Match Prediction: Heroic - Virtus.pro | CS2 (CS:GO)
PGL Major Stockholm 2021Heroic and Virtus.pro will meet in the first quarter-finals of PGL Major Stockholm 2021. At this stage, there are no favorites as such, since the scene factor and the looming prize can affect the players' motivation. At the same time, do not forget that the Danes are traditionally considered weak in the LAN format, while Virtus.pro has not yet had time to play, adjusting to the newcomer only during the tournament.
Heroic form
The fifth team of the world ranking with grief overcame the first stage of PGL Major Stockholm 2021. However, the team felt much more comfortable in the Legends stage. Yes, the Danes lost in the first round of NAVI, but in the current reality it is not so shameful. In addition, Heroic managed to take revenge on Copenhagen Flames by leveling out its own mistakes. And if the team is not the favorite of the tournament, then it definitely claims to be in the TOP-4.
Recent Heroic results:
- Victory over Movistar Riders with a score of 2: 0.
- Defeat from NAVI with a score of 11:16.
- Victory over Vitality with a score of 16:12.
- Victory over Astralis with a score of 16: 7.
- Victory over Copenhagen Flames with a score of 2: 1.
Best Heroic Cards:
- Inferno - 88% wins.
- Overpass - 80% wins.
- Ancient - 60% wins.
- Nuke - 56% wins.
- Vertigo - 50% wins.
I think that the team will refuse Dust 2, which they traditionally do not play.
Virtus.pro kits
The eleventh team in the world ranking sensationally reached the playoffs of PGL Major Stockholm 2021. Yes, every game of the team was played with an unreal intensity of passion. However, two strong-willed victories over MOUZ and FaZe Clan, in my opinion, will greatly help the players in terms of motivation. In addition, on paper, Virtus.pro seems to be a very strong team with unrealistic potential. Another thing is that against the background of dampness it is impossible to say so confidently that the team is on friendly terms with stability.
Recent Virtus.pro results:
- Victory over Vitality with a score of 16:14.
- Defeat against NAVI with a score of 4:16.
- Lost at Gambit with a score of 14:16.
- Victory over MOUZ with a score of 2: 1.
- Victory over FaZe Clan with a score of 2: 1.
Best Virtus.pro cards:
- Vertigo - 73% wins.
- Inferno - 64% wins.
- Overpass - 60% wins.
- Mirage - 50% wins.
- Dust 2 - 50% wins.
It is clear that the team will not leave Nuke. At the same time, everything is still bad for the team on the Ancient map.

The last meeting between the teams was dated last June, when Virtus.pro beat Heroic with a score of 2: 1.
Prediction for the match Heroic - Virtus.pro
I think the Danes have a clear advantage on Ancient. In all other respects, the odds are roughly equal. At the same time, I have already said that the scene factor will change the usual balance of power, so that even an outsider, which is VP, can accomplish a feat. In addition, the CIS team overcame a thorny path to qualify for the playoffs. And it seems to me that the guys will definitely be ready to fight. Therefore, here I propose to bet on the Forum (+1.5) for the Virtus.pro team.
Heroic vs. VP.
The Danes began their journey here from the Challenger and advanced to the Legends stage with a score of 3-2, not without intrigue. And in the Legends stage, the guys started with a defeat, although they gave battle to Na'vi. But then the toggle switch snapped and the guys scored three victories, quite confident, and here's the Play Offs.
But let's go to the opponent, whose coach has been drinking Corvalol with buckets of the last two matches.
VP back in Challenger started walking along the edge of the cliff and bungee jumping. But in the end, the guys on the third map in overtime turned off Spirit and went to Legends. There is an immediate victory over Vitality, and guess, yes - through validol. Then a takeaway from Navi and an offensive defeat from Gambit. The guys have 1-2 and they need to register two victories in a row in BO3. And they do it, but kaaak! With mice there are three cards and on the third card there are special stages, two rounds of special stages, the mice are home. With the Phase clan they make a combo on Enshente from a score of 13-8 per attack!! Make out the first victory on this card in general. They transfer the game to the third map and the Phases are all there, at first they were on tilt, then they did not catch up. The problem with luck is that it can end at any moment, and courage can cool down in a couple of days.
In such a tournament, especially in the playoffs, the bet on three cards should seem to be the default. Or a handicap of +1.5 on cards for one of the participants. And rightly so, choosing a winner is difficult and the teams show the game of life.
But I still want to choose a winner, for sporting interest. Heroics looked more stable in my eyes.
Winning Heroic, as an option, of course, in 1.55.
But!!! Of course!!! VP forward! Close 2: 0 of these upstarts from Denmark.
"Not for the fact that his son's father beat his son, that he played, but for the fact that he tried to win back."
Be sane, put it wisely.
