Does anyone expect an ez 2-0 between Nature and Faze?

I don't expect to be an easy out for either team, and i'm not sure why i didn't choose to go with O2.5, instead i have FaZe +1.5 and Nigma ML @ around @2.11

NaVi played really well yesterday at Mirage, now we have Mirage to be FaZe's pick, if they replicate what they did against MAD, it could actually finish 2-0....hopefully not  Grin

I have over 2.5 as well. It looks like your choice is a better one as it stands now. Faze took Mirage and now they are giving hell to NaVi on Dust 2. I will follow the herd today and pick Nigma ML as well. Will probably skip Secret and OG. There is some nice football games tonight so after long time I will have more football than Esports on my ticket.

EDIT: Alliance were obliterated by Team Liquid Cry
My Dota picks have been so shit lately, underdogs are tearing my betslips apart...

But things my change for me today. I have a parlay in Dota and I'm counting on Nigma not to not f*ck things up:

Dota
Fnatic -2.5 & Nigma ML - acca @2.67
CSGO
MIBR ML @1.56
Na'Vi - FaZe O2.5 @1.91
Spirit ML @2.08

Does anyone expect an ez 2-0 between Nature and Faze?

FaZe vs NiP traded wins in picked maps, at least I can watch the third map with no stress and pressure.

It's been a great day for me 3 of 3 so far, looking forward to see Alliance ML be the icing on the cake.

It's terrible to see you'all on the other side of the sword, tbh but it is what it is... Since there's more of a consensus on Alliance ML, I hope we don't get no dramas 😎

What is a one-man team? Well, go here, read the headline, and then see this:


 Roll Eyes

Next up: FaZe - NiP...i have a feeling this is going to be an intense match. Bymas needs to show up today after that clown performance versus BiG.

@Trofo  i'm also [kinda ]on a losing streak, need me some wins today. Best of luck, everyone.

It sucks that I couldn't lock in my dota picks, stake wasn't offering any dota lines for the blast bounty hunt and was lucky to miss the first series as well due to the lack of live lines.
They sometimes miss some markets for Dota/CSGO or sometimes they miss all the fixtures of the day...weird.

I'm just going to stick with CS for now and take over 2.5 on the next series both teams should win their map picks unless NiP pops off unexpectedly.

I really hope this CS match goes over as well. I am loosing so much bets at the moment so need a break of the loosing tickets Smiley

Don't know what was the deal with DOTA games today. Sportsbet had them in the offer from early morning and Stake didn't. As far as i know they use same odds provider so they should have same games with similar odds. My local fiat bookie also added them just half an hour before first match started.

It's Mirage for first map, and 3 Nuke for a potential 3rd map, Do you think this It's worth a punt for Mad Lions ML ?

I switched my pick from +1.5 to MAD ml because of the maps selection.

MAD Lions are being destroyed right now, guess my little 4 game winning streak is over. I'm glad that you didn't take the Over or the ML.

Bad start of the day...


That was a very quick 2nd half in the 2 map, Lol. Mad Lions seemed to be putting up a serious fight in the first half, but didn't win a single round in the 2nd Half.

First one is good for me, Too bad to see your streak end, what else have you got for today ?

My early pick for tomorrow is MAD Lions +1.5 @1.40 (maybe a live bet on MAD to win on Mirage or Nuke if one of those two maps gets picked).

According to HLTV, It's Mirage for first map, and 3 Nuke for a potential 3rd map, Do you think with this It's worth a punt for Mad Lions ML ? The bet line is currently suspended on my sportbook, but I'll be going with Over 2.5 or Mad Lions to win first map (whichever has the best odds value) It's 6 - 0 even before I submit this reply  Shocked Shocked I just dodged a bullet! This is defo gonna be a 2-0 win for Na'Vi with Overpass for map 2

Elsewhere; FaZe vs NiP is Over 2.5 for me.

Dota 2;

Nigma -1.5

Alliance ML (I'm tempted with -1.5 here and might use that for a small double + Mad Lions ML)

Nigma vs NIP : Nigma ML

Any thoughts?
I'll choose Team Nigma too, they're starting to be consistent again. But I will not ignore how good the new roster of NiP. Well, tomahawk got the opposite choice, so good luck to both of you.  Smiley

Dota
NiP +1.5 @1.70

Come on, gents, post them picks:

Dota
Alliance ML @1.66
NiP +1.5 @1.70
CSGO
Na'Vi - NiP O2.5 @2.07
Furia ML @1.66

and my main bet, 3 units

FaZe...please   Cool

BiG also with a chance to make the final, that's gonna be a nice little rematch if they can make it out of the lower bracket.
I feel like most of the teams in the lower bracket have a good chance of winning vs. BiG, except for FaZe.

Does anyone make a bet on BTS Pro Series S2: SEA too? It's really difficult to predict BO2 series and there are too many draw matches  Grin.
I saw this while scrolling through the upcoming matches last night and as soon as I saw "Draw" I just kept scrolling =P draws? No thanks  Cheesy gonna wait until the playoffs start next week.

I'm thinking of taking Mad Lions as well but only the first map since Navi is at the top of the rankings they'll probably get the first pick.

I went with a bit more riskier over 2.5 but with much better odds since I don't thing Mad Lions can 2:0 NaVi.
I have also went with over 2.5 on Faze - NiP match.

I am thinking about Aliance ML, I am attributing their loss yesterday to OG tactics/drafts and expecting them to return to winning ways soon.

Yesterday was a total bloodbath for me and I lost most of the money I made in previous days. Hopefully, today will be a better day. I plan to play fewer games but for higher stakes.

My Dota 2 picks for tomorrow :

GeekFam vs Neon : 2-0 for GeekFam
EXTR vs Team Unique : Team Unique ML
Nigma vs NIP : Nigma ML

Any thoughts?
I also like Team Nigma to win but the odds are somewhat low though I might have to parlay it with another match to push it close to even odds. The handicap is just too risky right now since most of their series always goes to a third game.

BiG Over 2.5 maps
Big over 2.5 and BIG +1,5
So the consensus is G2 vs. BiG  O 2.5?

Very well done boys, we got it!
I was worried the Over might be in danger since G2 won the first map which was BiG's pick, but then BiG came strong to win on G2's map, a weird exchange i have to admit.

But yeah, BiG fans are getting cocky rn, time for a reality check =P

G2 is the first finalist and imo a favorite to win the tournament now, they will automatically get one map advantage in the final which is BO5.
BiG also with a chance to make the final, that's gonna be a nice little rematch if they can make it out of the lower bracket.

Lucky I split my bet on the nip vs vitality game.   I didnt win but covering the 3 maps at nicer odds means it gave back my bet lost on a vitality win.   I thought it'd be a bit closer for some reason, but perhaps that means I should have just gone with the underdog in that case as Nip are always capable imo.

Quote
Zywoo played so good but all went in vain while Nip are so good as a team.

Teamwork should always win in csgo if its being played out right, its been the bane of many a great set of players that were not as much of a team as the other side with more experience and time played together.  I think its the secret behind lions success really.

And you might be right, Nigma could win a game, but Team Secret have been SO good lately, i couldn't ignore those odds.
Here we go! Wtf was that from Team Secret in the 2nd map, LOL... I saw this coming, damn!  Angry

Veryy nice, thanks Nigmaa  Smiley Smiley.

Nigma had a very good draft against Team Secret in the second game. That Viper counter that spectre so hard and then there is no answer for that luna late-game anymore.

Plus OG took 1 map against Alliance with a comeback. What a good day  Grin Grin

ZyGOD  Tongue gonna see if I can find the clip of that

You will find Zywoo's ace under highlights section in here: https://www.hltv.org/matches/2341574/vitality-vs-nip-dreamhack-masters-spring-2020-europe. Click that play and you can see the Zywoo godlike play.

I backed up Nip when they were 5-6 down against VItality in Map 3 in my multi and now just waiting for Slazburg to win. Easy double  Cheesy  Cool

NiP fans right now when their team starts to find their form AND they eliminate Vitality:

GG, bro

BTW did anybody saw Zywoo ace vs 5 and all headshots in pistol round -USPS.  Roll Eyes Man that guy is something. I wonder where Vitality would be without him.
