Match Prediction: Team K23 - Marlian | Counter-Strike (CS2)
EPIC League CIS Spring 2021 RMRK23 and Marlian will meet in the second round of the EPIC League CIS 2021. Here we see two losers of the starting round of the championship. However, there is a feeling that K23 will reconsider its approach to business and will not underestimate the opponent, as it was in the closed qualifier.
Form K23
The 39th team in the world ranking was able to get to the EPIC League CIS 2021, although in the closed qualifier it clearly underestimated its rivals. Nevertheless, through thorns, the team ended up in the championship, where already in the first round they could not cope with Virtus.pro. At the same time, I would like to note that the K23 lacked experience and confidence, since 10:16 on two cards speaks of systemic flaws. For example, it is worth tightening up the game in the majority. Although among the “losers” of the first round, the team is almost the most interesting.
Recent results K23:
- Defeat from forZe with a score of 0: 2.

- Victory over Save's with a score of 2: 0.
- Victory over AVE with a score of 2: 0.
- Defeat against Virtus.pro with a score of 0: 2.
Best K23 cards:
- Train - 86% wins.
- Vertigo - 67% wins.
- Inferno - 67% wins.
- Dust 2 - 65% wins.
- Overpass - 55% wins.
Yes, the team has difficulties with the Nuke map, which needs to get rid of a nosebleed. However, the rest of the K23 looks much stronger.
Marlian uniform
The 86th team of the world rankings with blood and sweat qualified for the EPIC League CIS 2021, having passed all the stages of selection. As a result, already in the closed qualifier, the team crashed K23 and AVE, showing a solid game. So in the first round, the team fought against Trident, showing their confidence. But here the question arises: will the young have enough of this very confidence not to swim and fly out of the championship?
Recent Marlian results:
- Draw with ENTERPRISE 1: 1.
- Victory over K23 with a score of 16: 9.
- Victory over AVE with a score of 2: 0.
- Victory over DEFEATERS with a score of 2: 0.
- Lost to Trident 1: 2.
Best Marlian Cards:
- Nuke - 75% wins.
- Mirage - 67% wins.
At the same time, the team has a rather strong Overpass card. But Vertigo or Inferno from Marlian, we are unlikely to see.
Meeting statistics K23 - Marlian

Forecast for the match K23 - Marlian
The degree of heat is growing, which prompts to raise rates. The young Ukrainian team lived up to expectations in the first round, having managed to impose a fight on Trident. But if it weren't for the Nuke series, we would see a fast 0: 2 for Marlian. In this regard, there are certain doubts that motivation alone will be enough for the team. As for K23, I will not pay attention to the recent face-to-face meeting, because the favorite clearly underestimated the underdog there. Therefore, here I propose to bet on the victory of the K23 team. At the same time, I am sure that it is worth catching Total in rounds 24.5 more on the 1st map.
