Astralis further extended my losing streak (5L in a row)

Quote from: tomahawk9 on August 29, 2020, 07:19:14 AM

my 1st ticket: G2 - Heroic O2.5 map

Congrats! Streak officially over, G2 and Heroic with one hell of a match, too bad i couldn't watch it, with multiple OTs on vertigo and one on nuke. Heroic got their little revenge on G2 though, i'm glad to see the Danes make the grand final. They as a team don't have that many prestigious rankings, a bunch of 3rd places according to hltv.

Three-game win streak come to an end for NiP, but great tournament overall. Vitality are just the better team imo, final round with a bunch of glocks to secure the win, class!

Quote from: morvillz7z on August 28, 2020, 04:46:14 PM

My early bet for tomorrow's ESL semis: Heroic/G2 O2.5 + Vitality ML total odds 3.16

Sorry bookies, not today! Grin

Any early thoughts on the match tomorrow, perhaps O3.5 since it's bo5?

Do you think NiP can pull another upset in tomorrow's semi-final? I'm not sure how many points are given for 1st place (should be plenty), i'm low key rooting for Vitality to win the tournament and overtake BiG in the overall rankings as #1.

NIP have the ability to do it. They have really good team play and coordination among themselves. Vitality seems kinda okish right now but NIP have certainly improved their plays. They are analysing their opponents and they know what kind of strategy opponent gonna put at what point so unless Vitality have something new strategy or a change in roles to surprise them I think match is gonna be really nail biting one.

Speaking of nail-bitinh match , right now who is watching Heroic vs G2 ? This is also going great so far. 1st match has gone into extra rounds and it's 24-23 with Heroic leading. Epic semifinals...guess I have to take my popcorn out that I saved for Vitality vs Nip already now. Cheesy

I'm starting to believe in NiP's momentum since every time I go against them they always show up. I want to take Vitality in this series as well but after getting destroyed by NiP three in a row i'll probably just watch mid game and place a live bet.

and helluva match in the LEC playoffs: Fnatic - G2...G2 -1.5 at 1.71 odds is good value...though i might try some live bets here, been improving my LoL live betting skills lately, specifically in total kills (:

Also going for G2's handicap later I think the series could end 3-0 for G2 or 3-1 at the very least.

I lost over 20 quid on astralis, Lucky I got a hedge on Nip Results, still landed a tenner.

Astralis further extended my losing streak (5L in a row: 1 in Dota, 1 in the LPL final, 2 thx to Complexity the other day, and now Astralis getting rekt 😔)

but no time to cry, we have some games today...my 1st ticket: G2 - Heroic O2.5 maps https://i.ibb.co/JpMh3rp/gibmeawin.png big question is: will G2 ban Nuke? it's the only map they've lost to Heroic in the last few months, i have a feeling they won't, but if they ban it, Mirage could be Heroic's pick which isn't a good map for the french...either way, i think we'll see the same old story between these teams, 3 maps

and helluva match in the LEC playoffs: Fnatic - G2...G2 -1.5 at 1.71 odds is good value...though i might try some live bets here, been improving my LoL live betting skills lately, specifically in total kills (: edit* (the tournament of surprises, at least i won my ticket!)

And for the second series we've got Astralis that's slowly going back to their old ways while NiP capitalized on their opponents having a bad day.

now I still need Astralis and some football to come trough.

Im down to needing Astralis to win for good money.

FUCK

I think anyone with cs:go tickets today have added Astralis' ML, including me, i went as far as taking Astralis -1.5 in separate bet. Seriously i did not see that coming. At least Avirunes got something off that match backing NiP 1.5

Do you think NiP can pull another upset in tomorrow's semi-final? I'm not sure how many points are given for 1st place (should be plenty), i'm low key rooting for Vitality to win the tournament and overtake BiG in the overall rankings as #1.

So next up tomorrow we have semifinals ESL Cologne Cool

: Heroic vs G2 and NIP vs Vitality. NIP vs Vitality is so fun to watch. Vitality have better rank right now but IMO they both are equal on play level. I feel like that match is gonna go over 2.5 maps.

I managed a bit of a hedge on the NiP outcomes as I have about 20 on if they lose.

What a comeback from G2. They were 15:10 down on decider and managed to get to the overtime. Then in the overtime they were 3:0 up and almost squandered that lead. They managed to convert last match point with only one player staying alive and that player had 2 health. It doesn't get much closer than that

Had them on my multi, now I still need Astralis and some football to come trough.

I actually had lost my hope when it went 13-9 and I stopped looking at it. I haven't seen a comeback from G2 much but that was really good play. Will check highlights of the match to see what went off surprising in ending rounds.

Nip up by 1 map and I won my pick. Yay!!

Astralis are yet to play their pick. They are usually good in train but that was when Xyp9x and gla1ve were also there in team. Love the way es3tag played in 1st map though.

Doing the same thing as last time and parlay the favorites once more. I really like both favorites to win but I feel like G2's series could go to all three maps since you don't know if OG would show up or not. And for the second series we've got Astralis that's slowly going back to their old ways while NiP capitalized on their opponents having a bad day.

OG is fairly a new team but I guess their adjustments are pretty good even though they have not made their name known for playing CS:GO. On the other hand, G2's games are always entertaining to watch and bet on since any team can be the underdog while having the matches. Though I can still say Evil Geniuses is being consistent on how they approach the game and its nice seeing Astralis come back up from some slump. It would be nice to see more matches to bet on that revolves around most top teams and not just teams available within their own regions.

Yeah OG is a new and young team with much potential for the Future.
Now Live Astralis VS Ninjas in Pyjamas take a look great match, Astralis have not so an good start ninjas in leadership.
Is a very tight match, they given noone everything Grin

, hopefull Astralis win Cheesy

OG vs G2 is ongoing and match is going on tense. Feels like G2 is gonna lose this out as the are down by 3 rounds right now in map -dust2. OG are playing bold today and is likely will be the one to advance as it seems right now.

What a comeback from G2. They were 15:10 down on decider and managed to get to the overtime. Then in the overtime they were 3:0 up and almost squandered that lead.

Also for next playoff match between Astralis and NIP, put my little money on Nip+1.5 map. Astralis are doing great with new additions but Nip are not a bad team either. They have better team play as I feel and I kinda bit of support them as well. Tongue

Go Nip

The first map was a back and forth I thought Faze was going to close it out when they crushed Vitality in the 29th round to secure 15-14 but Vitality pushed it to overtime then everything went to Vitality's favor to secure their pick.

I feel like Faze should have done better. Lot of mistakes and so, seemed like proper communication and coordination was missing in Faze. Vitality are a good team and they might be enjoying 2 nd rank right now but Faze is not a bad team either. They should have picked a map at least.

Anyway that game is gone now and today we already have some teams advancing towards semifinals - Heroic and Vitality both swiping their respective opponents. Vitality was kinda expected but Heroic did a good job sweeping Complexity. Tomorrow we have Astralia vs Nip and OG vs G2 Grin
