Esports Betting Online in Simple Terms
Esports is like any other competitive video game played between different teams or individuals. The only difference is that in esports, gamers are competing against each other and not the computer, like in simple video games. This brings esports to the level of traditional sports and, thus, makes it so popular among players and fans. There are various genres in esports with high-level professional players and teams competing in front of numerous fans.
Like any other type of classic sport where an element of competitive gaming is involved, esports made a way for betting opportunities to come forward as well. As a result, esports as an entertainment and the online betting industry continue to grow massively.
Major games like CS2, Dota 2, League of Legends, Valorant, Mobile Legends, StarCraft II, Overwatch, and Rocket League are now globally known. And events such as LoL Worlds or The International showcase the massive scale of the sport, with prize pools and audiences rivaling traditional sports.
All in all, esports has become one of the most popular ways to spend time and engage in it professionally worldwide. Its base of regular viewers has grown tremendously, rising from 170+ million in 2018 to 220 million by 2020. Alongside this growth, the esports betting market has expanded year after year. Valued at $1 billion in 2019, it was expected to surpass $2 billion by 2022.
GG.BET was launched in 2016 as the first bookmaker dedicated entirely to esports. We set the standard for the industry by showing what a betting service for players and fans should be like. This step made our website the industry benchmark and made the brand a leader in esports. This is how we opened up a new direction in online betting, which is now comparable to, and sometimes even more popular than, traditional sports.
Esports Betting Lines at GG.BET
Every day, you will find dozens of matches at GG.BET to place esports bets through. On a typical day, dozens of contests from Dota 2, CS2, League of Legends, Valorant, Mobile Legends, Halo, Rocket League, Mobile Legends, and more fill the schedule.
Our esports bookmaker offers some exclusive and lesser-known esports titles such as NBA 2K, Heroes of the Storm, Hearthstone, Smite, and so on, not available on competitor sites. We offer major global tournaments like BLAST, ESL, Majors, and regional leagues, and also niche competitions that few others cover.
We also feature live betting, which brings even more unique markets. Our live section update odds mid-match. So, when these games stream live, you are watching and wagering at the same time, and there is no need to look for external streams.
Esports Betting Markets
A variety of bets is essential, so that you can combine selections for greater potential returns. That is why at GG.BET, you can find multiple esports betting markets available for nearly every match. Check out the key of them below.
Main Bets (Moneyline, Totals, Spreads)
| Moneyline | This is the simplest bet you will find at GG.BET and the easiest to get started with. All you need to do is choose who you think will win the match and nothing more. Normally, it is a direct “Team A or Team B” decision. |
| Totals | If you have tried betting before, you have likely come across this market since it’s one of the most common in esport betting. The concept is easy: we set a number, and you decide if the outcome will go over or under it. For instance, it can be total maps in a best-of-three. Betting over 2.5 maps means you expect all three to be played. In CS2, betting over 26.5 rounds means you think it will be a tight game. You will also find totals on things like kills in a match or match duration in titles such as Dota or League of Legends. |
| Spreads | Another popular esports bet at GG.BET, that makes things more intriguing when one team is a heavy favorite, as spreads help balance the betting odds and make the experience more exciting. In spread betting, especially in FPS games like Valorant or CS2, you are wagering on maps won. |
Prop Bets
Prop markets are where things get tactical. You can wager on first blood, total maps played, most kills, or niche outcomes like first tower in Mobile Legends or kill streaks. We offer 30+ types of prop outcomes for esports betting online across various titles.
Prop bets allow you to analyze a match at a level of detail that often determines the outcome of the game. Factors such as the aggressive opening style of individual teams, the frequency of certain heroes' peaks, or the map on which a team traditionally dominates are important here. Experienced players use statistics (which we add to each match) on first kills, item timings, and resource distribution to more accurately predict the outcome of specific events. This approach turns prop markets into a strategic gaming tool, where knowledge of META and the community, as well as analytics, give a tangible advantage in forecasting.
Outright Bets
The next option you can use to bet on esports is an outright bet. It allows you to wager on stage champions, tournament winners, seasonal victors, and so on. With outright bets, you can have a long-term view on your betting and back your favorite teams during the whole event. Plus, these bets are more effective for esports betting, especially for international events where prize pools are bigger and there is tight competition.
Latest Esports Odds, Live Streams & Free Statistics
Betting odds are basically numbers that show how likely something is to happen in a match. Think of them as a guide that tells you both the risk of a bet and how much you can win if it goes your way.
Our esports betting odds come from a specialized team of analysts who track every nuance like meta shifts, drafts, and team form, and keep our line sharp and competitive. As such, with GG.BET, you get value and accuracy.
How does this work in reality? Let's say that the odds for the upcoming match are 1.80 for the team to score first and 1.95 for the opposite outcome. To understand how justified the bet is, the bettor converts the odds into probability: 1.80 equals approximately 55.5%, and 1.95 equals approximately 51.3%. Comparing these figures with the team's actual statistics (for example, 62% of first kills in the last 20 maps), we can see “value” — that is, the probability according to statistics is higher than that implied by the line. Such analysis allows decisions to be made not intuitively, but based on real data and mathematics, which is especially important in prop markets.
We also provide high-quality live streams alongside live betting markets. Just watch CS2, Dota 2, Mobile Legends, and more as you wager without switching to any other platform or streaming channel. Complementing this, we provide free match stats, historical data, and analytics so you can place your wagers smarter.
Esports Betting Tips
To make online esports betting more effective, you can take into account some common tips and tricks. These tips help you create a better strategy and get more frequent wins.
- Watch drafts and picks before betting on prop markets, as early game choices often signal the whole match.
- Track meta changes across tiers of play. This is because an underdog picking a strong comp can flip odds.
- Compare odds with strategy. If one side is underrated due to perception, there may be value.
- Have a solid deposit and time limits for your betting experience, and don’t exceed them.
- Use live statistics and real-time data for the current match for more informed wagering decisions.
And more importantly, bet on esports for fun and don’t take it as an easy way to earn money.
