Evil Geniuses and MAD Lions will meet in the 1/8 finals of BLAST Premier Fall Showdown 2021. We analyze the form of the teams and give a forecast.
Evil Geniuses
Despite the negative results recently, Evil Geniuses not only made their way to the Major, but also found themselves in the Legends, in the main stage. The last tournament of "Evil Geniuses" was IEM Fall 2021 North America, which managed to finish in fifth place. This result can be considered quite successful, especially considering that before that 10-12 places were occupied at BLAST Premier Fall Groups 2021 and 21-24 at ESL Pro League Season 14.
MAD Lions
Modest results are also demonstrated by the guys from MAD Lions, who were able to cope with the open qualifiers of the DreamHack Open November 2021, winning in all three matches, and before that took only 17-20 places in the framework of IEM Fall 2021 Europe. The best result of the team over the past few months is considered to be the first place at the ESEA Autumn 2021 Cash Cup 1 Europe tournament, where VP were beaten.Prodigy and INDE IRAE are 2-0 each.
Forecast
Both teams are far from being in perfect shape, but I will still give preference to the "Evil Geniuses" and bet on their victory. It's time for the guys to show a high-level game and achieve positive results, especially after getting into the stage of Legends at the Major.
