Games Clash Masters 2018 Betting Tips
In this section, we’ll be offering our betting tips for the entire Games Clash Masters 2018 tournament. We will be focusing on the best betting opportunities available and suggesting which bets are the most practical to make.
The Group Stage
Starting with the group stage, we have a number of betting opportunities. We’ll be listing some of the confirmed match ups we believe are smart bets below.
Heroic vs Kinguin – Medium risk bet
The odds for this one will be close, but we think there’s the potential for Heroic to take it. Heroic has beaten Kinguin in the past without breaking much of a sweat. Most recently, Heroic has been pulling wins from teams like Fnatic and North, and they even had a neck and neck game against FaZe, where they lost 16-19 in overtime.
Kinguin, on the other hand, has certainly picked up their game since signing Taz, but their most recent performance is a little lacklustre.
Red Reserve vs x-kom – Low risk bet
It’s great to see more teams fight their way into this event, but we’re not expecting x-kom to come out on top here. Red Reserve is the stronger team on paper by far and their past match up saw Red Reserve win a best of three against x-kom.
HellRaisers vs Sprout – Low risk bet
HellRaisers is one of those tier 2 teams that constantly battles it out with tier 1 teams and sometimes they come out on top. They are one of the most experienced teams in this tournament so their match against Sprout should be an easy betting opportunity.
AGO vs Imperial – High risk bet
We would suggest avoiding this bet because both teams are very equally matched in terms of skill and overall world rankings. Both teams have clashed multiple times and it’s always been back and forth.
The Playoffs
We predict that Heroic and HellRaisers will move forward to the playoffs from group A and Red Reserve and either AGO or Imperial will move forward from group B.
No matter the match ups, we’d suggest betting on HellRaisers in their semifinals match for a medium risk bet. We predict Heroic will win their semifinal game too, but it will be a close one. In the grand final, we’d suggest putting another small bet on HellRaisers.
That wraps up our analysis of Games Clash Masters 2018. Are you looking forward to the event?
