What do you guys think about the lower bracket final(OG vs Team Liquid) later today ? Team Liquid once again gaining momentum whenever they're in the lower bracket.

This is also a 50-50 match, so I really prefer to do a live betting and wait for their draft first. Based on their previous face to face match, OG mostly lost to Liquid but in this tournament OG only had 1 loss, which was from their match against Team Secret yesterday.

By the way, does anyone know which site on OP list that covers/provides SEA Dota Invitational 2020?

Who's watching the game of OG and Secret? OG was devastated by Secret on game 1 within 25 mins with a score of 34-5. Honestly, I thought that this game is going to be close and I didn't see that coming.
GGWP Team Secret and that's truly a GGWP EZ game.

I watched both maps from start to finish and it felt like the maps were quickly determined from the drafting phase. The single carry Alchemist was too greedy imo and they got punished hard after losing the laning phase and OG's mid laner couldn't make enough space after it got counter picked by QOP. On the second map I was expecting OG to make it different but their draft lacked disables and the sustain or debuff from their supports weren't enough because of the annoying disables (stuns,fear,slow) from Secret's lineup.

After their last two meetings online I thought OG would win but Secret came prepared. I got their -1.5 map handicap for a nice 2.10 odds.

@batang_bitcoin I'm watching it. Map 2 about to start. OG comeback incoming Grin

A correct 2 - 1 win for Mad Lions @ 3.30 is all I've got today.

I'm more invested in football Cheesy

Close match. Map 3 and it's 11-13 Mad Lions.

What a joke!!! Shocked

Mad Lions lost round 13-16, That's straight 5 round lost, sigh, they indeed are Lions, Mad ones to be precise! Angry

WP is an abbreviation of Well Played. So GGWP = Good Game Well Played and actually some people are still using chat wheel with that word in Dota 2. But I think people are more familiar with GG EZ nowadays Grin

There are 2 types of men using GG chat weels.

#1 To giving some celebration about the game have some good gameplay and congratulation both of them because the game was fun.

#2 To send some message for some player "what's the fak are you doing with that builds and shit skill, end game faster please" and make other people raging with that's chat weels after the enemy died.

GGEZ STILL THE BEST EVER.

The match of VP and Liquid.
VP, they're struggling on game 1. Team Liquid is dominating the game as I watch them.

This is to tilt the losing team or if somebody you've played in the rank or normal game is a keyboard warrior from the start of the game and you're pissed until you win the game. I used to see this chat with my opponents and team mates on the pub even though the game took 50 mins or more. Roll Eyes

If things go south again, at least we have some Bundesliga/2 matches later on and we can fix things. Grin

lol totally. Thank god we have at least the Bundesliga Cheesy

Interesting choice going with Chaos like that, literally a shot in the dark but on an tried and tested IGL ? I like the idea anyway and I like Steel just keeps on going not giving up; Ive not watched them recently so will hope to catch that game.

me backing Chaos, ngl i'm in the dark here, i'm used to following top teams, but that win vs Liquid the other day wasn't a fluke, they played pretty well. I think it's gonna be a close game today =)

Complexity are surprisingly strong, Rush is one of the best NA players I already knew that and the rest of them work well together. I totally agree Mouse should be dominant here but they are spinning their wheels, bit of a trend here towards underdogs I guess. 2.5 for mouse after 1 map win, maybe I should be delaying my bet on this anticipated weakness to normally reliable teams, still learning :p

I tailed your Dota picks by the way.

I also went with complexity +1.5 and MAD Lions ML as my main bet. I have complexity to beat mousesports for the FJ promo too, kinda risky bet but i like their recent form. If things go south again, at least we have some Bundesliga/2 matches later on and we can fix things. Grin

I went to sleep since I couldn't keep my eyes open when it was 10:5 for Furia at half time. I thought they will win 3rd map easy...Now you say double overtime...Better I didn't watch and didn't know about the drama.

It was intense, maybe a little too much for my mental health lol liquid close to the comeback in map 3, then the OT...pretty good.

That win was enough for me to end that day without on positive 0 balance.

I'm not really sure about this Secret and OG match, OG can win surprisingly (already happened before) in the playoffs but based on the previous performances Secret is way better than OG.

I am not sure either. I agree that Secret is better and more stable team but odds on their win are very small and have no value. I have a feeling bookies are underestimating OG. They aren't exactly without chances, if they have a good day they can take a map easily and maybe even a match. I chose that pick based on odds value.

That win was enough for me to end that day without on positive 0 balance. Hopefully I will get back to winning ways today. I am thinking Heroic + MS + OG takes a map from Secret but it still early to lock the pics, have to do a bit of research first.

@harko man, you won't believe me but, while I was in the meatspace taking care of some BS today I recalled my Astralis bet and for a second I thought "i'm backing Astralis three days in a row now, idk why but i have a bad feeling about this", i brushed it off just like any other random thought...
Astralis!!!! Angry

I guess it's one of those shitty days! Undecided

Shitty day indeed. I was on cloud nine after 5 out of 6 wins in the last 2 days, but today it might be only 2 out of 4...Team Liquid with the 2-1 win vs Flytomoon and hopefully Furia will get the job done vs Liquid (3rd map ongoing)

EDIT* ggwp Furia...intense match, double OT, but we got there =)

Astralis should be very disappointed of what just happened, i don't think anyone expected them to lose, let alone in two maps. Bookies cashing out big time with this one! G2 after losing their first game, and almost losing the second one, will move into the Upper Bracket of the tournament. Damn!

You know this man! It would have been a huge day 'em bookies!

That game cost me a very nice multi ticket.

I still have another multi alive. I just need Furia to win their match against Liquid but this one has gotten to poor start as well. Furia is loosing 10-5 on their map pick and if they don't win this next pistol round it is basically over. Next map is Nuke and Furia is just 44% on that one so it will be tough to get to 3rd map.

I was too gutted with Astralis losing, so I decide not to stream Furia game, upon checking now Furia are 1-0 down and 9-6 down in the 2nd map.

It's just been a shitty day, I couldn't agree more!

EDIT: Furia somehow turned the game around and it's 1-1!, hopefully they can win the 3rd map as well for you, GL!

Heroic trashed North and I bet 3 maps so I lost this one, they won North's map pick more easily then their own as I think they just broke their spirit or something. I should have had more faith in the Heroic performance previously and just bet them outright and conversely Astralis are now badly faltering but I put down a late bet for them to come back @2 which seemed a fair bet as Dust2 is a particular kind of map aim and awp and apparently its the only one G2 have beaten Astralis on recently.

I'm still getting back upto speed where these teams are at but the consistency is not near perfect on any of them, these are challenging bets to take.
