9z and The Union will meet in the KaBuM Grand Finals! Challenge 2022. It’s not even necessary to sort it out here, since one team is two heads stronger than the second.
It is clear that the Brazilians can surprise, especially since 9z is not the most obligatory team, but I personally believe in this scenario with great difficulty.
Form 9z
The 22nd team of the world ranking surprised everyone at the Roobet Cup 2022, where they almost made it to the semi-finals, missing a couple of rounds in the game against Cloud9.
However, further on, the Latin American team disappeared somewhere again, apparently gaining strength. But then 9z decided to play as part of KaBuM! Challenge 2022, with virtually no chance of closing all of their opponents. Logically, the team should take this grand final without ulterior motives.
Latest 9z results:
- Victory over WAP with a score of 2:0.
- Victory over 9z Academy with a score of 2:0.
- Victory over Star Games with a score of 16:5.
- Victory over Los Grandes with a score of 16:11.
- Victory over The Union with a score of 16:4.
Best 9z cards:
At the same time, the Latin American team continues to refuse to play on the Vertigo map.
Form The Union
The 133rd team in the world ranking recently reached the semi-finals of the CBCS Elite League 2022, and also made it to the top three in the Liga Gamers Club 2022 Serie A June Cup.
As for the performances of the Brazilian band at KaBuM! Challenge 2022, then here he got three victories, and also devastatingly lost to 9z. I think that the result will be repeated, because The Union itself is much weaker.
Latest The Union results:
- Defeat from Daotsu with a score of 1:2.
- Victory over Corinthians with a score of 16:11.
- Victory over Arctic eSports with a score of 16:12.
- Lost to 9z at 4:16.
- Victory over Corinthians with a score of 2:0.
The best The Union cards:
- Inferno - 100% win rate.
- Dust 2 - 60% of wins.
In turn, the Brazilians refuse the Nuke card.
9z meeting statistics — The Union
Within the framework of the current championship, the teams had one meeting - in the final of the upper bracket, the victory went to 9z (16:4).
Prediction for the match 9z — The Union
There are no prerequisites that in this match we will see a struggle and can count on intrigue. It is clear that BO1 is not an indicator, but the Latin American team is the clear favorite of the entire championship, which they managed to prove.
In turn, The Union shows good results, but at its level. As a result, we get a typical duel in which one team is obliged to close 2:0.
It is worth saying that both finalists will go to KaBuM anyway! Legends, but all the same, zakk's wards look two heads stronger.
Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on the victory of the 9z team with a score of 2:0.
