Ok, so let's see what we have here, team BIG surprisingly is 5th with three matches played and two wins, they won 28 rounds and lost 12. HellRaisers have the same score with 55 won rounds and 48 lost. So the winner advances to playoffs, and you can bet your buck that both teams will do their best to win today. It is quite insane that team BIG is 9th in the world at the moment, but they won what they needed to win to achieve that. They took the chance when Cloud9 and MIBR were transitioning and performing bad, and prevailed against them, they won against Renegades and OpTic and gambit, FaZe and TyLoo, so yeah, they are playing pretty good.

My bet will go to team HellRaisers because they have more experience.

Good luck to all who bet and don't forget to gamble responsibly!
