Matchförutsägelse: Evil Geniuses Black - Strife | Counter-Strike (CS2)

EG Black and Strife will compete for the right to reach the grand final of fl0m Cup 2023. To put it bluntly, at the end of last season, Evil Geniuses got into good shape and even had a chance to win ESL Challenger League Season 43.

In turn, Strife continues to be in a fever, and the team is gradually falling behind its competitors in the region. In general, I would not expect unexpected results here, since EG Black is noticeably ahead in terms of the game. Yes, and junior is trying to prove that it is too early to write it off for scrap.

Form EG Black

The 41st team in the world rankings ended last season pretty well. As a result, the North American team became the second at ESL Challenger League Season 43, finishing the championship with only one defeat.

As for the start at fl0m Cup 2023, here EG Black managed to beat 4Bots & Eric, although there is nothing special about it. It is clear that the team plays with a modified line-up, but so far junior looks very good.

EG Black latest results:

• Technical victory over Vendetta.
• Victory over Nouns Esports with a score of 2:1.
• Victory over MIBR with a score of 2:0.
• Defeated by MIBR with a score of 1:2.
• Victory over 4Bots & Eric with a score of 2:0.

Best EG Black cards:

• Overpass - 75% of wins.
• Mirage - 71% of wins.
• Inferno - 70% win rate.
• Vertigo - 67% of wins.
• Nuke - 50% win rate.

But if earlier the North American team banned Ancient, now we have to think about Anubis.

Strife shape

The 105th team of the world ranking last flashed in positive reports back in the fall. Since then, the North American team has failed at all championships.

Moreover, Strife did not make it to the playoffs of both ESL Challenger League Season 42: North America and ESL Challenger League Season 43: North America.

As for the start at fl0m Cup 2023, here the team managed to cope with Disconnected, which is not bad. And yet, at a distance, it is clear that the team is sagging and needs to be reshuffled.

Latest Strife results:

• Lost to EG Black with a score of 0:2.
• Victory over Detonate with a score of 2:1.
• Defeated by 7AM NA with a score of 0:2.
• Lost to EG Black with a score of 11:16.
• Victory over Disconnected with a score of 2:0.

Best Strife cards:

• Vertigo - 67% of wins.
• Inferno - 50% win rate.
• Overpass - 50% of wins.

In turn, the collective refuses the Anubis card.

Match statistics EG Black — Strife

As part of the last season, the teams had one meeting - at the ESL Challenger League Season 43: North America, EG Black won (2:0).

Prediction for the match EG Black — Strife

"Evil Geniuses" are already on the winning side, since the opponent will probably not take risks and pick Anubis. In all other respects, Strife loses to a competitor who, as the opening match shows, has not lost in class even with the departure of wiz. Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on the victory of the EG Black team with a score of 2:0.
