Pimp named Team Spirit's defense as one of the best at PGL Major Antwerp 2022

Pimp, who works in the analytics studio during PGL Major Antwerp 2022, commented on Team Spirit 's victory over FURIA in the quarterfinals of the tournament, noting the team's excellent defensive play, which is different from those shown by other teams.

Team Spirit is a Cinderella story from beginning to end. The team has to constantly play various qualifications for qualifications, and in the end it goes to the playoffs and gets to the semi-finals.

Separately, I want to note that Team Spirit has the best defensive game among all the participants in the major. Why is that? She wins 73% of rounds with CT. Also, these guys win 50% of the rounds in which they are in the minority. That is, even with the loss of the first player, the team still has excellent chances of winning. Just compare it with G2 Esports, for example, which has only 22% of wins in such rounds in nine maps in this tournament. Team Spirit's stats are pretty damn good.

I love the style that Team Spirit plays. She creates chaos and then controls it. This style is somewhat similar to how NAVI operates. I can't say that the "dragons" have the same firepower as NAVI, but these guys also shoot very well.

Now I don't want to say that Team Spirit is capable of winning the Major. We need to see if she can handle FaZe Clan in the semi-finals. If she copes with such an individually strong opponent and dominates like in the game with FURIA, then nothing can stop her on the way to the title.

Recall that the day before, Team Spirit defeated FURIA with a score of 2:0 and reached the semi-finals of PGL Major Antwerp 2022. Here the Russian team will play with FaZe Clan.
