]]>
FaZe Clan have secured a playoff spot at ESL Pro League Season 20, avenging their opening loss to Sangal with a 2-0 victory, winning on Anubis (13-11) and Dust2 (13-5).

After a shaky performance earlier in the Counter-Strike 2 tournament, FaZe’s recovery was driven by strong performances from H?vard “?rain?” Nygaard, David “?frozen?” ?er��ansky, and Robin “?ropz?” Kool.

Their counter-terrorist side on Anubis laid the foundation for rain to shine in the offensive half, while Dust2 saw a dominant FaZe performance, with Finn “?karrigan?” Andersen rallying his team loudly throughout.

Sangal, after defeating FaZe in their opening matchup, couldn’t build on that momentum.

They suffered defeats to Eternal Fire and FaZe, falling to the Last Chance Stage, where they will face FlyQuest.

FaZe��s recent form marks a shift after early exits from BLAST Premier Fall Groups and IEM Cologne.

Now, with an impressive run at the BLAST Premier Fall Showdown and solid improvements at ESL Pro League, they are back in playoff contention.

Meanwhile, Team Spirit also earned a playoff berth after reverse-sweeping 3DMAX.

Despite losing the first map on Anubis (6-13), Spirit bounced back with dominant wins on Ancient (13-6) and Nuke (13-2), powered by standout performances from Danil “?donk?” Kryshkovets and Myroslav “?zont1x?” Plakhotia.

In the Last Chance Stage, KOI and Lynn Vision were eliminated after losses to Wildcard and FlyQuest, respectively.

FlyQuest managed to stave off elimination in a hard-fought series against Lynn Vision, while Wildcard continues their tournament run after defeating KOI.

The MongolZ and 9z have also dropped into the Last Chance Stage following losses to Spirit and 3DMAX.

The MongolZ took Spirit to the brink but couldn’t close the series, while 9z’s defeat leaves them struggling to regain their early-season form after setbacks at IEM Cologne and BetBoom Dacha.

Spirit’s playoff berth was hard-fought, having earlier survived a scare from Wildcard and losing to MIBR.

Their recovery, alongside FaZe’s resurgence, adds intrigue as the tournament heads into the final stages.

Saturday’s ESL Pro League fixtures

  • 9z Team (+125) vs The MongolZ (-175.44) @ 1:30pm CEST
  • Sangal (-250) vs FlyQuest (+175) @ 1:30pm CEST

The post MIBR & G2 Esports advance to ESL Pro League playoffs appeared first on Esport Bet.

]]>
MIBR secured a spot in the playoffs of ESL Pro League Season 20 after a hard-fought 2-1 (2-13, 13-7, 16-13) victory over Spirit in the Group B upper bracket semi-finals.

Coming off a win against 9z, MIBR initially struggled, losing their Ancient pick 13-2.

However, they bounced back with a strong 6-0 start on the counter-terrorist side of the second map, comfortably tying the Counter-Strike series.

The decider, Anubis, went into overtime, where MIBR emerged victorious despite a fierce comeback from Spirit, led by Danil “donk” Kryshkovets.

Spirit will drop into the lower bracket and will face The MongolZ, who decisively beat KOI 2-0 (13-1, 13-0) in just 81 minutes, where they only lost one round across the two maps.

The Mongolians dominated, with standout performances from Usukhbayar “910” Banzragch and Munkhbold “Senzu” Azbayar, both boasting over a 2.00 rating.

KOI now faces elimination in the Last Chance Stage against Wildcard, who were convincingly beaten by 9z Team 2-0 (13-6, 13-10) in the lower bracket of Group B.

Elsewhere, both Heroic and Ninjas in Pyjamas (NiP) are in the Last Chance Stage after defeats in their lower bracket semi-finals.

Heroic let an 11-3 lead slip on Nuke against Sangal, losing the series despite a strong showing from Guy “NertZ” Iluz and Abdul “degster” Gasanov on Mirage.

NiP pushed FaZe Clan to the limit but eventually crumbled in the decider on Dust2, where H?vard “rain” Nygaard led FaZe to an 11-1 halftime advantage, before claiming the final map 13-1.

G2 Esports also secured a playoff spot after defeating 3DMAX 2-1 (10-13, 13-6, 13-7) and set up a clash with MIBR in the upper bracket final, with the winner set to earn a quarter-final spot in the playoffs.

Friday’s ESL Pro League fixtures

TEAM SPIRIT vs WILDCARD CS2 BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

Best Odds: Spirit -5000 at BetOnline | Wildcard +1187 at BetOnline
When: September 4, 2024 | 13:30 CEST
Watch Live: Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/ESLCS)

In one of the more lopsided fixtures of the ESL Pro League Season 20 group stage, Peter “stanislaw” Jarguz’s Wildcard will look to derail one of the tournament favourites, Team Spirit. However, iit is fair to question whether Counter-Strike betting sites have priced Spirit a bit too short.

Although Wildcard are one of the lowest-ranked teams in Malta and hail from a weak region, they have dominated the North American scene for the last two months. That is still not as impressive as Team Spirit’s run since the start of August, but at Intel Extreme Masters Cologne, we saw that Spirit can collapse even against weaker opponents.

It would be too optimistic to believe Wildcard can defeat Team Spirit under normal circumstances, but the map handicap odds for this series are a bit too generous.

THE MONGOLZ vs 3DMAX CS2 BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

Best Odds: MongolZ -181.82 at BetOnline | 3DMAX +143 at BetOnline
When: September 4, 2024 | 13:30 CEST
Watch Live: Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/ESLCS)

The MongolZ have made serious noise over the last few months in European Counter-Strike tournaments. While their run at IEM Cologne 2024 was not as successful, they defeated FlyQuest, Eternal Fire, and Team Spirit, and also played two close series against SAW.

After a strong run of their own, 3DMAX have cooled down lately. They won Skyesports Championship 2024 at the end of July but have since placed last in Cologne and ended CCT Season 2 European Series #8 in 9th-16th place.

While 3DMAX beat The MongolZ in July, their performances since then have been underwhelming. Backing the favourites at -181.82 is not a bad option, but Garidmagnai “bLitz” Byambasuren and co. should be able to sweep 3DMAX without many issues.

The post Liquid, SAW & Complexity secure IEM Cologne group stage spots appeared first on Esport Bet.

]]>
The IEM Cologne play-in stage has been full of intense matchups, with Team Liquid, Complexity, and SAW securing their spots in the group stage after thrilling victories.

Liquid demonstrated their resilience and depth by overcoming FURIA 2-1 in a dramatic reverse-sweep, where the new and improved Counter-Strike 2 roster continued their upward spiral.

After dropping their Anubis pick, Liquid found themselves in trouble but bounced back on Nuke.

Key performances from Russel “?Twistzz?” Van Dulken and Roland “?ultimate?” Tomkowiak helped Liquid turn the tide.

The decider on Mirage saw Liquid dominate, with Justin “?jks?” Savage and Keith “?NAF?” Markovic anchoring both ends of the map, allowing Mareks “YEKINDAR” Ga?inskis and ultimate to roam freely.

Liquid’s strong map pool and adaptability carried them to victory, with a final win securing their spot in the top-16.

Complexity also punched their ticket to the group stage with a hard-fought 2-0 victory over Eternal Fire.

After a rough start on Vertigo, Complexity managed a comeback, fueled by a 1vs3 pistol clutch and stellar terrorist-side play from Jonathan “?EliGE?” Jablonowski.

The battle on Dust2 was even more intense, with Complexity and Eternal Fire trading rounds in a messy but entertaining match.

Michael “?Grim?” Wince’s 1vs2 ace clutch was pivotal, and despite some shaky moments, Johnny “?JT?” Theodosiou’s clutch in double overtime secured the win.

SAW became the first team to advance to the group stage from the play-in.

The Portuguese squad triumphed over BIG in a three-map series that culminated in a nail-biting Inferno decider.

After trading each other’s map picks, SAW came back from a deficit on Inferno, with Jo?o “?story?” Vieira’s 1vs2 clutch in the final round sealing the victory.

The win was a significant milestone for veterans Ricardo “?roman?” Oliveira and Christopher “?MUTiRiS?” Fernandes, who credited their younger teammates for the success.

While those three teams have qualified for the main event at IEM Cologne, FlyQuest, 3DMAX and ALTERNATE aTTaX were eliminated from the play-in stage on Thursday after suffering their second loss.

Friday will be the final day of the play-in stage, and the remaining 10 squads will battle it out for the last five places in the main event.

Intel Extreme Masters Cologne is one of the most presitigious Counter-Strike events on the calendar, and the tournament kicked off with the opening day of the play-in stage on Wednesday.

The first day produced some upset results, with The Mongolz and Heroic going down as the esports betting sites’ favourite in their opening best-of-three series.

The Mongolz are on the brink of elimination at IEM Cologne after a 1-2 loss to SAW, faltering on defence.

BIG, on the other hand, managed a comeback victory over FlyQuest after initially blowing a 9-3 lead.

These two winners will face off for a spot in the main event of the tournament.

SAW, energised and well-prepared under new head coach Danny “?BERRY?” Kr��ger, overcame a slow start on Anubis.

They trailed 4-8 on the counter-terrorist side but rallied in the second half, exploiting The MongolZ’s weak B bomb site.

Despite a comeback from The Mongolz forcing overtime, SAW secured a 16-13 win.

After The Mongolz won on Ancient, SAW dominated Dust2, with key contributions from Jo?o ‘story’ Vieira, Michel ‘ewjerkz’ Pinto, and Rafael ‘arrozdoce’ Wing, to win 13-5.

BIG’s match against FlyQuest was similarly dramatic.

After trading 9-3 terrorist halves and forcing overtime, FlyQuest took the lead.

BIG responded by winning on Inferno and dominating Vertigo with a 10-0 start.

FlyQuest attempted a comeback, but BIG held on for a 13-11 victory.

MIBR, under new in-game leader Andr�� “?drop?” Abreu, defeated Heroic 2-1.

Heroic struggled on the defensive side, losing 7-13 on Mirage and Anubis after a strong start on Ancient.

MIBR’s Felipe “?insani?” Yuji and AWPer Rafael “?saffee?” Costa were standout performers.

The next phase will see 3DMAX face Heroic in an elimination match, and 9z Team take on MIBR for a group stage spot.

9z easily defeated 3DMAX 13-3 and 13-4, showcasing star player Franco “?dgt?” Garcia and captain Maximiliano “?max?” Gonzalez.

Eternal Fire is close to securing a spot in the main event after a 2-1 win over Falcons.

The match saw standout performances from Ismailcan “?XANTARES?” D?rtkarde? on Vertigo and ?zg��r “?woxic?” Eker on Dust2, despite some sloppy play from both teams.

Team Liquid and FURIA won their opening matches, defeating paiN Gaming and Imperial, respectively.

Liquid, coming off strong performances at BLAST Premier Fall Groups, overcame paiN with solid terrorist-side efforts on Anubis and Inferno.

FURIA’s Brazilian derby against Imperial saw them recover from a disastrous start on Dust2 to win the series 2-1, highlighted by a 13-0 thrashing on Inferno.

FlyQuest and BIG have enough talent on their rosters to qualify for the IEM Cologne 2024 main event. However, it is tough to pick a winner between these two, and betting on the total maps market looks to be the safest play.

Heroic will have to play at IEM Cologne with Volodymyr “Woro2k” Veletnjuk as a stand-in, which should make this clash against MIBR closer than first expected. Neither team enters this event in great form, so taking the underdog at the match line is the play.

These teams are separated by 84 spots in the ESL world rankings, so it is no surprise that Complexity are -1666.67 favourites. There is no value in head-to-head or match-line betting with esports betting sites, so the round-line market is the value option.

Team Liquid have looked better under the leadership of Russel “Twistzz” Van Dulken, defeating Natus Vincere twice en route to qualifying for the BLAST Premier Fall Final.

The post IEM Cologne 2024 teams battle visa issues appeared first on Esport Bet.

]]>
BetBoom Team will miss IEM Cologne 2024 due to visa issues, ESL has announced.

Filling in for the Russian Counter-Strike 2 team will be 3DMAX, as per the ESL Pro Tour’s Team Replacement Rules.

BetBoom had earned a spot in the play-in stage of IEM Cologne via the ESL World Ranking.

The tournament would have been their first of the season, following their last official match in June at YaLLa Compass.

BetBoom had also planned to attend the Skyesports Championship but withdrew, citing unmet conditions and fairness concerns with the Indian tournament organiser.

3DMAX, who recently won the Skyesports Championship and achieved their peak world rank of 18, will take BetBoom’s spot in the play-in bracket, facing 9z in the first round of the double-elimination stage.

Additionally, Herioc announced that Volodymyr “?Woro2k?” Veletniuk will replace Abdul “?degster?” Gasanov, who also faces visa issues.

Woro2k, known for his time on Monte and their underdog run to the BLAST.tv Paris Major quarter-finals, will join Heroic in their play-in stage match against MIBR.

It’s unclear if degster will miss the entire event as Heroic awaits visa approval, ready to fly him in if circumstances change.

Visa issues have increasingly impacted Russian players in the CS2 scene.

Earlier this year, Team Spirit’s Danil “donk” Kryshkovets and Boris “magixx” Vorobyev missed the BLAST Spring Groups 2024 due to similar problems.

These visa challenges continue to hinder one of the most talented regions in the scene, preventing players from participating in major tournaments.

  • Ren�� “?TeSeS?” Madsen
  • Rasmus “?sjuush?” Beck

G2 Esports secured their spot in the quarterfinals of ESL Pro League Season 19 after a hard-fought 2-1 (13-10, 7-13, 13-6) victory over 3DMAX.

Despite a slow start in the first two maps, G2 rallied in the third, led by Nikola “NiKo” Kova?’s outstanding performance, earning him a series-high 1.30 rating.

Rasmus “HooXi” Nielsen credited NiKo’s improved form to a change in their CT strategy, giving him a more active role in the game.

With this win, G2 advances to face MOUZ in the quarterfinals.

Liquid narrowly avoided a comeback from FlyQuest, winning 2-1 (13-10, 14-16, 13-10).

Despite building significant leads in all three maps, Liquid struggled to close out, with FlyQuest forcing overtime on Anubis.

However, Liquid secured victory on Ancient, setting up a must-watch Counter-Strike series against Astralis.

The upcoming Liquid vs. Astralis match promises intrigue, especially with Casper “cadiaN” M?ller facing his former HEROIC teammates.

Liquid’s shaky form raises questions about their competitiveness against Astralis, who have been in top form since adding Alexander “br0” Bro.

FaZe secured revenge against NAVI, winning 2-0 (13-5, 16-14) after losing to them in the PGL Major Copenhagen finals.

FaZe dominated Nuke and narrowly won Mirage, setting up a quarterfinal clash with Vitality.

FaZe’s Finn “karrigan” Andersen led his team’s dominant performance on Nuke, while Robin “ropz” Kool and H?vard “rain” Nygaard anchored a strong Mirage defense.

Virtus.pro completed the quarterfinal lineup with a thrilling 2-1 (11-13, 13-6, 13-11) victory over TheMongolz.

After trailing on Ancient, Virtus.pro mounted a stunning comeback to win 11-13.

Mirage saw Virtus.pro take an early lead, thanks to Petr “fame” Bolyshev’s inspired play, while TheMongolz fought back but couldn’t overcome their opponent’s dominance.

On Ancient, Virtus.pro faced an 11-2 deficit but staged an incredible comeback to win 16-13, sealing their spot in the quarterfinals.

Despite Virtus.pro’s disorganized start, they showed resilience and determination, as highlighted by David “n0rb3r7” Danielyan’s post-match remarks.

Their thrilling victory sets up a clash against Complexity in the quarterfinals.
