Dota 2 fans are worried that betting on ranked matches is damaging the game’s competitive integrity
Betting is an unavoidable part of competitive sports and esports. If there are odds, fans will enjoy some gambling from time to time, but some websites have been going overboard in Dota 2, even affecting the quality of ranked matches.
GG Bet allows fans to bet on high-ranked matches, which generally feature professional players and streamers. The website picks the odds for the Radiant and Dire sides while nothing stops the players who are also playing in the featured match from betting, a situation that also has been a hot topic within the League of Legends community.
