Betting Squares in Esports? Here’s How DOTA 2 Betting Squares Work
We’ve talked quite a lot about March Madness squares and Super Bowl squares for a while, but not much has been said about the growing market of esports betting squares. That’s right, squares aren’t just a popular betting format in basketball or football. It’s also becoming a staple in esports today, and in this esports betting guide, we’ll let you in on all the important bits you need to know.
First - what are betting squares?
In case you need a refresher, betting squares is a popular betting style in sports, and now also in esports, which falls into the proposition bet category. In this format, you are betting on the teams’ final scores on a matchup. You are given a sheet with “squares” with varied wagers, which you can win when you pick the winning square. This square is a combination of the final digit of the winning team’s score followed by the losing team’s score.
Now, onto the fun part of this esports betting guide.
Let’s talk about DOTA 2 Esports Betting Squares
We know what you’re thinking: isn’t this applicable to esports tournaments with multiple matches only? We get it. That’s why in esports betting squares, or in this case, DOTA 2 squares, we don’t use the final scores of the matchups. Instead, we take the numbers of the total hero kill count of each team and put them in the squares.
As for Nitro Squares, the contest will only be taking these numbers from a single game in a series. Each sportsbook varies from another in terms of betting squares rules, of course. So, the general rule of the game is that the winning square will be determined by the final digit of the winning team’s total hero kill count and the final digit of the losing team’s total hero kill count. That exact order must be followed to make a win or a prediction valid.
