Esports betting before the first map, from CS 2 to Valorant
Pre-match esports betting covers series priced before the first map is played, in disciplines that run tournaments all year round: CS 2, Dota 2, League of Legends and Valorant, with further games joining whenever their competitions are on. Each tournament forms its own group under a heading that names the discipline together with the event, and the group carries the outcome columns for every series inside it. A particular match is reached from its tournament group or through the search by team name, and a drawn series keeps a column of its own wherever the format allows that result.
A series row answers the first questions at a glance: the winner odds for either side, a handicap in maps with a parameter that can be switched to a neighbouring value, and a total of maps played, next to a link with the remaining outcome types of that series. Statistics, an odds movement chart and team information open from the same row for the two rosters. Under the row, separate rows unfold for each individual map, for special bets tied to that map and for players' stats, and every one of them carries its own outcomes and its own further markets.
The widest choice sits on the page of the series itself. The match winner and the correct score in maps stand beside the total of maps and its handicap, frag handicaps and frag totals cover the whole meeting as well as either team on its own, and combined questions ask about the first map and the match together or whether a team takes at least one map. Below the match-level groups, each map repeats the same families at its own level. Markets are found by name through the search inside the event, a period filter narrows the view, and all groups fold to their headings in one movement.
Esports betting is not confined to the pre-match list: at the first map a series moves under Live and keeps taking bets in play, with its own in-play market set on the live esports page. A settled series is recorded under Results, so an outcome is checked without leaving the site. Selections from any esports market gather in the bet slip and are placed on their own or inside an accumulator together with football, tennis or any other sport. Bets on a series stay open up to its scheduled start, and the start time stands in the row beside the stage of the tournament.
