BOOM Esports are a bit undervalued both in the match and outright betting markets. They have performed well domestically and internationally, so there is no reason to believe they can’t make a deep run. That’s not to say that Evil Geniuses don’t deserve some recognition, but we still consider BOOM Esports as the superior team.
Moreover, Evil Geniuses are notorious for starting tournaments slow, so while they might compete for the title, we expect them to show a bit less in the opening rounds. This does not mean that BOOM are guaranteed to win, but it helps tip the scale in their favour.
No result would surprise us, but without knowing how the teams will perform on LAN or in what form they’ll arrive in Sweden, a bet on BOOM to win at $3.24 is an easy choice.

TEAM SPIRIT vs TSM Dota 2 BETTING & MATCH DETAILS |

|---|---|
| Best Odds: | Spirit $1.70 | Draw $2.45 at Betway | TSM $8.49 |

Given the lack of cross-regional data, it’s tough to say how this match will go. Obviously, Team Spirit will demand far more respect as the reigning The International champions, but that does not explain why TSM are priced at $8.49.
At the offered Dota 2 betting odds, it’s tough not to take a shot with the underdog, especially considering TSM have been playing well domestically. They won the first Dota Pro Circuit (DPC) Regional Final and finished the second DPC tour with a silver medal.
On LAN, TSM did not show much and failed to make it through the GAMERS GALAXY Invitational Series Dubai 2022 Play-In stage in March. Still, their only defeats came against Nigma Galaxy and Tundra Esports, who were on fire at the event, and Team Spirit, who beat them in a very close match.
Despite what the odds suggest, we expect this to be a very close matchup. A draw is most likely, but at $8.49, it’s impossible not to bet on TSM to cause an upset.
