It truly is, this is much harder on Valve's side and we can no longer see the grandest tournament for Dota 2 community for this year. But, there's still next year that we can wait and for sure they'll make it better by that time to remove the disappointment that most fans have right now.

You're welcome.

I'm a fan of Secret and they have been impressive for these years although when The International comes, they are finding themselves hard to prove that they are the best of them all. I feel bad for TNC as they are the team which has the highest DPC point and is making them sure for this canceled Ti10.

I have my doubts if sales would be enormous since there will be no Ti10 but I'm also thinking about that as well, the possibility of Ti10 for 2nd quarter and Ti11 for the 4th quarter of 2021.

My prediction sound right.

But for the battlepass still, be released on may there have some delay about the release of battle since the pandemic still going until now. Went TI10 will be held on 2021 a few speculation TI can be held by 2 times or the prize pool got double since battlepass TI10 still be realease.

Team Secret is no doubt one of the best. After all, it earned its reputation as an all-star team. But the best? Well, that's a little bit questionable. As far as the TI is concerned, they have never even reached the finals, not once. So, I am doubting more than ever that Team Secret will be able to get the aegis come TI 10.

I think postponing the event is the best way to go in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic scare. There is no point pushing for it this year, not when people are scared to go to crowded areas, if such a huge event is even allowed in the first place. 

Today's free bets:

4/5 CS:GO
2/3 Dota 2

Pretty satisfied with the results!

Thank you for sharing here and now I am aware.

I find Team Secret as the best of all. I have seen this team before beating other teams in no hassle. I can't wait for this tournament to be rescheduled as soon as possible. Team Secret will definitely nail this tournament. And the prize pool is really impressive that everything will surely do everything to take home this million dollars.

It's very sad and kinda disappointing.

Well, I understand them as big events need a lot of planning, major sponsors, and huge crowds, and they are impossible to accomplish because of the pandemic. As players, we need to consider how the organizer team feels to be unable to conduct an event like this. The health of players is also extremely important especially for the Chinese team and others, where their country is the most susceptible to the virus.

First match just ended. HellRaisers won 2-0. So 1st bet is a win 

Thanks for taking the  time to write all this out.

I decided to get back in and have another go.

Missed the first game but funded now and put something on the other 2 matches

Hi folks, this is related to Dota 2's biggest yearly event and sadly, we're not going to have it for this year due to the pandemic situation that we are dealing with. It's very sad being a fan of this most awaited event for Dota 2 but at the same time, we understand the decision.

This is the official statement of Valve regarding that matter.

[DOTA 2] WePlay! Pushka League Season 1 continues to shock us. Underdogs are performing and favourites are disappointing. 2 out of 3 favourites lost their matches on Thursday. NaVi dismantled VirtusPro and they are now holding 1st place in the CIS group. What a surprise. Let’s see what Friday can bring us

B8 - HellRaisers: HellRaisers -1.5, 1.52 @ BetOnBit
flytomoon - Team Spirit: Team Spirit, 2.19 @ BetOnBit
Team Liquid - OG: Team Liquid 1.5, 1.55 @ BetOnBit

As I have already said, B8 is one of the weakest CIS tier 1 squads. They didn’t do anything in the previous ESL One LA Online tournament, and it looks like they don’t have a chance to do anything in this league too. They are currently holding last place in the group with 2 losses. They are 0-4 in maps as they dominantly lost vs NaVi and Team Spirit. On the other side, HellRaisers is a nice surprise for us all. We knew that they were really good and that they are a really solid CIS team, but are they ready now for the next step? Seems like yes, it seems like this is their patch. They are sharing 1st place in the group with 3 wins vs NaVi, VirtusPro and FlyToMoon. Really impressive results, especially vs Virtus.Pro, who are on the downfall. HellRaisers should win this match, and I don’t give any chance for B8 to do anything here.

It’s so weird to see FlyToMoon here as favourites. However, they’ve deserved that title maybe with their last performances. Even though they have only 2 wins from their last 5 matches, they have shown really good performance and games vs Virtus.Pro where they took a map, and by beating VP.Prodigy 2-1, a team that was on a hot streak beforehand. Team Spirit is a team that can beat anyone in the CIS scene, maybe in the top 4 teams from CIS currently, together with Virtus.Pro, HellRaisers and VP.Prodigy. They have beaten a weak B8 and lost to NaVi and VP.Prodigy. They really had hard matches and games, especially as NaVi woke up and they are dominating this group. In this situation, I would give a slight edge to Team Spirit, because I’m still nostalgic when I remember their ESL One LA Online performance. Amazing odds on Spirit as this match is way more even than the odds show.

Team Liquid is really an example that everybody can beat each other in this league. Team Liquid that had looked disastrous in the ESL One LA Online, are now creators of shocking surprises. They crushed Nigma, they crushed Team Secret, but they have lost to NiP and Alliance. It’s really hard to understand those results, but let’s remember teams / players are playing from home and are way more relaxed and chilled then they would be usually in normal circumstances. OG has 2 defeats, one vs Alliance and another one vs Team Secret. In their last match vs Secret, MidOne played for OG, instead of their temporarily standin Wish-. We still don’t know what their roster will look like for the match vs Liquid. After watching Liquid defeat Team Secret, I must give them some credit, and for that betting on Liquid +1.5 handicap is a good way to go. According to sportsbooks, OG are heavy favourites in this best of 3 match with approximate 1.40 odds.

He fully called this post patch volatility

I really don't like the offer today, every pick I like has odds without value. Where are you rand, I need some ideas

Hopefully Vici gaming looses now so I will have some bonus money to squander later on. That was only bet with value for me this morning.

Nothing physical but they were banned by Valve to all of their events.

Minors, majors and The International. A lot of opportunities were wasted and went into vain because of that reckless act they did.

This is the problem with online tournaments. Not the players though, the connection.

As far as I know, w1sh can't play so CCnC stand-in for him, and then CCnC has a game so M1done now plays for CCnC, well, he really is the player to start with and is said to play at 4 am at Malaysia with 200 ping, just sad. They've been trying with other players since Topson and M1done are not available with the pings they had, I don't know why m1done played though, with 200 ping that is.



No, it did not.

Valve handled most of these issues and most of the players and those people that are included in this match-fixing are banned on Valve events, worse, banned on all of the Dota 2 events. 322 is one of those popular match-fixing incidents on Dota 2, one of the popular memes also, so if you have some time, you could watch this video about that.

Sorry we are going off topic but this sounds ominous. Did it turn physical? like something happened to them?

Even more than that, in the last few days, several teams that are seeded in this tournament (Secret, Virtus Pro, OG) lost to teams that had worse records than them (Alliance, HellRaisers, Liquid, Navi).

This is very interesting news. But well, unpopular players who aren't really serious into Pro Dota 2 scene won't sacrifice much if they do this.
But did they do this in the Division 1 too?

They weren't even popular players but have the nerve to fix match. Haven't they heard nor read what happened to those players that did match fixing way back years ago?

WePlay! Esports suspends CyberTRAKTOR on suspicion of match-fixing

https://dotesports.com/dota-2/news/weplay-esports-suspends-cybertraktor-on-suspicion-of-match-fixing

In case you thought match fixing is not happening in Dota 2 or other esports titles. It is happening, and they are not the only one who are doing it.

If that's true it might be a way to earn some wins out of it.

Over 2 played or something.

Im going to have a look at the odds
