The Danish AWPer will be substituting Sebastian “larsen” Larsen, who was benched this past?month, and will be rejoining with three of his previous CS: GO colleagues from his initial time with Tricked. These former teammates include Andreas “kiR” Kirstein, Oliver “kwezz” Rasmussen, and Mathias “PR1mE” Carlsen. During his time with Tricked, which lasted from January 2020 to August 2021, Lucky participated in more than 250 different maps and contributed to the team’s success in various Danish domestic competitions.

However, the 19-year-old was unable to reproduce the same level of individual prowess while playing for Astralis. As a result, he ended up playing as an underdog,?rather than serving as the front runner?for the team across all maps. During the time that he was playing under Lukas “gla1ve” Rossander, Lucky competed in a number of notable tournaments, including the PGL Stockholm Major and the BLAST Premier World Final in 2021, as well as the IEM Katowice in February 2022. According to HLTV, during his time with Astralis, he maintained a rating of 0.95 on average.

Lucky was benched after IEM Katowice to?make room in the Astralis?roster for the incoming sharpshooter Asger “farlig” Jensen. In May, the 19-year-old player was allowed to become a free agent, and after a few weeks, he signed a contract to return to Tricked.

Commenting on the move, Lucky confessed that it was a relief to return to a stable and familiar environment.

“After being in a place where it was very turbulent and at times chaotic with many replacements on the team, it’s very nice to be back in a place where you know you feel at home and where you know how things work,” he said.

Tricked’s Chief Executive Officer,?Morten Jensen, admitted that the team lacked some of Lucky’s skills and potency after his departure, and he is excited to be reconnecting with the talented Danish AWPer.

Tomorrow at 11am Central Time, Lucky will compete once more under the Tricked name in the $50,000 online event Elisa Invitational Spring. The match will be played versus EC Kyiv.?

Both Tricked and Astralis mutually agreed to not make public the money value?of the transfer.

?MnM Gaming and Riddle Esports will clash on Tuesday for the second time this season and the first time since January 21, when Riddle won with a massive 11.3k gold lead and 16-7 in kills. These teams have since played four games each and lost all of them.

This is a match between two of the worst-performing teams in the Northern League of Legends Championship (NLC). While it may seem reasonable to see MnM priced as underdogs, they’re not much worse than Jake “Stxrm” Camilleri and his crew. We would go even so far as to say MnM are playing better than Riddle, who are averaging by far the worst K/D (0.49) in the league.

The latest League of Legends betting odds seem to overvalue the result of the first head-to-head meeting. Anything above even money is good enough for us to side with MnM.

Team Singularity enter this match on a three-game winning streak and a 5-1 record that includes only one loss, which came against NLC 2020 Summer champions Fnatic Rising. Barrage Esports have been slightly less successful with two losses in six outings, one of which was against Singularity back in January.

Singularity won that match with an 8k gold lead and 20-7 in kills, largely thanks to their superior draft (Aphelios versus dive-heavy composition), so perhaps we should take that result with a grain of salt. That said, Singularity field the strongest bottom-lane duo in the league in Fayez “Dragdar” Ahmed and Tom “Prosfair” Willis, who are averaging 14.2 and 10.67 KDA respectively.

Dragdar and Prosfair did not play in Singularity’s loss against Fnatic Rising, which says a lot about how much stronger Singularity are with them on the Rift. There is no news suggesting either of the two will miss this match, so we have to favour Singularity to secure their second head-to-head victory on Tuesday.

Tricked Esports crushed Nordavind in their first meeting of the season and then went on to pick up three more wins against GODSENT, Granit Gaming and Dusty. Noradvind did not look too shabby during that stretch either, beating GODSENT and handing BT Excel their first loss of the season on Thursday.

Noradvind looked very solid in their match with BT Excel. While it was not like one player was doing all the heavy lifting for the Norwegian squad, ADC Lars “Chrisberg” Christiansen was the clear standout that day with 8/2/2.

Noradvind’s upset win doesn’t mean much in the greater picture, but it holds far more value if we consider Tricked haven’t looked too sharp of late. Some esports bookmakers are offering +6.5 kills on Nordavind at around [rm
-125, which is a good bet, but we will take a shot with the underdogs on the moneyline market.

TEAM SECRET vs TRICKED ESPORT CS:GO BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

TEAM SECRET vs TRICKED ESPORT ESEA SEASON 34 PLAYOFFS BETTING PREVIEW

Team Secret will clash with Tricked Esports for the first time in their history this Tuesday in the upper bracket finals of ESEA Season 34: Advanced Division – Europe.

Secert have endured quite a turbulent period over the last couple of months. They benched Rigon “rigoN” Gashi in January and then replaced with Martin “PERCY” Wessel in April. More roster changes followed with Filip “tudsoN” Tudev and Flatron “juanflatroo” Halimi leaving and Danni “smF” Dyg coming at the start of this month. Secret have only four members on their active roster, meaning Haakon “Ratification” Tholo will continue as a stand-in for the time being.

Nevertheless, Team Secret ended the ESEA S34 regular season at the top of the table with a 13-3 record and 239-156 map differential. They succeeded in extending their supremacy into the playoffs, where they took down Tikitakan (2-0), LDLC (2-1) and sAw (2-1) to book a spot in the upper bracket finals.

Guy “anarkez” Trachtman has put up the highest marks in the competition with a 1.27 average rating, followed by Dionis “sinnopsyy” Budeci (1.10) and Ratification (1.05). The recently acquired smF is going at 1.00, whereas in-game leader PERCY is averaging 0.93 but gets some slack as captain of the side.

On the other side of the battlefield we see Tricked Esports, who have been performing well throughout ESEA Season 34. While they finished tied with five other teams at 12-4, their strong 242-151 round differential saw them enter the playoffs as the second seed. Tricked carried that form into the knockout rounds, beating CR4ZY (2-0), Sengal Esports (2-1) and Ambush Esports (2-0) to secure a ticket for the upper bracket finals.

Tricked rebuilt their entire roster in January with the acquisition of Andreas “kiR” Kirstein, Oliver “kwezz” Rasmussen, Philip “Lucky” Ewald, Magnus “Toft” Toft and Nicolai “torben” Amorim. The Danes have made only one change since then, dumping torben in favour of Dennis “sycrone” Nielsen in May.

Even though most of Tricked’s new roster is assembled from unknown talent, sycrone and his crew have impressed. The team’s average player rating sits at 1.186, while kwezz (1.37) and Toft (1.24) are two of the best-performing players in the competition.

Kwezz finished the bout against Ambush with an outstanding 1.52 rating and Toft clocked in at 1.30, which suggests Team Secret will have their hands full with the Danish duo this Tuesday.

While it would be fair to say Team Secret boast more individual quality across the board, Tricked Esports have shown much better form throughout the season.

As long as kwezz and Toft can continue playing at the level they have shown up to now, Tricked should pick up their first title since they won DreamHack Open Winter 2019: European Qualifier last October their old (now MAD Lions) roster.

Both Team Secret and Tricked attended the cs_summit 6 Online: Europe Open Qualifier in June, where the former managed a far better placement (sixth) than the latter’s 17th-32nd finish. Nevertheless, those results came a month ago and it’s clear that Tricked have shown a lot more quality since.

This won’t be an easy match to call, but we feel like CS:GO betting sites are overestimating the strength of Team Secret. They might still come out ahead as victors, but it’s very unlikely they will manage a clean sweep. Whichever side wins, you can expect this one to go the distance.

AMBUSH ESPORT vs TRICKED ESPORT CS:GO BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

AMBUSH ESPORT vs TRICKED ESPORT ESEA SEASON 34 PLAYOFFS BETTING PREVIEW

Ambush Esport and Tricked Esport will lock horns in the third round of the ESEA Season 34: Advanced Division – Europe playoffs, where one of the two Danish rivals will move directly to the upper bracket finals and take one step closer to promotion.

Tricked played well in the regular season and finished in second place with a 12-4 record, which put them only one win shy of Team Secret at the top of the table. Their most recent results, however, have left a lot to be desired.

Of their last 10 games in all competitions, Tricked won only five. While they beat 9INE (16-0), LDLC (16-8), Ambush (16-8), CR4ZY (2-0) and Sangal (2-1), they lost to Adaptation (16-19), Ambush (8-16), Orgles5 (9-16), Lyngby Vikings (17-19) and KOVA (8-16).

There is no hiding that Tricked are not as strong as they were back in 2019, when they sold their entire team to MAD Lions. The new roster features four unknown youngsters and Dennis “sycrone” Nielsen, who replaced Nicolai “torben” Amorim as in-game leader in May.

Even though Tricked no longer field a top-20 roster, there is reason for optimism. With an average age of just 20, there is a lot of room for growth in this squad. Teenaged rifler Oliver “kwezz” Rasmussen is already showing solid numbers (1.15 rating), so the future looks bright for Tricked.

Ambush Esport were among six teams to finish the ESEA S34 regular season with a 12-4 record. But whereas Tricked ended up in second place based on the number of rounds won and lost in regulation time, their fellow Danes had to settle for sixth under the league’s tiebreaker rules.

Ambush had a relatively easy time through the first two rounds of the playoffs. They defeat The Dice (2-0) and were awarded a forfeit win against Apeks, whereas Tricked had play CR4ZY and Sangal.

Apart from their appearances at ESEA, Ambush took a swing at the Cyber.Bet Summer Cup, where finished only fifth-sixth after losing to Illuminar (0-2) and FATE (1-2). They are also involved in QIWI Teamplay Season 5, where they won their group stage fixtures against 1win (2-1) and ESPADA (2-1) to book a spot in the playoffs.

AMBUSH ESPORT vs TRICKED ESPORT ESEA SEASON 34 PLAYOFFS BETTING PREDICTIONS

These teams have met twice in the last 30 days. Ambush won 16-8 at the cs_summer 6 qualifiers, but Tricked squared the ledger exactly with a 16-8 of their own in the ESEA S34 regular season last month.

Neither team are in great form and while Tricked’s 25% win rate across the past three months is not too inspiring, the young Danish squad have shown some promise in recent weeks. They also defeated Ambush not long ago, which suggests the underdogs should at least put up a fight here.

Ambush looked far better throughout June and deserve their favouritism on form, but we find it hard to believe this will be a straightforward win for them. This is an online match between two inexperienced squads who will most likely win their respective map picks, so the overs on the 2.5 line makes the most sense.
