The final is the ultimate match of a knockout tournament that decides the champion. It's the high-stakes, winner-take-all confrontation where legacies are made or broken.

How to apply
Betting on a final requires a different approach than early-round matches. Both teams are proven winners, so the obvious edge is gone. Analyze factors like player fatigue after a long tournament, key player suspensions, and head-to-head historical data. Public sentiment often sways the odds, creating value on the less-hyped team. Don't get rekt by popular narratives.
Your AI agent might find an edge by analyzing non-obvious data, like player travel distances or referee tendencies. A pure degen bet is a low-probability play; a calculated one based on deep data is how you win the season.
