Damn didn't see this coming. Navi fans will be so much furious but well Navi brought this upon themselves. They weren't able to play good CS when things mattered.

lmao 😂😂🤣🤣🤣😭🤣

anyhow, i don't see any value in these games except maybe for Total Maps...MIBR takes D2, C9 takes Overpass, and then inferno or vertigo as the decider? worth a fiver

Moving on, i'll be going with EDG @1.58 vs WE <...>

absolute stomp from EDG
I think they locked top 2, but i'm not sure what happens if RNG loses next weekend and EDG wins, i suppose EDG jump to 1st place in the standings? or maybe they'll take H2H into account which favors RNG in case of a tie in first place

BLG really tried to draft like they're RNG and they got punished so hard for it, Suning looked clean with only Sofm dying throughout the series.

Moving on, i'll be going with EDG @1.58 vs WE whoever wins here is one step closer in getting the top seed since they're the only two that are tied at 11-3. My reasoning on taking EDG here is that they're much stable compared to WE who dropped maps against easier teams and EDG's only bad loss is against IG.

And some cs picks for later, I got Gambit @1.39 and [email protected] not too confident on the handicaps since both of them always drop a map.

I actually had a bet on over 2.5 maps for Furia game and then they manage to loose 2:0.

After the first map, that game was all screaming going over 2.5 maps but Furia did a flop show in 2nd. Cloud9 barely gave them any breath in the 2nd map. That was really horrible play from Furia. The worst I have ever seen from Furia.

Quote from: tomahawk9 on March 23, 2021, 08:36:53 AM

btw, some ppl are saying Furia wanted to throw the match so that Navi's chances of qualifying to playoffs would get even smaller. Gambit and Furia qualified to the next round, so it's all about the 3rd place. Should all the top teams win tomorrow, standings will remain the same as the table below:

Yeah that could be one possibility given how Navi could be a threat for others in next stage as compared to Cloud9. Damn didn't see this coming. Navi fans will be so much furious but well Navi brought this upon themselves. They weren't able to play good CS when things mattered.

Yesterday I thought Furia will win for sure against Cloud 9 but it was all a flop show. Cloud 9 totally got them in both maps. They barely gave Furia any moment to find some quick rounds and get a momentum going. That loss has now left them 3 points behind from Gambit who are leading the table.

that game was such a hilarious shitshow 😭 although, that one dude from MIBR who tried to knife s1mple takes the prize for dumbest play of the week lol now that was funny af

That is the beauty of most Esports tournament, you will never know until the last match who is going to win so you are glued to your seat to witness everything that is going to happen that will eventually lead final results. Also, Cloud 9 is a stronger team and more experienced than Furia when it comes to tournaments and the tactics so there really is a chance that they are going to do a comeback.

I am totally out of CS betting at the moment, results are beyond crazy don't know how you guys manage to hit anything. I actually had a bet on over 2.5 maps for Furia game and then they manage to loose 2:0. Same goes for LoL, only DOTA still viable for my bets and now there is no big DOTA tournaments. Also national break in football so this will be a tough week for me, thankfully there is a nice tennis tournament taking place in Miami.

Fallen fell from grace, he lives on as a mercenary for Liquid where he might yet shine but to me his greatest use now would be as a force multiplier as a veteran especially I'd like to see him cement a teams chances in a major but we have no major quite sad. Back in the day he was a triple threat; major awp player, IGL and just unifier of force in the team. They were great for sure, long time ago.
This mibr is Brazilian again, alot of talent in this region so even this now as a 'B' team is enough to trouble anyone at all.

Okay, really a shame to see more and more pros from the old days saying goodbye.
Especially with the players who have accompanied you in the youth at 1.6.
But unfortunately it's normal that at some point you are simply replaced by the new generations. Cheesy

Good thing there's LPL during this time, I got BLG +1.5 @1.88 vs Suning. With the last playoff spot still up for grabs between BLG and LNG, I think BLG could at least take a map from Suning, even though most of Suning's series mostly ends up going under(13/14) this one might go the distance now that there's less pressure for them to win as they already secured their spot in the playoffs.

I'm still at a loss for words on that Furia loss and a bit surprised that Navi is likely to get eliminated if a three way tiebreaker happens.

On Group A its BIG that failed to make it then on Group B there's Vitality now Navi's next. lol

Amazing game in Mibr vs Navi right now, I recommend that one because its a real OT split between them and navi should win but cant quite do it. s1mple clutching vs multiple enemies with just an awp as he often does.
I put this down as a 2 map series for a bet because the odds favour it as 3 maps when in normal times Navi should be bulldozing most teams including this one. Its a credit to mibr I guess they are clinging on, point is normally it wouldn't be enough. Navi just took first map which was mibr pick and dust2 second which again should be with Navi being far more capable individually and on this map thats enough. Close always but no cigar

But what has become of the old legendary MIBR? Are there now several such successful Brazilian teams?

I haven't followed esports in csgo for a long time and I was just really surprised about the betting odds of NaVi vs MIBR.
When I looked at the lineup of the teams then I knew why, with NaVi of course for me still known names.
But what has become of the old legendary MIBR? Are there now several such successful Brazilian teams?

Might get more active here again, but I still miss the good old CSGOLOUNGE times! Cheesy

You won @ralle14. NaVi were so off today with decisions. Well actually they usually are sometimes but today they were so off. They could have lost 2-0 after giving off a 4-5 round lead in Dust 2 to allow Gambit to push the map to OT. Gambit now tops the table with 3 wins but Furia also could be on top of the table if they win against another Brazilian team - Mibr which I think they will.

Yeah Gambit pick hits but the parlay lost thanks to T1 and Team Spirit. Tongue

During the first half of map 2 it nearly looked like Navi was about to pull away with a double digit lead but Gambit bounced back at the last few rounds and secure those crucial T rounds.

Later today i'm taking Furia @1.5 vs C9, that should be an easier match for them and a much needed one as well since Gambit will most likely go 4-0.

Edit : What an absolute stomp from C9 on both maps and at the same time bad performance on the side of Furia. Time to avoid these guys once again.

VCT or Valorant Champion Tour: Master 1 is currently happening right now, there are many regions that's having this tournament.
There are 3 VCT Master Stage before the Valorant Champions, check the tour structure here: https://playvalorant.com/en-us/news/esports/announcing-the-2021-valorant-champions-tour/

later at 8pm (forum time), SEN vs FaZe Clan will face in the finals of VCT Masters 1 in NA. Gonna bet on SEN as we know they're very competitive and TenZ of C9 signed up as a player for SEN, it's an OP team tho.

SEN already defeated FaZe, they just win in the lower bracket that's why they'll be in the finals.

you can check the results of other VCT in different regions: https://liquipedia.net/valorant/VALORANT_Champions_Tour/2021

I got another nice parlay ready for later, what do you guys think ? Is it good enough or will Gambit disappoint. Grin

Gambit is a nice pick and they have shocked NaVi in Katowice but NaVi knows what mistakes they did then and they weren't really happy about it. This match sure serves as a rematch and things won't go down easy. NaVi after falling against Furia will try to change things from here on. Every match is now kinda crucial for them if they need to progress. I might go for O2.5 maps on this one.

BTW Mibr vs Team One went on as expected- O2.5 but have to agree that the map on which Team One won , it was quite close. Mibr almost made a comeback but Team One won some rounds in later stages and won the map.

I knew that second map would end up way too close after FURIA got five rounds during the first half of T side since that's been the story in the other groups as well.

My main pick for today is T1 -1.5 vs Afreeca, another must win series for T1 so they could get a better seeding for playoffs and with their previous 2 wins I doubt they'll drop a map unless they change their starting roster.

Navi haven't been their best and they have tendency to fall out in middle or give the momentum too easily. And we know FURIA and how well they are with aggression. It would be a very tough contest but I think I am gonna go with FURIA on this one.

I was going to place some bets and back FURIA, but then i checked the head-to-head with Navi and i said "nope"...2-0 for Navi in the last three series against the brazilians, not good enough...i'll just keep an eye on the live markets.
MIBR - Team One later today, good game for brazilian fans, quite the borefest for me 😂 quick 2-0 for mibr

These matches are close and better stay away from them rather than betting on them but still FURIA are playing great. 1 map up already but they are down on second map. They have the advantage still so they have quite a time to think about this and make it in third map.

Mibr-Team One I know Mibr are a good team but still there is a part of which says Team One are gonna take at least one map. Mibr is also not the team to give in too easily so I probably might go for O2.5 (not with a big stake tho).

Gambit Esports vs Cloud9 should be an esay match for Gambit
Natus Vincere vs FURIA esports im think Natus will win they play very good the last matches
MIBR vs Team One here its hard to say butt im think MIBR win.

As for Mibr vs Team One, both are new teams to me as I haven't seen much of them. It would be a tough contest for sure and since it is hard to pick a winner , I might go for O2.5 on this one.

Somehow, I always feel like some E-sports website is being too biased to NaVi because you are right that they really are not this month and some teams deserve some recognition to take their Number 1 spot on some rankings. Simple and electronic are still two good players with great back up and I just want to see them play more to prove that they are still number 1.
