Yep ...looks like Valve really cancelled next DPC season and now there are rumors that all majors will be cancelled as well. To be honest , 2 out of 3 majors this year were a failure in production so I'm not surprised Valve wants something different. However , I really hope they won't let this game die on Esports scene... .

Some streamers already 2 years ago said that the DPS is imperfect and requires a lot of improvements.

This is a more natural development when the events will be financed by the audience. . I agree with you and think that Valve will also help develop and popularize Dota 2 in North America. This can also bring new energy to the game.

TSM are very strong in the lower bracket. They won the first map from Team Secret at the time of writing this post. But the Team Secret still has a chance to win. Then Gladiators will wait in the Grand final for the winner of this meeting.

Very surprised to see Dreamleague already on today as i wasnt aware it starts so soon after BB dacha.
This will be the final test before TI

Got some lines today i like on sportsbetio-

Gaimin Gladiators to win 2-0 vs spirit  @ 2.60

Liquid to win 2-0 vs OG  @ 2.00

will post more if these land!

I personally very rarely place bets with small odds like x1.08. Of course, the probability of winning is very high, I’m just very sad if it doesn’t work out. I often bet with odds x2.01. This may be my bias, so don't take it seriously.

I am glad that Virtus.Pro has a high Win rate lately. I think that in the near future they will gain a foothold in the top-7 according to the HLTV calculation system.

As soon as I see this name, I remember the old cs 1.6 movie, with such legends as hooch and F_1N  

In 2005, already in the lineup with hooch, Virtus.pro were the strongest team in Russia, winning the qualification for WCG 2005. I listened hooch thoughts on streams where he was invited as a guest. He had a brilliant understanding of the game, so I remember him very well.In those distant times, the WCG was considered the coolest tournament with very meager prize money when compared with modern prize money, which makes my blood pressure rise)

Liquid has weakened greatly in recent months, this is also due to major changes in composition. I think it will be a cakewalk for Virtus Pro. I wish you good luck with your bets.

The Liquid has weakened a lot in recent months, as you can see below. This also involves major lineup changes. I think it will be a cakewalk for Virtus.Pro . I wish you good luck in your bets.

The set of teams for the upper bracket are already out. These are the teams that are in the upper bracket.

• Shopify Rebellion vs. Betboom
• Team Spirit vs. Tundra Esports

And for the lower bracket, here they are;

• OG vs. 9Pandas
• Entity vs. winner of Quest/GG ~ these two are in a tie and will have to face each other tomorrow before proceeding to the lower bracket.

I am in between of Team Spirit and Tundra.

We're about to see that after the match of GG and Quest, while GG won the first game for this tie breaker game. It's now assured that GG is on the lower bracket and will be up against Entity tomorrow.

Both teams of SR and BB, sometimes they're strong and sometimes they choke. Well, what I mean is that most of them are struggling sometimes but we will see how they'll go later.

As for BB, I just hope that Pure will never type anything that's gonna affect them or do something again that will possibly punish them.

On Team Spirit and Tundra, I don't know we will see it too later after BB and SR.

I had a small parlay including complexity to win map 1 on anubis their own pick, i thought it was definitely possible

But whats happening right now is  very unexpected , cloud9 lost map  1 and are down 6-13 on map 2 as well,  their own pick :O

Regardless how this match goes we have G2 vs VP which im very excited  for.

Best bets would be just bet over on every map this series  

Impressive comeback.

That's two divine rapiers for you folks by our boy arturito. Everyone from SR did played patiently and didn't gave up when their mid and top barracks were already down.

When Betboom was trying to do the gg push at the bottom lane of radiant, they just can't and it's hard for them to get in. All from SR are commendable.

There's just one thing that I've noticed, Pure's confidence to build desolator when they were leading and thought that they won't lose really sucks.
