OK, so here again, we have a match in Group B with a strange plot twist where NaVi is 6th in the group and two losses and -23 round difference. Maybe they have given up on this tournament, it is hard to stay numero uno when you have so many tournaments to attend and teams to clash against, it is very tiring, we can see that from Astralis, you can't stay 1st forever, but with carefull planning they can maintain it for a long time. I will go with forZe winning one map here.

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