If we talk about the upcoming fight, then the teams will definitely refuse Vertigo and Anubis. Probably, the Danish team will focus on Nuke or Overpass, while NAVI will again start from Inferno. Nevertheless, the minimal advantage in terms of strength plays in favor of the "Born to Win", who made significant progress at the distance after starting failures at BLAST.
