NEON Esports vs. Team Black Preview & Prediction - Free Dota 2 Betting Picks 8/3

NEON Esports and Team Black will face each other in Group B of the Moon Studio Asia League. There are twelve teams competing for a $45,000 prize pool. The twelve teams form two groups of six teams each and all matches are single-stage round-robin format. The bottom two teams from the group stage will be eliminated.

NEON Esports is one of the best Dota 2 teams in the Southeast Asian region. However, the team has not always been able to put up consistent results in the recent weeks. The team is 1-2-0 in the group and are placed second just behind Execration. NEON won against EHOME.International and tied games with Ares Gaming and Execration.

Team Black is 1-1-0 and is currently placed third in the scene. Team Black started off strong in the tournament with a 2-0 victory over TNC Predator. The team’s performance continues to impress, especially after a 1-1 tie against Execration.

Pick: Team Black Handicap +0.5 Games (-174 @ Pinnacle)

While NEON is the bigger name and the favorite in this tournament, Dota 2 bettors should understand that this series is a best of two series. The two teams have been exceptionally strong and Team Black has been a pleasant surprise so far. I am taking Team Black to win a +0.5 handicap bet against NEON Esports.
