Team Liquid and GG being out, not sure if it's part of the plan or they were just really not that strong for the past tournaments as they need to have a long rest prior to their preparation of TI 2023.

I'm surprised too how poor Team Liquid and GG performance on this tournament. It looks like that they are not giving 100% of their game and hiding strategy on their sleeves that can be use on TI. But I doubt that they intentionally lose since Dreamleague prize pool is still decent while they can use this opportunity to train and experiment before the major event.

I believe many gambler lose bets on these 2 team since many expect them to play better due to their past tournament result.

Eternal Fire lost to C9 in the ESL Pro League and fell to the lower bracket.In the Lower Bracket, EF, who matched with 9INE, won the first map and is leading 12-10 on the Vertigo map chosen by 9INE.If he wins this match, he will play with the loser of the VP-G2 match.The VP-G2 match was 1-1 and extended to the decider map.I think G2 will win on the Ancient map.VP has not played much on this map and G2 is a team with a high winning percentage.

EF did a really good job in the 9INE match. On the Anubis map, w0xic was unstoppable and carried the entire team. It was a very important victory, 2-0. I watched with great surprise as Cloud9 lost to Complexity. No one was expecting Complexity there. Eternal Fire lost 2-0 against VP, they were actually close matches, but VP is a very strong team, even though Eternal Fire had a good win yesterday, everyone knew that they did not have much chance against Virtus Pro. Now all that's left are the lower final and upper final stages.

Gaiming gladiators vs entity game was very very entertaining especially map 3

Entity were huge underdogs with 2 standins and nobody expected they would win a map let alone win the series like this

They dominated all 3 maps almost and the map 3 pudge pick was very surprising, i was tracking live odds and they were 4x in the first few mins only of map 3

Malrine and ATF are good stand-ins and they're not just playing to play but also to help the team to get to some better ranks as they continue in the lower bracket.
Anyway, we will see if Entity will survive the lower bracket against BetBoom or it will be their last match.

Instead , in Dota 2 , GG are about to be eliminated and long have I waited for this moment because they dominated for too long this year and I think it's about time for another team to win DreamLeague ...maybe BetBoom ? They are playing against winner of GG and Entity.

GG is now out of the Dream League. It's a 2-1 standing from Entity. And in that case, BetBoom is going to face against Entity later on. With the current match that's happening now, it is with OG and 9Pandas. After that match then the BB and Entity match will happen.
Speaking of 9Pandas, there's this rumor that we might see Puppey going with TI together with this team as their coach. How true is that? I don't know, I've just seen some posts about that and if it tends true, I think that it's still better to have Silent as it was him all over this time that has coached them all year round.

G2 right now are on their peak performance and I doubt there is a team who could stop them....maybe Vitality ? or Ence ? Because I don't see Faze having a great time lately in CS:GO so their chances to actually compete with G2 are kinda low.

I think G2 will win on the Ancient map.VP has not played much on this map and G2 is a team with a high winning percentage.

G2 dominated on Ancient, leaving VP with only 5 rounds. They have secured the playoff spot and will play the upper bracket final later this Sunday.

My EPL bets for today. Expecting VP to win against EF and Liquid to upset C9. If Complexity can do it, Liquid should too Cheesy

I got the same bet on GG, it's hard not to back them to win 2-0 when Stormstormer is out and Malrine would be the one filling in for the side of Entity.

The odds continue to move down as I see it hovering at 1.66 on some bookies. I'm hoping they don't get too confident because the last time I backed them to win 2-0 was during BB Dacha and they surprisingly lost the second map against TSM. Lips sealed

Oh wait thats a better odds then mine. What's the site for that? I got 1.75 on Rollbit and you got 1.85. Well not that much difference for me because Im only betting with relatively small stakes on esport but its always feels good when you know that you could get better odds somewhere.

Anyway what really surprised me was SR though, they are probably the team that I wouldnt even imagine would end up in the top 4 spot but they made it there. SR were basically fodder team like months ago and now they seems like a very different team but too bad though Team Spirit is currently in their top form so their next game against Spirit would be pretty hard

Now that I have extra balances to play with, I tried another risky bet again

Normally I would go for over 2.5 maps but there will be a stand-in for Entity so that might affect how they play, as for OG I dont really know why I pick them but probably because I have a soft spot for Nigma's member so yeah MC would carry this team for sure Roll Eyes

I wish they would win today to get to the playoff stage because I put their name on BSFL LOL Roll Eyes

I was close to adding them to my BSFL prediction but dropped them after seeing their bad start in the groups and thought they wouldn't make it far in the tournament.

Now that they woke up, i'm starting to see them as the favorites to win it all.

Yeah lol GG is always going to be the favourite on every tournament. This team has no chill at all, they won like every tournament that they attend and if they can win at TI then I guess its going to be pretty epic achievement for them

Normally, those who are doing well on the tournaments that are being held before TI are the ones that are dropping out of the tournament early. It's the same thing for years now, and I think it's quite safe to say that the said pattern can occur again. Of course, with the way GG is playing, they might break the pattern and win the TI, but this occurrence has been so consistent that I'm actually scared of rooting for GG to make it far in TI.

I also have Team Spirit to win against Tundra in the other upper bracket series. Team Spirit still got their form from the Riyadh Masters and i'm not sure if Tundra's nerdy drafts are more than enough to take them out.

Group D matches in the ESL Pro League kicked off today. The first match was G2 vs Lynn Vision. G2 struggled a bit on their opponent's chosen map but managed to win the match 2-0. IGL hooxi was the star of the match and G2 started the group with a win.
The other match in the group is the VP-TL match and it is going on right now. The score is now 1-1 and the decider map is being played. Both teams won their chosen maps and now Liquid leads 6-2 in the last map.

The 2-0 felt like a trap because you can't count out the underdogs when the favorites could take the next game less seriously after they secure their spot in the playoffs.

Well yeah at some point, most of the game are likely to end with 1-1 for sure but I think Im still sticking with Tundra today. I bet on SR 2-0 as well because I think they need to win badly today to get that top bracket spot and Talon is obviously not on their top shape right now so a 2-0 for SR just seems likely for today. This is going to be pretty interesting to watch for sure

The group stage gave GG a lot of room to experiment and this should be their third time playing in the lower brackets this year, assuming they win their final series later today.

I finally got a winning bet but I still can't get a read on these teams.

For the final day of the group stage, i'm going with the teams that need to win at least one map and hope they give their all to win the first map. The 2-0 felt like a trap because you can't count out the underdogs when the favorites could take the next game less seriously after they secure their spot in the playoffs.

Quote from: arallmuus on September 19, 2023, 05:28:31 AM

As expected, GG always seems to be losing on the first one or two days then somehow make it up on top before the group stage ended. Totally love that some teams are trying to play with different players so we can really expect some roster changes on TI for sure if that works out in their favour. CIS teams are pretty good on group stage for some reason but I doubt that any of them would win this tournament

In the grand final of the Thunderpick World Championship tournament, we see that very close scores were taken.Spirit-SAW fought in the final match.Spirit won the match 2-1, but the fact that the map scores were very close shows how hard both teams tried to win this match. The Spirit team is made up of young and talented players.We can say that they have become a strong team after including 3 players from the academy team to the main squad.SAW team is also the leading team in Portugal, but we can say that their squad is still inadequate.In this kind of tournaments, they see their own mistakes in a way.

So I took another bet because I feel like winning after getting my hit on Tundra. OG seems like a better team now and GG lost their 1st game so I thought that they might be able to get a draw against GG

That's a great hit on the draw and it looks like GG is on a bad start while the CIS teams are taking the lead in both groups.

0/3 on the first day after more than half of the games today went 2-0 and the draws came in late. Tongue

I thought of switching it up and focusing on betting against the teams that struggled yesterday.

Did anyone watched Topson's debut game with Tundra against Talon? Although this series has ended in a draw, 1-1 standing.

Im sure this ended in 2-0 for Tundra

Yeah, that was a mistake and now fixed. And going on with their other match which was against Shopify Rebellion, it was the opposite and they've got a 0-2 series.

Quote from: dimonstration on September 18, 2023, 11:52:32 AM

Just watch Tundra match against SR, Topson is playing during early to mid game but Abed ES is unstoppable that makes them struggle to catch up on late game since SR has Alchemist fully online already with ES rampaging all over the map. I thought Tundra already got the match but the SR triple BKB pays really well since Topson Kunkka and 33 Sand King is useless on the clash with all those BKB active in clash.

But overall, The match is very good to watch. Cool itemization is what makes SR get Game 1.

Their team work and synchronized movement made their win on this one. I guess that all of this time, I've been treating SR as a very overrated team but this time is different and how much more with the TI, right?

On the game 2, it's surprising to see some good decisions being done by rtz of rotating at the top during the early minutes since there were twin gates. He can easily go back and forth but as a position 1, that's unusual.
