    The final pair of first-round group games at ESL Pro League Season 20 are set for Wednesday, September 11, when ATOX Esports take on Team Vitality and FURIA Esports meet with Team Falcons. Here, you can find our top Counter-Strike betting tips for the two series, with esports odds courtesy of top bookmakers in United States.


    TEAM VITALITY vs ATOX ESPORTS CS2 BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

    Best Odds: Vitality -10000 at BetOnline | ATOX +1449 at BetOnline

    Watch Live: Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/ESLCS)

    Priced at -10000 with the top Counter-Strike betting sites, Team Vitality are given a 99% implied probability of beating ATOX Esports. The question is not whether Vitality will win, but by how much.

    The Bees are in exceptional form ahead of ESL Pro League Season 20, having won the last two S-Tier tournaments: BLAST Premier Fall Groups 2024 and Intel Extreme Masters Cologne 2024. They were not as potent at the Esports World Cup 2024, where Vitality placed top-eight, but they finished no lower than fourth at the previous ESL Pro League, IEM Dallas 2024 and BLAST Spring Final.

    ATOX Esports are the eighth-ranked Counter-Strike team from Asia, with a massive collection of runner-up finishes from regional events but no medals from international competitions. While this is still a professional side with the advantage of being an unknown opponent for Vitality, the quality gap is significant enough to side with the European roster to cover seven rounds on both maps.

    FURIA ESPORTS vs TEAM FALCONS CS2 BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

    Best Odds: FURIA +100 at BetOnline | Falcons -125 at BetOnline
    When: September 11, 2024 | 13:30 CEST
    Watch Live: Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/ESLCS)

    FURIA Esports found some success before the summer break with a run to the semifinals at YaLLa Compass 2024, and they did not do too poorly at the Esports World Cup 2024. However, they finished 13th-16th at IEM Cologne 2024 and fifth-sixth at BetBoom Dacha Belgrade 2024 #2.

    Team Falcons also had their moment in August, when they won BLAST Premier Fall Showdown 2024, yet only managed seventh-eighth place at BetBoom Dacha Belgrade 2024 #2. Travelling to Malta on a five-game losing streak, Marco “Snappi” Pfeiffer and co. have much to prove; however, they field enough talent to make some noise.

    Quality-wise, there is not much to set these two squads apart, but there is a reason Falcons are priced as favourites. They have a stronger record on five out of seven maps in the rotation, except for Inferno and Nuke. Still, while this is the Falcons’ game to lose, there is a good chance the series will be decided on the third map.

    Both Team Vitality and Team Secret fell to Gen.G in back-to-back matches at the Esports World Cup; however, Vitality was knocked out in the playoffs and Secret didn’t make it out of the group stage. With Vitality attempting to defend their RLCS World Championship crown, expect this to be a statement game early on in the event.

    Gen.G will clash with PWR in the opening round of the Swiss Stage, and they will be confident in winning this clash as they have only dropped one map (3-0 & 3-1) across the two meetings with PWR this season. It is hard to see PWR taking a map off Gen.G, and a 3-0 win looks like a great value play.

    Following top eight finishes at the RLCS Major 1, RLCS Major 2 and the Esports World Cup, FURIA comes into the World Championship with solid form and is expected to make the playoffs in Fort Worth. OG has only won two matches in S-Tier competition this season; therefore, FURIA is the superior team, and they will be winning this clash comfortably.

    Team BDS have experienced a rocky 2024 season, and they are coming off a fifth-eighth finish at the London Major in June. PWR have dominated the Oceania Rocket League scene, winning all six of the Major 2 qualifiers before finishing 9th�C11th in London. At +110 for BDS to win 3-0, it looks to be great value.

    Team Vitality are one of the best Rocket League teams; however, they have only won one event since claiming the RLCS World Championship in 2023. With esports bookmakers offering -111.11 for Vitality to cover the match line against Twisted Minds, they are the best bet of the day.

They will meet Gaimin Gladiators, who come off a 12th�C14th finish at the same event.

    The post Team Vitality claim IEM Cologne 2024 title appeared first on Esport Bet.

    ]]>
    Team Vitality has been crowned champions of IEM Cologne 2024, securing a hard-fought 3-1 (16-14, 10-13, 22-20, 13-9) victory over Natus Vincere (NaVi) in what many are calling one of the finest series of the year.

    For Dan “?apEX?” Madesclaire, the triumph marked the end of a ten-year chase for victory at this prestigious event.

    After falling short in two previous finals, apEX finally lifted the silverware, a dream realised after a decade of close calls.

    “Finally, after three Cologne finals, I’m leaving with the trophy,” apEX said after the match.

    His excitement was well-earned, as the French captain delivered a masterful performance, both tactically and individually, in a series that will be remembered for its high-octane action and razor-thin margins.

    The grand final pitted two of the world’s best Counter-Strike 2 teams against each other in a best-of-five series that didn’t disappoint.

    The first three maps were decided by the narrowest of margins, with Mirage, in particular, standing out as one of the year’s most thrilling games.

    NaVi, fresh off their Esports World Cup victory, came close to bagging back-to-back trophies but fell just short in this epic contest.

    Aleksi “?Aleksib?” Virolainen, NaVi’s in-game leader, once again found himself cursed in grand final series’, extending his record to 0-7 in best-of-five matches.

    Meanwhile, Justinas “?jL?” Lekavicius, who had been a standout at the Copenhagen Major, struggled throughout the series, finishing at the bottom of the leaderboard, a far cry from his usual form.

    The series began on Nuke, where NaVi’s leading MVP candidate, Valeriy “?b1t?” Vakhovskiy, had an uncharacteristically rough start, going 1-11 in the first half.

    Despite a brief resurgence, NaVi couldn’t recover, and Vitality took the map 16�C13.

    On Dust2, NaVi bounced back, with b1t finding his form and leading his team to a narrow victory, but the story of the series was far from over.

    Mirage proved to be the turning point.

    Both teams were riding high on long win streaks on the map, and the match lived up to expectations, going all the way to a 22-20 triple overtime finish.

    ZywOo was the hero for Vitality, delivering crucial plays in overtime that swung the map in his team’s favour.

    By the time the series reached Inferno, the momentum was firmly with Vitality.

    They dominated the early rounds and raced to a 10-2 lead.

    Although NaVi showed resilience and mounted a late comeback, Vitality’s William “?mezii?” Merriman secured a crucial triple kill on the A site, sealing the series with a 13-9 victory and clinching the tournament title.

    For apEX, this victory was especially sweet.

    Having suffered heartbreak in Cologne twice before, once with EnVyUs in 2015 and again with Vitality in 2019, this was his third and final chance to capture the elusive title.

    He didn’t disappoint, leading his team to glory and adding another prestigious trophy to his collection.

    ZywOo also had a standout performance and was awarded with the Most Valuable Player award, finishing with 100 kills across the four maps, a staggering feat that solidified his claim as one of the best CS2 players.

    The difference between him and NaVi’s young AWPer, Ihor “?w0nderful?” Zhdanov, was stark, with ZywOo’s experience and composure shining through in the most critical moments.

    Despite their loss, NaVi can take solace in their successful 2024 campaign, which includes victories at the PGL Major Copenhagen and the Esports World Cup.

    However, their struggles in best-of-five series remain a glaring issue, and Aleksib’s winless streak in such finals will undoubtedly be a point of concern moving forward.

    As the dust settles on IEM Cologne 2024, both teams will shift their focus to the upcoming ESL Pro League season, which starts on September 3.

    With neither team involved in the BLAST Premier Fall Showdown, they will have time to regroup and prepare for the next challenge.

    In the end, this year’s IEM Cologne lived up to the event’s storied reputation.

    The Cathedral of Counter-Strike once again delivered unforgettable moments, with Vitality and NaVi putting on a show that will be remembered for years to come.

    From the knife’s-edge battles of the first three maps to the final triumph on Inferno, IEM Cologne 2024 was Counter-Strike at its finest.

    The first semi-final of IEM Cologne 2024 saw Team Vitality secure their spot in the grand final after a commanding 2-0 victory over Portuguese underdogs SAW.

    Despite entering the Counter-Strike match as favourites, Vitality remained vigilant against SAW, who had earlier taken down top teams like G2 Esports and FaZe Clan in a stunning run.

    Vitality captain Dan “apEX” Madesclaire emphasised their respect for SAW��s performance, saying, “We did not underestimate them, but focused on ourselves, and it paid off.”

    The match kicked off on SAW’s pick, Nuke, where the underdogs managed to stand toe-to-toe with Vitality early on.

    However, after a crucial misstep against pistols, Vitality regained control, eventually turning a 3-5 deficit into a 7-5 half.

    Vitality dominated on their terrorist side, allowing SAW just one more round and taking the map 13-6.

    The momentum carried into Dust2, where Vitality crushed a deflated SAW 13-5, securing their place in the final.

    For SAW, this loss marked the end of their best run in a Big Event, but they can take pride in making their first appearance on such a big stage in Cologne.

    The second semi-final saw Natus Vincere (NaVi) edge out MOUZ in a tightly contested two-map series, extending their unbeaten run on Mirage to 12 wins.

    Despite NaVi’s strong group stage showing, MOUZ made them fight hard for the victory.

    MOUZ��s surprise pick of Inferno caught NaVi off guard, but NaVi managed to rally, winning crucial clutches to take the map 13-11.

    On Mirage, MOUZ initially dominated, with Dorian “xertioN” Berman leading the charge with an 18-5 K/D and 152 ADR in the first half.

    However, NaVi’s resilience, bolstered by clutch plays from Justinas “jL” Lekavicius and Ihor “w0nderful” Zhdanov, allowed them to claw back and win 16-13, securing their spot in the final.

    Aleksi “Aleksib” Virolainen, NaVi’s captain, acknowledged that they need to improve their terrorist-side play if they want to defeat Vitality in the upcoming best-of-five grand final.

    The match promises to be a high-stakes showdown between two of the world��s top teams, with NaVi looking to continue their dominant form and Vitality eager to claim their first trophy of 2024.

    ]]>
    The final day of the IEM Cologne group stage was marked by intense battles and unexpected comebacks, with FaZe Clan and Team Liquid capturing the spotlight in a thrilling rematch.

    Both teams secured their spots in the Group B lower bracket final after decisive 2-0 victories in the Counter-Strike 2 event.

    FaZe dominated Falcons and Liquid bested Complexity, setting up a high-stakes clash later in the day for a place in the playoffs.

    Liquid’s choice to play Ancient, a map they had only recently added to their map pool, proved risky yet effective.

    Despite Roland “?ultimate?” Tomkowiak having a quiet start, Liquid’s riflers, including Keith “?NAF?” Markovic and Russel “?Twistzz?” Van Dulken, stepped up to secure a close win on the first map.

    Mareks “?YEKINDAR?” Ga?inskis made key plays on the counter-terrorist side, helping Liquid maintain their momentum.

    The second map, Anubis, saw Liquid dominate with strong counter-terrorist tactics and a resurgent ultimate, who delivered an ace to regain his confidence.

    Liquid won six straight rounds in the second half to quickly wrap up the series with a 13-5 win.

    FaZe entered their match against Falcons as heavy favorites with esports betting sites, and they lived up to expectations.

    Dust2 began with an 8-0 streak, with H?vard “?rain?” Nygaard dismantling the Falcons’ offense.

    Although Falcons managed to force overtime, FaZe’s superior firepower and strategic adjustments secured a 16-13 win.

    The second map, Ancient, saw a back-and-forth battle, but FaZe’s momentum from a crucial pistol round propelled them to victory, sealing their spot in the lower bracket final.

    The rematch between FaZe and Liquid was nothing short of epic.

    FaZe had narrowly defeated Liquid in their group opener, but this time, the stakes were even higher, with a spot in the playoffs on the line.

    Liquid picked Inferno instead of Mirage, hoping for a better outcome, but FaZe’s David “?frozen?” ?er��ansky dominated the B-site, helping FaZe secure a 13-9 win.

    Nuke was more competitive, with Liquid pushing the game into overtime before FaZe’s defence, led by frozen, halted several of their advances.

    Liquid eventually broke through the strong defences, securing the map with a 16-13 scoreline to send the series to a deciding map.

    The decider on Mirage seemed destined for a Liquid victory as they stormed to an 11-1 lead, leaving FaZe on the brink of elimination.

    However, in one of the greatest comebacks in CS2 history, FaZe clawed their way back from a 3-12 deficit.

    A flawless defence from ?rain? and Robin “?ropz?” Kool shut down Liquid’s attacks, forcing the match into overtime.

    FaZe completed their miraculous comeback, winning nine consecutive rounds to secure a spot in the playoffs.

    In Group A, G2 Esports made a statement by crushing paiN Gaming 2-0 (13-6, 13-1) in a one-sided series, securing their playoff spot.

    Nikola “?NiKo?” Kova? and new addition Mario “?malbsMd?” Samayoa led the charge, with G2 delivering a string of dominant victories through the lower bracket.

    Natus Vincere, after a sluggish start against SAW, found their form on Ancient and Inferno, securing a 2-1 (9-13, 13-2, 13-6) win and a direct path to the semi-finals.

    Meanwhile, Team Vitality overcame MOUZ 2-0 (13-6, 16-13) in a tough upper bracket final, avoiding a quarter-final matchup against the in-form G2.

    The third day of the IEM Cologne 2024 group stage featured six matches, with four more teams eliminated and another two advancing to the playoffs.

    Team Vitality and MOUZ locked in their playoff spots for the Counter-Strike 2 tournament with wins over FaZe Clan and Complexity in their respective upper bracket semi-finals in Group B.

    Vitality and FaZe played out a hard-fought three-map series, with the former taking the series 2-1 (8-13, 16-12, 13-9), even though their star player, Mathieu “ZywOo” Herbaut, had little influence on the clash.

    FaZe picked Inferno for the first map, and with strong performances from key players like Robin “ropz” Kool and H?vard “rain” Nygaard, they took an early lead in the series with a 13-8 victory.

    Although Vitality was forced into overtime on their map pick of Dust2, Shahar “flameZ” Shushan stepped up and carried the world number four to a 16-12 win, forcing a decider on Anubis.

    The squads couldn’t be separated at halftime, locked at 6-6, before heading into the final half of the match.

    However, Vitality, led by flameZ again, would win seven of the final 10 rounds on their terrorist side to close out the map and series, 13-9.

    On the other side of the bracket, MOUZ took care of Complexity 2-0 (13-9, 13-11), with Jimi “Jimpphat” Salo, Ludvig “Brollan” Brolin, and ��d��m “torzsi” Torzs��s dominating for the world number three.

    Torzsi, who led the way on Vertigo, recorded a server-high rating (1.39) and kills (19) to power MOUZ to a 13-9 win on Complexity’s map pick.

    MOUZ picked Nuke, and even though it was much closer than the opening map, Brollan (1.54 rating) and Jimpphat (1.47 rating) led the way in a hard-fought 13-11 victory.

    MOUZ will face Vitality in the Group B upper bracket final, with the winner locking in a semi-final spot and the loser having to settle for a quarter-final berth.

    Earlier in the day, FURIA and Virtus.pro were eliminated from the IEM Cologne after suffering their second defeat of the group stage.

    FURIA’s second straight 0-2 loss, this time against Team Liquid, ended their disappointing campaign in Cologne, while VP was knocked out by Falcons in a back-and-forth three-map series.

    Finally, The Mongolz and Astralis had their runs ended by paiN Gaming and G2 Esports, respectively, in the lower bracket of Group A.

    G2 continued their IEM Cologne resurgence with a 2-1 (13-1, 13-10, 13-3) victory, where the world number four dominated their Danish opponents on two of the three maps.

    The Mongolz suffered a similar fate to their upper bracket loss on Sunday, as they claimed the opening map before losing the next two, going down 1-2 (13-16, 13-10, 13-8) against paiN.

    The final day of the group stage will take place on Wednesday, with the final two teams locking in their spots to compete in the LANXESS Arena.

    Wednesday’s IEM Cologne fixtures

    • Falcons (+175) vs FaZe Clan (-250) @ 1:30pm CEST

    The final day of the VALORANT Champions group stage delivered thrilling matches, as Leviat��n and EDward Gaming secured their spots in the playoffs, while Team Vitality and Paper Rex saw their seasons come to an end.

    Leviat��n faced off against Team Vitality in the Group C decider match, with both teams having suffered 2-1 losses to Trace Esports and secured 2-0 wins over Talon Esports.

    Leviat��n, aiming for their first international VALORANT tournament playoff berth since Champions 2022, showed determination from the start.

    Their pick of Icebox was a closely contested battle, with Leviat��n edging out a 7-5 lead at the half.

    Vitality’s efforts, led by standout performances from Saif “Sayf” Jibraeel and Nikita “trexx” Cherednichenko, brought them to a 12-10 lead.

    However, Leviat��n, driven by Francisco “kiNgg” Alberto Aravena and Erick “aspas” Santos, rallied to take the map 14�C12 in overtime.

    kiNgg led the scoreboard with 22 kills and a 229 average combat score (ACS), while trexx delivered 22 kills and 225 ACS for Vitality.

    Sunset was a different story, with Leviat��n dominating from the start.

    A 10-2 first half, bolstered by strong defensive setups and individual plays from Corbin “C0M” Daniel Lee and aspas, set the tone.

    Vitality managed to win the second pistol round, but Leviat��n quickly closed out the map 13-4, securing a 2-0 series victory.

    Roberto “Mazino” Francisco Rivas Bugue?o topped the ratings on Sunset with a 1.45 rating, 169 ADR, and 15 kills, while C0M followed closely with a 1.43 rating and 16 kills.

    When asked about their upcoming playoff opponent, C0M confidently stated, “Give us anyone. We’ll beat them.”

    Leviat��n will look to back up this bold claim when the playoffs begin on August 14 and they clash with G2 Esports.

    In a dramatic clash, EDward Gaming (EDG) overcame Paper Rex 2-1 to secure their place in the playoffs, marking their fourth consecutive appearance in the knockout stage since China’s inclusion in the VALORANT Champions Tour circuit.

    This match was the sixth time these two squads faced off, with Paper Rex having won four of the previous five encounters.

    The series began on Icebox, where Paper Rex started strong, taking the first map 13-3, thanks to an outstanding performance from Jason “f0rsakeN” Susanto, who recorded a massive 1.76 rating and 235 ADR.

    However, EDG adjusted swiftly on Sunset, rallying to a 13-8 victory thanks to impressive performances from Wang “nobody” Senxu and Zhang “Smoggy” Zhao, who combined for 34 kills and over 300 ADR.

    The decider map, Lotus, saw EDG take control early, punishing Paper Rex’s defensive mistakes and securing a commanding 9-3 lead at halftime.

    Despite a brief resurgence from Paper Rex, EDG closed out the map 13-4, sending Paper Rex home and advancing to the playoffs.

    Wan “CHICHOO” Shunzhi, reflecting on the victory, noted their ability to quickly adapt after the first map.

    “We’ve played Paper Rex so many times that we were able to fix our mistakes on the last two maps,” he said.

    Despite expressing a desire to avoid facing fellow Chinese squad Trace Esports, EDward Gaming will now face them in the playoffs.

    Talon Esports started their VALORANT Champions 2024 campaign with a 0-2 loss against one of the tournament favourites, Leviatan. Team Vitality were just as unsuccessful, albeit against one of the tournament underdogs, Trace Esports, who bested EMEA��s second seed 2-1.

    There is not much to separate the two sides based on their first-round performances, although looking at the season stats, Team Vitality are the better squad. Jok��bas “ceNder” Labutis and co. were, however, a bit inconsistent in the second stage of VCT 2024 EMEA, dropping maps even against lesser opposition.

    Vitality��s inconsistency should open opportunities for Talon Esports to do some damage. And while expecting the fourth seed from VCT Pacific to win is a bit too optimistic, this has the potential to be a close affair.

    FUT Esports slipped up against EDward Gaming in the opening match of Group D. On the other side, Paper Rex proved to be no match against the young G2 Esports roster, who bested VALORANT Champions 2023 runners-up in one clean swoop.

    The VCT 2024 Pacific Stage 1 champions are priced as favourites for this affair, which is not shocking considering this is a very experienced roster. But Paper Rex��s results leading into VALORANT Champions 2024 are very similar to that of FUT Esports.

    Paper Rex have a better win rate on Sunset and marginally on Lotus, whereas FUT Esports are more efficient on Split and Ascent. At best, VALORANT betting sites should price this series closer to even money, so we will gladly side with the underdogs.
