Match Prediction: G2 Esports - FaZe Clan | CS2 (CS:GO)
IEM Katowice 2022G2 and FaZe Clan will meet as part of the grand final of IEM Katowice 2022. An extremely unpredictable game in which everything will depend on the inclusion of individual players and their decisions. And yet, FaZe Clan looks a little more holistic if we consider team interactions, while G2 will once again focus on the individual play of one of the leaders.
Form G2
The fifth team in the world ranking failed at the start of IEM Katowice 2022, where they lost to fnatic and fell into the lower bracket. However, in the course of the group stage, the team found its game, beating many difficult opponents along the way. In the playoffs, G2 continued its march, confidently outplaying Virtus.pro and NAVI. However, in my opinion, the team does not seem like a favorite, since it relies solely on the individual play of the brothers or m0NESY.

FaZe Clan form
The ninth team in the world ranking, on the contrary, started confidently at IEM Katowice 2022, outplaying Team Liquid and fnatic. However, the team failed to reach the semi-finals directly, losing to NAVI in the decisive game. In any case, this defeat did not tie the hands of FaZe Clan, which literally outran Gambit and Heroic in the playoffs. And if we start from the game shown by the whole team, there is a feeling that it is FaZe Clan that should lift the cup.
- The victory over Team Liquid with a score of 2:1.
- 2:1 victory over fnatic.
- Lost to NAVI with a score of 1:2.
- Victory over Gambit with a score of 2:0.

Prediction for G2 vs FaZe Clan match
There is no need to guess, as the teams will abandon Overpass and Vertigo. To some extent, the fate of the finale will depend on the individual actions of karrigan and Aleksib, since a lot depends on them. Nevertheless, taking into account the performance of the teams in the playoffs, as well as a rough understanding of the picks, I suggest betting on the victory of the FaZe Clan team. I will explain this by the fact that the club looks more holistic as a team, and is also not focused on the individual performance of the riflers.
