Details
With no external match data available we adopt a conservative estimate. The current moneyline prices imply a market leaning toward Falcons (home) at 1.457 and Tundra (away) at 2.73. We estimate Tundra's true win probability at 37.5% (0.375) based on the likelihood of market overpricing heavy favorites in Dota 2 best-of series, higher variance in international tournaments, and the absence of venue/home-edge effects in most esports. At that probability the fair decimal odds are 2.667, while the offered price of 2.73 represents positive expected value. Given the limited information, this is a small, conservative edge rather than a confident market beat.
Key factors
- • Market likely overvalues clear favorites in high-variance Dota 2 matches
- • No home/venue advantage information; esports often neutralizes 'home' edge
- • High uncertainty due to lack of roster/patch/form data increases variance
