Mr Green esports betting and odds

Dismissed just a few years ago as ‘not a real sport’, the folks at ESPN had to eat their CEO’s words when they realized the potential of the market. Competitive video game playing started out as informal contests between groups of game enthusiasts, but the games developers saw the promise in creating endorsed tournaments and providing prize funds. In the past few years, it has become big business, with the 2017 market estimated to be worth three-quarters of a billion GBP.

With an enormous following – the League of Legends World Championship finals is said to have attracted up to 60 million viewers worldwide – it’s no wonder that spectators have started betting on the outcomes of these competitions. Mr Green, along with a number of online sites, has started offering official odds on different aspects of the various tournaments. Mr Green seems to have ambitions to be a first choice for an eSports betting site.

At mrgreen.com eSports you can bet on some of the best and most popular games that are played at a competitive level. These include League of Legends, StarCraft, Dota 2, CSGO, Heroes of the Storm, and Hearthstone.

The two most popular competitive games are League of Legends, created by Riot Games, and Dota 2, from developers Valve. Both these games are known as multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) games, and in fact, there are big similarities between them because they have common origins. In this type of game, two teams of five players attempt to capture the opposition’s fortress while protecting their own. In terms of popularity, LoL attracts more players, but the prize funds for Dota 2 are higher.

Another extremely popular competitive game is Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CSGO). Unlike Dota 2 and LoL, CS: GO is a multiplayer first-person shooter, where each team plays as ‘terrorists’ or ‘counter-terrorists’. The newest eSport on the block is PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG), inspired by the movie Battle Royale. This is a game that can potentially be played by up to 100 players at a time. Professional competitions only started for this game in 2017, and the developers are still experimenting with making it a more spectator-friendly experience. Another burgeoning eSport is Overwatch, a game with a similar play to CSGO. The first competition was in 2016, and the game is still finding its feet as an eSport.

The coverage available for eSports betting may not be as vast as that which you will find on other sites offering eSports, but that does not mean that you will be disappointed if you have an account with Mr. Green and like betting on eSports from time to time. You will be able to bet on the winner of a particular match or matches or the outright winner of a particular tournament. In games like CSGO you will have the option to bet on the winner of pistol rounds, the exact score of a fight, and what team will get the first kill. Live betting is also available, with the odds changing as the game progresses.

Mr Green tries to offer odds on as many national and international tournaments as possible. Information about the competitions currently covered is available in the dedicated eSports section of the Mr Green website.

Bonuses, promotions, and bonus codes

At this time there is no specific eSports bonus code 2018, and in fact, it is not yet usual for such sportsbook providers to offer a bonus code specifically for the eSports betting market. The more online bookmakers offer odds and betting on eSports, the more such bonus codes and promotions are likely to become more common as competition increases. Players should keep a lookout for eSports bonus codes as they may become available.

Of course, Mr Green offers a generous welcome bonus to all new players, and this applies to eSports betting as well as to any other part of the website. Your first deposit will be matched up to a maximum of €50, and the matched money must be wagered a certain number of times as specified in the Mr Green Terms and Conditions.
