might take them tomorrow against Neon as well.  Cheesy

I'm going for Astralis -1.5 @1.85 later, must win game for Astralis to lock in that play in spot and with Fnatic looking abysmal yesterday against VP i'd take my chances on a 2-0.

Woahh... what a run from Thunder Predator today, a clean 8-0 and well deserved 1st position on the group stage. Unfortunately I bet on QC against the TP 2 maps because I thought QC had a pretty good draft and it turned out that TP outperformed them.

But It reminds me of what happened to Team Liquid in Wild Card Stage  Grin. They played really good on the first day (a clean 6-0) but then they lost almost all of the matches on the second day (can only win the tiebreaker).

But after all, tomorrow matches will be very very interesting to watch  Grin

Next Goes for today:
Astralis vs Fnatic O hard match for Fnatic think they will lost.
Evil Geniuses vs Endpoint my favortie Evil Geniuses they the better Team.
Team Liquid vs Virtus.Pro  Virtus will win Smiley

Placed 1 unit for each Astralis ML and EG ML, BOL !

CS GO: EG vs Liquid seems to have been a comfortable win for Liquid. The Fallen addition seems to have been working out great! Havent seen him perform so well since 2017-18. Unbelievable. On the other hand, what has happened to EG?. They have such a nice lineup with Superstars like Cerq, Tarik, Brehze, oBo and Stanislaw as their IGL. They are all individually all highly rated but still not really challenging the top teams. Very disappointing.
BIG vs Endpoint going on and BIG won the first map of Dust 2, 16-10 but Endpoint has turned it it around on Inferno T-side by taking 12 rounds out of 15. Potentially it looks like a 3 map series. Lets see how it goes.

There's no more hope for Nigma and T1 even if they win with their remaining games.
huh, for some reason i thought Nigma could win all their remaining games then wait for either VG or Monaco Gambit to lose all of their games to qualify to the next round...damn, so that's it for Nigma in the tourney, eh? bummer
Yes, they're the first to be eliminated and then T1, gambit is also out while PSG.LGD, Liquid and VG are all in for the group stage. Those were a quick wild card for this major. Usually wild cards are also taking time to get those spots for the next round but because of covid, they really have to make it quick. A few hours from now, we're already in the group stage, more interesting to watch.

Astralis and VP matches went as expected and with that Endpoint and Fnatic are out. Now it remains between Team Liquid and Evil Geniuses. I really want EG to win this one and I have believe in their potential in surprising Team Liquid today. It's gonna be tight match as a win will confirm the top 3 position for Team Liquid. So far Team Liquid are ahead in first map with 6-3 scoreline but EG can change that anytime... Go EG!! 💪💪

Endpoint putting up a fight in some of their games, its not enough for a win but they doing some work.   Best success recently has been vs FNatic I think, I dont think I can go with an underdog bet for them or even 3 maps on this one especially.

A 2:1 score with astralis winning would be 3.55x which is worth considering.   1.5 for a -1 Map Handicap Astralis win, I'll go with that most likely.

another crazy, intense and insanely good match between AST and VP that finished in the most unfashionable way? lol

Last table and what a great table it has turned out to be. Certainly as the commentators coined the Table D as group of death... Some were calling Astralis vs Team Liquid as El Classico of CS lol Cheesy Cheesy. Today Astralis were all guns out and even Xyp was showing some glimpse against VP. VP have 6 points so not much pressure and as for Astralis, the win against VP makes them the table leader for now.

but if that match was crazy, game 4 between G2 and S04 takes it to a whole new level...what seemed to be a walk in the park for G2 couldn't have ended in the worse way possible...4v5 and Schalke stole Baron!! few minutes later they stole the ocean drake and then everything spirals out of control for G2...lost my bet, but boy is this entertaining af 😂 though i hope G2 can win 🙏

Jame and Yekindar are the core of VP <...>
completely agree. It's like every round one of them pulls an insane flick or some godlike plays

betting wise, how did u guys do? it was a pretty good day for me, started with a win-lose-win-lose kind of loop until i said fck it and went with a live multi after Fnatic lost game 2 + Astralis Cool
Damn good. Here were my two bets from yesterday:

DOTA2: Finally nice to see some top teams/inter region fight against each other. Feel sad for Nigma who are win-less in 6 maps in a row. They are the "wildcard" and there was nothing wild about them.
There's no more hope for Nigma and T1 even if they win with their remaining games. While for PSG.LGD, they still have the chance to be included to the 3 teams that will get in for the group stages. Too sad watching these two teams that have replaced their off lane because of the covid-19. I think they'll perform better if MC and Kuku is with them instead of their replacement. Anyway, GGs to them. What I'm amaze to watch is with team Liquid and Gambit, they're showing how strong they are.

Damn, What a crazy match between Virtus Pro and EG I am witnessing.
just insane!
for those who missed it, this clip from Jame in map 1 pretty much tells you how crazy this match was https://youtu.be/D81LB2FDEg4
and then Dev1ce against Liquid!!! solo carrying his entire team with some of the best CS i've seen from him in a long time...i picked a good day to watch CSGO (:


Jame and Yekindar are the core of VP. They are the one who are usually giving the team first kill and give their team advantage. That Ace from Jame was sick but TBH there were lot of ACE moments in that game. Check out the Cerq kill on the OT 3rd map (I guess it was the round that put EG score to 17), that guy denied the bomb defuse with AWP shot through smoke. There were lot of CT under that smoke and he hit the right one..damn...

I didn't watched Astralis vs EG completely but the scoreline made me watch EG's game against VP and boy it turned out to be so great decision. EG are ranked in double digits but they are playing like a team in top 5-6 IMO. (judging on the base of VP and Astralis game)


betting wise, how did u guys do? it was a pretty good day for me, started with a win-lose-win-lose kind of loop until i said fck it and went with a live multi after Fnatic lost game 2 + Astralis Cool

then my argentinian football + Vici Gaming to win tickets hit and i'll start the weekend with some profits 👍 gonna put these mbtc today on G2 -2.5 and Astralis ML

LOL yeah, and moral of the story today is: do not bet on teams that are missing players from the main lineup  Cheesy
btw, w33 is so bad, wtf 😂 Nigma looked really off today

The One Esports Singapore Major is about to come. But there were a lot of substitutes for some teams because some of their players got tested positive for covid-19. They're at least 5 players got tested positive and won't be able to attend but were replaced.
https://liquipedia.net/dota2/ONE_Esports/Singapore_Major/2021
yooo, this is key info! 👍 i was ready to start throwing mbtc to teams i didn't know were going to have stand-ins. Kinda sucks that mind_control won't be part of Nigma. And Navi will miss two players, devastating blow.
2 more days!
Actually there's another update about NaVi, they're no longer going to play and also beastcoast. This virus has really made a lot of unexpected things and even this awaited first LAN during the pandemic has broken our expectation.
Kuku won't be able to play and other players too, that's just sad but still the action goes on March 27.
Its not just NaVi that was really affected. Most teams from NA really garnered problems because some of their players got the Virus and most teams are already looking for Stand Ins which really sucks since everybody was expecting every team to be ready with their original lineup.

It also sucks for players within the SEA region because they are already within SEA but contracting the virus is really something that they focused on and not force them to be healthy immediately. Everybody's health is the priority of Valve and I would hope that they will do something about it.
Yeah, I see YawaR's team still in need of one player. Who knows if Ramzes will be adopted by them if they still don't have a player for their last position or it could be sumail but I don't think he'll play pos 4.
Since Ramzes is already on Singapore after the announcement of the management that they'll no longer participate, I think that's a good choice for Yawar's team.

Damn, What a crazy match between Virtus Pro and EG I am witnessing. Haven't seen such match for a long time. VP got the first map but EG were on top in 2nd [won my bet] and in 3rd map I had bet on overtime-Yes and my hopes were all down after VP went on strong with 8 stratight rounds win on Map 3 but after 14-4 scoreline EG made a crazy comeback to come down to 14-15 and last round VP somehow hold EG down and 15-15 Boom!! Its OT !!!!!

All loss  from yesterday betting on Astralis and O2.5 map on Fnatic vs TL recovered... Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy
