OK, so this is a qualifying tournament for a big ESL Pro League, and it is a great chance for the winning team to get recognized on the global scene. The winner here will play aganst the winner of Spirit vs Heretics, and that will be most probably team Spirit. The important thing to realise here is the fact that every team, despite their placement will get a prize, the first two teams will go to ESL Pro League Season 10, and the last two teams will go to MDL Season 32. The odds favor NiP but Sprout has much better performance for all maps. Looking at those map stats, damn i must admit that Spirit looks very favorable here, NiP lost so many games recently so i think that Spirit can make and upset here, despite their last game loss to Bpro, they managed to snatch 14, and 11 maps, and 15 against Winstrike, meaning they are on the good track, but they need just a Lil bit more focus.

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