Match Prediction: FaZe Clan - OG | CS2 (CS:GO)
BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Europe RMR AFaZe Clan and OG will meet in the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Europe RMR A Long Concluding Round. I think we'll dispense with The International riga here, despite the status label.
The first thing to talk about is the problems of OG, who will definitely be making replacements in the near future. And if the team doesn't make it to the majors, changes will happen as soon as possible.
FaZe Clan, on the other hand, recently won a major championship and finally won the fourth season of the IGS. And the team has noticeably grown in confidence, once again becoming a favorite of any tournament.
So here I would take a closer look at the logical victory of FaZe Clan. All the same, ruggah's wards are not in a condition to put up a fight in such a duel.
The shape of FaZe Clan
The second team of the world ranking back on the Long Stage of the season coolly performed in the BLAST Premier Spring Groups 2023, where they got three victories, two of them over OG, to qualify for the spring finals.
However, the European side was unsuccessful later in IEM Katowice 2023, as they suffered two defeats against G2 and Team Liquid, not even making it to the play-offs.
And yet FaZe Clan recently won the ESL Pro League Season 17 with a very strong showing in the play-offs. Yes, the team had problems in some places, but who will remember that now.
The latest results of FaZe Clan:
- A 0-2 defeat at the hands of Vitality.
- 2-0 defeat of FURIA.
- 2-1 victory over FORZE.
- Beat Natus Vincere 2-1.
- Defeated Cloud9 3-1.
Top scorers of the FaZe Clan:
- Inferno - 100% wins.
- Mirage - 67% wins.
- Nuke - 67% wins.
- Ancient - 62% wins.
- Overpass - 60% wins.
Let's not forget that the FaZe Clan team has long been abandoning Vertigo.
OG's form
The nineteenth ranked team in the world disgraced itself back in the group stage of ESL Pro League Season 17, where it got all one victory over the Brazilians from 00NATION.
However, the European squad was quickly eliminated from the BLAST Premier Spring Showdown 2023 Europe as they lost to Ninjas in Pyjamas in the quarterfinals.
Furthermore, OG also failed in the close qualification for IEM Dallas 2023 as apart from beating sYnck, GODSENT and fnatic, they didn't show any fight whatsoever. So you have to wonder what you can expect from such a team.
Latest OG results:
- A 0-2 loss to Ninjas in Pyjamas.
- Defeated sYnck 2-0.
- Defeated GODSENT 2-1.
- Beat fnatic 2-1.
- 0-2 defeat to Cloud9.
Top scorers for OG:
- Ancient - 70% wins.
- Mirage - 62% of wins.
In turn, the European squad is still not featured on the Nuke map.
FaZe Clan - OG encounter statistics
During the current season, the teams held two meetings:
- FaZe Clan's 2-1 victory in the BLAST Premier Spring Groups 2023.
- A 2-0 victory for FaZe Clan in the BLAST Premier Spring Groups 2023.
OG were then able to close out the Ancient map.
Prediction for FaZe Clan vs OG
I don't see any The International riga as OG hardly resembles a full-fledged team. I won't dwell on the reasons and problems, but the result is evident.
In turn, about FaZe Clan talk senseless, because at ESL Pro League Season 17 guys have proven their desire to return to the top. And with the rival team has long been familiar.
Therefore, in this case, I would recommend to bet on FaZe Clan to win.
