June 3 marks the start of the season's main tournament — BLAST.tv Austin Major 2025, and with it comes an intense day of tier-1 stage gameplay. We've analyzed map pools, current form, win rates, and context (substitutions, relocations, match series) to highlight the 5 best bets for the tournament's first day.

OG to Defeat Complexity (1.90)

Complexity has a roster change, while OG approaches the match in good form: 4 wins in their last 5 matches, including victories over 9INE and Astrum. OG doesn't fall short on win rates on any map (Nuke 79%, Inferno 58%, Anubis 75%). BO1 + Complexity's substitution suggests a confident win for OG.

B8 to Defeat Imperial (1.65)

B8 is on the rise: a 5-win streak, including a clean victory over SINNERS and a solid performance against BIG, along with a bootcamp before the tournament. Imperial is unstable, having lost to Partizan and BetBoom. B8 should have no issues, so we expect their victory.

NRG to Defeat TYLOO (1.92)

At first glance, it seems risky — TYLOO is on an 8-win streak. But context is key: NRG is playing at home, and TYLOO might face jet lag issues after the flight. Also, TYLOO has a weak Ancient (47%) and an unstable Dust2, while NRG boasts 86% wins on Dust2 and a strong Train (62%).

BetBoom to Defeat Nemiga (1.65)

BetBoom has already beaten Nemiga twice in 2025; they have a better structure and map pool for BO1. Despite some instability, BetBoom has a strong Anubis (73%) and Train (78%), where Nemiga struggles (55% and 36%). The head-to-head record is also in their favor — 6 wins out of 10.

Wildcard to Defeat Metizport (1.80)

Wildcard has defeated higher-class teams and played at a higher level than Metizport. The BO1 format is comfortable for Wildcard, and they should face no problems. There might also be a jet lag issue for Metizport, which could affect their performance.

Remember to approach betting wisely: bets should be well-reasoned, not emotional. And remember: the winner isn't the one who knows all the odds, but the one who can interpret them correctly.
