In the grand final, cs_summit 8 will meet Team Liquid and FURIA Esports. Who will win the trophy?
Team Liquid
"Liquid" perform very convincingly at the reporting tournament, except that it is worth taking out the defeat from Extra Salt (1-2) in the framework of the 2nd round of the group stage. But it in no way affected the further progress on the tournament path. From the group, the "horses" came out with two wins and one loss, and then achieved two victories in the playoffs: they defeated 2-0 paiN and broke the resistance of their opponent in the grand final (2-1).
FURIA Esports
The Panthers started the tournament with a loss to O PLANO (0-2), then beat the same O PLANO in the match for the exit from the group (2-0) and Evil Geniuses (2-0). In the playoffs, they started with a victory over Extra Salt (2-1), and then were defeated in the final of the upper bracket, losing to Team Liquid (1-2). But the defeat was not a disaster, as there was another opportunity to reach the grand final, for this it was necessary to beat Extremum. We can't say that the task was completed easily, but the Panthers did not face serious difficulties either: 16-11 on Nuke and 19-15 on Vertigo.
Forecast
In the previous match, Team Liquid and FURIA Esports did not limit themselves to two cards, I believe that this time the confrontation will be prolonged, besides, it will be held in the bo5 format. I propose to bet on the most reliable outcome: the total of cards is more than 3.5.
