The Iberian team had an unremarkable half of the year, and a similar start to the new one. From time to time KOI alternates between defeats against equal opponents in online tournaments and victories against similarly equal teams, but consistently does not jump above their heads.
At the qualification for the Shanghai RMR tournament an interesting and unexpected weakness of the team was revealed: Bo3-series. Even with opponents of their own level KOI is somehow more comfortable to take rather random matches up to one victory, but for the distance of two or three cards the Iberians do not have the strength. How to fight with the top teams in ESL Pro League Season 20 is unclear.
G2
Samurai are especially good in attack, where even m0NESY without a sniper rifle can realise aggressive options. The versatility of the Russian gives the team another T-side leader, thus allowing G2 to outplay the opponents' defence individually.
That said, the team did not achieve the expected high result at IEM Cologne 2024, mixing things up with rumours of NiKo's transfer to Falcons. It is unlikely that the Bosnian will leave the team before the Shanghai Major, so fans should not worry about the next tournaments.
Expert Betting Tips
Bookmakers consider this match as the most imbalanced on the first day of ESL Pro League Season 20. It was hard to find good odds, so only the outcomes in which G2 will leave no chance to the Iberian opponents will help us out. Whatever the Samurai's problems are right now, KOI is hardly capable of trapping such a top team.
