talking about G2 org: kennyS benched!! https://twitter.com/G2esports/status/1367555355568439299
JackZ is back and NiKo new awper now...interesting

That's really shocking. kennyS is legend but right now he is struggling and has been for sometime now. I had the feeling that kennyS might get benched soon due to health issues or break when Niko move was made but they both remained in the roster. Still letting him find a new home is something that came down as shocking.

Well org has to find the best inside the team and there is nothing could be done. I still think they are letting a legend go even tho he is not performing right now.

Edit : That was something else from Gen G.
T1 and now Gen.G...bookmakers are making bank. Good thing i took a break from the LCK  Tongue but it looks like we're gonna have an epic battle for 2nd place with Hanhwa and DRX just one win away from Gen.G in the Standings

i'm looking forward to the LEC today, got a ticket with G2 to win vs. Rogue at 1.67...two best teams in the league, both with a 11-2 record, gonna be a good game! #Caps💪🙏

Just some Dota 2 news and change of roster. What can you say about T1's action towards removing Jackky and replacing him with 23savage? Well, savage is a good carry and there's no doubt about that. But the thing is that, Jackky was with them through the DPC season until they've managed to get a wildcard on the Singapore Major. It is what I see with the other fans disappointment through social media.
Don't know about fans disappointment but I watched a couple of games with 23savage in the roster and I must admit he fitted right in. They looked very good and he played his role well. I have a feeling he is maybe a bit more stable player than Jackky but I admit my assumptions are based on quite small number of games so we will see.
It's about that Jackky was the one who played with them and when they've became qualified but only for the wildcard, it should be him that must play for the team yet he was replaced by 23savage. No doubt about 23savage being a good player, he's experienced and he should be in Vici Gaming but because of the pandemic he wasn't able to fly to China.

It sucks for Jackky since it was out of his control but it's hard to give a stance on their decision since we don't know the environment of the team throughout the season. I saw some of the comments on the post and the fans were putting the blame on Kuku since he had an abysmal performance.
Yeah, about Kuku's performance. He's the one that did a poor performance but he's more experienced than Jackky in bigger tournaments and that's helping the team despite of that. Well, that's an organization decision, I just wish that Jackky will find a new team that will fit his style of playing.

Anybody knows what is going on with OG? I used to be a big fan of their Dota 2 team and won quite a few bets with them. But after Jerax retired and Ceb switching between playing and big playing around, it feels like they are not the same anymore. I am kind of afraid to bet on them now because I tend to lose money. Is it maybe because they won so much money already that they are just not so motivated anymore? Or are they just trying to find the new meta again?

Good thing I skipped on LCK yesterday T1 looked so lost during their series against Fredit Brion. Switching to LCK for today since I don't trust JDG and bookies heavily favor Suning I think it's a trap. I got HLE + Gen G multi @1.47 the odds aren't great but i'm confident on this one since they're taking on teams in the bottom of the standings.
Also have HLE to win on serious ticket and HLE to win 2:0 on small stake one + Victory 5 to take at least one map @1.8. As you said I don't know why Sunning is such a big favorite, they have exactly the same win ratio 5:5. I am sure I am missing something but those odds on one map for Victory Five look like a free money.

What is happening with DOTA games on Sportsbet? Elephant game is greyed out (not available for betting) for whole morning and other games come into the offer very late.
I was about to place a bet on this game yesterday but yeah they had it suspended for quite a while so I switched to LPL.

Even though LCK is back i'll continue with LPL and go with RNG [email protected] for today. They face LNG that's sitting in the middle of the standings they're a decent team, good enough to take down weaker teams but struggle against the top teams. All of their four losses have been a clean sweep and I expect RNG to do the same.

DOTA 2:

The upcoming Singapore Major already caused some things to break up even though its only the first DPC Season. Its really sad to see some teams break up even though it was expected. From North America: we have already see Peter Dager posting that he is not part of the team anymore and DNM posted that he is also currently looking for a team even though there are still no proper announcement that the team has broken up. From SEA: TNC released their two non-Filipino players which is sad because of the camaraderie that they have spent but internet connections are not really great within SEA.

Both teams did not qualify for the major and maybe they thought its time to rebuild.

a bit of sad news for those who follow Broodwar  Sad the ASL will no longer be supported in English

I started watching competitive brood war last year with the ASL Season 10 thx to @tokeweed's posts, and i actually enjoyed watching it, so i was looking forward to Season 11 and the friendly banter plus good commentary from the two casters Tasteless and Artosis, but, now what? watching it in korean AND in some crappy ass platform like Afreeca freaking sucks :/

The other series is just too unpredictable with how the odds are so one sided for RA (@1.13) the handicap is tempting but in their last two series they've dropped maps against teams that are sitting on the bottom of the standings.
this is when having a bookie offering other markets like Total Kills, Total Towers destroyed or Total Drakes comes in handy  Wink

That is why I took handicap but against Rare Atom @2.3. That seems like a big value bet to me since eStar is bad but hopefully they are good enough to take one map here. I also feel like that break from the games sort of shuffled the cards a little.

Feels great to break my losing streak yesterday thanks to Suning and Sofm.

Today I got WE -1.5 vs LGD @1.4 not much to say about this one since the record of both teams likely shows the outcome of this series and for me WE is a level above LGD.

Yeah that performance from JDG was like their all time low both games weren't even close as they all lost the laning phase.

The games today is so risky but i'm slightly confident Suning getting the 2-0 on TT since they beat IG last week. They're in the same situation as IG in terms of consistency but their opponent seems a bit weaker if we look at the teams they've beaten.

what do you guys think? Ez for who? I think either Mouse or NiP will make it very far in this tourney, i'm talking maybe the semifinals. MIBR could also be the dark horse
The teams that I could see advancing on the playoffs are

Group A : Heroic, BIG and FPX
Group B : Vitality, NiP and Faze
Group C : NaVi, Gambit and Furia
Group D : VP, Liquid and Astralis

Also the quick roster changes these past few days between OG, FPX and Heroic is so surprising to see.

Sunny taking ChrisJ's position on FPX
Niko leaving Heroic and joining OG
Heroic signing two new players

I've updated the calendar in the OP!

btw, ESL Pro League Season 13 groups have been released https://twitter.com/ESLCS/status/1366402993051025408

Anyway I already took JDG @1.87 boosted to 1.93, it's really hard to skip on those odds even though JDG dropped a map against TT on their last series they still kept that map very close.
well, that was a devastating blow! that 2nd game was painful to watch, while watching the stream i actually said out loud "wtf is this??!" lol i don't remember seeing JDG getting stomped like that Undecided Beichuan is one a hell of an improvement over Tian. And here i thought FPX were going to start going down the league table withot BO

Where do you guys read such news about eSports?
for LoL news, reddit (and sometimes twitter) is the place to go because of how fast they translate the articles

For me it's the opposite, soccer gave signs of life on my bankroll with a couple of wins while esports not so much.  Tongue

bookies don't seem to care that FPX will be playing with a new sub that's coming from their academy (because the main sub for BO, Tian, just sucks) and they have Funplux ML at around 2.00 odds...surely the JDG odds will get slashed, they should be the heavy favorites here...right?
They're still not convinced on FPX's last two losses since it's all against good teams, maybe this series will be the decider.

Where do you guys read such news about eSports? Maybe better that I did not read this piece of news before though. This way I had a very small bet on JDG to win, and a bit larger bet on JDG to win at least a map. If I knew about that sub I would be in for high stake and lost much more  Shocked

Of course they lost 2:0 and screwed all our tickets. I watched first map and they were simply out drafted in that one and never had chance to do anything.
