Prediction on match CS2 ECSTATIC - Team K23

ECSTATIC and K23 will meet in the second round of the Funspark ULTI 2021 Finals lower bracket. If the Danes managed to blunder in the framework of this championship, then K23, given the level of opponents, looks quite good. At the same time, we do not forget that in the last face-to-face meeting, the Russian team defeated the Danes, leaving them no chance.

Form ECSTATIC

The 20th team in the world ranking frankly failed at the start of Funspark ULTI 2021 Finals. And in the Elisa Invitational Winter 2021 Main Qualifier, the team barely beat a weak opponent. However, in the first round of the lower bracket, the Danes miraculously closed Complexity. But it seems to me that this victory is the merit of the North Americans themselves, who handed over the ECSTATIC game with their own hands, which, in turn, did not show anything outstanding.

• Inferno - 65% of wins.
• Ancient - 64% of wins.
• Vertigo - 53% of wins.
• Overpass - 50% of wins.
• Dust 2 - 50% win rate.

At the same time, in the last meetings, the Danish team banned the Overpass map.

Form K23

The 22nd team in the world rankings got off to a great start at the Funspark ULTI 2021 Finals, upsetting Astralis. Yes, the match turned out to be interesting in terms of mistakes. However, in the semi-finals the team failed to cope with BIG, showing a raw game, except for the Mirage map. However, against the next Danes, K23 should play links, since there is a difference in class between ECSTATIC and everyone else.

Latest K23 results:

• 2-0 victory over Copenhagen Flames.
• Victory over Dignitas with a score of 2:1.
• 2:0 victory over BLUEJAYS.
• Victory over Astralis with a score of 2:1.
• Defeated by BIG with a score of 1:2.

• Mirage - 89% of wins.
• Dust 2 - 86% of wins.
• Overpass - 71% of wins.
• Nuke - 71% of wins.
• Ancient - 57% of wins.

At the same time, the team has not played on the Vertigo map for a long time.

Match statistics ECSTATIC — K23

At the end of the last season, the teams had one meeting - at Funspark ULTI 2021 Europe Regional Series 4, K23 won (2:0).

Prediction for the match ECSTATIC — K23

For me personally, the Danes are still a weak team, only able to surprise in places. At the same time, it seems to me that K23 learned how to play against TIER-2 opponents. And let's not forget that the guys have been training against the giants for a long time, imposing their game. Therefore, here I propose to bet on the victory of the K23 team. Well, I'll add that the only difficulty for the Russian team can be the Inferno map.
