Prediction on match CS2 Entropiq - MAD Lions

Entropiq and MAD Lions will meet in the closed qualifier for DreamHack Open November 2021. The Russian team is now clearly busy preparing for the PGL Major, although getting to another major tournament is a good help. Well, MAD Lions recently showed a cool game, even if it didn't make it to the autumn BLAST finals.

Entropiq Form

The 19th team in the world ranking became the third at IEM Fall 2021 CIS, thereby qualifying for PGL Major Stockholm 2021. However, after that the Russian team failed in two open qualifiers for IEM Winter 2021 from Europe, losing in both cases in the last stages. Nevertheless, for me personally, Entropiq looks like a favorite, since it has been playing together for a long time and has a clear structure (if the guys do not pick the opponent round after round).

Recent Entropiq results:

• Defeat MIBR with a score of 19:17.
• Lost to FunPlus Phoenix with a score of 12:16.
• Victory over 777 with a score of 16:11.
• Beat Exalted Industries 16:10.
• Lost to 9z with a score of 1: 2.

Best Entropiq Cards:

• Mirage - 78% wins.
• Ancient - 75% wins.
• Overpass - 58% wins.
• Nuke - 50% wins.
• Dust 2 - 50% wins.

If the team hasn't played on Inferno for a long time, then the Vertigo card has been sagging lately.

MAD Lions Form

The 21st team in the world ranking got to this stage of qualification for DreamHack Open November 2021 from the open qualifiers, which in itself speaks of dedication. And as part of the BLAST Premier Fall Showdown 2021, the guys showed their teeth, covering not only the poor fellows at Evil Geniuses, but also the “stars” from G2. Another thing is that the lack of experience gave MAD Lions a defeat against Liquid, from which the team clearly needs to draw conclusions.

Recent results MAD Lions:

• Victory over LDLC with a score of 19:17.
• Win over Finest with a score of 2: 1.
• Victory over Evil Geniuses with a score of 2: 0.
• Victory over G2 with a score of 2: 1.
• Defeat against Liquid with a score of 0: 2.

Best MAD Lions cards:

• Overpass - 80% wins.
• Ancient - 70% wins.
• Mirage - 69% wins.
• Dust 2 - 67% wins.
• Inferno - 67% wins.
• Nuke - 64% win.

In this case, we will definitely miss the Vertigo card.

Forecast for the match Entropiq - MAD Lions

Recently, the Russian team has calmed down, although there are still several important matches ahead of the start of PGL Major Stockholm 2021. And now it is such a time that it is no longer worth encrypting tactics a week before the start of the main championship.

However, in my understanding Entropiq is much more structured than MAD Lions. And if the Europeans are often taken out at the shooting, then in terms of ideas, the guys are not too diverse yet. Therefore, here I propose to bet on the victory of the Entropiq team.
