Contest stats: 41% for Titan's win

13-3-2014 12:11

While we wait for EMS One Katowice to start, we wanted to take a look at how our users predicted the outcome via our contests in the past few days. According to 41% of entries, Titan are favored to win the $100,000 cheque, while their star player Richard "shox" Papillon will be the top fragger. Kenny "kennyS" Schrub got the most votes in the top awper contest.

With one hour to go until the first matches start, there's still time to enter into all of our contests based on EMS One Katowice:

Dreamteam (SteelSeries 9H, 2x SteelSeries Apex, 3x SteelSeries Rival, 5x SteelSeries QcK+)
Guess the winner (AWP Asiimov + SteelSeries QcK+ CS:GO mousepad)
Guess the top fragger (AK47 Redline + ROCCAT Ryos MK Glow + 25euro bonus at eSportsventure)
Guess the top awper (AWP Redline + ROCCAT Ryos MK Glow + 25euro bonus at eSportsventure)
Betting contest (3x 20euro bonus at eSportsventure)

While we wait, we took a look at the entries so far to see what our are betting on, and it turns out Titan are heavy favorites for the title with 41% of votes. NiP are second with 28%, while the only other team with a notable percentage are Virtus.pro, with 14% betting on the home team to win it all.

Only 3% expect DreamHack Winter champions to repeat their success, but a lot more (10%) expect to see the Swedes in the final on the losing side.

The most expected final match up is ofcourse between NiP and Titan (33%), while the second most popular final among the entries is Titan vs. Virtus.pro (10%).

In our "Guess the top fragger" contest, Richard "shox" Papillon edges out Christopher "GeT_RiGhT" Alesund with both receiving around 26% of the votes.

Clan-Mystik, who almost no one predicts will win the tournament, are still expected to have the top awper in Kenny "kennyS" Schrub.

If you still haven't put your guess in, there's still time so head over to our contests linked above!
