6/12 Recap (with twitter live bets): 2-8 -9.25u Opening days of the season are tough. It is very difficult to know what to take from SK and Vitality’s big upsets in the LEC. It is very difficult to know what to make of all but one of the LEC matchups going under and both theContinue reading “6/13 LEC and LCS Picks”
With Best of 1s, the LEC and LCS have been the toughest leagues to profit on for me in the past. Bettors have to really pick their spots in these two leagues and vary their approaches. In LPL and LCK, I’m profitable on largely moneyline bets alone. In LEC and LCS, there might be twoContinue reading “6/12 LEC and LCS Picks”
We are headed for one of the most wide-open LCS splits in recent memory. Team Liquid’s longtime stronghold on the league was broken in the Spring by an upstart Cloud9. The odds say this is C9’s split to lose. I’m not so sure. There were lots of factors that led to the last split beingContinue reading “LCS Betting Tiers”
When a LoL bettor sits down to outline their strategy for betting futures in the LEC, they should ask themselves two key questions: “What are the odds for G2 to win?” and “What are the odds for FNATIC to make the final?” If you can find anything close to plus money on either of thoseContinue reading “LEC Betting Tiers”

Mostly, because that’s already been done here by Gelati of The Esports Department in great detail (keep in mind this was written on Monday, TeacherMa will be starting for WE) and is worthy ofContinue reading “LPL Week 1 Picks”
Group B and Semi-Finals Recap: 10-5 for +4.175u Group B largely went according to plan for us, outside of Gen.G. IG picked the rarely seen melee range 0-10 Lucian, DragonX should have been favored against IG and Gen. G and showed it, and JDG largely looked like a top 2 team in the world. Gen.Continue reading “Mid Season Cup Final Picks”
Group A Recap: 2-3 for -2.875u Last night was a reminder that in sports betting and sports, you can make solid, analytical, data-driven decisions over a long period of time and can hope that brings long term success. A random Thursday Morning in May though? T1 can decide to play like they’ve never played beforeContinue reading “Mid Season Cup Day 2 Picks”
At first look at the Odds for the Mid-Season Cup, I thought we were in trouble. Here I was, having just started an esports betting blog, a major tournament incoming, and sharp odds with minimal bets I liked. I thought I might be writing an article analyzing 1 or 2 picks. Thankfully, the kill spreadsContinue reading “Mid Season Cup Day 1 Picks”
Riot Games announced the format and schedule for the Mid Season Cup between the top teams from the LPL and LCK this morning. Giving out a single pick to win a tournament is a difficult and kind of crazy thing to do. Especially in a tournament like this where there is a lot of parityContinue reading “The LPL/LCK Mid Season Cup Betting Tiers”
