Taking a Break Momentarily.

Dmitri — Thu, 28 May 2015 03:31:34 +0000

Hello, sorry if this is troublesome to any of you loyal followers who've won some insane bets with me. We've had underdog wins, yes, we've also lost a few matches. Generally we (at least I personally) earned a profit within the course of nearly two months.

I'm going to be on VACation for about 2 - 3 weeks starting June 1st, just preparing within the past few days. Don't worry though, as I plan on posting numerous analysis' during Summer, if there happens to be any LAN event's, i'll try to post an analysis, but we'll see.

Good luck to everyone within the coming month, and bet wisely!

Fnatic vs Na'Vi (BO1, Online);

Ok, to be honest with this one, yes it's a Best of One, on Na'Vi's home map and Na'Vi being the underdogs I kind of feel like betting on them. Either team can take it here, but due to the fact that this is Na'Vi's greatest map, I might give them a slight edge, as long as they perform today.

Personally Betting Low / Medium on Na'Vi.
Odds when posted; Na'Vi 41 - 59
Personal Odds; Na'vi 50 - 50 Fnatic.

NIP vs Na'Vi (BO1, Online);

Yet another best of one on Na'Vi's greatest map thus far. NIP have been fairly dominant though overall, and I feel this one can go either way as well. Simply watch how Na'Vi play beforehand, and bet accordingly.

Personally skipping.
Odds when posted; Na'Vi 60 - 40 NIP
Personal Odds; Na'Vi 50 - 50 NIP
Advised bet; Low on NIP / Skip.

I'm essentially going to skip these Best of Two Matches, as I feel they are quite pointless. I am rather confident Incursion will defeat District7, but i'm not willing to bet on that match, although Incursion is by far the greater team skill-wise.

CLG vs KeyD (BO1, Online);

Ok, the map is de_cobblestone, which i'm very uncertain about how KeyD play on this particular map. KeyD should be the favourites here, but given that they are this much in favour, on an Online Best of One match, I feel as though an underdog bet is worth a spicer. Hopefully CLG don't go on tilt like they usually do...

Personally Betting Low / Medium on CLG.
Odds when posted; KeyD 67 - 33 CLG
Personal Odds; KeyD 55 - 45 CLG

I'm just glancing over some matches, and there is an insane amount of upset potential currently. Be advised on all EU Matches for tomorrow.

FlipSid3 vs LDLC.White (BO3, Online);

Ok, the odds currently seem a tad bit off, judging from FlipSid3's past performances. They simply haven't been performing as they usually do, but it's mainly because they force-buy too many of the times in which case they shouldn't. Many teams are beginning to do this, and I hope they eventually realize that it's a huge risk, and more times than not doesn't pay out. This being stated, I still favour FlipSid3, but I see potential with LDLC.White.

Personally Skipping.
Odds when posted; Flipsid3 72 - 28 LDLC.White
Personal Odds; FlipSid3 60 - 40 LDLC.White
Advised Bet; Low on LDLC.White, or skip.

NIP vs HR (BO1, Online);

The map is de_cache if i'm not mistaken, one which NIP happen to be quite incredible on. This being said, Hell Raisers is currently performing superbly with their new roster, and I simply wouldn't feel safe betting on NIP currently, at least not with these outrageous odds.

Personally Betting Low On Hell Raisers.
Odds when posted; NIP 75 - 25 HR
Personal Odds; NIP 60 - 40 HR

NIP vs Titan (BO1, Online);

These odds yet again, simply ridiculous. Titan are Best of One Online Kings! It's also Titan's said to be favourite map I believe, they play superbly on de_dust2. I highly advise you watch NIP vs HR before betting on this match, just to get a feel as to whether NIP warmed-up I presume. This truly can go either way, hopefully these odds stay so juicy!

Personally Betting Medium on Titan.
Odds when posted; NIP 67 - 33 Titan
Personal Odds; NIP 50 - 50 Titan

Na'Vi vs TSM (BO1, Online);

The map is de_train, of which both teams perform quite well on (especially Na'Vi). That being said, TSM are really consistent at the moment, and providing results, both Online and on LAN. This can go either way, but I do give a slight edge to Na'Vi as I feel they have more game-sense about this map compared with TSM. Skill-wise it's fairly balanced.

Personally Betting Low / Medium on Na'Vi.
Odds when posted; Na'Vi 44 - 56 TSM
Personal Odds; Na'Vi 55 - 45 TSM

Skipping the other matches, as I don't feel they are worthwhile to bet on any of them. VP are always hit or miss online, and I don't feel safe at all betting on them for any online matches. The rest are just Best of Two's.

Tempo Storm vs Method (BO2, Online);

Ok, I understand this is a Best of Two, but these teams aren't as evenly balanced as people seem to believe. In my opinion, Tempo Storm is a much higher team compared with Method, at least skill-wise. Team-work wise though, Method may have a stronger suit, but they usually boggle it up against fiercer opponents. I feel Tempo Storm has this in the bag, as long as they can actually implement teamwork (Which they should be able to do so.)

Personally Betting Medium / High on Tempo Storm.
Odds when posted; Tempo Storm 62 - 38 Method.
Personal Odds; 70 - 30 Method.

AffNity vs Nihilum (BO2, Online);

Ok, Nihilum are in quite a dominant form at the moment, and frankly I simply don't see them losing a map against this team, unless it happens to be an unusual pick / a map they are not comfortable with. Since it's a Best of Two, I simply cannot see Nihilum losing one map to a lower tier team. Odds are decent at the moment to still get some return value, but once it goes to about 87+, it's simply not worth it.

Personally Double Maxxing Nihilum.
Odds when posted; Nihilum 84 - 16 AffNity
Personal Odds; Nihilum 70 - 30 AffNity
*I know my odds are off, but it's a Best of Two...*

Skipping the other two matches, as firstly i'm very uncertain about ThirdEquinox or Devastation. The NRG vs SKDC game is highly advised to skip, as NRG are an unknown team, and SKDC are simply the lowest tier #1 NA team at the moment.

eLevate vs Nihilum (BO2, Online);

Best of two yet again, all I can say is that this should be very balanced theoretically, perhaps slight edge to eLevate as they have more team chemistry, but then again they also just recently added desi as a player. Can go either way here guys, bet wisely.

Personally skipping. -
Odds When posted; eLevate 38 - 62 Nihilum
Personal Odds; eLevate 55 - 45 Nihilum
Advised Bet; Low / Medium on eLevate, or Skip.

Method vs Tempo Gaming (BO2, Online);

I also favour Method to be victorious here, as they only need to win simply one Best of Three, whereas Tempo need two. It can be do-able for Tempo to possibly take down one Best of Three, if they all manage to light up, but in my opinion it's very unlikely that Method will just hand it to them too. At the moment it's worth a max on Paradox, but watch the odds closely.

Personally Maxxing Paradox.
Odds when posted; Paradox 82 - 18 Tempo Gaming
Personal Odds; Paradox 75 - 25 Tempo Gaming

Lunatik vs SKDC (BO2, Online);

I'm still uncertain of what SKDC is capable of, as they haven't really proven themselves to me currently. I do know that Stewie, Slemmy, and Ocean are fairly even opponents compared to draWsouL, and inVert. I feel as though Lunatik is a more polished team at the moment, however, SKDC may take a map. A lot of uncertainty here, and highly advise a skip.

Personally Skipping.
Odds when posted; Lunatik 57 - 43 SKDC
Personal Odds; Lunatik 50 - 50 SKDC
Advised Bet; Skip, at all costs.

May 17th, 2015 Gfinity Spring Masters Day 3

Dmitri — Sun, 17 May 2015 07:58:23 +0000

Skipping the Mayan LAN, as I simply know nothing about the tournament, nor the teams. You can try your luck, but watch out as all i'm saying is the odds will most likely be off (expect a frenzy of upsets).

Titan vs Fnatic (BO3, LAN)

Ahhh, how I miss Best of Three's. Finally a match, which definitely can go either way. Hopefully Titan play the way they did today, as they simply dominated their opponents. I honestly believe this can go either way, but it does depend whether Apex and KennyS will perform well. For Fnatic, I presume their somewhat consistent, but they do have many weak spots hopefully Titan can take advantage of this (de_cache).

Personally Betting Low / Medium on Titan.
Odds When Posted; Fnatic 75 - 25 Titan
Personal Odds; Fnatic 55 - 45 Titan
*BO3, plus Fnatic's consistency gives them a slight edge.*

Na'Vi vs VP (BO3, LAN);

Ok, this match will be quite a splendid one to observe. Na'Vi played fairly well today, yes. But a thing to definitely note would be that NIP didn't play very well overall, players simply not performing. This match can go either way, and is immensely hard to predict, I suggest take a gamble, or skip.

Personally Betting Low / Medium on VP.
Odds When Posted; Na'Vi 54 - 46 VP.
Personal Odds; Na'Vi 50 - 50 VP
*Just playing the odds, taking a gamble.*

X6stence vs HR (BO2, Online);

I truly expect HR to win at least one map within this Best of Two, given their recent recent performance. I feel confident Maxxing them at the moment, but X6tence may take a map here.

Personally Maxxing HR.
Odds When Posted; HR 77 - 23 X6tence.
Personal Odds; HR 65 - 35 X6tence.

Skipping the other Best of Two's as odds are ridiculous at the moment, and will become even more ridiculous in the coming few hours. Advise a skip here guys, not even worth betting on either team.

****UPDATE****

Fnatic vs VP (BO5, LAN);

Looking at VP's performance at the moment when compared to Fnatic's, there's no doubt that Fnatic should be the favourites here. But I personally feel the odds are a tad bit off, and the map pool definitely favors VP. This being said, VP were choking quite hard against Na'Vi, so this may be the decider between these two teams, if VP chokes, Fnatic will most likely close it off for themselves. Can go either way here, slight edge to Fnatic

Personally Betting Low / Medium on VP.
Odds When Posted; Fnatic 73 - 27 VP
Personal Odds; Fnatic 60 - 40 VP
*Bet wisely, as Fnatic will most likely take it, just betting on odds.*

May 16th, 2015 ~ Gfinity Spring Masters Day 2

Dmitri — Sat, 16 May 2015 05:09:09 +0000

Ok, I was hoping there would be Best of Ones, or even Best of Three's Today, but nope. I believe the entire tournament is just a Best of Two format, whoever with the most points overall, being the victor. A peculiar format, not very great for betting, but is fairly entertaining no doubt.

VOX vs Liquid (BO2, LAN);

After that terrible performance by Liquid, they somehow managed to take a map off of an underperforming Na'Vi. VOX on the otherhand played superbly, and after that performance, I expect them to take at least on map off of Liquid. However, odds might get out of hand.

Personally Maxxing VOX
Odds when posted; VOX 72 - 28 Liquid
Personal Odds; VOX 65 - 35 Liquid
*Watch odds closely, bet wisely.*

Fnatic vs Na'Vi (BO2, LAN);

I don't think an underdog is worthwhile here, because even if Na'Vi manage to take a map, I highly doubt they will take two maps off of Fnatic, as both teams didn't play too hot yesterday. However, if you're feeling it, go for it.

Personally skipping.
Odds when posted; Fnatic 74 - 26 Na'Vi
Personal Odds; Fnatic 60 - 40 Na'Vi
Advised Bet; Low / Medium on Na'Vi, or skip.

Titan vs VP (BO2, LAN);

Ok, I actually see upset potential here, even with the BO2 format. VP had two maps which heavily favoured them against Cloud9 (de_cache, and de_train) Exceptional maps for VP. Titan played pretty well overall, just made many mistakes, some people not playing up to par. Hopefully Titan can perform a bit better from yesterday.

Personally betting Medium on Titan
Odds when posted; Titan 19 - 81 VP
Personal Odds; Titan 40 - 60 VP

VP vs EnVyUs (BO2, LAN);

Do not bet on this match currently, unless you plan on yoloing. I do feel EnVyUs played better overall yesterday, but tomorrow is a new day. I highly advise you watch these teams perform, beforehand and judge accordingly.

Personally skipping (Most likely going to Max EnVyUs)
Odds when posted; VP 52 - 48 EnVyUs
Personal Odds; VP 50 - 50 EnVyUs
*Watch how teams perform beforehand.*

Titan vs Cloud9 (BO2, LAN);

Ok, i'm actually quite excited about this match. I'm hoping this one to be quite close, with Cloud9 winning one map at the very least. Cloud9 might even win this match, if Titan are playing poorly all day, not waking up from their slumps (Was apex today). Since it's a Best of Two, worth a shot.

Personally betting Medium on Cloud9.
Odds when posted; Titan 68 - 32 Cloud9
Personal Odds; Titan 55 - 45 Cloud9

I advise a skip amongst all the other Gfinity matches for this day, as the odds are simply terrible, and it's just not worth to bet on either side. I expect there to be a lot of ties tomorrow, but i'm definitely rooting for Cloud9, get some NA Magic some day.

Dmitri — Fri, 15 May 2015 04:21:17 +0000

Finally, my worst nightmare has arrived. An ENTIRE group stages of a LAN, fully ina Best of Two format. Terrible, terrible, terrible idea, looking at the odds, terrible for betting as well. I'll just give my quick thoughts on the miniscule matches, only going over the bigger matches in my opinion.

NIP vs Liquid, is a must skip as odds are ridiculous for nay LAN event, even if Liquid will most likely lose. Same goes for Fnatic vs VOX

Immunity vs Cloud9 (BO2, LAN);

I feel as this will be a tie between these two teams, unless Cloud9 can pug-it-out against a proper team with proper strategies and teamwork. I don't feel Cloud9 has shaped up to be at their peak currently, but Skadoodle will be the deciding factor between this match, no doubt.

Personally skipping.
Odds when posted; Immunity 20 - 80 Cloud9
Personal Odds; Immunity 40 - 60 Cloud9
Advised Bet; Low on Immunity, or skip.

Immunity vs Titan (BO2, LAN);

Ok, Titan is always a shaky team when coming to LAN's. If they come prepared, and I mean in a really dominant fashion, they may take this entire event, but those performances only happen if KennyS gets out of his slump, which I feel he won't. The odds are simply not worth a bet on either team here, as I don't feel Immunity will defeat Titan.

Personally skipping.
Odds when posted Titan 87 - 13 Immunity
Personal Odds; Titan 65 - 35 Immunity
Advised Bet; Really Low on Immunity, or skip.

VP vs Cloud9 (BO2, LAN);

Ok, I highly advise you if you are betting on this match, to watch how Cloud9 play against Immunity. If Skadoodle has to hold Cloud9 on his back, they will lose this match. If everyone is performing decently, not making too many mistakes, this will be a close one, possibly even 2 - 0 in favour of Cloud9. (If VP don't perform, of course).

Personally betting Small / Medium on Cloud9
Odds when posted; Cloud9 20 - 80 VP
Personal Odds; Cloud9 40 - 60 VP
Advised Bet; Small / Medium on Cloud9

Skipping the other matches, and just watching for entertainment, I do feel that Na'Vi will win though, Fnatic will either tie with NIP or 2 - 0 them, and Titan vs EnVyUs will be a tie perhaps? Either skip those games, or try your luck, I truly hate these Best of Two's.

If you have a problem with any portion of my analysis, I insist you let me know the reasoning behind this. Instead of flaming the group, this will let your voice be heard, and I may adjust my analysis based on what you say. Feedback is critical for success. Thank you.

Dmitri — Tue, 12 May 2015 06:19:58 +0000

TSM vs VP (BO1, Online de_dust2);

VP has had a history on this map, not being too great, but they are still somewhat decent at it. TSM have just been dominating everyone both online and LAN, given TSM want to win this I also favour them. It is closer than the odds suggest in my opinion, but overall TSM should win with general skill and teamwork.

Personally betting Medium on TSM.
Odds when posted; TSM 72 - 28 VP
Personal Odds; TSM 60 - 40 VP

Na'Vi vs NIP (BO1, Online de_inferno);

Ok, given the history of both teams on this map, it definitely can go either way. NIP have been looking pretty strong with the addition of allu, and can show a really dominating CT side. For Na'Vi to win, flamie and Edward will need to light up, hopefully they do so for our skins' sake.

Personally betting Medium on Na'Vi.
Odds when posted; Na'Vi 39 - 61 NIP
Personal Odds; Na'Vi 50 - 50 NIP
