Okay so todays group stage is underway and I have presented my predictions on the Spreadsheet. Make sure to go over the notes.

I'm playing the odds on all these games, I will not be betting until the last minute that I can bet so be sure to keep a look out for skips. Most likely skip is Na'vi > VP.

Very good matchup coming up. Astralis has been looking beyond solid lately in all of their matchups except when Fnatic is involved, and Na'Vi has been doing pretty decently against much tougher opponents. This match feels like Astralis is the immovable object and Na'Vi is an unstoppable force.. Which will achieve victory?

Odds on lounge favor Astralis 60/40, while odds on Vulcun favor Na'Vi 60/40. Very interesting. These teams have even map pools and even performance. I think AST have been performing much better lately and we could easily easily see them take this, but today Flamie is looking to be in good form and Guardian's wrist injury seems much less prevalent, so Na'vi could very well still be the better team.

I think this will be a close matchup that will go all 3 maps with a lot of 14-16's or overtimes, but I think Na'vi will win out despite the amazing performances from Astralis recently.

For the next few days I'll only be posting to my spreadsheet, be sure to check for black triangles in the corner of cells as they could include notes that give a little bit of reason behind my bets.

Remember that this is all mainly for my own personal use but I want to help others too. Sometimes I will change my bets last minute or late. If you are following my bets add me on Steam and I'm happy to chat with you anytime you want to ask anything. :)

LG > NRG:

Normally I would suggest that LG have already won this game, but after seeing yesterdays issues I have become reluctant. They have seemed fine in FPL. Assuming the issues of ping were because LG had a bad server location and will not be a consistent issue, LG should have this. Especially since the map is Inferno.

MY BET: SKIP or RIP LG 70/30

LG > NRG:

Watch the first game to see how connections are doing (should be fine). This is another game LG should win, but on Mirage NRG can actually cause a legit upset. Although I'm sure LG are looking to redeem themselves and destroy today, may be worth throwing away an ICB onto NRG.

MY BET: SKIP OR ICB NRG - LG 65/35

CoL > NRG

It seems odds are favoring NRG pretty hard, but I don't quite understand why. While NRG may have the better results, CoL have incredibly skilled fraggers and could show up at any time. I 100% believe this should be a 1-1 and if CoL are going to win one, it'll probably be Cache where both of these teams have mixed results.

MY BET: Low on CoL 55/45

NRG > CoL

NRG is a really good D2 team, they have a very strong awper in PTR, so D2 doesn't really favor the puggy style of CoL as much here. The wildcard though is the mental fatigue that NRG will experience from playing 3 very tough earlier games. This is probably a skip. I'll bet according to their first 3 games so be sure to check back!

MY BET: SKIP (watch first 3 games and decide)
