FaZe expectedly entered the battle for a slot at the BLAST Autumn Finals. The team easily won their matches against Rare Atom and paIN Gaming, avoiding high-profile encounters along the way. After one more win, karrigan and company will guarantee their participation in a major tournament.
FaZe even in a slump reaches the playoffs, can even reincarnate in the toughest maps and make crazy gambles. The match against Team Liquid in Cologne will go down in history, although it is already a regular situation for karrigan's wards. FaZe already have a class, on which they pass the tier 2 and tier 3 opponents lightly, without putting much effort. At the same time FaZe is experiencing a slump on the tier-1 level, which was felt at IEM Cologne 2024. The team is tugging at the spot in top matches, and individual players are unable to hit from weapons and make impact. In Cologne in particular, everyone was disappointed with broky's play, because he was the one who could not be found on the servers.
FaZe takes a place in the top 10 of HLTV for a reason. The team has repeatedly made it to the autumn BLAST finals through groups, and this time it has a slightly different path. This team will be doubted, and time and time again they've returned to pedestals and qualify for top events. It's logical to imagine that OG won't be able to withstand that kind of pressure.
OG
The young European roster has once again made it to the Showdown finals. For some reason, OG has little success in these BLAST tournaments and always stops one step away from reaching the season finals. On its way it beat Heroic and AMKAL ESPORTS.
At the same time OG played at the closed qualifications for RMR Shanghai and in the last round lost a ticket in a match against Sashi Esports. This is a setback for the organisation and it can once again rotate the main roster. Individually, we can highlight the performance of MoDo and F1KU - they shot well at the RMR qualifiers, and at BLAST Premier: Fall Showdown 2024 they are among the top ten players of the tournament. Buzz acts as a stand-in and doesn't spoil the picture either, and he might get a slot in the core at the end of the August matches.
OG has been experimenting with young players for a while now, after the organisation said goodbye to degster, nexa and flameZ. It doesn't even participate in the Play-in for major tournaments, and appears at BLAST tournaments thanks to a partnership with a tournament operator. The team again achieved a good result in the Showdown, but once again will not play at the BLAST Autumn Finals.
Expert Betting Tips
FaZe always wins in such matches, but it rarely breaks away for a large number of rounds. But also OG can hardly catch up with the CS2 grandee at least for one map, though karrigan and company can be played full BO3. This is definitely a FaZe win, but how many rounds does it need to reach the BLAST autumn finals?
