Yeah, that first game was crazy, I already crossed them out when they're down by more than 10k since 496's power spike with the razor looked overwhelming as they kept on losing engagement after engagement.

Already mentioned this few days ago and I still think it's a solid pick since the odds didn't move as much Tundra -1.5 as long as Miracle is out I don't think Nigma Galaxy would be able to get a map against Tundra after dominating their first opponent with the same draft.

I don't like the slate of games today but i'll give Fnatic -1.5 a shot since TNC is still in no mans land and Fnatic only played one series so far with their new roster.

Now they're facing a weaker team and I think this will be the testing ground to see if they have what it takes to compete against the top of the division since a lot of people have high expectations in this roster.

Three wins in a row, while my picks on the other thread aren't having that much luck, unfortunately. Moving on to some more VCS this is the last week of the winter season and today Burst the Sky will be facing one of the weakest team which is Team Flash. They only have two games left and their other match is against Cerberus, the best team in their region which means a win is very unlikely, they can't afford to lose and drop a map as Saigon Buffalo is also in a tough position facing two of the top teams.

Yes on of the biggest tournaments in the jear, first match have startet Natus Vincere vs Team Liquid each round win anthoer team its crazy.
later than antoher BIG player Gambit vs Heroic here im think Gambit will win this an goes to the finals.
G2 Esports vs Ninjas in Pyjamas  Ninjas are get a bit comeback this jear they play realy good and have chance to go intro the finals.
Vitality vs Astralis im think Astralis will win and play in the finals vs Heroic or Ninjas.

3 more games are waiting for Talon and they should really give their best for these remaining games that they have under division 2. They're in the middle but it's the bottom middle.
If they happen not to the maintain their current standing, their position in the middle might be sniped by any of those two that are about to be eliminated.

Blast Premier Winter Finals are coming to a close with just three teams left:
Team Vitality, Navi & Gambit left in these finals. With the latter waiting on the result of today's match to know who they will be facing.

Navi are heavily favored against Vitality.

Not too certain if anyone has viewed anything on netflix recently but there are a couple of shows/series which are from the DOTA 2 and the League of Legends universe.
The two shows are reviewed at these youtube videos for those who interested in seeing them:
First one is for Arcane from the Critical Drinker - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W3h6Pszege4
This one is from Upcomer stating it is the series which took over netflix - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=89Nlk9wQ11U

Both reviews are correct and should be watched before viewing the series in my opinion anyways.
It certainly is a masterpiece to behold and the best adaptation for a video game series ever made.

I was referring to Free to Play for DOTA2 as the documentary on netflix and not bloodmoon.
I did find it's story poor but hopefully their second season does it justice when it releases in about three weeks from now on the 21st of next month.
Here is more information about this documentary of the Internationals final of the largest prize pool given in an online gaming tournament of $1.06 million with the film centralized on the famous Dendi and Fear.

For something that happened a decade ago it still is rather intriguing to see how it built up and made it's high presence in the online gaming genre to this day possible. And this was the first time I found out why there were Dendi emojis made for this player of DOTA2.

Wow, they're already starting the matches, the teams don't seem to mind to play even though there's some holiday hangover. Pretty big names although usual teams are participating, need to probably stay away from betting for awhile to gauge the skills of other teams.

Unless I know the players or at least some team redefining player(s) then not comfortable betting on the newer up and coming teams so much.   I used to bet on Tarik when he was 'unknown', long time ago and now he is wanting to go Valorant if anything looks like & I got 50x odds on some retired Canadian players, people who opted out of pro to go UNI not from any lack of skill but also they long gone now.  Its possible but tricky to do.  Perhaps bet small placer bets and learn something more then gain or risk especially.   Same for the Asia games, they dont feel as consistent but Im in the wrong time zone so some personal bias.
