Counter Logic Gaming are the defending champions, and they followed up
by winning this year's Spring Split. CLG finished fourth during the
summer Round Robin at 10-8; however, they went 6-2 over the last four
weeks, and will go into Monday's quarterfinal match with Team Liquid
(9-9) as –175 favorites.



When it comes to the Euro scene, nobody has done better than Fnatic, the
five-time champions. But they were runners-up during the Spring Split,
and they limped into the summer playoffs with a 7-6-5 record, good for
fifth place in the standings. Fnatic will be –110 underdogs in Sunday's
quarterfinal versus H2k-Gaming, who also finished 7-6-5 during the Round
Robin. H2k won the tie-breaker to take fourth place, after Fnatic had
swept their Week 7 matchup 2-0.

E-Sports Odds: The International Keeps Getting Bigger - Handicappers Hideaway

Every year, The International sets a new record. This is by far the
largest E-sports tournament in the world, with a prize pool of $18.7
million (and growing) up for grabs in 2016. The best Dota 2 teams
from around the world will gather at KeyArena in Seattle, starting
August 3 and wrapping up with the Grand Finals on August 13. And the
best of the best, leading the way at +250, is the juggernaut known as
OG.

There isn't a hotter team on the planet right now. OG (hailing from
Europe and captained by Tal “Fly” Aizik) have already won two Dota 2
majors this year, the Manila Major and the ESL One Frankfurt. No other
team has won more than one official Valve Corporation event – Valve
being the developers and publishers of Dota 2.



As usual, Team Liquid are the one team in the 18-team field (including
the four Wild Cards) expected to give OG a serious run for their money.
These European rivals have been at each other's throats all year, with
OG usually getting the better of it. Team Liquid are +400 at press time;
Wings Gaming (+550) and Newbee (+650) are the second-tier contenders.
