I am not sure if TL can win the C9-TL match.You took a good risk.

Yep that was a good call 2/2 yesterday. C9-TL went all the way to map 3 but TL could close it there.

We have 3 matches today but I missed the first one. The other two were rematchs of the first round, VP-TL battling for a playoff spot and EF-C9 in the last chance bracket. I think the result would still be the same as the first round, i.e. VP and C9 winning.

Tundra is the safer play for the next series, but I think it wouldn't hurt to go for over 2.5 because I view both teams at the same level.

My sweet spot would still love to go for OG though, kinda interesting to watch them play and continue this until the lower bracket final so Im going for them and apart of that the odds for Tundra moneyline and over 2.5 maps is pretty low so yeah. I got Tundra for BSFL though but not that it really matters anymore because Im going down to division 2 Roll Eyes

Also found this pretty unusual bets that Rollbit offered, picking dire side to win in total kills for 3 match

The last few matches of the ESL Pro League Season 18 Group D are happening this weekend, before the Playoffs start next week. There are going to be a lot of interesting matches this week with the big final coming next Sunday. The first match today is going to be 9INE vs Lynn Vision, I don't really know the Chinese teams that much so it's hard to bet on this match. The polish team 9INE looks stronger and could win the match but I am not going to place any bets here. Team Liquid vs Virtus.pro is a more interesting match and I know the teams much better. I am going with Virtus.pro for this match, they have the stronger team and two teams already played each other this week where Virtus.pro won 2-1. The last match of the day is going to be Cloud9 vs Eternal Fire, which is going to be another rematch of this week. The two teams played each other on Wednesday and Cloud9 won 2-0, they will likely do so again today. As expected G2 reached the upper bracket final and is going to play Complexity tomorrow. G2 is such a strong team that I don't see any chance for them losing this match. The two teams played each other during the Paris Major and G2 won comfortably and will likely do it again tomorrow.

Seems its upsets after upsets today in dream league,
First entity beat GG 2-1 by basically dominating all 3 maps early game,

Now OG beats 9pandas 2-0,

Gaimin Gladiator's loss was the biggest upset but props to Entity for playing well. During the third map, they always killed the supports and kited them during the team fights since they lacked disables.

The OG upset was a bit expected after 9pandas lost their form in the last two days of the group stages and OG's record in the group stage wasn't as bad when they snagged a map against every team aside from the Team Spirit.

Tundra is the safer play for the next series, but I think it wouldn't hurt to go for over 2.5 because I view both teams at the same level.

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 knew that G2 would win the match on this map because G2 has a high winning percentage on Ancient.VP didn't have much match experience on this map so they had a hard time playing.
There is not much to say about the VP-EF match.EF players continue to play as if they lost the match when they lose a round.They need to put an end to this.I am not sure if TL can win the C9-TL match.You took a good risk.

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.

EF was able to win the 9INE match with their stars playing well.Woxic played one of the matches where he found himself.Really winning this match made me feel that at least they will achieve something in this tournament.Complexity had a surprise win as you said.C9 has a good roster and I wouldn't expect them to lose to Complexity either.
I think EF is a team that has the power to beat VP, but tactically they are not successful at all.They make sudden and urgent decisions and make mistakes.This may be due to the IGL.

Well its certainly an upset when GG lost but overall they had a good run this entire year but at some point, all the other teams are improving at a pretty decent rate so at one point GG is going to be left behind but yeah this is an upset

As for OG, if you watch their game then you will notice that they were pretty good. Im not sure if MC is going to stay with OG in TI but obviously OG is now way better with him on the team so this is not an upset for sure

Quote from: rohang on September 22, 2023, 12:30:37 PM

Next up is entity playing betboom, BB have looked pretty good this dreamleague but we can always expect them to lose the games that matter
I think entity at 2.7 odds is certainly a play

Well Betboom is definitely the better team so I wouldnt even sweat on taking Entity to win here

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.

Yeah, they just wanna be out early on this DL since there's a priority that they need to keep their eyes on. The prize pool is still decent in this tournament but maybe they just don't wanna put out their strategies that are being hidden and reserved for the TI.

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

Definitely.
They're a crowd favorite and they're known to be the best two teams always that end up in the finals. But this is an upset for those bettors that have believed on them and they just have to move on because this is normal in Dota 2 tournaments.

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.

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.

-snip

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.
