SKADE and Movistar Riders will meet at REPUBLEAGUE TIPOS Season 1. It is likely that both teams do not need this tournament at all. In this case, we return to the starting one, where the Bulgarian team is much stronger than the Spaniards, knocked out by time.
SKADE shape
The 24th team in the world ranking returned to the original, from where they began to win everyone. As a result, the Bulgarian team won the Elisa Invitational Spring 2021, gaining excellent shape along the way. With such a mood, SKADE not only crushes everyone within the Spring Sweet Spring 1 Regionals, but also got into the closed qualifier for IEM Summer 2021.
The latest results of the team:
- Victory over M1 EDEN with a score of 2: 0.
- The victory over the Apeks with a score of 28:26.
- Victory over Case with a score of 2: 0.
- Victory over Endpoint with a score of 16: 5.
- Victory over Izako Boars with a score of 2: 0.
Best SKADE cards:
- Overpass - 95% wins.
- Inferno - 78% wins.
- Train - 74% wins.
- Mirage - 71% wins.
- Vertigo - 59% wins.
- Nuke - 50% wins.
- Dust 2 - 50% wins.
Quite confident numbers, you must agree. It is interesting what the opponent will oppose to this.
Movistar Riders uniform
The 42nd team in the world ranking is striking in its instability. After the failure in the Funspark ULTI 2021 Europe Regional Series 1, the team managed to win the open qualifier for IEM Summer 2021, having passed a very difficult path. After that, the team qualified for FLASHPOINT 3, along the way winning ESEA Premier Season 36 Europe Relegation. But I still have a hard time believing that Movistar Riders can tune in to every match.
The latest results of the team:
- Victory over Budapest Five with a score of 2: 0.
- Victory over Chetz with a score of 2: 0.
- Victory over Copenhagen Flames with a score of 2: 0.
- Victory over Sangal with a score of 2: 1.
- Victory over BLINK with a score of 2: 0.
Best Movistar Riders Cards:
- Overpass - 77% wins.
- Inferno - 73% wins.
- Nuke - 67% wins.
- Mirage - 55% wins.
- Train - 55% wins.
Do not forget that the team does not play Dust 2. However, here we will focus on only one map.
Personal meetings statistics
During the last season, the teams held two meetings:
- Movistar Riders win at ESEA MDL Season 34 Europe with a score of 28:25.
- Movistar Riders win in the qualifiers for DreamHack Open Fall 2020 with a score of 2: 0.
However, the time factor should not be ruled out.
Prediction for the match SKADE - Movistar Riders
As I said, there is an assumption that the teams are not very strong in this tournament. In such a situation, it is difficult to decide on a favorite, given the lack of motivation. However, right now the Bulgarian team is leaving a slightly better impression of their game. Therefore, here I propose to bet on the victory of the SKADE team.
