The StarLadder Berlin Major 2019 Championship Starts in Less Than 10 Days
Reading Time: 4 minutes
There are a plethora of annual events that every eSports fan eagerly anticipates, and we are sure that you are familiar with the majority of them. In case you still haven’t heard about this one, we are here to bring the news! Something big is coming your way in just 10 days, and it’s beyond exciting!
Brace yourselves, for the StarLadder Berlin Major 2019 championship which starts on August 23rd! One of the biggest CS:GO championships is bound to make gamers and eSports fans waiting to place their bets, put everything else aside, and enjoy the event!
The Prize Pool
The StarLadder Berlin Major 2019 championship winner is looking at half a million dollars in prize money, out of a purse of $1M total! You can bet that all teams would be extremely motivated to defeat the competition! Better yet, you can place your actual bets, but in order to do it the right way, you should probably get familiar with the favorites this year.
The StarLadder Berlin Major Teams
When it comes to the teams, taking part in this championship, we have to start by presenting the ones that managed to qualify for a Major event for the first time! All five new teams would stop at nothing to perform better than their rivals, regardless of the strong competition. Of course, opinions on these teams’ chances to win vary, but there are many moments in history when teams with fewer chances have turned the tables on everyone against all odds. This is one of the best things about eSports in general, and we’re likely to see some quality action and odds-defying feats!
CR4ZY, Syman Gaming, INTZ, DreamEaters, and forZe were all able to qualify for the StarLadder Berlin Major 2019 championship, which means that we get to witness more action than usual! Betting will be unusually exciting as well.
The Underdogs
CR4ZY was formerly known as Valiance & Co. and almost all of the players in its current composition are from Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina. However, the organization is officially under the German flag. The team has quite a history and they can brag with a lot of 1st places in different events and tournaments since 2017 when they began competing in CS:GO tournaments.
The Counter-Strike team at the Brazilian INTZ eSports will compete at StarLadder Berlin Major 2019 as well. The Brazilian organization has been around since 2015, and most eSports fans are probably familiar with their participation in numerous other championships like DOTA 2, FIFA, League of Legends, etc., but CR4ZY still has a better chance to win, according to multiple opinions on this topic. Needless to say, everything could change during the event, but this is what makes it interesting, right?
Syman Gaming is an organization based in Russia, but most of the players come from Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan. The team name has been known in the eSports world since 2017, and we expect them to show some skills, despite the fact that they are kind of underrated as well. There is nothing quite like a surprise turn of events!
The Russian organization called DreamEaters is mostly known for their participation in numerous Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and Rainbow Six tournaments, meaning that they might actually have a good chance to be on top of the other teams, but we are yet to see how they perform during this eSports event.
Last but not least: forZe is another Russian team whose history goes a couple of years back when it comes to CS:GO-related activities and events.
The Favorites
Needless to say, the championship favorites Astralis and Liquid would not give up without putting up a fight. These are probably the two most recognizable names among CS:GO fans, and there is a good reason for that. Liquid’s winning spree in the past few months says a lot – they won most of the tournaments they took part in, both in the U.S and in Europe.
Bottom line is: if you have already decided to place some bets, prior to having fun while watching the epic matches, you definitely need to make a lot of decisions. This is considering that six new qualifiers are going to compete in the StarLadder Berlin Major 2019, and they are more or less equally matched, not to mention eager to stand against the favorites.
You can literally expect the unexpected here, which is the main source of excitement! We believe that all the fans keen on eSports betting feel the same way about the second Major championship this year. You simply can’t miss your chance to do some CS:GO betting, and what better way to do so than doing it via BUFF.bet’s outrights.
Keep your fingers crossed and enjoy the show! StarLadder Berlin Major 2019 is almost here.

The broadcasts will be available on GGPoker.tv, the brand’s official YouTube channel, and will feature the debut of poker legend Phil Hellmuth as a live GGPoker.tv broadcast host.
The first broadcast, on September 23, will showcase the high-stakes drama from the final table of the $5,000 WSOP Online Main Event, arguably online poker’s most important annual tournament. This landmark event will be co-hosted by frequent GGPoker anchor Jeff Gross and the 17-time WSOP bracelet winner, Phil Hellmuth. Known for his “poker brat” persona and unparalleled tournament record, Hellmuth’s inclusion will provide viewers with an unprecedented look into the mind of one of poker’s greatest champions.

WILDZ INTRODUCES CUTTING-EDGE ENTERTAINMENT WITH WILDZ TV
Ta ‘Xbiex, Malta, September 2025: The Wildz Group is pleased to announce an impressive new addition to its flagship Wildz platform: Video-On-Demand product Wildz TV.
Wildz TV is a rich content offering that takes into account the popularity of Video On Demand (VOD). The service delivers rich media entertainment created by guest presenters that enhances the iGaming user experience within the sportsbook and online casino verticals.
As the first Wildz Group brand to provide a full sportsbook offering that accompanies its popular online casino within the same platform, Wildz is the ideal space to boost the enjoyment even more by introducing VOD content. Aligning with the brand’s ‘GET MORE’ payoff line, this complete entertainment suite provides streaming, live chat and 24/7 customer support, setting the bar high for one-stop leisure gaming.
Embracing the trend
VOD content is sweeping the globe as the preferred option chosen by customers seeking to make the most of their leisure activities, allowing them exclusive access to content suited to their tastes (Netflix, Amazon Prime Video and Disney+ being notable examples). According to Markets dot com, in 2023 the VOD market size was valued at USD 146.6 billion, and it’s forecast to balloon to USD 270.3 billion by 2028, with a CAGR of 13%. It made sense to the Wildz team that this trend will inevitably dominate gambling entertainment, too, leading to the creation of a VOD tier of video action in Wildz TV.
Wildz hosts the phenomenal team at Gämblerscast to showcase how this works. They’re renowned for their razor-sharp commentary and insights. Viewers can enjoy Gämblerscast episodes, explore dedicated Gämblers Picks for selected sports and even dip into the Gämblers Favourite Slots.
About Gämblerscast
The collective at Gämblerscast has been amassing a growing following of enthusiasts on Twitch, YouTube and TikTok. As gambling enthusiasts, they know exactly how to create content that appeals to players, including insights, observations, humour and plenty of fun. This winning combination makes them a great fit as the first-ever team to be hosted on Wildz.
The added value of VOD
Players get the opportunity to access exclusive content for a modest premium, content that’s designed to match their interests. While Hulu and Paramount+ (for example) cater to mass markets, sites such as Wildz TV can provide niche content.
Contained behind a paywall, VOD entertainment is perfect for gambling as it underscores the importance of providing access to content according to Responsible Gaming principles and guidelines. Better yet, this source of revenue for entertainers offers a more sustainable form of entertainment that allows others to explore their creativity, too.
Jani Koskinen, Chief Marketing Officer at Wildz Group, says, “VOD is the way forward for gambling platforms seeking to acquire, entertain, engage, and retain players. We’ve seen a great impact from hosting the Gämblerscast team and premium sports events, and we anticipate quality engagement as we explore the benefits of offering rich and exclusive media to our customers. Welcome to the future of iGaming entertainment!”
Wildz TV is yet another reason players are moving to Wildz and sticking around for more quality gambling entertainment.
