What to analyse

  1. Match format: Bo1 is more random; Bo3 and Bo5 favour the stronger team.
  2. Recent form: look at the last 5–10 matches, not old reputation.
  3. Meta and patch changes: game updates can shift the strength of heroes or weapons.
  4. Roster changes: new players or stand-ins can disrupt teamwork.

Esports betting tips

  • Focus on one or two games you understand.
  • Be careful with low-tier matches that have little information.
  • Set a budget per tournament, not per match.
