Match Prediction: Heroic - FaZe Clan | CS2 (CS:GO)
BLAST Premier Fall Finals 2022Heroic and FaZe Clan will compete for the right to become the winner of BLAST Premier Fall Finals 2022. Let me remind you that the teams already played a couple of days ago in the group stage, and then the victory went to RobbaN's wards.
Perhaps, in this case, it makes sense to build on the results of the past confrontation, since the Danes were simply moved there and outplayed tactically.
Plus, there is no certainty that the audience will cheer for Heroic, since the candidacy of cadiaN causes distrust. On the other hand, we have karrigan, who works with the public no less.
Therefore, in here I would look closely at the victory of FaZe Clan, which will probably wait for the Overpass pick and analyze the opponent's game. In turn, the Danes do not have many options that can surprise the favorite.
Form Heroic
The second team of the world ranking recently reached the grand final of IEM Rio Major 2022, where they were declassed by Outsiders. And there, the team had problems that showed the inability to play the first number under pressure.
As for the performances at the group stage of BLAST Premier Fall Finals 2022, here Heroic managed to outplay Ninjas in Pajamas, and also lost to FaZe Clan and limited themselves to only the quarterfinals.
However, in the playoffs, the Danes managed to get past G2 Esports and Team Liquid. On the other hand, the team managed to lose on the map in both meetings, so it's definitely not necessary to talk about optimal conditions.
Heroic's latest results:
- Lost to the Outsiders with a score of 0:2.
- Victory over Ninjas in Pajamas with a score of 2:1.
- Defeated by FaZe Clan with a score of 0:2.
- Victory over G2 Esports with a score of 2:1.
- The victory over Team Liquid with a score of 2:1.
Best Heroic Maps:
- Nuke - 83% of wins.
- Ancient - 83% of wins.
- Vertigo - 64% of wins.
- Overpass - 58% of wins.
- Mirage - 55% of wins.
- Inferno - 53% of wins.
Let's not forget that the Danish team has been refusing the Dust 2 map for a long time.
FaZe Clan form
The eighth team of the world ranking, on the contrary, failed at the same IEM Rio Major 2022, where they suffered three shameful defeats from Cloud9, Vitality and Bad News Eagles.
Nevertheless, already at the group stage of BLAST Premier Fall Finals 2022, the European team showed some signs of life, getting good victories over OG and Heroic.
Well, in the semi-finals, FaZe Clan managed to beat Ninjas in Pajamas, although at some point the team risked burning out with a score of 0:2. However, this is the spice of the team, which over and over again catches a wave of luck and pulls out dead situations.
Latest FaZe Clan results:
- Defeat from Vitality with a score of 6:16.
- Lost to the Bad News Eagles 1:2.
- Victory over OG with a score of 2:0.
- Victory over Heroic with a score of 2:0.
- Victory over Ninjas in Pajamas with a score of 2:1.
Best FaZe Clan maps:
- Inferno - 86% of wins.
- Nuke - 76% of wins.
- Mirage - 67% of wins.
- Dust 2 - 50% win rate.
- Ancient - 50% win rate.
At the same time, the team usually does not play on the Vertigo map, but now is the time to think.
Heroic vs FaZe Clan match statistics
As part of the current season, the teams held four meetings:
- FaZe Clan's victory at IEM Katowice 2022 with a score of 2:0.
- FaZe Clan's victory at BLAST Premier Fall Groups 2022 with a score of 16:10.
- Heroic's victory at BLAST Premier Fall Groups 2022 with a score of 16:10.
- FaZe Clan's victory at BLAST Premier Fall Finals 2022 with a score of 2:0.
Let me remind you that in the last match the teams played on Ancient and Inferno maps.
Prediction for the match Heroic — FaZe Clan
I think that Heroic's hands are tied in this situation, since the opponent will obviously prepare for Overpass, and on Ancient, as the group stage showed, FaZe Clan still knows how to do something.
On the other hand, RobbaN's men have a huge advantage on the Mirage and Inferno maps, so the Danish team will have problems in terms of maps as well.
For Nuke, the situation is debatable, but it all depends on the start. In any case, I have fears for Heroic, as the team falls apart under pressure.
Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on the victory of the FaZe Clan team.
