Joco Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 Hey guys,Since esport is getting some love on these forums too I have decided to share my predictions with you for the upcoming CS:GO Blast Pro Series Event. I'm also going to include some betting tips next to each matches. Follow them at your own risk.As always for the outright winner world #1 team Astralis is the favorite (@1.60 on Unibet).Round 1 (Today 23:00 CET):Astralis vs Cloud9 - Astralis is the favorite but C9 has the potential for an upset. A decent bet would be with handicap looks very good since the map is Inferno which favors both teams.Cloud9 +8.5 @1.73 on UnibetMIBR vs Natus Vincere - While Na'Vi has been on the rise, MIBR has fallen (no pun intended) to their all time lowest.Natus Vincere -3.5 @1.90 on UnibetTeam Liquid vs FaZe Clan - While Liquid is clearly ahead both teams are still in the phase of rebuilding. Expect a close match. I predict a draw (@11.00 on Unibet) but for a safer bet:Faze Clan +4.5 @1.95 on Unibet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreedoM Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 Idk if Cloud9 could really do an upset with this current lineup. I do see MIBR beating NAVI and FaZe drawing with Liquid. Either way, the fact that they play 3 matches at the same time it's purely annoying to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joco Posted April 12, 2019 Author Share Posted April 12, 2019 Round 2 (Tomorrow Approx. 0:30 CET):Astralis vs Natus Vincere - Na'Vi and Team Liquid are the closest to potentially upset Astralis. After their recent victory at StarSeries (where Astralis wasn't participating) I expect Na'Vi to win this game on Inferno.Natus Vincere @3.85 on UnibetCloud9 vs Team Liquid - Liquid should take this match easily. Even the map choice favors them. Both of these teams are playing at "home". So expect a decent brawl.Team Liquid -5.5 @1.95 on UnibetFaZe Clan vs MIBR - While MIBR might have improved since their 0-10 run at the previous Blast Pro event they are still in need of some kind of mental change if they want to compete.FaZe Clan @1.80 on Unibet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I put Astralis as the winner but C9 should be good enough to get at least 8 rounds which is why the handi bet.And yeah the format is horrible. Bo1s and straight into final after round robin and only the final is bo3. Hopefully they improve it in the future events. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joco Posted April 14, 2019 Author Share Posted April 14, 2019 Unexpectedly after their day 1 performance FaZe Clan ended up winning the event after taking down Team Liquid in the final in a convincing fashion (2-0).Another noteworthy thing about this event is that Astralis didn't show up for day 2 at all. They went 0-3 and as a consequence gotten themself eliminated. But cannot read too much into this as it may have been just an "off-day" for the danish powerhouse.
