Entropiq Will win
FURIA and Entropiq will play in the group stage of ESL Pro League Season 14. While the Brazilians were playing Santa Barbara with the roster, the Russian team took trophies. And this story seems to me personally indicative, clearly hinting at the real distribution of forces. And rumors from the FURIA camp are such that the team will hold this championship in a state of quarrel.
FURIA Form
The 15th team in the world rankings failed at IEM Cologne 2021, heading back home. It was then that the first news from the camp of the team began, which decided to look for a newcomer. Apparently the guys didn’t like the honda game, which was the beginning of the conflict. First, FURIA left the young home, taking a drop from the academy to Poland. But ESL didn't like this move, forcing the team to call honda. And for some reason it seems to me that this story puts an end to the prospects of the Brazilians.
Recent results FURIA:
- Victory over Endpoint with a score of 2: 1.
- Victory over SKADE with a score of 2: 1.
- Defeat against Vitality with a score of 0: 2.
- Victory over Renegades with a score of 2: 0.
- Defeat against Heroic with a score of 0: 2.
Best FURIA cards:
- Mirage - 67% wins.
- Nuke - 67% wins.
- Inferno - 50% wins.
- Ancient - 50% wins.
I think that we shouldn't wait too much for Dust 2 from the Brazilians. At the same time, the team hardly ever plays on Vertigo.
Entropiq Form
The 17th team in the world ranking received an invitation to the 1/8 finals of Malta Vibes Knockout Series 1, later becoming the winner of the tournament. It is interesting that on its way the team walked not only through K23, Lyngby Vikings and Copenhagen Flames, but also ENCE. For a minute, these guys have already reached the playoffs of ESL Pro League Season 14, where the guys from Entropiq are clearly determined to get there.
Recent Entropiq results:
- Defeat from SKADE with a score of 1: 2.
- Victory over K23 with a score of 2: 0.
- Victory over Lyngby Vikings with a score of 2: 0.
- Victory over Copenhagen Flames with a score of 2: 1.
- Victory over ENCE with a score of 2: 1.
Best Entropiq Cards:
- Nuke - 79% wins.
- Overpass - 77% wins.
- Mirage - 67% wins.
- Dust 2 - 60% wins.
- Vertigo - 50% wins.
Interestingly, during the pause, the team was clearly preparing for Ancient. We shouldn't expect the Inferno map though.

Forecast for the match FURIA - Entropiq
The main thoughts on the prospects of the Brazilian team have already been expressed. It remains only to understand with what attitude FURIA came to the championship. And it seems to me that the Brazilians trained for two or three weeks without a honda, which will definitely affect the roles and the roleplaying in general. Therefore, here I propose to bet on the victory of the more stable Entropiq team.
Entropiq Will win
The first tour of Group D continues with the confrontation of the CIS scene against the Brazilian one. Now our region is represented by the guys from Entropiq. Before the start of the tournament, Furia had problems with the roster, which they could not solve, as a result, they will play together with the coach at this tournament.
Entropiq
The team is on the verge of a shooting range 2 scene, constantly playing with strong teams, and from time to time they manage to upset them or at least impose a fight. The team has already left the vacation and played 4 matches, which brought victory at Malta Vibes Knockout Series 1 and $ 24,000. The players have been playing together for a long time, so the game in bundles is well established. As for the map pool, here the team confidently takes Ovepass to their pick and bans Inferno, which in turn gives an advantage in this confrontation.
Furia
In this tournament, the team will play with coach guerri, which automatically makes them outsiders of the group, somewhat reminiscent of the situation with EG. The team was on vacation all this time and was solving their problems with the lineup, there were even rumors that they made an offer to coldzere, but this all remained at the level of rumors.
The cards should not have changed during this time, the Brazilians still do not play Dust 2 and take inferno to their peak, which in this game plays a negative for them due to the fact that the opponent does not play this card at all.
Outcome
With Furia replaced with a coach, Entropiq has an even better chance of winning this match, and the cards suit them well.
