Pros and Cons

Layout and Functionality

The website is set on a background that looks like a scene from a game and the design as a whole is set to match the theme. The site is available in English and Swedish, you will see the active or upcoming events at the central menu, whereas on the left there’s a vertical menu with all featured esports.

It is very easy to find anything on the website, especially since esports betting is the only type of betting that is featured. The odds are displayed in a decimal format. The old website design is still available, and if you click on the ‘Old Betspawn’ link available at the bottom of the page, you will be taken to old website format.

Esports Betting Offer

The list of esports that are offered at Betspawn is rather long one, there are more than 15 featured esports, whereas most conventional websites that offer esports betting usually don’t list more than few games. In addition to the most popular esports such as Counter Strike: Global Offensive, League of Legends, Dota 2, StarCraft 2, Betspawn also offers betting on World of Tanks, Vainglory, Crossfire, Gears of War, Call of Duty and even FIFA.

The esports for which betting is offered at the moment when you visit the site will be listed at the top of the menu and they will also be highlighted, plus you will notice an arrow button which if clicked opens a dropdown menu. The menu shows all events and competitions that are currently available. If you click on a non-highlighted esport you will see a message that there are no upcoming events at that moment.

In addition to match winner, there is a number of other available markets for each individual esport match, especially if the match in question is part of a renowned and popular tournament or league. The offered markets also depend on the format of the particular esport as well as the tournament format.

For example, if you wish to bet on CSGO match, there might be over 15 markets at your disposal. In addition to match betting and map betting (betting on the outcome of individual maps), you will also be able to bet on the total number of rounds per map, whether there will be an even or an odd number of rounds, and even which team will win the pistol round during each map. In addition you can also place various handicap bets (where either team is given a virtual round advantage over the other).

If you click on the odds for a particular selection, the field will turn yellow and that selection will be added to your bet slip. You may add multiple selections to your bet slip and then you can choose if you wish to place single bets or a combo bet on all chosen selection. If you choose to wager on all selections, then accumulator bet is the only option, you can’t place any system bets or other combination bets at Betspawn.

If you choose a more popular tournament, like the League of Legends World Championship, you will be able to place so called ‘tournament bets’ before the first match of the tournament takes place. You can bet which team will win the tournament, from which region will the winning team be and even who will be the top player of the tournament.

Live Betting and Streaming

When you choose an esport which features multiple live or upcoming events, the live ones will be marked with an appropriate ‘live’ icon whereas for the remaining ones you will see the date next to the name of the event, so you’ll know when the next matches take place.

Alternatively, if you click on ‘Live Now’ you will see all events that are currently underway. When betting is suspended on an event you will see a lock and the ‘Currently closed’ description. In addition to live betting, Betspawn also offers live streaming of certain events, as well statistical data that will help you make a better informed decision and other useful information regarding the participating teams.
