Native Gaming Red enter HCS Global Invitational as one of the most consistent North American Halo esports teams. Even though they’ve not won an event since HCS 2023 North America Open Series 1, Native Gaming Red have achieved a lot.
Since their early exit from Open Series 2, Native Gaming Red have placed fourth in Series 3-5 and reached the lower bracket semifinals of FaZe Clan Online. There, they got eliminated by Complexity (1-3), so it’s not shocking to see Complexity priced as favourites for this match.
Despite how the last meeting ended, Complexity are not that much better, and they’ve been going back and forth with Native Gaming Red since the turn of the year. So here it’s not the question of which team is better but which squad will step up on the day.
But more importantly, all of their last five meetings were very close, making betting on overs a solid choice.

?The latest Halo esports betting odds suggest that OpTic Gaming should trounce Quadrant, but while we can agree that OpTic are much stronger, having Quadrant priced at double digits is a bit disrespectful.
OpTic Gaming are $3.00 favourites on the HCS Global Invitational outright betting markets, and rightly so. They won Year 2 Kickoff Major Charlotte and NA Open Series 3 and 5; however, OpTic also crashed out of NA FaZe Clan Online at the start of May.
One poor tournament run doesn’t mean much, but OpTic have often shown cracks against lesser teams, so it’s not too wild to believe that Quadrant can do some damage. And it’s not like we’re talking about a weak opponent – Quadrant are the current best Halo team from Europe.
At the offered odds, a smaller position on Quadrant to win isn’t a wrong choice, but we’re happy with the price on the map handicap market.
